The True Meaning of the Yin Yang Symbol - A Map of the Universe ? 

Thank you Anjali !

Thanks a lot sofiangotrong ! Yes, it was a long arduous road to get to the final product. But worth it :)

I have written the theorem of everything. It is most similar to the YinYang and Socrates's "Theory of Forms". Short explanation - docs.google.com/document/d/1GCJlCn844x62IaP4ce2ADSu1M7cfMjLyrcZ0QqwdHAo/edit#heading=h.p60l7r1gokd1

Thank you for your feedback and for your view Darren ! And yes I agree, this symbol is quite scientific. And ancient cultures are no different then ours... they want to understand life and the cosmos :)

Thank you Victor. RU-vid is saturated with creators, so it's mega competitive for us newbies ! On top of that, its algorithm does not favour creators like me, who post less frequently (due to the length of time it takes to make a video!). Therefore, we have to self-promote on our personal social media, and we really bank on 'shares' and word of mouth from our viewers ! :D Thanks again for watching !

@Pangaea Republic I hear you on that... sometimes it does though...

@Pangaea Republic and that's an understatement ...

​@Pangaea Republic Yup. I have noticed... Oh? first time hearing of bitchute ... ?

@Pangaea Republic the home page looks sketchy, but that's probably me being biased. What makes you think it's sketchy ?

Thank you Chris E. And it is my pleasure to provide comprehensive educational videos :)

I'm glad you are! Thanks Sofia!

Thank you Melissa

Hi Kimball ! Thanks a lot for your comment and thanks for watching. I'm really happy that you'll be sharing this video with your students. I feel so honoured, wow ! Please share away !

yes of course - anyone who studies Chinese/Asian Medicine should study Yin and Yang very deeply and seriously. It is one of the main pillars for helping diagnose and treat diseases according to Eastern Traditions. I also enjoyed the video quite a lot.

Brendan Gillikin that’s awesome! I’m so happy to hear 🤗 thank you !

Thank you Ujjal ! And I like that message :)

Haha ! Thanks for those 5 YinYangs El Quango ! Much appreciated :)

You're welcome!

Thank you Pyhto's Prism ! I'm happy you are finding these videos valuable !

Thank you! Worked hard on this one :) Please share and thanks again for watching!

Thank you Ken ! And welcome aboard !

@@ChasingGods Chasing Gods greets from Indonesia 😊 anyway, i was thinking maybe you'll be interested in a topic called "Sekala & Niskala". Its a Balinese philosophy on dualism too, similar to Yin Yang. the literal translation is "Within time & Beyond time". Its nearly a lost concept though here in modern Indonesia. Only rural villages in bali still adopt this philosophy. Cheers 😀

Wow I like that saying "within time & beyond time" ! I've noted down this information. Thank you very much Ken, I appreciate that.

My pleasure, thanks for watching !

Great to hear! Thank you for subscribing! 🤗

My pleasure, thanks for watching Nerdy Walker. And yes, I totally agree with you. Humans are just so damn smart, and very self-reflective.

Thank you Ladypearldrumz!

Thank you Annie, I appreciate that. Getting deeper in the YinYang is in the bucket list

Wow Guyus, I really like your explanation on the yin yang. Thanks a lot for watching :) As for the Yijing, I'm really curious about it, and hope to one day make a video on it, specifically.

Thanks! And yes, that would be a good video topic! I had only briefly learned about these hexagram symbols from the Yijing in some type of documentary I had seen many years ago but forgot what they were called. Now I know thanks to your video. One of the main reasons I had developed an interest in them is because I remember there were certain hexagrams that were used to express the cycles of the seasons and of nature and of life, as you discussed, which I would like to incorporate into a large painting I hope to create one day, expressing my philosophical views. I will keep an eye out for it. No hurry though, whenever you comfortably get to it.

Thanks for watching Desy!

Welcome aboard Shireen!

Thank you Marcia !

