"After reading this book, I was crazy about the Chinese view on the world and the philosophy," he said .
Dai has finished his translation of Tao Te Ching and it will be published soon. Then he is going to translate the Four Books and Five Classics (a collective name for Confucianism classics) and the Diamond Sutra, a Buddhist classic text.
Translating classics of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, the three major philosophy systems of China, is his dream.
