ABSTRACT

As a symbol of Chinese Yin-Yang theory, the implication of Tai Chi diagram has been widely acknowledged in Natural Sciences and Philosophy in both east and west. Taking three well-known principles in physics for example, “the principle of complementarity”, “dissipative structure theory” and “Wheeler’s principle of austerity”, this paper interprets the symbolic rep-resentation of Tai Chi diagram and explores the compatibility between these three modern physical principles and Taoist philosophy. Through the combination of modern physics in the horizon of Tai Chi wisdom, this paper hopes to arouse the continuous attention and reflection of this issue in academic circles.
