Taoism was founded by Lao Tzu who developed the concept of Tao, the way, as everything revolves around this way. There are three ways to understand the Tao; The Tao is the same in everything, the ultimate reality, cannot be exhausted, and is the way of life. In Taoism the ability to move the force of Tao is called Te, and can be translated into three different meanings. Philosophical Taoism is the first, it is reflective and it is the attitude towards life; the second is vitalizing, because it is active and engages the ch'i or energy. The last meaning is religious Taoism, this involves meditation on nothingness and uses diviners or healers to understand problems and answers; the three branches can circulate within each other to maximize tea. Taoism has fundamental aspects concerning nature, energy flow and effectiveness called wu wei; humans must work with nature, not against it. Taoists believe that nature has a higher place than humans, because the Taoist of the Transcendent, the energy that runs through all things, is constant; people are a part of nature, while nature is a part of the supreme. When man follows the flow of wu wei he will find total happiness and avoid a disharmonious environment. So the purpose of the Tao is to listen and self-reflect to better understand, while bringing peace and balance to a person's life. The yin/yang symbol is a perfect example of two complete opposites that complement each other, thus bringing balance and harmony to life. However, Confucianism was founded by Confucius, who was fixated on how people could become more humane. He based all his theories on the Chou Dynasty, making tradition an important aspect of his philosophy. Basically, Confucius thought that… the middle of the paper… the area. Another way they work together is by balancing behavior; cultures may blend the controlled behavior of the Confucians to maintain order in society, but they use the natural flow of the Taoists to keep the good energy flowing through them, creating a unified experience. Two completely opposite religions have found a way to move around each other in a rhythm that balances all the different aspects. The purpose of these religions is to create a harmonious and balanced life, which is why Confucianism and Taoism are complementary. Although Confucianism aims for the greater good of the social order and Taoism aims for something beyond society, both help each other achieve their goals using similar morality. Although their structures may seem different, the aspects that form their foundation can easily be taken from various cultures and blended to form a cohesive environment..
