The Chuang-TZu is the second major text of the Taoist tradition. It was compiled in the third century bce and follows the lead of the best-known and oldest of all Taoist texts. Representing the philosophy of its main author, Chuang Chou, along with several other early Taoist strands, the text has inspired spiritual seekers for over two thousand years.  In this special edition, leading Taoist scholar Livia Kohn, PhD, provides a fresh and modern translation of key selections from this timeless text to open up classic Taoist beliefs and practices for todays reader. She provides insightful, accessible commentary that highlights the Chuang-tzus call to reject artificially imposed boundaries and distinctions, and illustrates how you can live a more balanced, authentic and joyful life, at ease and in perfect happiness, by following Taoist principles.
