Taiji Atlas (Philosophical Classics in China Traditional Culture)

Taiji Atlas is one of the philosophical classics in China traditional culture. It is the basis of Tai Ji Chuan Theory and an important part of China culture. Taiji Atlas shows the core idea of Taiji philosophy in graphic form, that is, the mutual transformation, interdependence and restriction of Yin and Yang, which is a treasure in China culture.

The Significance of Taiji Atlas

Tai Chi album is a black and white pattern with a circle in the middle. Inside the circle, there is a white point and a black point. White dots are in the black part and black dots are in the white part. There are two fish-eye patterns outside the circle, one black and one white, with white spots in the black part and black spots in the white part. The center of the whole pattern is a gossip pattern, which is an important concept in China's traditional philosophy and represents the relationship between Yin and Yang of heaven and earth.

The meaning of Taiji Atlas is the transformation of Yin and Yang, interdependence and mutual restriction. The black and white colors in Taiji Atlas represent the Yin and Yang poles, which are mutually transformed, interdependent and restricted. White dots and black dots represent the mutual infiltration and transformation between yin and yang. The central gossip pattern of the whole pattern represents the relationship between heaven and earth, and the relationship between yin and yang in the gossip pattern is consistent with that in the Tai Chi album.

Operation steps of Taiji atlas

Taiji atlas is the basis of Tai Ji Chuan's theory, and Tai Ji Chuan is a kind of internal boxing, which emphasizes both internal and external training and uses both rigidity and softness to resolve attacks. Tai Ji Chuan's exercises need to be inspired by Tai Chi pictures. The following are the basic operation steps of Tai Ji Chuan:

1. Standing: Tai Ji Chuan needs to stand first, with feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent, body relaxed and breathing naturally.

2. Breathing adjustment: Tai Ji Chuan's practice needs breathing adjustment. The abdomen bulges outward when inhaling and contracts inward when exhaling.

3. Gestures: Tai Ji Chuan has many kinds of gestures, the most common of which are "single whip" and "raising hands".

4. Body movement: Tai Ji Chuan's body movement is a slow and smooth movement, which needs to be adjusted by the idea of mutual change of Yin and Yang in Tai Chi Atlas.
