One of my personal favorite books. If I were ever stranded anywhere this book would be with me. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ How to practice the Way of Lao Tzu *by M***T on June 17, 2016* The author is a long-time student of Master Ni Hua-Ching, arguably the most accomplished Taoist in the West. I have not read any of Solala Towler's other six books. This book uses Master Ni's translation of the Tao Te Ching, and I must assume that the practices associated with the 81 stanzas must have been transmitted to Solala from his primary teacher of Taoist arts. The timing of the release of this book is particularly interesting because another highly acclaimed teacher of Taoist arts, Bruce K. Frantzis, is about the do the same thing as the Ni and Towler team: provide a fresh translation of the Tao Te Ching and also provide a practitioner's guide to the text. Dr. Alan Peatfield and Bruce Frantzis have very recently made a new translation of the Tao Te Ching, and Bruce is in the process of producing detailed guidance on how one should practice the Tao Te Ching. Bruce received all this detailed guidance on the Tao Te Ching from his primary Taoist teacher, Taoist sage Liu Hung Chieh, who used to teach Bruce about the Tao Te Ching using the format, "This is what it says, this is what it means, and this is how you do it."The format used by Solala for the instruction for each stanza is: first the translation, then a commentary section, followed by the practice section.I have read about fifty of Master Ni's books, which provides me with extensive preparation to evaluate this book from that perspective. The commentary and practice sections are very well written. The author is clearly highly experienced in actually practicing the various approaches to Taoist "cultivation." The range of approaches to inner cultivation is impressive. Although the number is stanzas is great and one would expect a lot of repetition for each commentary and practice section, this is not the case. Kudos primarily to sage Lao Tzu, but also to highly achieved cultivators like Ni and his student. I recommend this book to beginners and advanced cultivators alike. The breadth and depth of what is taught provides plenty of valuable spiritual counsel for practitioners at any stage. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ journey *by B***R on November 11, 2024* I read a chapter a day. I also found Towler’s courses on Insight Timer app. I liked doing them together. ## Frequently Bought Together - Practicing the Tao Te Ching: 81 Steps on the Way - Tao Te Ching: A New English Version (Perennial Classics) - Lao Tzu: Tao Te Ching: A Book about the Way and the Power of the Way --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/34880579-practicing-the-tao-te-ching-81-steps-on-the-way](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/34880579-practicing-the-tao-te-ching-81-steps-on-the-way) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-05-06*
