Post 15 Role of opposites in the Daodejing.

The role of opposites in Daodejing is that opposite attracts one another. The chapters help us understand that even though something is opposite of each other they balance out. You cannot exist without the other, an example of this is day and night. You need the light to see in the dark and you need the dark to see the moon and the stars. "Thus something and nothing produce each other". " The difficult and the easy complement each other." Each aspect compliments one another for the bad or the good.

  1. So do you need to fail in order to pass a course? Do opposites always work together? or do they sometimes cancel each other out?
