Taoism portal

Wuji (無極) is the primordial state of non-being, a state of Nothingness and boundlessness or that which is without Bounds or Limits. Wuji like Tao, is and lies within all of the universe and in the human anatomy. It is the central definition to what Tao is in chapter one of the Tao Te Ching.

In Xiuzhen, Wuji or Dao is a state of Hunyuan Yiqi (混元一ç‚) in which Hunyuan is the Chinese equivalent of primordial, Yiqi is the one qi the original state of qi, together Hunyuan Yiqi is loosely the primordial qi. The state of Taiji is Xiantian Yiqi (先天一ç‚), or pre-birth qi. Note the word Qi (ç‚) differs to blood circulation in qigong.

[edit] Taiji and Transcendence

In the Chinese creation myth , Wuji took shape and became Taiji, a state of being before creation, the world according to Taoist became intelligible and fathomable after which. Taiji may be equated to the One, Oneness, Unity, in chapter thirty-nine of Tao Te Ching (see text reference, in Daozang or other Taoist texts as attaining One or Unity (得一) ^[1].

Taiji in comparison would be the ultimate truth. And Taiji would be the Absolute in metaphysics and in teleology.
