In a sense Taoism is not so much a religion as a philosophy that is usually imposed on other religions. Taoists have a rather unspecific idea of divinity and afterlife. Most Taoists are Buddhists, who believe in reincarnation. Many Taoists are adherents of Chinese Folk Religions who seem to share a believe in afterlife centering around spirits of the dead who are the ancestors one should worship. Other Taoists are members of other religions with other beliefs.
Taoists don't believe in any gods. They believe in peace and calmness through the body. They don't often pray but when they do, it's often for someone to talk to. Taoists believe in kung fu and all of that stuff but don't have any gods to worship. So if you find a name for a god of the Taoist it's happy for you but i don't think there is a Taoist god. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Taoists believe in numerous deities, headed by the Jade Emperor & his Bride the Empress of the West. Above the Jade Emperor are the 3 Pure Ones.
Since most Taoists do not believe in a God, it is difficult to say that they "pray." More accurately, Taoists meditate; most Taoists perform some sort of meditation daily, although there is no rule about this. They also read sacred texts from their religion and think about the meanings those texts contain.
No, it is not. Adherents number about 50 million, which is not many as religions go. There are actually a lot more people influenced by Taoism, and even who believe in it. But it is compatible with other belief systems to the extent that many people who believe have other religions. There are many Buddhists who are also Taoists, but call themselves Buddhists and not Taoists when asked. The same is true for Shintoists. There are even many Christians who are also Taoists.
Countries in central Asia are dominant with Taoists. China is a country that is dominant with Taoists, Buddhists, and Confucianism.
Taoists aren't vegetarians. They are frugal meats, but don't abolish them. They do, however, incorporate increased amounts of fruits, veggies, seeds and nuts in their diet. Anyway, they follow such an organized diet regime because taoists regard the diet as extremely important to their physical, mental, and spiritual being. Taoists also believe that different foods have different amounts of chi in them. Basically they follow their diet to maintain and regulate balance.
