Lao-Tzu'S Shoe: A Present-Day Teenager Confronts The Big Timeless Questions.

Lao-Tzu's Shoe follows a series of lively discussions between a spiritual father and his atheistic son, deeply examining the big timeless issues in life we all struggle with. Direct questions flow from the teenager's many areas of simmering modern existential angst. The father is mainly trying to convince his teenage son about the internal realities of the spirit that we all form within ourselves, regardless of the existence of God or not; and he tries to show his son how to live a fuller and richer life than one just centered on scientific materialism. The focus of this book is broad and deep, and the author is a also name dropper. Some of these names are Socrates, Lao-Tzu, Mozart, Archimedes, Jesus, Einstein, Abraham, Giordano Bruno, Thomas Cole, Rudyard Kipling, Spencer Tracy, August Kekul?, Shiva, Huang Po, King C. Gillette, Copernicus, Gautama Buddha, Elias Howe, Darwin, Alexander Fleming, Hakuin Ekaku, Buckminster Fuller, and others are all artfully woven into the fabric of this work. As a sea change is happening to people's beliefs, many are disillusioned by the dogma of established religions. They are hungry for positively focused well reasoned discussions of the big questions in life and are searching for clear new ideas about how to live a spiritual life without resorting to the miraculous and supernatural, or the dry psychological approach. "Lao-Tzu's Shoe" is offered as a useful guidebook for this essential inner journey. The text is highly illustrated, with many helpful educational images reflecting the books content. It also contains selected lithographs, pen and inks, and drawings of original fine artworks by the author.
