How did Tai Chi and Eight Diagrams come from?

There is a famous saying in the Book of Changes "Ten Wings": "It is easy to have Tai Chi, which means that two instruments are born, two instruments are born with four elephants, and four elephants are born with gossip. Good or bad luck will lead to great cause."

Taiji refers to the chaotic state before the opening of the universe.

Two devices mean that the universe is divided into heaven and earth.

The four images mean that gold, wood, water and fire are born in heaven and earth.

Eight diagrams refer to heaven, earth, thunder, wind, water, fire, mountains and mountains.

Easy, everything starts from the details, from the simplest, as long as there is a slight change, it will lead to different States and different results.

Everything can be traced back to the movement of Tai Chi.

In Confucianism, the universe is naturally formed.

The answer given in Laozi is "Tao gives birth to one, two, three and everything".

The answer given in Yi Zhuan is "easy to have Tai Chi, which means that two instruments are born, two instruments are born with four elephants, and four elephants are born with gossip ...",

The answer given by Zhou Dunyi's Taiji diagram is "Infinite Taiji". Tai Chi moves to generate yang, moves to the extreme to generate static, and static to generate yin ... "

Everything in the universe develops from simplicity to complexity, from chaos to concreteness.

Zhou Dunyi's "Tai Chi Diagram" explains Yin and Yang in this way: "Tai Chi moves to produce Yang, moves to the extreme to be quiet, and static to produce Yin."

In the traditional Yi-ology, it is only roughly said that "Tai Chi gives birth to two instruments", that is, Tai Chi gives birth to Yin and Yang, which makes people feel that Tai Chi is divided into two parts.

"Taiji Illustration" brilliantly explains the causes of Yin and Yang from the perspective of movement: Tai Chi movement produces Yang when moving, stops when moving to the extreme, produces Yin, then moves again when stopping, and produces Yin and Yang continuously when stopping. So since there are many yin and yang, there is a relationship between yin and yang, and five basic substances are produced, namely water, fire, wood, gold and earth, which are the five elements. There is a symbiotic relationship between the five elements: wood fires, fire produces soil, soil produces gold, gold produces water, and aquatic wood completes a cycle, which is endless, so there are four seasons: spring, summer, autumn and winter.
