Small has no inside. big has no outside-Martial Arts (Qigong)

Nowadays many scientists spend a lot of their nation's money trying to extend the frontiers of
knowledge. They want to know what is 'on the inside'. They have broken things down into
molecules, atoms and electrons, smaller and smaller particles, and even sub-atomic particles. Each time they think they have found the smallest 'thing', they find another even smaller. And each time they look they find something different. It is as though these things create themselves. Modern scientists spend their working lives trying to discover new things such as the smallest or the biggest.
But four thousand years ago the Chinese said in the YiJing, 'Small has no inside, big has no outside', and also: 'From nothing comes something.'I do not know much about science, but I do know my culture Chinese culture, which has survived for thousands of years. The principles of Yin and Yang, the Wu Xing, Five Elements, and Bagua tell us the principles of the universe. I call it 'Chinese Science' and, like Chinese medicine, it is totally different from that of the West. We use herbs which come from the earth, which is where we all From nothing comes something.
come from. We use acupuncture, moxibustion and massage to stimulate different areas of the body to keep it balanced, and we practise Qigong to keep ourselves healthy, strong and vital.
We know everything must be natural. This is different from the way the West thinks. The
scientists keep looking for the smallest things only to find something smaller inside, so then they
look for the biggest things only to keep finding bigger things…So they go on and on and never stop, but they miss the principle of the universe and the relationship between big and small: 'Small has no inside, big has no outside.' What is small? What is big? It is only when you put them together that one is big and one is small.
If we understand Yin and Yang we know that if we see one side' then there must be another to
balance it, otherwise it cannot exist (unless it is the centre).
There is only one centre which is steady and stable -for example, we have only one nose and one mouth, which are at the centre of the face,but we have a pair of eyes and a pair of ears, which are not at the centre.
We live on a planet and we know that we are not at the centre of the universe. So this means there must be some other planet the same as ours in the universe, because we exist according to the principle of Yin and Yang. By developing this principle, and dividing it by two, we get the 'four images' as follows:



Together with the centre (which connects them all together) they become the Five Elements. So if one day you see a UFO or if we discover another human planet, don't be suprised!
