Shiyao Liu-statement

Whether it is the influence of Taoism in traditional culture due to living in China since childhood, or the education of contemporary society that Shiyao received while growing up?

The fact that Go is taken from nature and ground into powder to return to nature, the concept of the cycle of all things in the Tao Te Ching, and the inevitable human civilization that will exist because of the accident of the Big Bang, all these are gradually constructing the logic of how she understands the world.

All things are in a large cycle.
