"O Caminho que pode ser trilhado não é o Tao Eterno.
O nome não é o mesmo que Aquilo que foi nomeado"

Os primeiros versos do Tao Te Ching podem soar tão enigmáticos como quaisquer outros ao longo da obra. Tal enigma, entretanto, é apenas intelectual. Com um pouco de reflexão, ele começa a se dissipar como a névoa soprada pelo vento. É precisamente nesta “dissipação” que se inicia o Caminho Perfeito.

Este livro, afinal, é somente o seu esboço. Conforme disse Joseph Campbell em O poder do mito: “As melhores coisas não podem ser ditas por que transcendem o pensamento. As coisas um pouco piores são mal compreendidas, porque são os pensamentos que supostamente se referem àquilo a respeito de que não se pode pensar. Logo abaixo dessas, vêm as coisas das quais falamos”. Eis porque este livro é somente um esboço. Eis porque o nome não é o mesmo que Aquilo que foi nomeado. Eis porque de nada adianta ler o Tao Te Ching apenas com o intelecto, é preciso senti-lo com a alma, é preciso refletir sobre suas palavras e descasca-las, alcançando o sentimento que há por detrás – o sentimento que está, afinal, em nosso próprio ser.

As palavras deste livro são apenas as catalisadoras do Caminho. Elas apontam uma direção e uma via antes desconhecida. Cabe somente a nós iniciar o passo.

O tradutor.

***

Nesta tradução exclusiva do Tao Te Ching a partir da tradução clássica de James Legge para o inglês, Rafael Arrais (poeta, escritor, editor e autor do blog Textos para Reflexão) usa do auxílio precioso das interpretações do ocultista britânico Aleister Crowley e do filósofo brasileiro Murillo Nunes de Azevedo para compor uma visão moderna da antiga sabedoria de Lao Tse. Não se trata de uma tradução para os que adoram ao Tao como numa religião organizada, mas antes para os que o amam e desejam seguir no Caminho Perfeito; ou ainda, para aqueles que nunca ouviram falar dele...

About the Author

Gordon F. Holbein, Ph.D. is a Senior Lecturer in Strategy & Leadership at the Gatton College of Business and Economics at the University of Kentucky. He was born and raised near Syracuse, NY, and went to school in New Hampshire, New York and Pennsylvania, but much prefers Kentucky’s milder climate! Gordon’s education includes a Bachelor of Arts in Geography from Dartmouth College, an M.B.A. from Syracuse University, and a Ph.D. in Strategy and Leadership from The Pennsylvania State University. He has twelve years of work experience in bank management in New York, predominantly in branch management, product management and strategic planning. His consulting experience extends across organizations in the automotive, healthcare, financial services and technology industries, and he has worked with a variety of not-for-profit organizations as well. Dr. Holbein’s academic career spans more than twenty-five years of university teaching at UK, Penn State, Syracuse University, and Northern Kentucky University. His main areas of expertise are Strategic Management, Leadership Development, Corporate Social Responsibility, and Global Management. Professor Holbein left the ranks of the University of Kentucky’s research faculty in order to pursue a full-time teaching career in 2000, and was promoted to Senior Lecturer in 2007. He teaches in UK’s undergraduate, graduate and executive education programs. Dr. Holbein has been recognized by the University of Kentucky’s College of Education as a “Teacher Who Made A Difference” on three occasions, has been cited for excellence in teaching by Beta Gamma Sigma Honor Society, Alpha Kappa Psi professional business fraternity and the UK Panhellenic Council, and in 2012 was named UK’s best professor in the Kentucky Kernel’s “Best Of UK” awards. He has also been awarded the Humana Corporation Teaching Innovation Grant three times. Gordon has been a featured speaker for the Emerging Leader Institute, the University of Kentucky Student Activities Board’s “Final Word” symposium, and in the Delta Epsilon Iota Honor Society’s guest lecturer series.
