Book Reviews of Hua Hu Ching: Unknown Teachings of Lao Tzu, The
Book Review: Maybe a hoax
Summary: 1 Stars
I was lent a copy of this text to seek out texts for me to set as part of a commission (I'm a composer). I came up with something and then started reading the text very closely for how the text was credited, so I could cite it properly, and I realized that Brian Browne Walker does not actually say whether he translated this text or invented it; in fact the process he describes within is that he somehow absorbed this from a Taoist master he knows. The reality is that the actual historical text has nothing to do with this text--compare any other translation. I wish he would explain exactly what he DID do in creating this text, which he could address on his blog. Some of the aspects of this text (references to sexual relationships between spiritual teachers and students) are merely weird if they were in some way traditional, but creepier if Walker actually wrote it.
Summary of Hua Hu Ching: Unknown Teachings of Lao Tzu, The
The perfect companion to Stephen Mitchell's version of the Tao Te Ching, this is the astonishing rendering of Lao Tzu's further writings. Each of the eighty-one teachings presented by Taoist scholar and poet Brian Walker are rich with wisdom, mystery, and startling enlightenment.Taoism Books
