Laozi first put forward the concept of "nature" to explain "Tao" and "virtue" and took it as the criterion of people's activities. Laozi holds that "man should manage the land, the land should manage the sky, the sky should manage the pipeline, and the Tao should manage the nature". Zhuangzi inherited Laozi's thought of heaven and man, and advocated that the purpose of life is to let nature take its course. After absorbing the concept of "nature", Taoism believes that the essence of "Tao" is nature, and the natural laws of Tao are imitated by the world.
Life is between heaven and earth, and the highest law of its behavior should also be to imitate Taoism and nature. Naturally, there is no fixed pattern. It biochemists everything, and everything grows naturally according to its own nature, without imposing factors, thus ensuring the harmony of nature.
When building roads, people should follow the natural nature of Tao, conform to the laws of natural changes in heaven and earth, respect the characteristics of all life in nature, and strive to maintain the harmony of nature. Don't force everything in the world, but conform to the natural law of things' occurrence and development. Be content, want Zhi Zhi, and have knowledge, so as to make your mind calm and your spirit sublimate.
