About this listen

Taoist living rests on four pillars: the public, the domestic, the private, and the spirit lives. Not only do Taoists strive to live these four aspects fully and in a balanced way, they also believe there is an outlook and an art to each of them. Eva Wong uses the teachings of Taoist masters themselves to explain the essential concepts. She then gives voice to these texts - simplifying them, removing barriers to understanding, and making them completely accessible and relevant to the modern reader. Wong is a clear and enthusiastic guide to this intriguing spiritual way, and she challenges us to stop, reflect, and ask ourselves: Do we balance the public, domestic, private, and spirit aspects of our lives, or do we emphasize some at the expense of the others? How can we think about unifying worldly and spiritual wisdom in day-to-day living?

Well written and performed. Taoism is deep and complex and this unique style of communicating this message I found really interesting.

Unique way to get over a complex message

Eva is clearly a very accomplished Taoist scholar, but her books are painfully slow, stale and quite frankly boring.

I feel like she’s constantly reading the menu for an incredible meal, who made it, how it was made, where was sourced, blah blah blah and never ever gets to eating it!!!

Please change your writing style 😫

Please get on with it !!!!

Too interested in the folk science rather than philosophy to be something I want to reflect on

Not what I was looking for
