Detailed explanation-1: -Taoism has been connected to the philosopher Lao Tzu, who around 500 B.C.E. wrote the main book of Taoism, the Tao Te Ching. Taoism holds that humans and animals should live in balance with the Tao, or the universe.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Dao de jing is one of the two formative texts of the Chinese philosophy of Daoism. Supposedly by an author given the name “Laozi” (Old Master), the text is an anthology of sayings compounded over time, and organized into 81 brief chapters. It has had enormous influence in China, from the ancient period until today.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Laozi-also called the Daodejing, or The Way and Its Power-has been understood as a set of instructions for virtuous rulership or for self-cultivation. It stresses the concept of nonaction or noninterference with the natural order of things.
