Liezi (列子 c.450-375BC), Laozi and Zhuangzi are the 3 pillars of philosophical Daoism.
A lesser known philosopher among the trio, we have seen few translations of his work.
The Liezi text of 139 short amusing stories in 8 chapters, are contemplative on life and death.
Tales, Kuafu Chased Sun and Yukong Moved Mountains are often taught in primary school.
Liezi favors enjoying life, fear not death; rejects transcendentals like 'riding on wind'.
His stories are vivid, full of marvels, often humorous, and reflective of our Delusions.
Liezi: World of Delusions includes: The full 8 chapters in Chinese Text and English Translation.
