  The chinese character tian represents the spirit of boldness and carefree To the ancient Chinese, however, Heaven was more inclined toward love and tolerance, punishing people only occasionally. Thus, our forebears were always grateful to Heaven.

  Tian is a sacred and fundamental concept in ancient Chinese philosophy. It has three different meanings. The first is the physical sky or the entirety of nature , the operations of which manifest certain laws and order. The second refers to a spiritual being, which possesses an anthropomorphic will and governs everything in the universe. The third denotes the universal law, which is observed by all things and beings, and which is also the basis of human nature, morality, and social and political orders.

  Heaven is the source of life creation, the conscious personality God, and the natural process of life creation. It contains an internal purpose, that is, all things grow, nurture all things, protect life and improve life.
