Applying Ancient Taoist Wisdom To Modern Life
Cultivate balance, clarity, and spiritual growth:
At California Tao, we empower modern-day warriors—leaders, founders, parents, and seekers—to cultivate deep self-understanding through authentic Taoist teachings. By merging ancient wisdom with practical techniques for stress management, leadership, and personal growth, we help individuals navigate life’s challenges with humility, resilience, and grace. More than just how you lead, we focus on who you are as you lead, ensuring integrity in every step—like water flowing around a rock—while redefining the warrior’s path as an inward journey toward self-awareness.
Master Arthur’s Journey
Ordination & Recognition
In 2016, Master Arthur was ordained by the High Priestess of the Qingcheng Mountain Taoist Temple in China—the world’s oldest continuously operated Taoist temple. This sacred lineage connects our community to an authentic tradition spanning centuries.
Journey & Background
Born in Ukraine and raised in Boston, Arthur Levitan embraced a strong work ethic and the Western pursuit of success. As a serial entrepreneur and CEO, he built multiple companies, one generating $100M in annual revenue and featured as a Harvard Business School case study. Yet, despite professional achievements, he found material wealth unfulfilling, leading him to seek deeper meaning through Eastern philosophy and martial arts. After decades of study, Taoism found him, culminating in his ordination as a Taoist Master. Since then, he has guided thousands—from CEOs to seekers—in cultivating resilience, clarity, and inner peace.
Quantum Tao
In 2009, Master Arthur founded Quantum Tao, integrating ancient Taoist wisdom with modern applications. His teachings focus on Qi Gong, visualization-based meditation, and practical Taoist principles for navigating challenges with minimal stress. Drawing from his unique blend of business acumen and spiritual mastery, he helps individuals and teams develop sustainable leadership and personal growth strategies. He is also the author of Outlast, a guide on mastering internal energy in times of crisis.
Our Approach
We teach a blend of traditional Taoist techniques (like Qi Gong, meditation, and philosophy “Tao te Ching”) and modern leadership/entrepreneurial frameworks. Our approach is inclusive, non-dogmatic, and grounded in real-world application. Whether you’re looking to reduce stress, evolve your leadership style, or explore a deeper spiritual path, our programs meet you where you are.
