Description
Book Introduction
The theory of yin and yang and the five elements explained in an easy-to-understand manner by a young oriental medicine doctor
Anyone interested in Oriental studies has probably browsed through books to study this useful and fascinating theory of yin-yang and the five elements.
But when you actually open the book, it's full of Chinese characters you don't know, and you can't find any joy in learning about yin-yang and the five elements. It's full of only vague theories about essentialism.
This book is written by two young doctors of Oriental medicine who, having entered the world of oriental studies, were lost in the fog and were struggling. Based on their long-term research and experience, it explains the theory of yin-yang and the five elements with easy and fun examples.
Yin and Yang are the order inherent in all things, and the Five Elements are the five steps that Yin and Yang take.
In the East, this gait is called wood, fire, earth, metal, water, and is called the Five Elements.
This book, which explains the theory of yin-yang and the five elements, consists of two volumes: the yin-yang section and the five elements section, of which the five elements section is the most recent.
In Chapter 1 of this book, “What are the Five Elements?”, we look at our general thoughts about the Five Elements and provide a general explanation.
Chapter 2 examines the basic concepts of the Five Elements in detail, and Chapter 3, “The Dance of the Five Elements,” explains the definitions and characteristics of Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water, respectively, and explores these concepts in more detail.
In Chapter 4, “Growing Through Fighting,” we learn about the relationships and realities of the five elements, and in Chapter 5, “The World Unfolded by the Five Elements,” we learn how the five elements are applied to reality.
And in the last chapter 6, “What is Constitution?”, we compare the five elements and constitution and learn about constitution.
Through understanding the Five Elements in Chapter 6, we will be able to enter into the natural order that exists before artificial forms.

Into the book
“When I run, I want to walk, when I walk, I want to rest, when I rest, I want to sit, and when I sit, I want to lie down.
And when I lie down, I want to sleep.” But it doesn’t end there.
It is our nature to want to wake up when we sleep.
It is also our nature to want to sit down when we wake up.
[…] This change of heart is something that anyone can feel, and it can be said to be a ‘nature that does not want to stay’ in one world.
It is this very ‘nature that does not want to stay’ that dynamically moves the four steps of birth, growth, and storage.
The 'nature that does not want to stay' is the protagonist who brings about change by hiding within without being biased towards any of the four gaits.
This nature is another form of gait hidden within the four gaits, and is named 'Hwa (化)'.
It means change.
The mind of a person wearing a mask and dancing is called 'hwa', and that mind does not stick to just one type of dance, but tries to change into various ways according to a set order.
So, the process of the universe flowing is the combination of growth and transformation, wearing four masks and taking five steps.
The universe exists as the Supreme Ultimate and is experiencing the competitive action of yin and yang.
When yang is exhausted, yin begins, and when yin is exhausted, yang begins.
Yin and Yang are constantly circulating.
If you unfold yin and yang, it is divided into the four images, and if you combine the earth, which is the node of the four images, it is divided into the five elements.
The five elements circulate in the order of wood, fire, earth, metal, and water.
However, the five elements do not revolve on their own.
It is possible to turn by the effort of two feet (sangsang, sanggeuk) that walk in five steps.
Symbiosis and antagonism push and pull behind each step, helping us maintain an appropriate stride.
[…] Just as the universe and all things can only exist through the unity of yin and yang, nothing exists without the interplay of the two forces of mutual creation and mutual inhibition.
All phenomena and things in the world can be interpreted through the principle of mutual generation and mutual inhibition.
And when I lie down, I want to sleep.” But it doesn’t end there.

It is also our nature to want to sit down when we wake up.

The theory of yin-yang and the five elements is not a difficult and mysterious dreamland story.

If you understand yin-yang and the five elements, you can ultimately understand humans.
Between heaven and earth, humans stand.

The great natural science of the East, the theory of yin-yang and the five elements
Can Western philosophy and science answer all questions and solve all problems? As we enter the 21st century, interest in Eastern studies is growing, fueled by a growing belief that they can provide answers to questions that Western philosophy and science have failed to address.
The cultural heritage of the East is as vast and deep as the ocean, and it cannot be denied that it was formed from the roots of the 'Yin-Yang and Five Elements' established by the Hetu and Luoshu.
However, many people do not know the true meaning of yin-yang and the five elements, and thus fail to understand the spirit and cultural heritage of the East.
If you correctly understand the five elements of yin and yang, which constitute all things in the world, you will obtain the compass necessary to navigate the seas of the East, shrouded in murky fog.
This book is a short report from the authors, who have long been lost and wandering in the world of the East, to the many who are following the same path, and is also an introduction to Oriental studies for the general reader.
It will be of great help to those who are studying Oriental medicine for the first time or wish to study it again, and to students who plan to study Oriental medicine at university.
