The origin of Taoism can be traced back to Emperor Taigu. During the Spring and Autumn Period, Laozi collected the great wisdom of ancient sages, summed up the essence of ancient Taoist thought, and formed a moral theory of inaction. It marks the formal formation of this Taoist thought. Since then, it has become the supreme treasure of governing the country in past dynasties. With Huangdi, Laozi, Wen Zi, Liezi, Zhuangzi and Guan Zi as the main representatives, they advocated "governing by doing nothing, being simple and unpretentious, advancing with the times and changing with things" and so on. More importantly, although Taoism has classic works, its thoughts are not limited to works. The formation of Taoist thought takes summing up, developing and writing classics as the main path. Every leap in thought has gone through an extremely long period of accumulation, once again highlighting the vitality of Taoism. Taoist figures can make contributions to the WTO; You can also float away. In the long river of history, whenever a disaster comes, Taoist figures challenge the chaotic source of the disaster with a lofty spirit, punish evil and promote good, and set things right, thus stirring up many legendary chapters.

When Guo Guanzi was educating Pang Xian, he listed the basic practice direction of a Taoist scholar, which he called nine ways, namely, "one is virtue, the other is yin and yang, the third is dharma, the fourth is celestial officials, the fifth is divination, the sixth is geisha, the seventh is human feelings, the eighth is weapons and the ninth is soldiers." Both are indispensable, only more and less, and those who can become Taoists must be all-round talents.

There is no way to deal with Tao, but it is suitable for change. Historian Sima Tan said in Six Books. Taoism "changes with the times, with things", "nothing-oriented, adaptation for use", "inaction, impermanence", "keep pace with the times" and "keep pace with the times". Therefore, Tai Shigong emphasized' change'. This is due to the professional advantages and profound knowledge background of Taoism. Taoism comes from official history. In ancient times, the historian's duties were mainly to observe the stars, draw up the calendar, manage the royal classics and collect files, and was in charge of all the precious classics owned by Chinese tribal matriarchal society to paternal society, so he was a scholar who knew the knowledge group like the back of his hand at that time. In this sense, Taoism can be called the ancient Brahman of China.
