Within molecular clouds are regions with higher density, where lots of dust and gas cores reside, called clumps. These clumps are the beginning of star formation, if gravity can overcome the high density and force the dust and gas to collapse.
Taoism [is] the way of man's cooperation with the course or trend of the natural world, whose principles we discover in the flow patterns of water, gas, an fire, which are subsequently memorialized or sculptured in those of stone and wood, and, later, in many forms of human art. (From Tao: The Watercourse Way).
The term âDaoismâ is also associated with assorted naturalistic or mystical religions. Sometimes the term âLao-Zhuang Philosophyâ is used to distinguish the philosophical from the more religious âHuang-Laoâ (Yellow Emperor-Laozi) strain of Daoist thought.
