Yan understood the attraction of defining with opposites, be it in love, in a chemical interaction or in magnetism. Also he knew how flawed the defined opposite was and that opposites really just define the relative scale and nothing can exist at one polar extreme without containing an element of the other, at the very least in its polar definition.
‘There is no positive without negative. So even the extreme contains the other and any situation is the same, sitting not at an extreme but at one place in flux containing at least two possibilities. Where exactly will the next rain drop fall? – Answer. You can’t know! Boom – enlightenment! Realise you can’t predict the future; any reference from memory is flawed in relation to the future by factors at perception, storage, retrieval and application. Realise that the solution is not the goal; the goal is to remove questioning. Allow nature to flow and don’t try to predict or forcibly change for lust of a particular result. As you drift the flow will go everywhere it possibly can, enjoy the ride. Your desire will not alter the flow but leave you waiting for particular change or even without. You will be left missing what is on offer.
