Definition
  1. Noun (Philosophical Term):
    • The Two Fundamental Forces / The Dual Principles: In traditional Chinese philosophy, "lưỡng nghi" refers to the two primary, opposing, and complementary forces that emerged from the primordial unity (Thái Cực). These are most commonly understood as Heaven (Yang, active, light) and Earth (Yin, receptive, dark), which form the basis of all existence and creation.
Usage Examples
  • Noun:
    • Thái Cực sinh lưỡng nghi. (The Supreme Ultimate gives birth to the Two Fundamental Forces.)

    • Âm dương là biểu hiện của lưỡng nghi. (Yin and Yang are manifestations of the Two Fundamental Forces.)
Advanced Usage
  • The concept is foundational in the (Kinh Dịch / I Ching), where the Two Fundamental Forces generate the Four Symbols (Tứ Tượng) and then the Eight Trigrams (Bát Quái).
  • While "Heaven and Earth" is the most concrete interpretation, "lưỡng nghi" can more abstractly represent any fundamental duality: light/dark, active/passive, creative/receptive.

  • Âm Dương (n): Yin and Yang; the detailed principle of dualism that flows from and elaborates upon the Two Fundamental Forces.
