A expert is required in expanding on the tradition; for the student or reader to make sense of it . Since my early teens years I have closely studied the teachings of Lao Tsu through textual learning and with several lineage Masters of the tradition. Some 30 years later now have the passion to share my knowledge through the internet for a new era. I offer everything freely without any requirements of the reader. I want this work on this website to stand on it's teachings alone; hence my pen name of Wen Tsu, does not matter who I am...but the validity of the teachings stand on their own.&amp;#160; My teachings are authentic and true as best as I have learned them. Your truth with this system will be based on testing it out and experiencing it. We hope you do!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" size="4"&gt;This journal will focus on the Wang Bi version of the Tao Teh Ching which is the most popular. Lao Tsu's text is written in a concise and elegant language of Classical Chinese, it is also one of the most difficult to translate without distorting the orginal thought though of Lao Tsu. This journal will show you clearly how the text is encoded.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000"&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" size="4"&gt;In my Tao Teh Ching section of the website the flow of writing follows many expansions on the revelations of Lao Tsu in English it is meant to be fresh, indepth and different from just reading a verbatim translation.&amp;#160; Either way there will be something for everyone here,&amp;#160; we hope you find value in this work.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" size="4"&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="center"&gt;&lt;font color="#000000" size="4"&gt;Wen Tsu&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&amp;#160; &amp;#160;&amp;#160; &amp;#160; &lt;/font&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
