In 81 short chapters the author exposes the very extract of his insights. He understands being as way of the Tao... Right in the beginning he has words on the Tao leading into bafflement.
To say it straigt - you can`t solve Laotse`s sentences simply by reason and thinking. Laotse`s style is touching your feelings and inner sense of touch - there you will get it somehow.
