It took me 6 years just to finish my book, finally finished the film!
Loren reading her TAO book on the NYC Subway
I am a TAOIST. I live by Wu Wei. This book and film were NOT MY IDEA! The mystical story of how this Herculean book and film were born are in my book and in my documentary. I go with the flow of life like Wu Wei, and thus my book and documentary were born.
I have several of my favorite Tao quotes in my book amongst others. I always lived by Taoist principals but never gave my ways of life a name until my sister gave me this book! The Tao Te Ching was written by Lau Tzu centuries ago. Life's principles don't change. The message is to be good to each other and that we humans are ONE with Mother Earth. We must respect Mother earth to be alive. There are only 81 verses in Lau Tzu's book but powerful and full of peace. Always with a positive slant.
My documentary ends with " A journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step." (Tao 64)
Diane Dreher is the author of "The Tao of Inner Peace". This wonderful book I am reading here. Als
The documentary is finally finished in 2022!
