Such readers frequently draw erroneous conclusions about the texts. A common misinterpretation is that philosophical Taoism can somehow be separated from holistic Taoism. It can't be. Religious Taoism claims the TTJ as the source of its mystic, emptying meditative traditions. Another fact little known outside China is that a Taoist must be an initiated individual.
Simple belief is insufficient, no matter how sincere or beneficial.
As Taoism takes firmer root in our modern Western soil, a broader, more complete knowledge of the Taoist Canon would help everyone to better understand the real nature of traditional Taoist practice. That's a tall order, given the language barrier, the breadth of the Canon, the amount of knowledge yet to be transferred, and the problematic state of Taoist communities in China. But that's one of TRS' primary goals, to bridge the gulf between Taoist communities, and to promote and preserve Taoism's ancient traditions.
