Taoism is an indigenous traditional Chinese religion whose fundamental purpose is to help seekers attain transcendence. Taoism originates from ancestor worship, belief in ghosts and gods, Taoist philosophy, as well as mystical practices. It is generally believed that Taoist organizations were formally established 1,900 years ago by Celestial Master Zhang Daoling during the reign (AD 126-144) of Emperor Shundi of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

Taoism regards Tao, or the Way, as its ultimate belief. The "Tao" that we believe in is fundamentally the "void" or nothingness yet encompassing everything. Therefore, we always advocate the spirit of tolerance. In this world exist many cultures and religions, large in number and distinct in nature. We believe that these distinctions do not necessarily lead to conflict.

What do you think of Taoism? Is the spirit of tolerance that it advocates effective in China's grand dream of Constructing a harmonious society?[/quote]
