This just came out- and coincidentally this thread was recently commented on so I thought I might add this here-

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFb7Hxva5rg&list=PLwxNMb28XmpdJpJzF2YRBnfmOva0HE0ZI&index=1

I think it might serve well as an introduction to Daoism and Lao Tzu,

Enjoy! :)

Focus
Focus your mind away from sensual input to discover a new depth of perception. You will then learn to perceive the more subtle, hidden things in your world as the sage does. - Lao Fzu

Guide
Many make an endless and fruitless pursuit to find the right guide to help them on their path. The sage looks within knowing that in the end the only guide we can rely on is own intuition. - Lao Fzu

LIV :

Tao's power is so deeply entrenched
it can never be uprooted.
Tao's power clings so tightly
it can never slip away.
It will endure for generations.

If you get in touch
with the power of Tao,
it will become real.
If your family gets in touch
with the power of Tao,
the power will flourish.

If your community gets in touch
with the power of Tao,
the power will grow even stronger.
If your country gets in touch
with the power of Tao,
the power will become abundant.

If the world gets in touch
with the power of Tao,
the power will be everywhere.

How can I know this?
I just do.

Lessons
Everyone you meet whether wise or foolish, has something to teach you. The sage appreciates everyone and everything, accepting the lessons offered by each in their own way. - Lao Fzu
