What is Cao Dai?The religion of Cao Dai started in the late 1920s in Tay Ninh, a city in southern Vietnam. Concepts include a single god (Cao Dai means "high place," where the god reins). The religion is said to, "create a more tolerant world where all can see each other as sisters and brothers from a common divine source." This religion believes that God was born after a "big bang," and then created the universe using the concept of yin and yang. In addition to God, there is the goddess he created that is known as Mother Buddha.
