Preface

This is the current, July 23, 2015 version, Version 5, of the Chapter Index of the Tao Te Ching.  It was created by Michael P. Garofalo from the Valley Spirit Center, Gushen Grove, in Red Bluff, California.  This document has been online since 2010. 

I have prepared one webpage for each of the 81 Chapters of the Tao Te Ching (Dao De Jing), The Classic of the Way and Virtue, by Lao Tzu (Laozi). 

Each one of these 81 Daodejing webpage Chapters now includes over 20 English language translations for that Chapter, 3 Spanish language translations for that Chapter, the Chinese characters and the Wade-Giles and Hanyu Pinyin transliteration of the Mandarin voice for that Chapter, detailed indexing for that Chapter, commentary, supplementary materials, recommended reading, online resources, and more. 

Each Friday, I present a post about one Chapter of the Tao Te Ching in my Cloud Hands Blog.  

 

 

Introduction


I have prepared one webpage for each of the 81 Chapters of the Tao Te Ching (Dao De Jing), The Classic of the Way and Virtue, by Lao Tzu (Laozi).  Each of these webpages now includes over 20 different complete English language translations or creative interpretations or interpolations of that numbered Chapter.  Most of the English translations for each Chapter come from translations freely available in the public domain, from the 51 translations of the Daodejing now available online, while a few of the Chapter translations or interpolations come from cited books in print. 

The Chinese characters for each Chapter, and both a Wade-Giles and Hanyu Pinyin Romanized (i.e., Latin script) version of the Chapter are included on each webpage.  The Wade-Giles method for using the Roman (Latin) script to represent the sounds of Mandarin Chinese words was developed in 1892, and the Hanyu Pinyin method of Romanization was standardized in 1982 in the People's Republic of China.  There is some variation in how the Chinese characters for a Chapter of the Tao Te Ching are arranged, ordered, punctuated, and presented on a webpage; so readers should consult the many excellent books and webpages cited on my webpages for alternative versions to my display of the Chinese characters and the corresponding line by line Wade-Giles and Pinyin Romanized translations.   

There are 3 or 4 Spanish language translations for each Chapter, Spanish Terms in this index, and links to Spanish language resources about the Tao Te Ching.  Often, you will also find a French and German translation for a Chapter.   

A full index of the sources, both online and in print, for each English and Spanish language translator's version is provided.  Sources for the online and print Chinese-English language resources are provided. 

Most webpages now available online feature a specific translator's version of all 81 chapters of the Tao Te Ching.  These kinds of webpages appear and disappear each month on the WWW.  This website is somewhat unique in featuring a single webpage for each chapter with multiple translations (20+ English, 3+ Spanish, 2 Chinese) for that specific chapter on the webpage, along with other resources related to that specific chapter.  No other website on the Internet features as many different translations for each specific Chapter of the Daodejing as this website. 

Sources for commentaries and related references are included on the webpage for each Chapter.  Suggestions for purchasing good books on the subject are provided on each webpage and in my reading list.  References and links to related subjects in Taoist mind-body arts, published online by Green Way Research or at Ripening Peaches: Taoist Studies and Practices, are provided.  A number of these webpages include my own interpolations of the Chapter, poems, and comments. 

I hope that enthusiasts of Taoist works will find this hypertext collection of translations the Tao Te Ching useful in their studies.  New readers of the Tao Te Ching will find many suggestions for wise and peaceful living in the varied translations and interpretations of this classic Chinese contribution to our world heritage.  Some of Laozi's opinions are vague or incorrect or antiquated, and no wise person should consider any ancient text or scripture as inerrant or sacred or above criticism.  Those fascinated by the process and implications of translating thoughts and ideas between different languages, and the implications of reinterpretation and reading, will find the many versions of a Chapter quite interesting and revealing. 

After each quoted version for a Chapter, I use the expression "Translated by ..."  The version of the Chapter could be a strict or free or loose "translation" of the Chapter by a qualified bilingual, Chinese-English, scholar, teacher, Taoist, or expert, e.g., Stephen Addiss, Ellen Chen, Thomas Cleary, Robert Henricks, Livia Kohn, Michael LaFargue, Victor Mair, Red Pine, Lin Yutang, Arthur Waley, Burton Watson, John Wu, etc..  It could also be an "interpolation" by a qualified or unqualified non-bilingual author who compared a dozen translations into English, and then authored their own English version of the Chapter, e.g., Aleistar Crowley, Wayne Dyer, Ursula Le Guin, Rivenrock, John Worldpeace, etc.  It could be an "interpretation" of the Chapter to suit their own tastes, ideas, or beliefs, e.g., John Mabry's Christian interpretation or John Bright-Fey's esoteric Taoist interpretation.  I just call them all "translations," because I am often ignorant about the background, qualifications, and intentions of the translator/author.  

The "translations" for each Chapter are selected both by personal preference and randomly from the 51 translations now available online of the 81 Chapters of the Daodejing.  I also own a twenty five books of translations of the Daodejing.  The selections may or may not be "the best," or "most accurate," or "most meaningful," or "most beautiful."  These women and men, translators and authors, for some reason, decided it was worth their time to labor in the same fields of wisdom where once Laozi walked, following the Tao and striving to be both industrious and virtuous. 

This Chapter Index can also function as an electronic Concordance to the Daodejing.  Use the Ctrl + F keystroke combination to open the search function in any web browser.  Then, you can search this webpage by English, Spanish, and the Wade-Giles Romanized 'Terms.'  I use the word 'Terms' in my Chapter Index to loosely refer to: keywords, themes, phrases, chapter titles, terms frequently used in English language translations, subjects, topics, words, nouns, verbs, adverbs, or adjectives.  I tend to favor inclusiveness, related meanings, interrelated concepts, and generality when including Terms in this index; reflecting the fascinating complexity of translating and reinterpretation. 

One of my main objectives was to create a detailed subject index (Concordance) by Chapters of the Tao Te Ching, searchable by English and Spanish language Terms, and the Wade-Giles Romanized spellings for the Terms likely to correspond to the Mandarin Chinese language characters.  I completed a first draft in 2012 for searching by English language Terms for all 81 Chapters; and by July of 2014 for searching by Spanish language Terms for all 81 Chapters .  By July of 2015, I completed adding the Wade-Giles Romanized spellings (Latin script) for the spoken Mandarin Chinese Terms to all the web pages cited in this Chapter Index. 

I use plain simple .html code, and I consistently use Microsoft Front Page 2003 for webpage authoring.  This webpage can be saved, and then personally customized to your needs by using some simple html whiziwig writing software tool, or an expensive webpage management and authoring powerhouse like Dreamweaver CS5.  These webpages on the Internet can be saved and copied cleanly into other software formats.  It copies fairly cleanly from saved documents, and into Word documents; or, for cut and paste into other blogs, webpages or social media.  I've also used AskSam Version 6 software to catalog my entire Taoist website for fast searches.  I also write with the Atlantis text writing software.  I run software on the Microsoft Windows 8 OS running on a Hewlett Packard Pavilion.  I've always liked hypertext writing environments.  And, I enjoy online Web-based communications and webpage publishing under the Green Way Research banner-head. 

Each week I try to improve one of my webpages on the Tao Te Ching.  I am currently working on Chapters 15-25.   Each Friday, I present a post about one Chapter of the Tao Te Ching in my Cloud Hands Blog.  

Thanks for visiting this website.  Your feedback and support are appreciated.