Glad you found me! Thank you!

Thanks Lou! Yeah, the divination aspect had me turned off at first too 😆

@@ChasingGods I think seeing the I-Ching as a divination tool misses the point, it's like saying a crow-bar is a spatula (bad analogy but It's all I got at the moment). It is just so very much more than that. It's more like a paradigm in-and-of itself, a way of seeing the world that is really coherent. That you can "divinate" with it to me just amounts to you can see patterns in things and potential outcomes or problems. It isn't for building up or creating false hopes around superstition or anything, at least that's not what I see in it. Divination in general might be a clunky way of considering problems and possible outcomes, but the I-Ching is really deep making it maybe cumbersome but not clunky especially when compared to other things in that category.

@@loulasher I agree with you. The term 'divination' does the I-Ching injustice. In Greek mythology, goddesses of wisdom and justice were associated with the ability to prophecize because of the very things you mentioned. Thank you for inspiring me to finish the book ( I had started it but got carried away with unfinished tasks!). Thanks again for watching and for your input Lou!

Thanks for subscribing Amanda!

Thanks Sharmila, but not yet! Please share my content to help the channel grow! Thank you! 🙏🏼

You are veryyyyy welcome !

Thank you! 😃

@@ChasingGods I am the one that should thank you for creating such complete content . It is great to find channels and people that have the same interests and share their thoughts and knowledge online and that is what fascinates me about internet :)

(PS, Ying Yang Twins shouldn't count about what I know about the subject 😂)

@@tonytober ♪ Shake it like a salt shaker! ♫

Wow tonytober! I really appreciate your comment! Because that's exactly my goal; to explain complex ideas to the layperson. Thanks a lot for watching !

Thanks Vinay! I feel the same way

Tahnsk for watching Samuel!

@@ChasingGods Are you into the "I Ching"?

Thank you Kunal! 🌻

Thank you!

Thank you ! Yes me too, I definitely want go deeper into it, in the future. Especially the IChing stuff...

@@ChasingGods Why do Westerners not understand yin-yang-Emptiness? The music theory definition reveals the secret of the math. So Western math assumes a symmetric logic as commutative analytic geometry (irrational magnitude). Orthodox Pythagorean philosophy is actually the same as yin-yang-Emptiness as is the "three gunas of no guna" philosophy of India. All these come from music theory as noncommutative phase logic. So if the 1 is "c" and the octave as 2 is also C that is the Emptiness but since 3 does not line up with 2 then it is 2/3 as a subharmonic or Yang as C to F (subharmonic) and 3/2 as yang is C to G overtone harmonic. But the 1 as an octave can not be the same as the 3. So then the 2/3 is doubled back into the octave (in the West) - using a different 1 - from the 3. That is how symmetric irrational magnitude is created. Daoist Harmonics does not do this but instead does not try to line up the octave (1/2) with the Perfect Fifth (2/3). So then in Daoist music theory there is 9 as the first note from the lunar energy and then 2/3 as 6/9 and then take 4/3 or yin of the 6 so it's 8/6. And you just keep alternating yin and yang without doubling back in as a symmetric. Professor Patrick Edwin Moran goes into this. "The Chinese rule is very simple: Take 2/3 of the length of the open string, and put down a fret there. Then take 4/3 of that second length and put down a fret there. The third step is to take 2/3 of the last length, then 4/3, and so forth. Let's see how that works." users.wfu.edu/moran/G_tar2.html Now keep in mind - it does not have to be "string lengths" - originally it was pitch pipes. So also then you get infinite resonance. The West tries to cover up this as a "closed" system but then has to acknowledge this noncommutative logic - but instead calls it "time-frequency uncertainty." This means that the order of the measurement changes the value (again 2/3 is C to F while 3/2 is C to G). So Eddie Oshins working at Stanford Linear Accelerator Center - he also taught Wing Chun and he focused on quantum psychology research. Oshins realized the secret of Daoist Neigong training (internal martial arts) was precisely this "noncommutative phase" logic. So what this means is that there is an inherent Emptiness as non-local complementary opposites. Oshins realized that the actual hand movements in relation to the body are based on this yin-yang secret as noncommutative phase logic. www.quantumpsychology.com/ You can see his site for details. Another good example is the book "Taoist Yoga: alchemy and immortality." So for example for a male the upper body is yang and lower body is yin and the right hand is yin and left hand is yang. So by simply facing the right hand against the upper body you create a noncommutative phase of yin-yang and then the left hand faces the lower body - and that is yang-yin. So that inherently activates the energy as a non-local or non-dual (not-two) dynamic, creating a free flow of energy that can be stored up in the body. The left eye is yang shen but yin qi and the right eye is yin shen but yang qi. So you combine the two by rotating them with the eyes closed and that creates the Yuan Qi (or Emptiness or original qi). Plato in contrast argued that Two-ness was an inherent symmetry - he called it the "indeterminate dyad" and as his evidence he claimed the two eyes or two arms or two legs, etc. are obviously "symmetric." But NO - that is not true! So as Westerners then from learning the Pythagorean Theorem - we assume this irrational magnitude logic as being inherently symmetrical commutative logic. So that is why Westerners do not understand the true secret of yin-yang-Emptiness because in the West time is "contained" as a symmetric geometric measurement. In Daoism there is eternal "bipolar" energy from eternal time - we can not see the Emptiness but we can listen to it! thanks.

