If YingYang is the Operating System of the Chinese mind, today we look at another of the 5 Software Programs that run on that Operating System - ZhongYong.
The Chinese mind is taught during its formative years that to serve society the best, one must live life in the middle, sitting properly in the position that you hold in life at the time. No individualism here. Whereas Westerners are taught to always strive to be number 1.
Listen to some practical examples of the application of ZhongYong and what it means for working with the Chinese Mind.
