Culture/Religion of the Tang

The Tang dynasty believed in Taoism (Daoism),which is the belief that everyone should live a peacefully,happily and spiritually.One example of a religious practice/belief of Daoism is wu-wei,in which people learn to live free like birds,who use the wind to guide them,rather  than trying to force their way through the wind currents,they are taught this to avoid living like learning ambition(a desire for some type of achievement or distinction, as power, honor, fame, or wealth),excessive desire and  self pride.Wu-wei is important to the religious beliefs of the Tang because it teaches them to live life the way it flows,instead of pushing for self-efficiency and self confidence.

Another example of a religious practice/belief that the Tang used in Daoism to satisfy their lives was alchemy,the belief in which people would learn the understanding(s) of medicine and the body.Alchemy also focused on the purification of ones spirit and body.Alchemy was important to the religious beliefs of the Tang because it taught them medicine and taught them more about the body and how it worked.

Legalism shouldn't be a religion of the Tang dynasty because it taught the people that everyone was selfish,and that they should care for themselves.That is bad for the religion of the Tang because it would be teaching them to all be selfish .The Tang dynasty should keep their religion and culture as Daoism and not Legalism because Daoism teaches all people to live spiritually and peacefully.