@@voidisyinyangvoidisyinyang885 Wow, thanks so much for your plenty and thorough input and the links provided! I will most definitely look into them further, and I'm sure other viewers will too !

@@ChasingGods Thanks for your interest. I finished my master's degree by doing intensive meditation training from springforestqigong.com Chunyi Lin who did the 49 day full lotus Daoist cave meditation (no sleep, no food, just full lotus meditation nonstop for 49 days) at Mt. Qingcheng where there is also qigongmaster.com Zhang, Yuanming of the Dragon Gate Complete Reality Daoist lineage. So a good book on that lineage - that I just reread - is "Opening the Dragon Gate" about Wang Liping, considered the "transmitter" of the Dragon Gate Neidan (alchemy) meditation. So anyway since I'm a Westerner - I first got interested in Daoism through music theory. I first realized a basic secret of Pythagorean meditation. Then I met qigong master Effie P. Chow of San Francisco - she did a presentation or qi-lecture at St. Mary's University in Minneapolis in 1995. She blew the fuse in the room behind her and I felt very strong qi energy between my palms. haha. So I went to S.F. in 1996 and I stayed with my high school friend James T. Hong. He drove me up to Portland and I discovered Dr. John Beaulieu's book on Biosonics - and he states the Perfect Fifth (3/2) is yang and the Perfect Fourth (4/3) is yin - of music theory. So that is also the same secret that I had realized from Pythagorean theory. But it was not till I discovered Fields Medal math professor Alain Connes that I corroborated my "secret" as he is the only one to emphasize that music theory is actually noncommutative phase logic (and therefore is also the secret of the Unified Field Theory). So I have a book on this called Ancient Advanced Acoustic Alchemy - it goes back to our original human culture that we are all from - the San Bushmen. So yeah my research is all free on my blog elixirfield.blogspot.com if you did see that already - you just scroll way down and on the left for my links to my free articles and books. I had to research a lot on my own because I did the intensive meditation training in 2000 but then I had a lot of after effects from the energy. So another good book on the traditional Daoist training - is the one I mentioned - that is free online. So it is archived but there is also a lineage with some websites from that teacher who was also part of the Dragon Gate lineage. Chunyi Lin has worked with the Mayo Clinic doctors - and so he did some qigong "external qi" healing research that was published in a peer-reviewed journal - with Dr. Ann Vincent of the Mayo Clinic. And also Dr. Nisha Manek co-authored a qigong chapter for the Mayo Clinic complementary medicine textbook. So now Dr. Nisha Manek has a new book published from her work with Professor emeritus William Tiller - on how Western science can try to explain Daoist qigong energy. So I did a lot of similar research - it requires the most advanced western science - relativistic quantum biology, essentially. haha. Anyway thanks for your video - it was very interesting as there were new connections for me. I suppose you are familiar with some of the already. My point is just based on the more abstract formal logic involved for yin-yang-Emptiness. For example for the male the left leg is yang and lower body is yin - so it is better to do full lotus with the left leg on top as this then stores up the energy. I did not know that even after my meditation training. So I was sitting in full lotus in public with my right leg on top - and I had a lot of qi energy going out of my pineal gland into people around me. I figured - well it is my body so then I can sit in full lotus if I want to. haha. Anyway it was an interesting experience. I also saw ghosts - so I know ghosts are for real, for a fact. And I experienced telekinesis and telepathy and precognition. So as Westerners we really have no idea what our untapped potential is and so I am very grateful to traditional Chinese culture for maintaining this amazing truth of reality. So now I am growing shiitake mushrooms in the forest - on logs - and I will sell them to the Chinese community here in Minnesota. thanks. Then also I can meditate more in the forest as my hermitage.

