Reading the Tao Te Ching right now. Kind of disappointed. Any advice for how to approach/appreciate it?
-
@KevinSimler a) Read CC Tsai's manhua version. b) Read Crowley's translation for trolly goodness c) Recognize it's a manual of statesmanship
@St_Rev (c) might be the piece I'm missing. I was reading it for personal/spiritual wisdom (not even sure what that means)

@KevinSimler It's so short and so enigmatic that you can impose almost any reading you want on it. -
@KevinSimler Charitably, it's a text of aphorisms about wise action and wise inaction, so applicable to many things.
