[@williamrutherford9997]

Thank you so much for the video. So many other video producers take only a shallow approach to these crucial topics. I am eager for a deeper understanding.

Earth, air, water, fire and ether.

[@AsianWisdoms]

Ether or Aerther is an arguing element, it was later added in 18 century, not an ancient elements. The explain of Ether varied and not consistent. It is electromagnetic waves (e.g., light and X-rays); sound waves ; some says it is gravity.... so it is hard to put it in the same scale on water, earth, air and fire.

Thank you!

[@bmade78]

Thank you ❤ that was the first video I watched about how all that is and I think that will be the only one I'll watch on how all that is cause not only did you explain the elements but how we a parents or vise versa are raised and raising our generations. Now I have a question for you, if we can consider the long time damage on our Mother Earth that we have done and how the elements work for and against each other couldn't we do that with the hydrologic cycle in a grand mass sense like making it work the proper way in helping the natural flow get back to the natural flow by how all elements have a proper way of cycle or am I far off or am I missing something here because that's almost sounds too easy I mean what would that consist of or how would that look on the hydrologic cycle or to say water cycle? Again thank you for such a informative and well understood explanation I'm very impressed and new to all of it but want to help by equipping myself with the knowledge to do something about it. Sending you much love respect and gratitude God bless us all.

[@AsianWisdoms]

I want to thank for your kind words and your question. In my opinion Mother nature have great system that could balance and re-balance itself if we human do not touch anything. Like water cycle, nature made it a perfect cycle, but nowadays there are things that human do corrupting that cycle, that also lead to natural disasters (more and more event appear today). Human are mostly driven by economy, and they want it more days by days, interfering nature to gain money. So what are the solutions? 1. Humankind needs to find a new type of energy that could satisfy their needs without touching the nature (solar, wind, energy is not a sustainable solution, just search how much metal it take to make a solar panel or wind turbin and how much energy and space to put it in the graveyard) 2. If not, people must live with least touch to the nature by upgrading current technology. (Imagine a machine that cost 5 times less material to make and 5 times less energy to use)...

[@bmade78]

Thank you for replying that means a lot to me and is very much appreciated ❤ May I ask you another question, if we the people have the answers for great change for all mankind and everything else here then why aren't we doing that? Is it too late to save her? Also this is off topic but I'd like to ask you about the system that runs the world, is AI running the system or the elites and really I know it doesn't really matter cause obviously we're all just going to sit back and watch the shit show go down Like this. No disrespect on toes or fools who care more for money than humanity, animals, plants, and Mother Earth but isn't there a way to stop every government in the world of wtf their doing by being a voice for Mother Earth, plants, and animals, and just taking the first step in avocation on the behalf of species without a voice and wouldn't that put the advocate in a higher rank than any person in any seat or power cause of the importance of all over species here being it so we us the human only make up 2% of all species on Mother Earth because I read somewhere that everyday human consumption extinct 70+ species daily and if the human only makes up 2% of all species that classifies the human rights lower in rank considering the percentage and also I understand that humans outweigh in quantity being that there are over eight billion people here. I know that all plants,animals, and Mother Earth are suffering because of us humans and our greed for money but not all of us run our lives by money that

[@bmade78]

If I proclaimed Mother Earth and now speak on her behalf and the behalf of all animals, and plants without a convicting voice to speak for themselves about the injustice of human consumption today, who can stop me?

[@luypagna9999]

Can you explain deeper 4 element vs 5 element?

[@AsianWisdoms]

Originally, in the West, they just had 4 ancient elements: water, fire, earth, air. Ether (Aether) is a new concept that was added by modern Westerner in 18,19th century. The ether was assumed to be weightless, transparent, frictionless, undetectable chemically or physically, and literally permeating all matter and space. In physics, some early scientists found "gravity is ether". Later scientist found ether is electromagnetic waves (e.g., light and X-rays), and sound waves. Ether also called "Spirit" of human. When searching on Internet, you can find picture drawing Aether as the fifth element beside 4 ancients elements. but you can not find a proper explaination or easy way to understand how it can transform to another elements. But with "Earth element" in my video, you can understand how it contacts with other element in a minute. That is why I say "we can not put ether on the same scale with other elements Also, in my opinion, if I count "ether as an element", so I have to add the sixth element to Chinese five elements, that would break all original Chinese concepts. The transformation of energy on the four cycles are invisible and always changing. For me, ether is rather understood as a "stage" than an "element". It is a stage that fire, air, water, earth get harmony with each other. Like "the peace in your mind". Other than that, you can not touch ether , or control it as will as the way you could do to earth element.

[@josephwaters2792]

There was a mistake at At 3:32 WOOD should be "Windy" and EARTH should be "Humid/Damp". Otherwise, it is a very nice video. With that in mind, You could think of the Western "Air" element as being split into the 2 Chinese elements of Wood (windy/changeable) and Metal (dry). In older Chinese literature, the 4 elements of Wood, Fire, Metal and Water circled around outside the 5th element of Earth which was in the center. Each of the different models are useful as different perspectives, especially in Chinese/Western Herbalism.

I like it, but isn’t it phases ? Not elements?

[@AsianWisdoms]

The robot voice is very bad, it really damages the quality of your video. The natural human voice communicates meaning and understanding in a way a robot never could.

[@tokyokid6513]

they're probably using a translator, the video is great for what it is

[@mcdart2606]

The content is wonderful, however the AI voice is so unnatural and unpleasant to listen to. It goes against everything wu xing has to teach us 😕

[@AsianWisdoms]

I focus heavily on my content, that is true. It takes a lot of time reading books and documents to create quality content like this. With one-man-army for all process, it takes me 2-3 weeks to create a video, which is kinda slow. But AI helps me 2 things: 1. Save me time for other importants thing like reading documents, improving content, keep the publishing duration shorter. 2.though my content is conplicated, i think AI will do better than my voice in some long and hard words, without needing looking at the subtitle (most of my audience is American). Thank you for your honest comment. I just don't agree your last sentence. There is no rule in Wu Xing theory says that "you must not use AI voice in your youtube video." :D or "everything must be natural!". I think that you should watch my video again, the true lesson must be "Wu Xing teachs us to understand the nature of things, and to use it as our own wills, to own advantages".
