In "Tao" nimmt Osho die Zuhörer mit auf eine Reise in die Welt von Laotse, Zhuangzi, Liehzi und Koh Xuan – die Welt des Taoismus, einer der vier großen spirituellen Traditionen Chinas. Die 3000 Jahre alte taoistische Botschaft der Selbsterkenntnis wird lebendig, während Osho die Geschichten dieser chinesischen Mystiker erzählt. Im Gegensatz zur gängigen Vorstellung vom Taoismus, der einen eher gelassenen, dem Fluss des Lebens entsprechenden Lebens nahelegt, beschreibt Osho das Tao als ein Konzept von Freiheit, Anarchie und Chaos.

What if the secret to living freely wasn’t about striving for more—but about uncovering what’s already within you? In Ziran: The Tao of Natural Living, author Rick T. Fu introduces listeners to one of Taoism’s most profound yet overlooked ideas: ziran (自然).

For thousands of years, Taoist sages in China taught the wisdom of Wu Wei—“non-doing” or “effortless action.” At first glance, it sounds like passivity. But Wu Wei is not about doing nothing. It’s about doing in harmony with the flow of life, so your actions feel natural, unforced, and powerful. In Wu Wei, you’ll discover how this timeless idea can transform modern life. You’ll learn why forcing often backfires, how to step into flow more often, and how to move with the currents of work, relationships, creativity, and emotions instead of exhausting yourself fighting against them.

Fu introduces listeners to the ancient Chinese art of shan shui (山水—literally “mountain-water”) and shows how it offers a timeless blueprint for modern life. For centuries, Shan Shui was more than painting.

One that updates the ancient language to a more modern understanding, yet without touching the spirit of Lao Tzu’s timeless work, or altering his guidance towards working with the principles of the universe instead of against them.

Being in flow is when you are “in the zone,” “on your game,” or even “on fire.” It is both a mental state and a physical one. You have a feeling of complete focus, full involvement, and deep enjoyment in whatever you are doing. You feel the activity takes no energy from you—indeed you feel that it is giving you energy. You barely notice the passage of time. You feel calm but almost ecstatic. Most of us have glimpsed being in this state. But what if you could be in your zone not just for a moment of flow, nor merely for a day, but always and forever? This book shows you how.

Als die öffentlichen Zustände sich so verschlimmerten, dass keine Aussicht auf Herstellung der Ordnung mehr vorhanden war, soll Laotse sich zurückgezogen haben. Als er an den Grenzpass Han Gu gekommen sei, habe ihm der Grenzbeamte Yin Hi gebeten, ihm etwas Schriftliches zu hinterlassen.
