Taoism
Taoism is an ancient Chinese philosophy and spiritual tradition that emphasizes living in harmony with the Tao, which is the fundamental principle that underlies and unites all things. It offers a way of understanding the natural world and our place within it. Taoists practice concepts like wu wei (effortless action) and mindfulness, focusing on simplicity, humility, and compassion. While it can be viewed as a religion with rituals and deities, at its core, Taoism encourages personal spiritual growth and a deep connection to nature, seeking balance and tranquility in everyday life.
