can you make a comparison and contrast of the Confucianism and Taosim?儒家和道家的比较和区别
Confucianism .Kung Fu Tzu (Confucious ) was the founder of Confucian
Philosophy that believed that in times of a violent social change ,`li '
or tradition can return society to its original ,stable state .This
will allow society to accept only what would benefit it .`Li ' can also
train even the lowest person to become a ruler ,because through rituals
and education ,he can follow a model .This is the ultimate form of
human development .
Taoism .`Tao ' means the way or path .This philosophy was founded by
Lao Tze .This is about man 's search for his place and fulfilling his
role in the natural scheme of things .To go beyond this role ,for the
Taoists ,is to cause chaos ,frustration and a sense of the incomplete .
To discover our place in the `Tao Te Ching (The Way and Its Power ) we
must look inside ourselves and nature for the answer .Another very
important teaching of Taoism is the `Wu Wei ' or doing nothing ,applied
it means letting things take their natural course .
Similarities (1 ) Both Philosophies believed in the Doctrine of the
Golden Mean ,that if a condition turned into the extreme ,it will
turnaround .This gives hope and courage to persevere (2 ) Both schools
of thoughts seek Knowledge or Education .For Confucianism it is the
means for a person to see his place in the of things and for
Taoism it is empowering (3 ) Confucianism and Taoism both seek harmony
in the world .For Confucianism it is through its ethical teachings and
for Taoism it is through the `Wu Wei '
Differences (1 ) Conventions .Confucianism believed that children
ought to learn the rules and ethics of society that are important as
well as necessary in life .For Taoism it must the old people who should
recover the natural conduct of society before it was by new norms (2 ) The `Tao ' In Confucianism ,the Tao of Man is the
right path to a moral life and in Taoism ,it is the cosmic way and
process or the natural .
Confucianism and Taoism are more complimentary than contradictory .
They have been a great part of the Chinese mind and culture ,that a
person is not complete if he has one but without the other .

the two philosophies regard people asthe core. Round people, the two have done much helpful and positivethinking. The two each have its feature. They influence thedevelopment of Chinese culture and Chinese’s spirit.

The complementation of the both affectsChinese nation’s culture and character. Learning these twophilosophies is very good for us to understand Chinese culture
