Description

In traditional Chinese cosmology, which includes contributions from Confucianism, Daoism, Buddhism, and other folk beliefs, the world consists of the heaven above, the earth below, and humans in the middle. The universe and all beings share the basic essence, and all are governed by the same set of principles that not only transcend but also correspond across categories and dimensions. Aspects of the natural world and different dimensions of human existence are categorized according to the shared principles of yinyang and five phases, (1) and juxtaposed. Across dimensions and existences those that fall under the same categories share a common set of characteristics and would resonate. In other words, human beings are connected to nature because they correspond with the patterns of heaven and earth, and resonate with the cycles and movements in the environment. Aside from corresponding patterns, it is also believed that all in the cosmos are composed of and function by the shared life force called qi. Health, whether it is human health or environmental health (in Chinese terms, good fengshui (2)), is qualified by unobstructed and balanced flow of qi.
