The "Tao" mentioned by Confucius is the "golden mean" and a method; The "Tao" mentioned by Buddhism is the "middle way" of Buddhism and the highest truth. Be reasonable, don't go to extremes. From both sides, it is the middle way. Buddhism's Tao is the thought of the middle view, which involves "the middle way" and "emptiness". The thought of "emptiness" seems empty but not empty, so we can't seek emptiness with emptiness.

Song * Ma Duanlin once briefly introduced Taoism in "General Theory of Literature" and said: "Gaizhi said; Refine and improve; Say it again with food; Fu Zhuan said it again and again; Classic science and education is another story. "

He said that the book "Huang Lao Lie Zhuang" is pure and inaction, but slightly refined; Red pine nuts and Wei Boyang only talk about cultivation but not purity; Lu Sheng, Tao Shaojun and Luan Dayan brought meals without training; Zhang Daoling and Guan Qian's words are symbolic, not refined and borrowed; Du Guangting said only classic science and education below. In today's words, it is divided into meditation, health preservation, food tonic, magic, scripture and other schools.
