Welcome. This video could easily be called What is Taoism? The art of effortless living. Or maybe it can be called a brief history of Taoism, the philosophy of flow and longevity. Whatever name this video takes on, it is going to be entertaining and inciteful. Everybody has heard the term Tao, and it has been used in the title of many books and documentaries over the last generation. But few people really know what Taoism is, how it began or why it’s important. I am going to attempt to answer those questions in this video on one of the world’s oldest philosophies, Taoism.


In case you don’t know who I am, I’m Chad and this is my channel, Open Your Reality. I make videos about spirituality, simulation theory and any phenomena that could blow your mind at any given time. For those reasons, it’s probably your wisest choice to subscribe now or possibly risk losing me forever. And we wouldn’t want that. Now onto the subject at hand. You're probably wondering how does Taoism work? Who invented Taoism? What are basic Taoist teachings? What are the basics of Taoism?


The philosophy of Taosim came into place over 2,000 years ago and was essentially started by one very wise man, named Lao Tze. I am going to elaborate on him in a moment. I first want to preface this video by saying much of the information in it comes from the awesome book by Daniel Reid called The Tao of Health, Sex and Longevity. I first read this book in the 90s and was completely blown away by how dense with knowledge this book is.


Most of the information I am going to tell you is from the introduction and I’ll read much of it word-for-word, with commentary from myself after most passages. By the way, Taoism is the art of doing nothing, but in this video I need you to at the least tap the like button. That’ll really help me out. Thanks. Alright, so with all those formalities out of the way, we can finally turn our attention to the Tao. I think you’ll really enjoy this video and it may be quite long, so if you like the longer videos, this one is for you. We know Taoism springs from a 5,000 word poem called the Tao Teh Ching attributed to one man named Lao Tze, meaning the old sage. The wisdom in this poem is part of the foundation of an entire philosophy of living. In fact, to this day, no other book save for the bible has been translated more often.
