The Sayings of Lao Tzu
ISBN: 9781604593020 / Angielski / Miękka / 48 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Only one who is eternally free from earthly passions can apprehend its spiritual essence; he who is ever clogged by passions can see no more than its outer form. These two things, the spiritual and the material, though we call them by different names, in their origin are one and the same. This sameness is a mystery, -the mystery of mysteries. It is the gate of all...
