I think I could call it also karma or the first sin of mankind.
Example:
It will seem unfair for us to be killed as helpless civilian in a war by some random soldiers, but for the Dao it's indifferent and probably a nuance.
Life has to be taken to give death a chance. Everything alive will once seize.
Death is life itself, it's the beginning and end.
Before you were born, you were for an endless amount of time dead. After your end you will be join this fate again, but energy doesn't seize and can't be created, it will only transform to something different.
Extreme meme example:
Lets say you wished to become immortal and it became true, pretty cool huh? No worries to die anymore, enough time to do anything you want. But ever thought about everyone you currently know will die, no one will remember you, you have to remember them, after a catastrophe mankind does not exist anymore, but you are still there, alone.
Billion years later the sun will expand, the planet Earth will not exist anymore, you will be forever in space with the everlasting pain of freezing and suffocating... Still dope.
Our planet and we humans are only part of the macrocosm of this universe, perhaps even more insignificant. Nothing we do will be remembered besides of us, but there were always some exceptions.
Good or evil as a concept does not exist, it's a fake concept which only can be fulfilled in fiction media.
We humans can only judge dirrectly by the doings of one person, we can't tell what the universe has planned for this invidium.
Example:
In this timeline Adolf Hitler nearly drowned when he was four years-old but was saved by a local priest, was the priest really a life saver?
Our mind and the one of some kinds of animals is the special trait which makes us still relevant on a cosmic scale. We are capable to bend reality, take it it for granted.
