The Fundamental Principle of Change
All existence is born of Mother Earth’s virtue,
full of shy innocence.
Release, dispersion, spirit, and dao
this is the grand order and law of change.
The qi of spring is release.
The qi of summer is dispersion.
The qi of autumn is spirit.
The qi of winter is dao.
I govern the grand order of heaven and earth's four seasons
through qi.
This is the sublime dao mastery of fathoming the mind.

The basic process of all creation looks so simple but not easy to understand.
The source of all creation is in full of shy innocence; pure empty.
From there, all starts to be released, dispersed then, spirit???
What is spirit? SJN said that spirit is ultimate manifestation of heavenly logic.
Oh,,, Great Realization here!
Then, Dao,,, Dao is the root of all creation like winter tree.
Um,,, The qi of autumn is spirit. What does it mean? The character of autumn's energy is related with spirit. Why? it's maybe such a clear and transparent so everything could be perceived clearly like spirits do.
