Buddhism is a great religion in China and even the whole world. Now Buddhism is almost all over the country. Taoism is our own religion in China. It has a long history and many people believe in Taoism. These two sects have many believers in China, which also represents the long history and culture of China.
If you are very cautious, you can easily find that there is a difference between Taoism and Buddhism. Monks we usually see in TV dramas or in our lives are meditating all the time. We know that Buddhism advocates cultivating the mind. You see, some of them are very fat, but in fact, they don't have very high requirements for their bodies. Some monks can't practice martial arts yet, and think that practicing the mind is the greatest practice.
Taoists are just the opposite of Buddhism. Taoist priests not only knock their brains out, but also pay attention to exercising and learning martial arts. We can see that ordinary Taoist priests sometimes meditate, but the time is not very long. In general, it only takes about 1 hour to complete. After meditation, they have to practice martial arts, and some even go to an alchemist to adjust their discomfort. All these show that Taoist priests attach great importance to their physical fitness and will also make targeted alchemy drugs.
Then let me analyze it. Taoist not only cultivates the mind but also pays more attention to the body. They work harder than monks who only practice mental methods, so their bodies are naturally thinner.
