>taoism and gnosticism
Not very read in those but as far as I can surmise taoism is the Chinese formulation of non-dual absolutism, which would make it doxographically similar to Mahayana Buddhism or the Advaita schools of Hinduism. Gnosticism is largely known through hostile writings but it seems to have been dualistic, e.g. manichean
>everything is interpreted by the mind and that there is for all intents and purposes no "external" reality to that which the conscious observer perceives. Am I wrong?
That's the particular view of the yogacara or vijñanavadin schools, in which mind is the ground of delusion but for soteriological purposes can be purified into quiescence.
