Taoism, for the sake of improving its theoretical system, holds profound study and insights towards the nature and law of time and space. Taoism delivers the infinity of time and space as the unity of continuity and discontinuity, and puts forward a number of ways how current time and space take their origins and evolve over time. It also bears a comprehensive understanding towards the asymmetry and uncontrollability of time and space, which can be linked with Taoist magic and Huangbai method. These accomplished findings are of great value when contrasted with modern science, and at the same time some common grounds are established to carry out dialogues between religion and science.
