Taoism

• Taoism Was based on the Tao Te Ching or the Book of the Way and

  Virtue by Lao Tzu
• Many of the 30 million Taoists blend their religion with Buddhism

  and Confucianism.
• Taoists are found in Southeast Asian countries
• Taoism promotes inner peace within an individual and harmony

  with the surroundings.
• Tao means the path or the way. It is considered as the cause of

  everything which means that if one follows the Tao, there is

  harmony; if not, there is chaos.
• The Tao has three basic tenets, namely, Tao, Wu Wei, and Yin

  Yang.
• Tao refers to the universal laws of nature while Wu Wei means

  letting go.
• Yin and Yang means dualism or interconnecting opposites. The

  black dot in the white area represents that there may be

  opposing aspects of the other within itself and vice versa. This

  means that Yin and Yang may be opposites but they are

  interdependent.
