The Tradition of Natural Taoism
The Way of Free and Easy Wandering in Oneness

Quotes

“Jason opens the Tao and shows us how spirituality can be found by wandering in the natural world. Supporting his points with references to the Tao Te Ching and the Chuang-tzu texts, he shows us how to escape the socialization and distractions of our times to realize our true natures.”

“This is a wonderful summation of Taoist philosophy. Jason Gregory presents this cosmology clearly, concisely, and with great depth of understanding. If you want to gain a fuller understanding of commonly used terms such as the void, yin and yang, and nonduality, this book is for you.”

“In this profound work, Jason Gregory warns us about the mass trivialization of Taoism. This book gives deep clarity to those who are called to flow effortlessly in the primordial river of Tao but find themselves perpetually obstructed by their deeply rooted habits of self-preservation. The time-honored virtues of humility, simplicity, and non-striving are elucidated brilliantly by the author, who offers the modern mind a possibility of venturing on the path of nonbecoming. In our increasingly social world, the naked simplicity of The Way is not easy to follow, and this book is the much-needed guide that bridges this gap of understanding and allows the reader to embrace the natural naturalness that is Tao.”

“This book is an astonishing piece of work and one that is essential for anybody wishing a deeper understanding of not just Taoism but also Eastern philosophy in general. It introduces the reader to the explanatory power of this most fascinating of belief systems and places it within a precise context. It demands concentration and focus from the reader, but in doing so it gives great rewards. An absolutely essential read, and one destined to become a classic of its kind.”

“An interestingly complex yet simple book. It invites you to use your left brain for meaning and structure and your right brain, heart, and body to recognize the simple truths you see all around you in nature—and align with them for greater harmony—without great willpower or effort. It is certainly time we make life less confusing and distracting and settle into the calm center that we can recognize as Self, Truth, and Compassion. Jason has written many clarifying and inspiring books, and this one is a real wakeup call!”

“Even though it is said that ‘the Tao that can be spoken is not the true Tao,’ Jason Gregory’s words on Taoism lead us back to a felt awakening of our true nature. We are the Tao we seek, the flowing reality of our body’s life. We just need to pare away what keeps us from connecting so deeply with the felt river of life that’s here all the time. The Tradition of Natural Taoism shows us how to let go of what is superficial so we can engage once again with that which we are and always have been.”

“This book provides the reader with a different perspective and a deeper understanding of the Tao (Dao) and Taoist texts. If you are interested in Tao, it is a profound reference book for your study.”
