Natural forces

Natural forces that  balance the whole universe also exists inside the living beings.
They are mentioned in the traditional systems of the of all ancient cultures.
The forces that balance the world are are of two types which are opposite in directions and nature.
In the indian system this is very well illustrated, these forces exists in many forms but all does the same work i.e. maintining equilibrium in nature and body..
they are mentioned as life forces like -
  • agni <-------->soma
  • surya<------->chandra
  • prana <------>apana
  • sheet<-------->ushna
  • aartava<------>shukra
  • pitta<--------->kapha
  • rajah<-------->tamah etc.
Ancient Chinese system also informs about the life energy "Qi" that is flowing all over.
The two opposite forces 'yin' and 'yang'act in equilibrium normally.
These tendencies can create and destroy everything in this universe.
  • Yang is inward movement that creates contraction.
  • Yin is outward movement that creates expansion.
Other opposite forces that work in nature are-
  • Electromagnetic forces from south and north poles of earth, body, objects.
  • male and female forces etc.
These life forces whatever they are called does only the same work i.e. balancing.
Our human body is also a part of nature, so all these are present here too.
When they are in equilibrium we are happy and healthy, but as the balance gets disturbed unhappiness and illness comes through.
So one must realize the presence of these forces, how they work and try not to disturb the equilibrium between them..............this is most important to lead a healthy and happy life!
