Abstract

John Hick has made significant contributions to the contemporary philosophy of religion and theology, particularly in the field of theodicy, religious pluralism and eschatology. In religious pluralism, Hick reviews the “invisible harmony” among world religions and avers that they are valid responses to the same Ultimate Reality. In light of this, this chapter seeks to examine the doctrine of Dao in Dao De Jing, and interpret it as a significant dimension of a multifaceted response to the Ultimate Reality. This analysis may help readers explore the concept of Dao and the relationship between Dao and Daoism, so as to forge a new path for interreligious dialogue.
