To preface, I translated the Tao Te Ching, using the six existing manuscripts. This app does not contain a translation of the Tao Te Ching. The poems, as I refer to them, are recklessly and severely truncated. A translation is as good as the paradigm of the translator. A translation may not reflect the manuscripts. This suggests that the translator has not done due diligence. Tools to translate it: the six existing manuscripts and the MDBG Chinese dictionary. I also used Zhongwen.
Could use some touch-up on the translation and visual design, but overall a good, simple, non-confusing app.
After a quick scan this app is amazing!!! I can tell the writer did it from the soul ๐ Download it you will be happy beyond belief!!! Thank you Mr or Ms Developer for putting so much effort and attention to this application. This will help me find the way... ๐
I have several apps that teach the Tao. Their interpretations frustrate me because I can't make heads or tails of their meanings. This app is pure gold. I can finally understand what the Tao teaches.
It's the tao te ching, for free in a easy to read app that takes up little space in your phone what's not to like?
Nice clean translation. Too bad, can't share. Maybe in a future edition.
When I read to the end, I realize that I was following an eternal loop of Tao and Te, that reflexes part of true spirit of this remarkable classic!
This translation is incredible, It feels alive!
I have been a Tai Chi practitioner for 26 years. The Tao Te Ching is the underlying philosophy behind this art. This is a very good interpretation of Lao Tzu's treatise.
This is not an accurate translation of the Tao Te Ching. How dare you play with our sacred texts. What is your motive?
This is NOT the "Tao Te Ching"... This is "Selections FROM the 'Tao Te Ching'."
This version has the true spirit of the Tao! Evolving and growing, the way the Tao Te Ching should be.
I have gained wisdom and knowledge from this app.
The perfect way to live. A Bible for all times
Thank you for this app!
Be Impartial. Use whatever life sends.
Naming is the beginning of ten thousand things, the real Tao has no name. Thank you.
No publishing info, no translator given, no search function.
Don't normally rate apps, but I am very pleased with this translation of the Tao Te Ching. I've been a Tao enthusiast for over a decade now and my most used version is the translation by Stephen Mitchell. This app's translation is very comparable to his and the format is very simple... Just a nice scroll and nothing fancy. Just what I wanted for my phone. No ads either, which is always appreciated. Thanks so much for making this available!
