It is also one of the true classics of the world of spiritual literature. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eTraditionally attributed to the near-legendary \"Old Master,\" Lao Tzu, the \u003ci\u003eTao Teh Ching \u003c\/i\u003e teaches that the qualities of the enlightened sage or ideal ruler are identical with those of the perfected individual. Today, Lao Tzu's words are as useful in mastering the arts of leadership in business and politics as they are in developing a sense of balance and harmony in everyday life. To follow the Tao or Way of all things and realize their true nature is to embdy humility, spontaneity, and generosity. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eJohn C. H.
