What do you know about the Yin Yang Symbol?

[Fa Hui]

How can you listen to fa hui or onesping and no one else for 2 years?

'Cause we da shit foo.

Better recognize!

[mbokohutu]

I can bring it back.

With Fa's permission of course.

Personally, I thought it was hysterical also. But, personal attacks really should not be tolerated.

Hypocrite. What do you call this message by Fa Hui?

"Because he's a psycho."

Nothing has changed here. Gone....9 months? the same mental midgets are still posting, doc is still a hypocrite, and any forum devoted to kung fu is empty. The only forums with posts are the gossip ones. Current events....DocHatesMe.....you know.

I bet you if you changed the forums to Doc's gossip forums, you would attract a lot more people than just the 3 that have been here posting for the past 2 years. Don't you ever get the urge for variety? How can you listen to fa hui or onesping and no one else for 2 years?

It's not like the Tai Chi, Chi Gong, or any other kung fu forums ever gets used. They just take up space on the forums list. No one would even miss the kung fu forums if you deleted them and added more gossip forums.

i thought it was funny

"Hey asshole, anytime you wanna fight, you let me know."

that is funny to

Why would you want to fight an asshole? Won't you end up smelling like poop?

[Fa Hui]

You know, after a good nights sleep, looking back on it, it was pretty damn funny.

"Hello, I'm Fa Hui and I am looking for sex."

Hell yeah, good thing I got a beautiful woman who I love very much and who loves me in return for that to happen.

Hey HappyHomo, you must be pretty lonely and retarded to waste your time on this. I'm sorry, however, I'm just not into dudes. LOL

[doc]

On second thought, after looking at it again, it truly was ****ing hysterical.

[doc]

I can bring it back.

With Fa's permission of course.

Damn you Doc for deleting that picture. That was comedy gold.

[zachsan]

LOL... Absolutely ****ing hilarious... I knew it would come to this. Once upon a time He would show us diagrams describing the nature of the Universe... now The Wise One presents images with captions that begin with, "Hi. My name is Fa Hui and I am looking for sex."

I've got an idea, let's play a game! One of these people is an ex-monk, and the other has an all too well-documented history on Internet messageboards which makes it fairly clear he's a repressed homosexual who's channeled his frustrations into a creepy personal vendetta against the practice of masturbation!! Which is which??

...In that the first represents a kind of spiral, with the two dividing lines originating from a definite point in the middle, whereas the classic Yin-Yang symbol, the second image, has no hard point in the middle where both "shades" meet, but only curves...

Someone can put an answer right in your own mouth and brain, and you still can't see it.

No wonder none of you understand my videos. They are just sounds and pictures. Someone went to the trouble of inserting an answer in this man's brain, and he still doesn't get it.

[doc]

Maybe he likes fondling his own breasts.

Do you actually believe that? It's a great theory, however, maybe a little more complicated than what the average Chinese in the Shaolin area could understand.

I'm having trouble understanding it...

No, but it makes for some good discussions.

[doc]

Yea, I figured that out. (Not that you need to stop eating speed on Tuesdays..)

What I didn't understand, is how some Chinese from thousands of years ago, figured out to make a circular time line like this. Seems like a pretty advanced way of thinking, especially for a people in villages, whom I find now, to be very uneducated and kind of regimental in their thought processes.

The rest of that web site is interesting though, especially the horoscope part about my favorite politician, Barack Hussein. Love that stuff...

[zachsan]

Same here... I always wonder when I read these things if they make any more sense in a Chinese language...

Sometimes it's called Tai-Chi symbol. The Tai-Chi is from I-Ching. The I-Ching is the greatest foundation of Chinese philosophy. It’s development is from the natural phenomena of our universe. Because I-Ching comes from nature, it should be easy.

Even pretending to follow that logic, I'm not sure what exactly is supposed to be easy...

Allow me to think out loud (uh, in print) for a bit...

an 8-foot (Chinese measurement) pole,

Nonsensical... how long is a Chinese foot?... semantics maybe....

Alright, I think I've finally wrapped my mind around what this article is getting at. The point at the center of the circle doesn't represent the pole... The circle is a kind of time graph showing the length of the shadow of the pole, with the measurement starting chronologically at the first of the 24 cycles mentioned previously in the article, extending from the outside of the circle inward until the Winter Solstice, at which point the length of the shadow spans the entire radius. Then, the measurement is (for some reason) recorded from the central point of the circle rather than the outside and shrinks inward. (Apologies for taking so long with that, alcohol is to blame...)

Anyway that's all pointless because there seems to be a fundamental discrepancy. This:



Is obviously a lot different from this:



...In that the first represents a kind of spiral, with the two dividing lines originating from a definite point in the middle, whereas the classic Yin-Yang symbol, the second image, has no hard point in the middle where both "shades" meet, but only curves...

This makes it hard to believe that the Yin-Yang we all know and love represents anything cosmological or mathematical, unless someone along the line decided to discard the central meaning of the symbol for aesthetic value.

...I have got to learn to stop eating speed on Tuesday nights. That is all.
