Western Roman
infantry unit

(ca. AD 430), the earliest known classical yin yang emblem.

Shiava
is
Nataraja
, the Lord of Dance, who performs his cosmic dance to destroy a weary world and help
Brahma
create a new one again, hence self-organization. See also
Fritjof Capra
(1975).

Taiji
(
Taegeuk
in Korean) in the
flag of South Korea
.

When awarded the
Order of the Elephant
by the Danish government,
Niehls Bohr
designed his own coat of arms which featured the
taijitu
(symbol of yin and yang) and the Latin motto
contraria sunt complementa
: Opposites are complementary.

Möbius band
The
Möbius band
may be worth a metaphor for either
Wuji
or
Taiji
in opposition that includes yin and yang, hence, a unity of
binary opposition
anyway.
To turn a rectangle into a
Möbius strip
, join the edges labelled A so that the directions of the arrows match.

CMAC
CMAC
invented by
James Albus
in 1975. The monist input signal
S
(like
Taiji
or
Wuji
) includes in fact the input command from higher centers and the sensory feedback from all joints so that the former is affected by the latter.
