Puisque le concept de yin-yang est une génération harmonieuse de forces opposées, l'essence naturelle des choses est constituante. Ainsi, il n'y a rien qui soit totalement yin ou totalement yang. Le yin et le yang ne sont ni exclusifs ni conflictuels, mais complémentaires l'un à l'autre et, bien qu'ils soient opposés, l'un ne peut exister sans l'autre. 2, record 2, French, - yin%2Dyang