Thank you for watching and subscribing Sirajus!

Thank you Cafelogis ! Yes I agree with you, the things they were aware of is mindblowing. It is on my mind to do a video on a specific Shu or one on the Yijing (which has been praised by Carl Jung), but that would be sometime down the road... :)

@@ChasingGods I'll be waiting patiently, take your time for perfection haha.

Yes! I'm excited to read more about it too! Apparently, Carl Jung was a fan !

😊 thank you!

Thank you for watching Gunilla!

@tory porter Thanks for your suggestion. I'll have to watch it, and if it's feasible I will. Make sure to follow me on youtube or social media!

Thanks for watching K-popper !😃Yes, Chinese artists make sure that there's a balance in shade and depth in their paintings; it's fascinating. I also believe that many other artists do the same thing sub-consciously as well!

@@ChasingGods 🖤🖤also I subscribed to your channel immediately after watching this video. You're amazing 😊

Thank you Couch Potatoe ! I got you on the edge of your seat ? WOW ! I'm certainly doing something right then. Your comment means a lot to me :)

Thank you !

I'm happy you found it clear! Thanks for watching Linoy!

haha Thanks Robert !

Thank you Gurtaj ! And yes I agree with that Chemistry parallel! I see you have scientific mind, that's great ! Uhmmm.... are those binary numbers code for something ? lol

@@ChasingGods if you decode them using a BINARY CODE to Text decoder, it says "Excellent work!" 😎😊😊

@@gurtajchhabra4532 WOW! THANKS !!!

Happy you enjoyed it Anwesha!

You re welcome! ☺️

@@ChasingGods i just had an extremely intense psychedelic trip. At the peak of it, the Yin Yang symbol presented itself to me. Hence why I searched up this video. Thank you again.

Thanks!

Thank you Oscar !

Thanks Viatun! Basically, the ancient chinese categorized things into 5 elements. These elements overcome or generate each other. (red arrow is "overcoming", blue arrow is "generation") From the red arrow, you can see that water overcomes fire; water kills/puts away fire. Looking at the big table, you can see that the chinese thinkers put the "knowledge" in the water category, and "passion" in the fire category. According to the Wu Xing theory, "knowledge" kills/put away "passion". Mental quality is just one aspect. The ancient chinese also categorized organs, planets, senses... into the fire/water/metal/earth/wood elements.

Chasing Gods ❤️😊👍✌️

Chasing Gods thanks!

Thank YOU for watching!

Good for you, man. I wanted to make tattoo as well, but then I decided to write a verse ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-AzrISvXz8C8.html🙂
