Taoism (Daoism)

Taoism (Daoism) is an ancient Chinese philosophy focused on living harmoniously with the Tao (or Dao), which is the fundamental natural order of the universe. It emphasizes simplicity, spontaneity, and releasing attachment to rigid rules or desires. By observing nature’s flow and embracing humility,柔ances and effortless action ("wu wei"), individuals can achieve balance, inner peace, and alignment with the natural world. Taoism encourages humility, compassion, and inner tranquility, guiding people to live in harmony with the ever-changing, interconnected flow of life.
