Maybe the real reason Trump doesn’t want these files released? He was sucking off some guy named Bubba?

    While the Tao Te Ching is Taoism’s primary text, it’s basically just Taoist philosophy distilled to its essential form. It doesn’t give you very much beyond “there is this thing called the Tao (the way), and here’s a bit about what that tells us about the universe and how to exist in it, at a very high level.”

    There are other Taoist texts which are less lofty, and much more comprehensive and practical. The biggest is the Daozong (Taoist Canon). It’s massive, so I’m guessing you’d find what you asked about in there. The only problem is finding a good translation if you can’t read any (ancient) Chinese.
