    There are two ways of interpreting Qi in Zhang Zai’s philosophy. The first is gas. Gas, which has a physical form, and The Great Vacuity, which is invisible, consist of a pair of concepts. The second is the universe. Zhang Zai believed that the universe is the eternal transformation of Qi in its all forms, including The Great Vacuity.
    The most significant contribution of Zhang Zai to Chinese philosophy is his concern of qi as the basis of his ontocosmology. The qi or vital force is, according to Zhang Zai, the fundamental substance by which all processes of the universe can be explained.

    Zhang Zai's metaphysics is largely based on the Classic of Changes. According to Zhang, all things of the world are composed of a primordial substance called qi (also spelled Chi). For Zhang, qi includes matter and the forces that govern interactions between matter, yin and yang.
