I hope this is the right place to ask this since the following books do deal with Chinese Martial Arts:
"I Ching"
"Hsing I"
"Tao Te Ching"
Well, I looked up these three books on Amazon, but to no surprise there was more than one version of each book. So, I'm wondering if anyone can recommend a specific version for each book.
This is a very good translation of the Tao Te Ching: http://www.chinapage.com/gnl.html
I'm afraid that 90% of the translations in book form are translated badly to sound "mystical."

Now I just need "I Ching" and "Hsing I".
The problem with translating the I Ching is the pattern; The patterns created by the Chinese characters and the poetic nature therin is impossible to translate.
Or so I've heard; I'm no Chinese speaker.
It is Fake

I'll recommend some books if you tell me what you need them for.

The "I Ching" and "Tao Te Cheng" for philosophy and "Hsing I" for Martial Arts philosophy.
