Hi Wu Ming Jen, Your principle is very forceful in uniting a jelly bean and a sEEd. When my sEEds leave my passion fruits they are on their own. - LimA 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When Marblehead saw a woman and asked what is that I sarcastically replied that it is a tiger and they are dangerous. After climbing the mountain back to the cave I asked Marblehead what did you like most about going to town. Marblehead replied the tiger. Hi Wu Ming Jen, Has Marblehead read the poem by William Blake? I wonder. - LimA 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi Wu Ming Jen, I am using jelly beans, sEEd and passion fruits so as not to offend anyone with graphical terms. But when we cannot touch actual base with our physical attributes for what they are - how can chi flow freely? What is "jing => chi => shen" ~ in the context of actual everyday living? I am now openly asking the Management of TDB - can I post a photo of human passion fruits? I have no malice aforethought - but words have limitations. - LimA Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wu Ming Jen Posted July 25, 2018 Hi LimA, Jing Chi and Shen we call them 3 but they are actually one. When one divides into 3 and become separate that is the problem. Vitality (jing) has the power to reproduce our actions in daily life like wake up, go to work, wash dishes, cook dinner, go to sleep, pay bills. If jing is strong we have the ability, the Chi to reproduce and complete all task necessary. When shen or spirit is in charge of all activities and non activity all is done with out error. Management would most likely frown upon photos of human passion fruit. , just saying. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi All, Without having to wait for a response from TDB, there will not be such a post. It will be an utter DISRESPECT for Lao Tzu and those of his ethnicity, among others. Also my ancestors will surely come into my dreams and cut away my passion fruits for disgracing the family name. In the dreams I will protest that I had been colonized and I champion freedom of the press. This will definitely follow - my ancestors will shaft my detached into my mouth to shut me up. In a strange sense I feel good about this post ~ I have found some of my cultural roots... - LimA P.S. No photo of human passion fruits but photos of passion fruit flowers ~ focus on the last frame.

Limahong Posted July 26, 2018 On 7/25/2018 at 7:04 PM, Wu Ming Jen said: ‘Yi’s’ greatest distinguishing feature is its transformations. Like with the sun and the moon, in the daytime the sun shines, and in the evening, the moon rises. Yang changes into Yin, Yin changes into Yang. The ‘Yi’ also follows this pattern with the Tai Chi diagram’s Yang unbroken lines “—” and Yin broken lines “–” , that is, Tai Chi gives birth to the two polarities of Yin and Yang. The two polarities give birth to the four divisions, the four divisions give birth to the eight trigrams, going one step further after the arrangement and composing of the eight trigrams the 64 hexagrams are generated. Hi Wu Ming Jen, Within some passion fruits are sEEds. - LimA 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
