    Synopsis

    Written around 500 B.C., the 'Tao Teh Ching' is one of the most frequently translated and most cherished works in the world. 'The Complete Works of Lao Tzu' by Hua-Ching Ni is a remarkable elucidation of the famed 'Tao Teh Ching', the core of Taoist philosophy and a bridge to the subtle truth as well as a practical guideline for natural and harmonious living. Poetic and beautifully realized, this volumn contains one of the only written translations of the 'Hua Hu Ching.'

    Biography

    Hua-Ching Ni, author, teacher and healer, addresses the essential nature of human life and works to further the personal growth and spiritual development of this and future generations. Raised in a long family tradition of healing and spirituality, Hua-Ching Ni spent his youth learning from highly-achieved masters in the mountains of China. He is the beneficiary of a broad spiritual tradition passed down since the golden age of China and is the author of over 40 books on Taoism, natural healing and spirituality.

    A Lost Classicby Chuji

    October 27, 2009: This version of the Hua Hu is outstanding. Do not expect a word for word translation. Rather this is a translation into modern English that can be understood. There are portions which may appear arcane or esoteric to beginners in this area but that is the nature of the material and not the fault of the translation.

    For serious students of Taoism I would consider this a must.

    The Gems of Taoist Philosophyby Anonymous

    February 19, 2001: Many are familiar with the Chinese classic 'The Tao Teh Ching.' Many are unaware that Lao Tzu also wrote the 'Hua Hu Ching'. It was banned and almost destroyed in the 14th century during a time of political turmoil and religious persecution. Both books are now available in one volume. These translations are a lucid and penetrating insight into the spiritual wisdom of ancient China. Any serious student of eastern thought knows that Taoism and the 'Tao Teh Ching' had its influence on Buddhism which is how Zen Buddhism flowered into being. But many are unaware of the influence the 'Hua Hu Ching' has had on Mahayana Buddhism. I have found this book and its teachings as important as the Bhagavad-Gita and The Tibetan Book of the Dead. This book is especially valuable because it brings the formerly lost 'Hua Hu Ching' into the English speaking world. A perfect addition for the library of anyone interested in eastern thought or comparative religion.
