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.

American religious scholar Huston Smith divides Taoism into three branches: Philosophical Taoism, Religious Taoism, and Taoist Hygiene. Philosophical Taoists center on the concepts of the Tao, wu wei, and the balance of yin and yang. Religious Taoists worship a pantheon of gods and spirits and practice various religious rites and ceremonies. Taoist Hygiene includes tai chi, qigong, feng shui, acupuncture, traditional Chinese medicine and herbalism, and different types of meditative practices.

Smith also said that the three separate branches at times "mingled powers" and that many of the beliefs and practices overlapped each other to some degree, ie; a Taoist priest being highly adept at I Ching divination and feng shui, or a Taoist Philosopher who may engage in some type of qigong exercise before retiring for the evening.

The primary religious figures in Taoism are Lao Tzu and Chuang Tzu, two scholars who dedicated their lives two balancing their inner spirits.

The most common graphic representation of Taoist theology is the circular Yin Yang figure. It represents the balance of opposites in the universe. When they are equally present, all is calm. When one is outweighed by the other, there is confusion and disarray. The Yin and Yang are a model that the faithful follow, an aid that allows each person to contemplate the state of his or her lives.

More a mode of living than an actual theology, Taoism asks that each person focuses on the world around him or her in order to understand the inner harmonies of the universe. It is a kind of religious system heavily focused on meditation and contemplation. The Tao surrounds everyone and one must listen to find enlightenment.

No it is not gluten free,

Whilst some beers such as Asahi and Corona are considered gluten free, Tsingtao is not made from only fermented yeast, but also barley imported from Australia.

The barley used contains gluten, and as such, those intolerant gluten are unfit to drink Tsingtao beer : (

We humans are creatures of extremes. This often shows up within our spirituality, making for aberrant religious behavior. Taoism did not escape this and so later followers became extreme and fanatical in their search for meaning. Some became hermits and nihilistic. Others became compulsive and controlling in their attempts to formulate "the way" of Taoism. Followers became discouraged, some turning to Confucianism. China today is a "mixed bag" religiously. Though Taoism in its original form has faded out, its positive influence within other religious traditions, in China and worldwide, continues to be felt.

One of the key tenets of Taoism is that you cannot define the Tao and it cannot be found through an intellectual quest. The Tao is like nature; things live and things die, nature and destiny cannot be changed.

Daoism has generally not been a proselytizing faith; it has little presence (as an organized religion) outside of China and the Chinese population in diaspora (such as in the US and Thailand). As such, it only has "unofficial" missionaries, such as martial artists and Chinese medicine practitioners who endorse the philosophy and faith abroad.

Menicius and Lao-zi

Confucianism is a system of hierarchies from superior to inferior, each having duties and responsibilities to those above and below them. It clarifies one's position in family, society and government. It defines the social order of a society in a patriarchal format. It's ultimate goal is an ordered society.

Taoism is the recognition of the intrinsic order of things. Taoists believe that one must fit oneself into this complex scheme so that the chi flows freely, the chi being life itself. So long as the Tao (Way) is followed, everything functions as it should.

Buddhism is a system of thought that deals with freeing the mind from it's intrinsic desires. Craving is shown to be the source of all suffering. Because everything is impermanent and transitory there can never be a lasting satisfaction. Only when one can overcome this craving for sensual things can the mind truly find peace.

The common goal of these three systems is, therefore, to find peace and stability within and without oneself.
