Taoists are adherents of Taoism who believe in spiritual immortality, in which the spirit of the body joins
the universe after death.
Taoists are adherents of Taoism who believe in spiritual immortality, in which the spirit of the body joins
the universe after death.

Buddhists are people who practice Buddhism and believe that the goal of life is to achieve what they call
"Nirvana." Buddhists, for example, strive to avoid sins such as murder, sexual immorality, stealing, lying,
and so on. Because, according to their doctrine, people must cultivate their mind and character to
progress along the path to enlightenment.

Taoists, on the other hand, concentrate on the "Tao," or their term for the universe. It is concerned with
the peaceful coexistence of humans and animals in the universe. For example, the use or belief in "Yin
Yang" which stands for balancing forces.

2. What is the difference between individualism and collectivism? You can research about this over the
Internet. Explain in your own words, provide examples to justify your answer.

The difference between individualism and collectivism,

Individualism is individualistic cultures that refers to societies where people take personal responsibility
for their actions and are free to seek their own rights to privacy, equality, and freedom.

Collectivism is collective cultures that focus to well-being of the group is given priority. Social group
responsible for the action of the individuals as well as their safety and welfare.

example:

Individual Activity

- Individual Success

- Supported by self

- They are not relying on others

Group Activity

- Cooperating large group

- Group Success

- Supporting/helping one another

 WESTERN
-Always looking towards the self.
Compares themselves positively with
peers.
The sisters Anna and Lorrie are both good
at studies. but for a long time, Lorrie has
not been able to beat Anna in the Math
subject, so Anna uses it as an inspiration
to get better
-Looks at the world in “Dualities”
To provide the illusion of experience, the
idea of duality is required. Your body is
not you. You have no shape. Of course, a
formless you is powerless to 'do'
anything. The idea of duality provides the
illusion of experience by giving you a
physical body in a different reality that
you may connect with as your own.
This enables you to convey the idea that
you are a distinct individual with a life, a
family, a work, friends, perhaps a wife or
husband, and perhaps children.
EASTERN
- Holistic approach.
All events in the universe are interconnected and
that meditation and right living are ways to
search yourself.
Example:
As a student, as a daughter, as an elder sister. I
want it all to perform well.
being a student with good grades, being a sister
who is viewed as a good role model, and a
responsible daughter. it clearly shows that a
right living are ways to search for yourself.
-Sees the other “person part of yourself”
we see other people as a part of ourselves.
because we have a few role plays that they
became a big part of it.
Example: we see our mothers as part of our
humanity, because they are the ones who taught
us how to live, nurtured and disciplined us,
making us believe that they became a big part of
our humanity. because without them you
wouldn't exist now.
-American, for example, they talk about their
personal attributes when describing themselves.
Example: Example: Roman is running for Vice
Mayor somewhere in Canada. and he introduces
himself to people through his good attributes
such as strong, resilient, caring, assertive, hard-
working, reliable, honest, practical, responsible,
loyal, mature.
- Americans, in terms of self-evaluation, would
highlight their Personal achievement.
Example: When getting a job, people in western
countries always brag about their personal
achievements because they believe that by
bragging they will be better chosen for the job.
- Individualistic culture since their focus on the
person.
this is the most common thing done by western
country people. being individualistic, especially in
the country of America by the age of 18 should
not depend on your parents.
-Loose associations or loyalty to their groups.
competition is the name of the game and forceful
in their communication as well as decision
making.
Example: Ronald and Kelle have been friends for
a long time, and they are in the same class
together in all the groupings. not until they have
a research paper. Ronald knows that Kelle is
weak in English so he leaves her and joins
another group that he knows will help him get a
good grade.
-Asian in general, would talk about their social
roles or the social situations that they deem
positive for themselves.
Example: best example is that the way VP ran.
Leni Robredo in the last election. she used her
being a good mother to her children as an
example of how she would be a good leader in
the country
-Asian in general, would rather keep a low profile
as promoting the self can be seen as
boastfulness that disrupts social relationship.
Example: In courting when you have an opponent
with the girl you like. Asian countries believe that
if you don't brag about your achievements in life,
the girl and her parents will notice you more as
humble.
-Collectivistic
cultures that focus to well-being of the group is
given priority. Social group responsible for the
action of the individuals as well as their safety
and welfare.
- Cooperation, Compromising and look after the
welfare of their groups and Values.
Example: Ronald and Kelle have been friends and
classmates for a long time, and they help each
other even when they are struggling with
subjects, and they value each other's company.
-Emphasis is more on the
value of equality even if
they see that the individual
can rise above everything
else. Because everyone is on
their own in the competition,
one can say that they also
promote ideals that create a
“fair” competition and
protect the individual
Example: Equality for LGBTQ+, BLACK LIVES
MATTER MUSLIMS AND ETC. are examples of
movements fighting for equal consideration and
treatment
-Westerners would most
likely to call their boss,
parents, or other seniors by
their first name. The boss
can also be approached
head-on when conflicts or
problems about him/her
arises.
Example: usually in western countries, they are
mistaken for rude because they do not have a
specific call for the elderly in society.
- more emphasis on hierarchy
as culture wants to keep
things in harmony and in
order (Qingxue 2003
Example: in Asian countries, we prefer to follow
and not rebuke the rules, especially when it
comes to family and culture. beacuse they
believed culture wants to keep
things in harmony and in
- They have respectful terms
for our seniors and a lot of
workers would not dare go
against the high ranking
officials (Qingxue 2003
Example: Eastern countries highly value respect
by bowing to elders, commanding, and calling it
as kuya, ate , lola, and also by using po at opo.
