Meow Te Ching by Michael Kent Pdf

Meow Te Ching features more than 200 proverbs on everything from philosophy and mysticism ("Do not blame God for creating dogs, but thank him for not giving them wings") to romance ("No road seems long when a cat goes to meet his lover"). And such seemingly familiar axioms as: o "Give me liberty or give me my next life." o "The early cat catches the early bird." o "You can't have your mouse and eat it too." According to the book's introduction, Meow Tzu, whose teachings are presented in Meow Te Ching, is probably the most famous cat to have ever lived; yet most humans know little about him. Cats have kept his name a secret, waiting for the darkest hour, when most people are asleep, to pass on his wisdom from generation to generation. Recently, however, archaeological digs near the Dead Sea, Machu Picchu, and Tibet have unearthed a number of manuscripts, notes taken by disciples of the venerable Meow. These ancient manuscripts reveal a cat with remarkable insight into feline nature. In addition, the sayings in Meow Te Ching give people the opportunity to learn a thing or two about themselves.

The Tao of Meow by Waldo JaPussy,Carl Japikse Pdf

In the few years since The Tao of Meow was first published, Waldo Japussy has become a cult figure, receiving fan mail not only from other cats but from human beings as well! His book has gone through 18 printings and is still gaining momentum! The Tao of Meow is an original philosophic statement by Waldo, who was the eldest cat in the household of Rose and Carl Japikse. Carl was about to throw away papers that had been "ruined" by Waldo walking on them, when he realized that the paw prints formed a coherent pattern. Carl sat down to try to make sense of Waldo's "writings." Months later, he had deciphered the text of a poem that rivaled in beauty and content Lao Tzu's ancient verses, the Tao Te Ching -- from a cat's purrspective.

This guide provides an overview of the text, presenting its historical unfolding, its major concepts, and its contemporary use. It also gives some indication of its essence by citing relevant passages and linking them to the religious practices of traditional Daoism.
