Yin Yang numerical expression

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

I was wondering if there were a numerical expression for Yin and Yang it

might be naught or if you like zero.

 

If I think of the planet earth and I think of the two poles of north and

south, of the one earth (hence the number zero), then they are in

relationship to each other as extreme opposites, winter on one is summer on

the other etc. So Yin and Yang may simply be locating a viewing point on

horizon of events relative to time. Outside of time there is eternity, and

only unity or oneness.... so I have been taught to believe .... but not

necessarily so. In such a belief one might view all things as one and hence

no yin yang movements....but getting back to zero within time frame....

 

Any where between the two poles is a shift of perspective between the two

extremes until I get to the Equator. Such change along these perspectives

shifts the yin and yang dynamic. So on the poles we have 24 hour days of

light and dark yearly... and at the Equator with have 12 hours of light and

dark daily/yearly. And everything in between.

 

This relationship is reflected in the sub sets of yin and yang as expressed

in each local ecology. No right or wrong, just different yin and yang

cycles. If I went to the Nth pole at December 22, for just one day I might

describe it as a place of darkness... of course I would be wrong in the

bigger cycle of events, but quite correct at my one and only time of

viewing.

 

Another way to express this is the see saw, as Yang ascends Yin descends,

but it is the one see saw, in this instance kept in relationship balance by

the Newtonian laws.

 

So as zero I am thinking that whilst there is the one thing being

considered, there is only a series of perspectives of viewing that one

thing. A yin/yang perspective is not a thing, it is perhaps only a

perspective of a thing; ie is the cup half full or half empty, not how much

water is in the cup (a quantitative measurement).

And whenever I talk about the subject I always

raise the question of what number most

accurately reflects the value structure of

yin and yang? In other words if yin/yang are

equal to some number, what is that number?
