Mig Posted January 25, 2017 I was wondering if those called Daoist practitioners, instructors or Masters in the West are more trained in reading books in western languages on religion, philosophy and Daoism than having a full training in Chinese language from native Masters in Daoism. I have noticed some westerner scholars have written a plethora of books on Daoism and wonder how proficient they are in both classical Chinese, written Chinese or spoken Chinese. Or would you consider language proficiency is not necessary? Thanks, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
