The essential difference between Taoism and Buddhism is: "Tao talks about this life, and Buddha talks about the next life."

1. The “three refuges” of Buddhism are nature, mind, and body. The existence of heavenly principles in one's nature means the existence of refuge, the existence of principles in one's mind means refuge in the Dharma, and the existence of the principles of one's body means refuge in the Sangha.

2. The "Three Flowers" of Taoism are sex, mind and body. The beauty of one's nature is sufficient for heaven and reason, the beauty of one's heart is sufficient for reason, and the beauty of one's body is sufficient for emotions. Taoism starts with physical training, and Buddhism starts with cultivating one’s nature.

3. Buddhism seeks transcendence by entering into the world, while Taoism enters the world with a transcendent mind. Buddhism is that all dharmas are unified and will eventually perish, while Taoism is about learning from the law and natural people have their own ways.

4. The goal pursued by Buddhism is "Nirvana", escape from the cycle of life and death. Buddhism believes that life is suffering. Life is suffering, death is suffering.

5. And this kind of suffering has no end. It is in a cycle of life and death that has no end.

6. The basic difference is: Taoism advocates taking life as reality, pursuing longevity and health, and physical immortality.

7. Taoism believes that human life is composed of vitality, and the body is the residence of the spirit. If you want to live forever, you must nourish both body and soul, that is, you must cultivate "internally" and "externally".

8. Contrary to Taoism, Buddhism advocates 'no birth' and believes that reality is a sea of ??suffering for everything.

9. People are powerless against reality. We must give up all kinds of desires and place our hopes on the next life.

1. Buddhism dates back more than 2,500 years and was founded by Prince Gautama Siddhartha of Kapilavastu (now Nepal) in ancient India (refer to Buddha’s birthday). Western countries generally believe that Buddhism originated in India, and India is actually working hard to create an image of a "Buddhist holy land".

This has caused many people to have the illusion that Buddha was born in India, which has always made the Nepalese people dissatisfied. Buddhism is also one of the three major religions in the world. Buddha means "the awakened one". The Buddha is also called the Tathagata, the worthy offering, the right and all-knowing, the perfect practitioner of enlightenment, the good passerby, the understander of the world, the supreme scholar, the leader of the ruler, the teacher of gods and humans, and the World Honored One. Buddhism attaches great importance to human spiritual and moral progress and enlightenment. The purpose of Buddhist believers to practice Buddhism is to discover the truth of life and the universe according to the practice methods enlightened by Siddhartha, and ultimately transcend life, death and suffering, cut off all troubles, and obtain ultimate liberation.

2. Taoism is a native religion in China, with "Tao" as the highest belief. Taoism is based on the concept of worshiping ghosts and gods in ancient China, based on the thoughts of Huang and Lao Taoism, and inherited the immortal magic since the Warring States Period. In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, a large number of Taoist organizations appeared, the famous ones being Taiping Taoism and Wu Dou Mi Taoism.
