Tao Te Ching 29-43

In book 29, we see once again how one of the main themes is taking it easy and letting things flow. "So sometimes things are ahead and sometimes they are behind; sometimes breathing is hard, sometimes it comes easily…" In book 30, the Tao Te Ching is similar to Confucian teachings in that they both say that a ruler cannot rule through strength. From this we can learn to be peaceful and to always try to be a leader without forcing people.

Like I said before, the Yin-Yang has to be from Daoism. As I have read on, all the sayings seem to lead to a good and an evil; a whole coming from two parts. "The low is the foundation of the high." "The ten thousand things carry yin and embrace yang. They achieve harmony by combining these forces." There's my proof. All my thoughts were prior to reading that line, and it makes perfect sense.
