Daoist rituals
Daoist rituals are practices rooted in Daoism, a Chinese philosophy that emphasizes harmony with the Dao, or the fundamental principle of the universe. These rituals often involve offerings, prayers, meditation, and ceremonies to seek balance, health, and spiritual enlightenment. They may also include the use of music, incense, and symbolic objects to connect with ancestors and deities. Rituals can take place in temples or at home and often mark important life events, seasonal changes, or spiritual milestones, reflecting the Daoist values of nature, balance, and the interconnectedness of all beings.
