Infinite movement is Tai Chi, divided into yin and yang, and circulation is two instruments. Yin and Yang are divided into two images-Shaoyang, Sun, Shaoyin and Taiyin, which are combined into four images, and Yin and Yang intersect to form eight diagrams. Two hexagrams complement each other and sixty-four hexagrams come out.

In the philosophical sense, infinity leads to gossip and gossip leads to sixty-four hexagrams, which tells the basic truth of the development of things and the transformation of contradictions, and is a simple dialectics. Jin Mu's five elements, fire, water and soil, reveal the macroscopic form of everything in the world, which is simple materialism. As for the transformation of the four images and eight diagrams into directions, seasons, stars, fire and water, heaven and earth, wind and thunder, mountains and rivers, it was just that the ancients grafted abstract dialectics into concrete materialism.

As for the one, one, two, three and three things of Tao, just like the infinite gossip, it is the evolution law of things from simple to complex; One, two and three here are abstract concepts, only the accumulation of quantity, and then the qualitative change through quantitative change, without reference.
