I have the physical book, translated by Gia-Fu Feng & Jane English.

Every night, I read one new passage — then every morning, I read that same passage again.

Presuming you miss a few readings, you can then complete the entire Tao in less than three months (or: four times per year, cyclically).

This gives you time to digest each passage, be it in dreams or daytime. Nobody will ever fully understand these texts.

For my next read-through, I will paste Ursula's words alongside Ms. English's.

If you have not read The Dispossessed, this is a great intro to LaGuin's perspectiveS.

Does the book describes binary mathematics (via the ying and yang) and how it can be used to describe basically all complexity and complex interactions ? Have you read that bit? I heard Alan Watts mention it and I thought it was interesting.
