This article introduces a Tao Complexity Tool for local and global public policy-making and analysis across a multiplicity of human affairs. This tool provides policy-makers with an understanding of the basic undergirding meta-dynamics in complex situations. Rather than dissecting a situation into discrete material components and examining each component separately, this tool helps policy-makers induce a paradigm envisioning the whole as an energy-being. The energy-being, an abstraction, is a system of activating forces in constant interwoven motion emerging from the past into the present, as a manifestation of observable patterns. Understanding the energy in an at-the-moment being contributes to knowing and informs policy-making of becoming. This article, briefly describing the tool, provides its philosophical foundation, language basics for communicating thoughts, and examples illustrating its use in policy-making practice.
