Dudeism is a religion, philosophy, or lifestyle inspired by "The Dude", the protagonist of the Coen Brothers' 1998 film "The Big Lebowski".  Dudeism's stated primary objective is to promote a modern form of Chinese Taoism, outlined in "Tao Te Ching" by Laozi (6th century BC), blended with concepts from the Ancient Greek philosopher Epicurus (341–270 BC), and presented in a style as personified by the character of Jeffrey "The Dude" Lebowski, a fictional character portrayed by Jeff Bridges in the film.  Dudeism has sometimes been regarded as a mock religion due to its use of comedic film references and occasional criticism of religion in its traditional sense.  However, its founder and many adherents take the underlying philosophy seriously.  March 6 is the annual sacred high holy day of Dudeism: The Day of the Dude.
