The flow of the universe

The Tao is the essence or pattern that keeps the universe balanced and ordered.

The greater whole

The Tao is the non-dualistic principle from which all elements of the universe derive.

The life-giving force

The Tao is the eternal, life-giving force of the universe.
The order of nature

The Tao is the order of nature that brought all things into existence and governs their actions.

Taoism teaches that all living things should live in harmony with the universe and its energy. It encourages people to embrace what they discover in life, rather than fighting for what they want. Taoism also emphasizes the idea that we are all deeply connected, and that everything that takes form is an expression of the Tao.
