Hey @Tfmonkey what translation of the Tao do you recommend?
What's the most demystified one?

The original.

>but I can't read Chinese

Skill issue.

@cowanon @LysanderMooner here is the one I use. It also has character-by-character translation and teaches you how to understand the original Chinese and the alternative translations so that you can decide how YOU want to interpret it.

@cowanon @LysanderMooner don't get the mass market paperback, get the one with the white cover.

Philip Star writes some very good books about internal martial arts that are more closely based to actual physics than religious sounding terminology compared to other authors I have read

These martial arts allegedly were historically connected to Taoism

I am not saying it is completely free of religious bias but it is a matter of degree compared to a lot of other authors

Bagua for example allegedly had another name called changing palms but became religious later
