Wow, this is amazing, thank you. I have yet to read the Tao, so I will alternate and use this with the original to get a solid perspective. Be a good thing to reflect on in my journal I suppose

I would recommend The Tao of Yoda. It's a fascinating interpretation of the Tao Te Ching as Yoda would have written it. Interestingly enough it is probably one of the best translations of Chinese to English since Lao Tzu wrote it rather like how Yoda would say it

This is awesome! I have read some taoism and the Jedi conception of the Force is very similar. I cant wait to read through this!

Thanks for this. It gives me a good insight into what being a Jedi is all about, and it's challenged me and my thinking in many aspects.

I'll be thinking of it a lot in the coming days.

This is Awesome! Great Work! I'm currently reading the Stephen Mitchell translation along side with The Tao of Yoda. Your Jedi interpretation will make a nice addition to my Tao Te Ching readings. Thank You very much.

I think we should bring this back... after reading the short form on Stu's journal. Another round of applause. I'm gonna take this with me to Paris. Thanks!
