"All life depends upon the opportunistic interplay between elemental forces, the mysterious dualities of the numinous universe. Ying and yang forces of the natural world (lightness and darkness, fire and water, expansion and contraction) create tangible dualities that are complementary, interconnected, and independent.

Without the rich soil surrounded by a canopy of an illimitable sky how could we feed ourselves, how could we breathe?"
