It also features "Wu-wei", which essentially is acting with the least amount of struggle as that's what the universe wants. The main difference between the philosophy and religion is the inclusion of many gods from other religions. Similar to Confucius, the founder, Lao- Tzu, set out to isolation make himself a better person. Similar to Buddhists who believe that suffering comes from desire, Taoists believe that true understanding can only be done while being free from desire, which is a belief that is agreed upon by many other religions but only made a true focus upon by some, Which I agree with. ]]> 2020-10-21 21:01:24 UTC https://padlet.com/jtmikami1998/t5bocay2e0wa8uaj/wish/850429248
