Welcome!

Lao Tzu and Taoism can not be separated. Lao Tzu is considered tLao Tzuo be the father of Taoism, thus when one studies Lao Tzu he/she studies Taoism too.

The Taoism of Lao Tzu is not only a religious system, as one might think. Though Taoism exists as religion too, it is also a philosophical path. That is, the path of uniting man and Tao through careful emulating the Tao. This is why when we talk about Lao Tzu and Taoism we also talk about Tao, or the Way.

The very sources of information about Taoism is the Tao Te Ching (the Classic of Tao and Te ). This book is ascribed by tradition to Lao Tzu who explains the basic Taoist terms and concepts such as Tao, Wu (Emptiness), Wu-Wei (Nondoing), and Fu (Return ).
