Tao Science, co-founded by Dr. and Master Zhigang Sha and Dr. Rulin Xiu, merges the profound teachings of Tao with quantum physics, offering a unified theory to study consciousness and life at the quantum level.
Tao Technology, created by Dr. and Master Sha, provides innovative, science-based approaches to promote mental wellness, unlocking new possibilities for profound transformation.

Keynote Speakers

Dr. Rulin Xiu
Quantum Physicist, String Theorist & Co-Founder of Tao Science
Dr. Rulin Xiu
In this conference, Dr. Xiu will unveil groundbreaking insights into the quantum mechanisms underlying life and health, emphasizing the crucial role of the quantum field and quantum information—especially positive information—in promoting well-being. Her research reveals that positive information within one's quantum field, characterized by connection, order, and harmony, enhances life and health. Conversely, negative information, marked by disconnection, disorder, and disharmony, contributes to illness and challenges. Health professionals, who are frequently exposed to patients' negative information, are more susceptible to sickness and imbalances, highlighting the need for increased support and self-care.
Dr. Xiu's presentation will offer a scientific blueprint and innovative technology aimed at guiding health professionals toward improved health, well-being, and the capacity to deliver exceptional care to their clients.
Dr. Peter Hudoba
Director of Research, Sha Research Foundation
Dr. Peter Hudoba
During this conference, Dr. Peter Hudoba will share his vast expertise in both conventional and integrative medicine, offering a deep exploration of how integrating mind, body, and spirit supports overall health.
With decades of experience, Dr. Hudoba will discuss how holistic practices can help healthcare providers manage stress and burnout. He will highlight the importance of nurturing the body’s natural capacities to foster resilience, balance, and well-being. As part of the Sha Research Foundation, where he has spent 24 years advancing research in integrative medicine, Dr. Hudoba brings a wealth of knowledge to the event.
The Sha Research Foundation team is thrilled to invite researchers, clinicians, and other healthcare providers to join this conference as presenters or participants. The goal is to exchange ideas, share techniques, & explore strategies in the field of integrative medicine, with a focus on maintaining a healthy approach to medical practice.
We look forward to welcoming you to Toronto, November 30–December 1, 2024, to discover innovative approaches to stress, burnout management & holistic wellness.

Tao Technologies
What is Tao?
“Tao” is the name given by Lao Zi, author of the Dao De Jing, for the Ultimate Source and Creator of everything that exists. Since all things come from Tao, the essence and qualities of Tao are in everyone and everything. Tao is oneness, and has a quantum field of the highest frequency and vibration, with the most positive information, energy, and matter.
What is a Tao Field?
In quantum physics, a “field” is something that extends over space and time. It is invisible to the human eyes, but it exists on a quantum level as a vibrational field made of various energetic vibrations. A Tao Field is a Source Field consisting of the highest frequency and vibration of Tao Source. A profoundly powerful Tao Field (Source Field) is created when several of Master Sha’s Tao Calligraphies are gathered and spiritually activated within one single space (physical or virtual). When the Tao Field is activated, you can receive high-level blessings and positive information from it to raise your frequency and vibration. This may help you to clear challenges or blockages in many aspects of your life, and to elevate your wellbeing.
What is Tao Calligraphy?
Dr. & Master Sha’s Tao Calligraphy is a unique transformative art that combines 5,000 years of wisdom and practice. During the writing of a Tao Calligraphy, Master Sha connects with Tao Source in a profound way and imbues it with the frequency, vibration, love, light, and positive information of Tao Source. Connecting with Tao Calligraphy can help elevate your health, relationships, and life to new levels.
What is a Tao Transmission?
A Tao Transmission is a high-frequency spiritual light and energy transmitted to a person by Dr. & Master Sha or his Leading Teachers. It is a spiritual empowerment and activation, carrying a specific intention and focus to support you on your path. Think of it as a personal spiritual tool that you can activate and use at any time for support, nourishment, and upliftment. Each Tao Transmission carries positive frequency, vibration, energy, and matter, and can help transform negative blockages in your physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual health. Transmissions can also focus on aspects of life such as career, relationships, business, and finances. Once received, your Tao Transmission stays with you for life.

Master Sha’s Service
Dr. and Master Zhi Gang Sha, a Tao Grandmaster, world-renowned healer and teacher, has dedicated his entire life to embodying the wisdom of service and transformation. His life's mission is to serve humanity by empowering others to achieve greater health, happiness and flourishing through the ancient wisdom teachings and sacred practices he shares.
As the creator of Tao Calligraphy, Master Sha holds a unique position in the world of healing through transformative and ancient art. In 2016, he was appointed National Chinese Calligrapher Master by the State Ethnic Academy of Painting, one of the highest honors in China, for his creation and mastery of Tao Calligraphy. As the sole lineage holder of Yi Bi Zi calligraphy writing, passed down from Professor Li Qiuyun, Master Sha continues to carry this ancient tradition, which was also taught to the royal court of China’s last emperor.
Master Sha is a former MD in China, having completed his studies at one of China's most prestigious medical universities. His approach to healing integrates his mastery of several ancient Eastern arts—Qi Gong, Tai Chi, Kung Fu, I Ching, Feng Shui, and Chinese Calligraphy—with his expertise as a doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine in both China and Canada. His methods offer profound holistic transformation, not just for the mind and energy, but for the whole being: soul, heart, mind, energy and body as an integrated system of information.
A living Tao Grandmaster, Master Sha brings powerful Tao Source healing frequencies through his Tao Technologies, to uplift and heal humanity. His influence extends globally, with 11 of his 31 books reaching New York Times bestseller status, some also featured on the Wall Street Journal, USA Today and Amazon bestseller lists.
Master Sha's spiritual lineage is as remarkable as his healing methods. As the 373rd lineage holder of Peng Zu, a revered Taoist saint and the Chinese “Longevity Star,” Master Sha carries forward a 5,000-year-old tradition of spiritual wisdom in this modern age. Master Sha’s humanitarian work is equally significant. After founding the non-profit Love Peace Harmony Foundation, he received global recognition for his efforts in promoting world peace, including the Martin Luther King, Jr. Commemorative Commission Award in 2006.
Master Sha’s transformative healing practices, including his Tao Calligraphy, have been featured in public television documentaries and are the focus of the full-length film “Soul Masters: Dr. Sha and Dr. Guo,” further illustrating his profound impact on the world.
