Daoism originated in 4th century BC
Birthplace:chinese
Founder: Lao Zi
Magnum opus:Tao Te Ching
Taoism started like Confucianism as a way of life. Its founder, Lao Zi, encouraged his followers to observe and seek to understand the laws of nature. Lao Zi was born around the time as Confucius. He believed that everything in the universe, including human life, followed a pre-determined path (or "tao" in Chinese). Thus, it would be better if a person did not complicate the matter by interfering as an event unfolded. When applied to day-to-day life, Lao Zi urged emperors to assert little or no codified laws over their subjects. He objected to wars and disliked violence.
