Confucianism , Taoism and Buddhism [Abstract] Chinese culture has really huge containment between different ideas. It is surprising that these three different thoughts can exist peacefully in China. From the surface , It seems that these ideas are totally different , actually there are something in common which all of them have together. It is said combination of three religions. However, there are also the differences between them.
[Key words] Confucianism Taoism Buddhism common point differences
To begin with, in my opinion, the common point which the three ideas have is that they have the same understanding of the humanity. All of the theories of the humanity are based on human nature and popular feeling. They showed the wisdom of human nature by the behavior of moral cultivation. What they both
concentrate on is aspiring the syncretism between ideal of life and virtue. The Confucianism Taoism and Buddhism support achieving the perfect personality during the reality. They seek the momentary eternal and metaphysical wisdom.
From the disposition, the three ideas are all come into the world and then go back with the wisdom of mercy and peace . they hope people do the beneficial jobs with an insular heart. The Buddha said “Saints duffer as to how to understand nothing”, the founder of Taoism said ”Frequent Non-action and Limitless Action.” And what’s more, the Confucius said “I am in a consistent”. All of them showed the invisible realm into our tangible world. They presume and describe the beauty of the human nature with different ways and appellation.
Actually, Confucius and Taoism have the same homology. And Taoism and Buddhism pay attention to the individual accomplishment of life. They attach importance to realizing ideal personality and show the value of human concern with different ways.

Taoism emphasizes the existence value of individual. It would like to explore the value of human life during the process of the syncretism of human and Tao.
The Buddhist is concerned with human life care can never eliminate the pain of the contrast between desire and reality. It hopes reflect the value of life in the desire to exercise restraint and the pursuit of nirvana.
Secondly, these ideas three from different angles to provide spiritual impetus, to help people's pursuit of the ideal realm of life, which is also to pursue the realm of the pursuit of truth, goodness and beauty. Confucius is concerned about the whole world and it doesn’t care about the personal gains. They do things although they know it is possible to achieve it. It regards facing to face reality as the highest pursuit of life.
Taoism is not do things with human deliberately. It pursue the nature and perfection and it assert to return to the nature by a way of “body tao”. It assert people
should be unselfish and regard “with nature together” as the highest pursuit of life. Buddhism advocates unselfish, unworldliness, advocated by the good deeds to guide people in their pursuit of \The Confucianism Taoism and Buddhism three pursue of truth, goodness and beauty in their own ways. And they promote traditional Chinese culture to form a distinct characteristics. What’s more, the Confucianism three have attached importance to the relation between life and moral, emphasizes the necessity of self-cultivation.

The Taoists use empty silence to keep quiet to the development of human nature, advocate to remove the interferences and seek peace of mind. Buddhism required people immediately stop when they have thoughts and don't let it rise, therefore to maintain a peaceful heart. Therefore, paying attention to moral life and paying attention to cultivation of the mind is the key to three achievements of ideal personality
