Why?

Throughout the Western world, there are many who have adopted the Eastern practice of taoism, as an alternative to Christianity.
Many are atheists. Many are emotion-driven. Many are politically-motivated. Most of these lean heavily to the left.
Thus by-passing the most fundamental tenet of taoism: It is all about Balance.

To call yourself a "taoist" carries a responsibility.
To not misrepresent an ancient "Way" to suit one's own ego, or political stance.
There being, so many, so guilty of this, is the sole reason for the existence of this site.

Claiming to be something, requires you to be what you claim to be.
Not merely to claim it.

Taoism is.

If describing the true nature of things were to be distilled down to only one word, that word would have to be: Is.
Not in the past, nor what might come to be.
Only the here, and only the now.
The only time ever actually able to be experienced.

Taoism Is: the realization of the present moment.
Taoism is not: what was, or what may come to be.
Taoism Is.
