Tao of the Ancestors: Way and Wisdom Original Peoples, Eighty-One Verses for Path Truth.

The Tao of the Ancestors maps the structural convergences between Lao Tzu and the world's indigenous traditions. It draws from recorded oral traditions, documented speeches, ethnographic records, and published oral history collections. The text reveals how the oldest voices and the most ancient written wisdom have been describing the same territory all along. These indigenous traditions represent some of the most sustained and sophisticated observations about the nature of reality ever recorded by human beings. They were generated by communities that had no choice but to be accurate to survive. When that description aligns, verse by verse, with the accumulated wisdom of the Tao Te Ching, the alignment is the evidence. This book does not ask you to choose between these traditions or to collapse them into a single teaching. It asks you to notice that they are all describing the exact same territory and to let that recognition do its work in you.
