Early Autumn - Apple and Cinnamon

New VapeSafe Early Autumn eLiquid.

Early Autumn - Apples and Cinnamon flavored eLiquid evokes memories of the beginning of fall. The feel of the warm autumn sun on the skin. The sight of vibrant hues of amber and crimson leaves hanging in gently swaying trees soaking up the light. The rustling sound of the breeze slipping through the tree branches tugging and teasing the remaining leaves into releasing their hold and floating downward. The laughing children raking the leaves into piles and then running and jumping into the soft, luscious piles scattering the leaves again. The delicious smells of baking apple and cinnamon pies wafting through open windows. These are the sights, smells and tastes of Early Autumn.

Early Autumn eLiquid by VapeSafe captures the essence of Autumn no matter what season it is. Early Autumn eLiquid is flavorful combination of apples and cinnamon. As with all of the VapeSafe eLiquids, our mixtures are designed to produce nice, heavy vapors and the most succulent flavors. Try Early Autumn eLiquid today!

Summary: "Clearest Version"

Having read dozens of translations I have to say I agree with those in the clarity over scholarship camp. As a Tai Chi practitioner, I'm extremely interested in the Taoist classics, and how they inform us on a practical level. Steven's rendering, while admittedly not a direct translation, does a brilliant job of making the obscure understandable to modern readers, especially westerners. I've read plenty of direct translations, and they've all left me a little cold. This book is a gem!

Summary: ""Tao Te Ching" & "I Ching" were found to be commentaries to "Shan Hai Jing"!"

Scientists discovered that each person is a bio-machine with an individual program (or "software"). All human programs are recorded in an ancien Chinese manuscript called "Shan Hai Jing" ("Collection of the Mountains and Seas"). It was also discovered that "I Ching" and "Tao Te Ching" are commentaries to "Shan Hai Jing".

Summary: "Instant Results"

I had been on a path using Buddhism (namely the culture-stripped, "brass tacks" version from Steve Hagan, which I love) for about five years. In that time, I had made a point of daily practice, in traffic jams, at work, etc...anywhere really. And it was beneficial. Then recently "Tao" kept popping up in my mind: I had heard about Tao-this and Tao-of-that and wanted to read Tao Te Ching.

This translation knocked my practice of be-in-this-very-moment/just-see espoused by Hagan *out of the park.* It represented a quantum leap - or five - in practice of these principles. It carried with it a new set of instant results (the very best kind) that I also got - for example - from "The Power of Now" by Eckhart Tolle.

I studied this translation alongside the Gia-Fu Feng/Jane English translation, another one which is really good but that retains a fair amount of the attempts to juggle ancient Chinese idioms into English, which I think is not always helpful insofar as "conveying the true spirit of the message" is concerned. The mark of a helpful book is one that improves a person in actual fact. This one does that.

Extraordinary and helpful that he brings his Zen understandings to the text. Extremely helpful to my daily life.

Thank you, Stephen.

Summary: "Majesty"

Tao Te Ching Stephen Mitchell

Subtle contradictions of thought that neutralize each other.

A centering of the ball, so to speak like a ball in a turn and slip indicator in a light aircraft.

Step on the ball left or right bringing it to center, irregardless.

Tao: calming, contemplative, restfull bits of information providing a majesty available for us all.
