Lao Tzu 
Tao Te Ching 

The Tao Te Ching is a series of meditations on the mysterious nature of the Tao–the Way, the guiding light, the very source of all existence. According to Lao Tzu (a name meaning ’the old master’), the Tao is found where we would least expect it–not in the strong but in the weak; not in speech but in silence; not in doing but in ’not-doing.’
