    The idea of Taoism was originally presented by Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu. His beliefs and views on this philosophical system were stated in Tao te Ching, which in English is interpreted as ‘The Classic book on the way of Virtue’. The book, which has very little known about its roots and creation, talks about what effect behaviours can have on an individual’s life, and how to prevent these behaviours from having negative consequences. For many people in the modern day, the Tao te Ching provides an insight into ‘the art of living’ and how to live in a world of peace and joy. I agree with his philosophy that he presents in his book, in that people living the natural way and not forcing outcomes of life and situations leads to a better sense

    Taoism is in itself a very difficult religion to define. Little is known of its founder or its origins, and it has no clear doctrine or method of worship. The whole concept of Tao is extremely abstract and therefore cannot be fully explained, only understood. The religion may hold a completely different meaning for each person--it may be a form of philosophy, religion, or magic. The religion has guided countless individuals through life and toward union with the Tao. As it has influenced the past through its writings, Taoism may influence the world for generations more with its wisdom.
