The “Tao”  or “Dao”  is a character that denotes a road, a principle or a doctrine.  The meaning conveyed by the character Tao is the continuous progression and unfolding of nature along its evolutionary path.  The character Tao  can also be constructed from the phrase ‘mu zi tou shou chuo’, which is comprised of characters meaning “to see”, “self”, “head”, “understand” and “way”, respectively. 

Thus we may comprehend tao  as “the way one comes to see and understand oneself.”
