"The eternal Tao or great Tao had many names representing the idea that there is an eternal law or principle at work, underlying what appeared as a perpetually changing world in motion. Taoists referred to it by many names, including the Primal Unity and Source, the Cosmic Mother, the Infiite and Ineffable Principle of Life, the One. Tao has been referred to as the right, the moral order, the principle, the nature of life forces, the idea of the world, the method, ofr the way. Some even have translated it as God. Richard Wilhelm, the sinologist and translator fo the I Ching translated Tao as 'meaning.' In many respects, the concept of Tao resembles the Greek concept of logos. In modern translations of the New Testament into Chinese, logos is translated as Tao; the Gospel of St. John then opens, 'In the beginning was the Tao.'" --The Tao of Psychology: Synchronicity and the Self
