Indian Yoni-Linga and Chinese Yin-Yang.John Zijiang Ding -2009 -Journal of Philosophy: A Cross-Disciplinary Inquiry 4 (8):20-26.detailsIndian philosophy of Yoni-Linga may be examined as a parallel to the Chinese philosophy of “Yin-Yang.” This essay will compare the similarities and distinctions between the two kinds of dichotomies through a theoretical formulation: certain conceptual, analytical and cross-cultural perspectives.
