   With ziran, aka tzu-jan, things are of-themselves-so.   
      
   The same situation occurs in terms of acausality.   
   Cause-effect goes out the window.   
      
   There's no need for deity to exist in such a paradigm.   
      
   Some people don't appear to be able to accept   
   how cause-effect can be a template. For them, it's a reality.   
   It's their reality. And it's the one and only one, Reality, for them.
