There is no clear information to prove which version is the best in Taiyi Jinhua. Different versions have their own characteristics and historical background, so it is impossible to directly judge which version is the best.

The oldest extant edition of Taiyi Jinhua Zhi is the 64-volume Complete Works of Lv Zu compiled by Shao Yu 1775, followed by Zhen Jing compiled by Jiang Yupu in 1803, and Daozang compiled by Jiang Yu during Jiaqing (1796-/kloc-). The modern Chinese version is annotated by Professor Wang Kuipu, a health care scientist, which is easier to understand.

It is suggested that if you are interested in the purpose of Taiyi Golden Flower, you can learn about the background and history of each version and choose the appropriate version according to your personal preferences and needs.
