(Conceived of as) having no name, it is the Originator of heaven and earth; (conceived of as) having a name, it is the Mother of all things.
Always without desire we must be found,
If its deep mystery we would sound;
But if desire always within us be,
Its outer fringe...

The book Tao Te King is divided into two parts. The first part deals with Tao: which, meaning Unity, also means path, way, meaning. The second part refers to Te: efficacy, a way of agreeing, of attuning, and which is usually translated as "virtue", but in the sense that this word has in classical pre-Christian Latin: "strength".

Description
The Dao De Jing exists on the border between poetry and philosophy, embracing both mythos and logos. Its poetic form can stand alone, but it is enriched when its timeless ideas are analyzed and explained through careful scholarship. For example: "He who knows others is knowledgeable. He who knows himself is wise." These words resemble Socrates' account of his own quest in Plato's Apology. Ancient philosophy, both in China and in Greece, places self-knowledge...
