About knowingkismet
Origin Story
Kismet – Born from the Roots of Taoism
Kismet draws its inspiration from the ancient and profound tradition of Taoism, one of the oldest spiritual practices in China, believed to have been founded by Laozi around the 6th century BCE. As the birthplace of Tao (the Way), Taoism emphasizes harmony with nature, the balance of the Five Elements, and the pursuit of spiritual enlightenment. Taoist teachings are deeply embedded in Chinese culture, with sacred sites such as Mount Tai, Mount Wudang, and the Taoist temples of Longhu Mountain serving as the spiritual centers of this ancient philosophy.

Kismet, founded with the vision of sharing the transformative power of Taoism, aims to connect individuals with this deep spiritual legacy. Each creation carries the energy of Taoist teachings—focusing on balance, protection, and prosperity. Our products are a bridge between the ancient wisdom of Taoism and modern life, designed to bring peace, balance, and harmony into your daily existence, drawing from the Taoist principles of living in alignment with nature and the universe.
