Similarities of Taoism, Buddhism and Christianity
Abstract
This paper is about similarities between Taoism, Buddhism, and Christianity. I used a comparative approach based on three canonical texts, the New Testament, Tao Te Ching, and Rhinoceros Sutra. I argue that although these three religions can appear very different from one another and developed in three different places China, India, and the Middle East, they actually share the same core. They all want us to transcend our mental state to tranquility.
