The Divine Feminine Tao Te Ching:

Author Rosemarie Anderson reveals the feminine nature of the Tao as depicted in the Tao Te Ching as “mother,” “virgin,” and the “womb of creation.” She then discloses how Tao’s message of wei wu wei—“act without acting” and “do without doing”—offers a path of peace and well-being for ourselves and for our relations with the earth and one another, a path that arises from spontaneous action that seeks no gain for the self. This new translation, commentaries, and illustrations of Chinese calligraphy shed new light on the esoteric wisdom contained within the Tao Te Ching and on the mystical feminine essence of the Tao.
