The difference between Yijing and Daodejing

The difference between the Book of Changes and the Tao Te Ching is that:

1, with different ranges: Yijing refers to Lianshan, Guizang and Zhouyi. Tao Te Ching is a philosophical work of Laozi (Li Er), also known as Tao Te Ching, Laozi and Laozi's 5,000 words and 5,000 articles.

2. Different contents: I Ching covers many fields such as philosophy, politics, life, literature, art, science and so on. It is the first of the group classics and a common classic of Confucianism and Taoism. The main text of Tao Te Ching takes the philosophical meaning of "virtue" as the key link, and discusses the ways of self-cultivation, governing the country, using troops and keeping in good health, but it mostly aims at politics, that is, the so-called "sage inside and king outside", which has profound meaning and contains a wide range.

3. Different time: The Book of Changes was written in the upper, middle and lower periods, and all three books were written in ancient times. Tao Te Ching was written in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.
