The Ayodhya Alliance by Ashwin Sanghi in a section tells about the two fishes who are moving in either direction! The Abstract image of that is one of the most famous symbols in China and now all over the world!
You would have seen this symbol as the black and white circular disc representation and the concept is really deep!
The concept is the universal concept of Yin and yang!
Often seen in many cultures and traditions this is a fundamental concept in ancient Chinese philosophy that describes two opposing yet complementary and interconnected cosmic forces, represented by the familiar black and white symbol.
It explains how seemingly opposite forces are interdependent and how they are in a constant, dynamic state of balance and transformation!
You must understand that they are not absolute opposites but complementary forces, like dark and light, female and male, or passive and active. They rely on each other to exist!
It is actually a representation that nothing is static; everything is in a constant state of flux and transformation!
The concept has been applied to many fields, including astronomy, medicine, and even understanding human behavior, to achieve a state of balance.
The interesting connection between the Chinese Yin-Yang concept and Indian thought of Ardhanarishvara is the principle of dualistic and complementary forces!
In Hinduism, this is most famously represented by the masculine-feminine divine pair Ardhanarishvara or the Shiva and Shakti which predates the Chinese concept!
Both systems use these dualities to explain the creation and balance of the universe, with Yin being passive and feminine and Yang being active and masculine, similar to how Shakti is the dynamic, creative energy and Shiva is the static, receptive void, though the specific associations of male and female can be reversed.
Both traditions describe the universe as being formed by two opposing yet interdependent forces. One cannot exist without the other, and their harmonious interaction creates the whole!
Both systems use these concepts to explain the creation of the universe and the balance of nature, health, and life itself!
A good balance also are movies by Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri…
