my apartment, a man by the name of Faramarz runs his business. Faramarz is such
a nice, friendly guy – one of the nicest guys you could ever hope to meet.
Faramarz has been in Japan for over 21 years. He is one of the few foreigners I
have met who has been here longer than I.
and his business sells exquisite, handmade Persian Carpets. These are some of
the largest and most beautiful carpets I've ever seen. They are the kind of
things you would see on the floor of a palace or the office of the CEO of some
huge Japanese company. I imagine that carpets like these grace the floors of
places like Buckingham Palace or the Taj Mahal. Faramarz's handmade carpets are
as beautiful and detailed as any you will ever see.
Ramin and Aribizu. These guys impress me so much. They are so friendly and
intelligent. They can each speak more than three languages and their English is
superb. It's amazing that they come from what many of us in the west would
consider a "backward third-world country."
Every
person I have ever met from their country was extremely intelligent and
proficient in several languages. One of my best friends in college was from the
same place, and he could speak English, French, Russian, and Farsi. Farsi, as
some of you may know, is the native language of people from Persia – or what we
now call Iran.
to sit and chat in his office for a few minutes. It was fun. Faramarz and his
two employees had a wager on a sale that they were working on. The sale didn't

from Bulgaria, Romania, China, Thailand, Korea, Australia, England, Scotland,
New Zealand, France, Afghanistan, and Kenya. And they all said basically the
same thing. People everywhere are beginning to despise the United States.
The
talk then went into the Chinese concept of "Ying and Yang." Faramarz explained
to me that what is going on in the Middle East all fits in perfectly with the
concept of Ying and Yang. In Japan, this concept is described as, "Dark versus
Light."
Faramarz explain his take on this concept to me. I would expect to hear
something like this from someone from China or Korea, but someone from Iran?
the Middle East has always been the road to the Far East, it shouldn't be too
surprising to hear them speaking a philosophy that mirrors
Eastern
Asian thought.

has the side of good and light. We and everything else that is not dark. Ying
is, of course, the complete opposite. Ying is the "dark" part of the spirit.
Evil and darkness; defeat is on his side of the balance.
is everything. If something falls, something else must come back. That means if
one manages to become the most powerful, the entire universe will be out of
balance. So if Yang won, everything in the world would be happy – but not for
long, for the balance would be upset. And for as long as Yang is in power, the
reverse effect must come into play, and Ying will dominate after that for an
equal or longer period of time – until the cycle reverses itself again.
Of
course many Westerners might just chuckle at this silly "Eastern" notion. But
last night it dawned on me: I realized that this concept of "Ying and Yang" is
exactly the same as Sir Isaac Newton's Third Law of Motion, called "Principia
Mathematica Philosophiae Naturalis," published in 1686. Isaac Newton
stated:
equal and opposite reaction."
undisputable law says every force has an equal and opposite force. For every
action, there is a reaction. For every behavior, there is a consequence. Like
the rock thrown into the pond, the ripples radiate out, eventually hitting the
shore, and then again returning to its center. For every act, a consequence.
interpretation of how Ying and Yang and Newton's Third Law of Motion are,
ultimately, the exact same thing. But I think anyone could see where there is a
correlation.
person in the entire Western world argue with Newton's Third Law of Motion? I
don't think so. Agreed?
Yang or Newton's Law, it is an undeniable fact that every action has an equal
reaction.
folks in America a little more about Persia (Iran):
Persia is one of the oldest civilizations in the world? And that Persia was
once one of the largest empires the world had ever seen?
Persia has lost battles, it has never been conquered even once in over 3,000
years?
Iran
has more than three times the population of Iraq, and 63% of that population is
under 31 years old? Did you also know that, geographically speaking, Iran is
four times larger than Iraq?
twelve times the size of Iraq's, as of 2003?
one is sure of the total casualties during the
Iran-Iraq war of 1979 to 1988, estimates range from 800,000 to 1 million
dead, at least 2 million wounded, and more than 80,000 taken prisoner? That
there were approximately 2.5 million who became refugees and whose cities were
destroyed? That the financial cost is estimated at a minimum of $200 billion?
And even though, according to some estimates, Iran lost about one million
soldiers, it was still not defeated?
Bush administration and the neocons are setting America up for a war with Iran.
Right?
president, go ahead, America, attack Iran. But, as sure as the sun will rise
tomorrow, you will be forced to pay the piper. And it will, most certainly, be a
catastrophically heavy price.
with me about this observation. Argue instead with Ying and Yang – or, better
yet, argue with Isaac Newton's Third Law of Motion:
and opposite reaction."
