Primarily a Chinese religion. Chan (Zen in Japanese) Buddhism and Taoism influenced each other, especially transferring some terminology from the older Taoist religion to the newer Chan Buddhist religion.

Best known Taoist author would be Lao Tzu, who wrote the Tao Te Ching. Other seminal Taoist works include the much older I Ching and its commentaries, and the somewhat esoteric Cultivating Stillness on internal alchemy.
