Tianzhi

Heaven is an artificial concept: "the highest will that cannot be violated" is a collection of human will and natural laws. Because the interests of people are in conflict with each other, the interests of people and nature are also in conflict (fundamentally), so this "providence" can be very intuitively embodied as "winning or losing, natural selection". Mohism finally died out, which can be understood as "Tianzhi")
