Now, in A Thousand Names for Joy, she encourages us to discover the freedom that lives on the other side of inquiry.Stephen Mitchell-the renowned translator of the Tao Te Ching-selected provocative excerpts from that ancient text as a stimulus for Katie to talk about the most essential issues that face us all: life and death, good and evil, love, work, and fulfillment. The result is a book that allows the timeless insights of the Tao Te Ching to resonate anew for us today, while offering a vivid and illuminating glimpse into the life of someone who for twenty years-ever since she woke up to reality one morning in 1986-has been living what Lao-tzu wrote more than 2,500 years ago.Katies profound, lighthearted wisdom is not theoretical; it is absolutely authentic. That is what makes this book so compelling. Its a portrait of a woman who is imperturbably joyous, whether she is dancing with her infant granddaughter or finds that her house has been emptied out by burglars, whether she stands before a man about to kill her or embarks on the adventure of walking to the kitchen, whether she learns that she is going blind, flunks a How Good a Lover Are You? test, or is diagnosed with cancer. With her stories of total ease in all circumstances, Katie does more than describe the awakened mind; she lets you see it, feel it, in action. And she shows you how that mind is yours as well.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52235202920736,"sku":"NEW0307339238","price":23.02,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/71A5EPgT3mL.jpg?v=1787459795","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/a-thousand-names-for-joy-living-in-harmony-with-the-way-things-are-0307339238","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
