Taoism is not a religion, but a way of thought. It originated from the folk religions and understanding of ancient China, the Yin and Yang, and the older concepts found in such places as the I Ching. It has had a strong influence on many East Asian folk religions, Buddhism, Shintoism, and Confucianism.
