What is the way of heaven? The law is natural, and the heaven and the man are one

There are many temples of the God of Wealth and Guanyin on Mount Tai, it seems that Taoists understand the demands of the people. But I don't quite understand, is Guanyin a Buddhist or a Taoist? The Taoism of Mount Tai began in the late Eastern Han Dynasty 1800 years ago, when Zhang Ling created the Five Dou Rice Tao. Laozi was regarded as the ancestor of the religion, respected as the Supreme Laojun, and the 'Laozi Five Thousand Texts' was the main classic. During this period, Cui Wenzhi, a disciple of Zhang Ling, went up the mountain to collect medicine and refined the 'Huang Chi San Jiu', which saved tens of thousands of people during the epidemic. Since then, Taoism has begun to spread on Mount Tai. Taoism regards Mount Tai as the cave house where the immortals live and the ideal place for Taoist practice, calling it the second cave of the thirty-six caves. Taoism believes that the God of Mount Tai and the Granny of Mount Tai are the most important gods of Mount Tai. The Bi Xia Yuanjun, who is enshrined in the Bi Xia Temple, has become the most efficacious goddess in the eyes of the believers. They believe that as long as they 'accumulate virtue and do good deeds, be sincere in their hearts, and ask her for anything, she will agree'. Famous Taoist priests who have practiced on Mount Tai include Cui Wenzhi, Zhang Lianshi, Qiu Chuji, Zhang Sanfeng and dozens of others.
