Highier Beings in Daoist World
(1)
17 July 2008

Taoist worldview is very similar
to that of Buddhism, believing all manifestations in
the uniserve, tangible or intanble, substantial or
abstract, are all derived from our collective or
individual mental perceptions, therefore by essence, they
are just dreams.
While Daoists focus on making better dreams by
ascending to higher realms of existence, Buddhists
strive to wake up from the dream state all together by
breaking free from the bubble of illusive reality, then
if needed re-enter any dreamland in total lucidity and
under complete self control.
