Contrary to Western culture where our view of nature is influenced by the Judao-Christian belief that "man is master over beasts" and nature is something that must be overcome and dominated, the Chinese word for nature, 自然 zì rán simply means "that which exists by grace of itself".

In Daoism ziran (自然), symbolizes harmony with the Dao as a pure expression of Wu wei (無爲), "acting spontaneously", and "flowing with the moment."
