This term describes a poetic work which has attained the sublime state of natural appeal. First put forward by late-Tang poet Sikong Tu as a term of poetry discourse, it originates from the nature-revering aesthetic of Daoism and embodies a fundamental tenet of the theory of Chinese art. Sikong Tu championed the aesthetic principle of perfect naturalness and listed it as one of the twenty-four styles of poetry. Perfect naturalness is an ideal natural state of beauty created by poets, and also a conscious exertion sought by them in poetic composition. This notion stands in contrast to the imitation theory in Western aesthetic tradition. It seeks to achieve oneness between the poet and all lives in the universe, and at the same time maintains the individual creativity above all other lives.
