The Inner Life and the Tao Teh King is a book written by C. H. A. Bjerregaard that explores the ancient Chinese philosophy of Taoism through the lens of the Tao Teh King, a foundational text of Taoist thought. Bjerregaard delves into the concepts of the Tao, or the Way, and the Te, or Virtue, and how they relate to the inner life of the individual. The book also discusses the concept of Wu Wei, or non-action, and its importance in achieving harmony with the natural world. Bjerregaard draws on his own experiences and insights to provide a modern interpretation of the Tao Teh King, making the text accessible to contemporary readers. Overall, The Inner Life and the Tao Teh King offers a unique perspective on Taoist philosophy and its relevance to personal growth and spiritual development.Originally lectures, this volume attempts to give direction to a mystic interpretation of the Tao Teh King in the light of mysticism.
