Hitherto, little is known of this great Chinese sage; we know
hardly anything about his life and work.
In the book, “Lao-Tse”, the personality of this leader of
mankind on their path to the Light takes on form and shape.
It was not fantasy that guided the pen, but genuine vision
and recognition. Since nothing that was once a living happening
is lost in Creation, he who is called for the purpose is able
to record it. The time is ripe for us to grasp this and to
recognize the connections right up to the closing of the cycle
in the present time.
The outward happening in the life of Lao-Tse from his earliest
years is clearly and simply portrayed. Under the care of Lie-Tse
the High Lama, the studious boy enjoys a happy childhood.
As Lie-Tse's companion through many provinces of the Chinese
Empire, he gathers experiences in daily life in his association
with people; he discovers their distortions, the vices of
the big cities, and the erroneous teachings of idolatry.
