We start with nothing, at zero, empty. This is the greatest power, for here we are ready for anything, ready to receive anything. From the outset it is important to remember that the pairs in Eastern thought, yin and yang, are not polar opposites in eternal conflict as the Judeo-Christian God and Satan, but rather as simply complementary principles, like convex and concave, inhale and exhale, sleep and waking, man and woman. Kun is woman, that which recieves and makes life with what was recieved. Kun is earth, solid, grounded. Kun is supportive, as the Earth supports all things. But Kun is not "female" in the limited Western sense of gender roles; a man cannot be healthy if he cannot receive air through his nose or food through his mouth or light through his eyes. All living things manifest and are manifested in Kun. Be receptive to the power of receptivity. Soon it will change.
