Just What is the Yin and Yang of Life ?

Yin and Yang

To understand the ancient books of Oriental philosophy such as Taoism and the Tao Te Ching one has to understand Yin and Yang.

Yin and Yang is the continuous rhythm of life that continually pulsates through the universe, in the seemingly separate but in truth one complementary actions called Yin and Yang.

The T'ai-chi T'u diagram illustrates this principle. The symmetrical disposition of the dark Yin and the light Yang suggests cyclical changes.

When Yin reaches its climax, it recedes into Yang, then after Yang reaches its climax it recedes back to Yin. This is the ete
al cycle. The dots inside the white and black halves indicate that within each is the seed of the other. Yin cannot exist without Yang, and Yang cannot exist without the Yang.

The perfect state of things in the physical universe, under heaven in the world of humans, and the 10,000 things is a state of harmony represented by the balance of Yin and Yang.
