500 years before the birth of Jesus, a God realized being named Loutzu, in ancient China, dictated 81 verses, which are regarded by many as the ultimate commentary on the nature of our existence.

This classic text of these verses called the Dow Daqing, or the Great Way, offers advice and guidance that is balanced, moral, spiritual, and always concerned with working for the good.

I have reviewed hundreds of translations of the Dow Daqing. In this book, I have written 81 distinct essays on how to apply the ancient wisdom of Loutzu to today's modern world.

This work contains all 81 verses of the Dow, compiled from my researching of 10 of the most well-respected translations of this text, which has survived for more than 25 centuries.

Each of the 81 chapters is designed for actually living the Dow, or the Great Way, today, and concludes with a section called Do the Dow Now.

I spent an entire year reading, researching, and meditating on Loutzu's messages, practicing them each day, and ultimately writing down these insights as I felt Loutzu wanted you to know them.

This is a work to be read slowly, one verse a day. As I say, this is a book that will forever change the way you look at your life, and the result will be that you'll live in a new world aligned with nature, writing this book changed me forever.

I now live in a court with a natural world and feel the greatest sense of peace I've ever experienced. I'm so proud to present this interpretation of the Dow Daqing and offer you the same opportunity for change that it has brought to me.

Change your thoughts, change your life, living the wisdom of the Dow Daqing.

Preface. Progress is important without change, and those who cannot change their minds cannot change anything. George Bernard Shaw.

Change your thoughts, change your life. Is the end product of my year-long journey of research, contemplation, and application of the Dow Daqing, a book of wisdom that's been translated more than any volume in the world with the exception of the Bible.

Many scholars consider this Chinese classic the ultimate discourse on the nature of existence, and it continues to be a valuable resource for achieving a way of life that guarantees integrity, joy, peace, and balance.

I recently read about someone who overcame life threatening addictive behaviors by reading and rereading the 81 verses of this ancient text.

Just imagine, in fewer than 100 short pages, it describes a way of living that's balanced, moral, and spiritual, and that works for all facets of life on Earth.
