Explanation:
Confucius believes in benevolence of mankind. Both he and Lao Tzu (who by the way may not have existed) incorporate the concept of “Tao” into their ideology however, their versions of Tao are clearly different. Confucius believes that Tao is a force that acts to make man moral. His teachings have a large ethical and sociological facet. Lao Tzu, on the other hand has a firmer belief in inaction. Ethics seems to be less important and his focus is concentrated on achieving nothing (I suppose it doesn’t matter who is doing right or wrong if no one is doing anything). Yes, sounds counter-intuitive, but he inaction is the best form of action; it is the best way to live harmoniously and naturally. Social interaction is not highly valued, everyone should be on their own paths to finding their true self. Lao Tzu’s version of Tao is that it is the natural force of nature. It is everything at once. One should not try and name it or define it because then it would confine Tao to a single face or entity. His version of Tao is different for each person and it is a person’s duty to find it for themselves
