Common Sense. Uncommon Practice.
Knowing AND Living with the Tao Te Ching
1971 International Harvester once hauled belongings into an unfinished Kayser Ridge. Now it rests in the garden with a heart-shaped rock as its hood ornament—and feeders for hummingbirds. The old truck holds more than one season in view.
Have you ever understood something clearly, then heard yourself say the old thing anyway? A conversation may need another question, an apology, a boundary, action, or time. This book lives in those moments, where common sense becomes practice in a life shared with others.
In sixteen conversations with the Tao Te Ching, Cliff Kayser writes about learning to live what we know, and about the ways living can change what we thought we knew—in work, friendship, appetite, and responsibility. Each chapter pairs a complete interpretive Tao rendering with a brief personal reading and a free Just Tao It companion essay.
It is What It is offered a place to begin. What We See AND What We Carry asked what deserves our care. This book asks what we will practice in the next moment, and the ones just ahead.
Next in the series: Holding Power AND Sharing Power — Leading Yourself AND Others with the Tao Te Ching.
Common Sense. Uncommon Practice. is the third of four books in the Guided Tao Series. Book Four, Holding Power AND Sharing Power — Leading Yourself AND Others with the Tao Te Ching is currently in development!
