Zhuang Zi believed that the greatest achievement in a society was to do “action without action, govern by governing nothing (wu-wei).” This encouraged action so perfect that everything followed its natural course, and there was no visible trace of the author; and it was fully in tune with the original nature of the world—the Dao.
