Summary

The twentieth anniversary edition of William Martin’s free-verse interpretation of the Tao Te Ching, written expressly for those coming into the fullness of their wisdom

Lao Tzu’s Tao Te Ching reminds its readers that the sage has been venerated in China for thousands of years. Twenty years ago, William Martin subtly and powerfully captured the complex emotions connected with growing older in this free-verse interpretation of the Tao. His words resonate just as much now, encouraging today’s sages to recognize their inestimable worth in a youth-centric world that often goes astray: “If there is to be a transformation, it will be the sages among us who will show the way. The elders, the wisewomen, the shamans, the grandmothers, and the grandfathers will provide the guidance, for they have undergone the necessary initiations . . . and emerged into the spaciousness of simplicity, freedom, and joy.”

Author Biography

A graduate of the University of California, Berkeley and Western Theological Seminary, William Martin has studied the Tao for more than forty years. Having retired in 2019 from teaching tai chi, Zen, and meditation at The Still Point center in Chico, California, William Martin and his wife Nancy have embarked on living the remainder of their lives on the road.

Hank Tusinski lives in Tucson, AZ.
