Daoist Perspectives on Chinese and Global Environmental Management
The Culture Mandala, 4 no. 2, November 2001. Copyright © Rosita Dellios 2001 Daoist Perspectives on Chinese and Global Environmental Management(1) by Rosita Dellios The Yin and Yang of Hardship and Hope Asked about the conditions of life for farming women in China, a rural magazine editor, Xie Lihua, said: "It's a life of hardship but they have hope. But there is hope in China's predicament. Fig. 1: Yin-Yang Symbol Strategies for Survival Specifically, Daoism realigns the politics of power over nature to a relationship of cooperation, Confucianism concerns itself with the cultivation of harmonious human relations, and Buddhism instructs on behaviours conducive to survival of the biosphere.(7) How to survive and prosper among the 'myriad things' of Earth in accordance with the moral law of Heaven forms the crux of Chinese strategic philosophy.(8) 'Seek truth from the facts,' exhorted Deng Xiaoping in a return to traditional Chinese pragmatism.

Taoism - Ageless Wisdom for a Modern World - Part 3
Taoism’s central organizing principle is the interconnectedness of all life with its flow of continuous change. Nowhere is this idea expressed in such a unique and exquisite manner as in the concept of yin-yang, which describes the underlying unity of life through the interplay of opposites. Taoist writings state that all things and all processes contain two primal energies or forces. These two basic aspects of manifestation often are described as masculine and feminine, light and dark, negative and positive, creative and receptive. The original meaning of the term signified the light and dark sides of a mountain. Our common English-language expression, "there are two sides to everything," expresses this concept quite succinctly. From a Taoist point of view, however, these two polar opposites are not seen as distinctly separate or in conflict, but rather as interdependent and complementary. The idea of change leading to harmonious balance underlines another aspect of yin-yang.
