Daojia
Daojia (also known as Taoism) is a philosophical tradition of Chinese origin which emphasizes living in harmony with the Dao (also spelled Tao). The Dao is a fundamental idea in most Chinese philosophical schools; in Daojia, however, it denotes the principle that is the source, pattern and substance of everything that exists.
Philosophy[edit | edit source]
Daojia is a philosophy that's based on the texts of the Zhuangzi and the Tao Te Ching. The philosophy of Daojia is centered around the concept of the Dao, which can be understood as the way of the universe, the path that all life follows. Daojia teaches that one should strive to align oneself with the Dao and live in harmony with nature.
Practices[edit | edit source]
Practices within Daojia vary widely, and can include meditation, feng shui, fortune telling, and ritualistic ceremonies. Many followers of Daojia also believe in the concept of wu wei, which is the idea of effortless action or going with the flow of life.
Influence[edit | edit source]
Daojia has had a significant influence on Chinese culture and thought, and has also spread to other parts of the world. It has influenced many areas of life, including art, literature, philosophy, medicine, and martial arts.
