Liber Tao

A famous Poet once commented, "good artists borrow, great ones steal." With this book my intention has been to split the difference between borrowing and theft with what I believe is the more genteel act of homage. My inspiration for this effort has been an ancient masterpiece of Chinese Mysticism known to posterity as The Tao-Te-Ching or The Book of the Virtuous Way. Imitating the basic format and style of the original Tao-Te-Ching, this current volume entitled Liber Tao (Liber is Latin for "book" and Tao is Chinese for "The Way") is a collection of 81 short poems that explore the subtle connections between consciousness, mind, and reality. A well-known proverb states, "Give a person a fish and you will feed their hunger, teach them to fish and they will be able to feed themselves." In a similar vein this book is not about answers, but instead introduces some perspectives worth thinking about for anyone who is interested in their Spiritual Evolution.
