The Tao At The Movies

Name: The Tao At The Movies
Uploaded: 2020-08-27T19:30:58.000Z
Duration: 13 min 32 s
Channel: Shawn McGuirk
Description: The Tao Te Ching was written by Lao-tze over 2500 years ago. It translates to "the way" and can be thought of as a spiritual way of life with a reminder that "less is more". This talk will offer insight into what the "Tao" is, and how it can be found and understood through various popular (and maybe not so popular) movies within the last 30 years (or at least, that's my opinion).
