The Path of Advaita Vedanta and philosophic Taoism seem to hold many

similarities. What are their differences? The only differences I can think

of are in Taoism all of creation comes from the Tao , where as in Advaita

all is the Self and external reality is seen as an illusion. Taoism also

holds fast to the importance of nature but Advaita sees the external world

as a distraction more than anything else. To those familiar with both

philosophies, can you think of any other similarities or differences between

them? In some respects, they seem so close they also seem related( they

aren't).

 

Kind Regards,

Jeremy
