daoism
type: Concept
definition: Daoism is a generic term covering various Chinese philosophical and religious traditions that trace their origins back to the possibly apocryphal figure Laozi from the sixth century BCE, after whom a small collection of mystico-poetic aphorisms is named, also called Daodejing (Scripture [jing] of the Way [Dao] and Its Virtue [de]). As its name implies, Daoism's cardinal concept is Dao, the primordial, creative source that gives rise to and nourishes all things and to which all things return.
