MENG (䷃)
The name and logo of MENG Elementair werk feature the fourth hexagram in the Book of Changes — the Yijing.
“This is the hexagram of inexperience, upbringing and learning…
Essence of the hexagram is that the ignorant, represented in these texts, must be aware of his ignorance.”
– Han Boering (“I Ching for the 21st century”)
Each hexagram is formed by six lines, yin or yang, together mapping the dynamics of change: a guide for navigating the patterns of reality.
At the heart of this understanding lies the trinity of Heaven, Human and Earth. That same trinity exists within us:
- Heaven – the head: thought, vision
- Human – the heart: feeling, connection
- Earth – the belly: nourishment, vitality, intention
When these three work in harmony, clarity, direction and natural strength arise. The ancient symbol 王 (wang) represents the archetypal sovereign: the one who maintains harmony between Heaven, Human and Earth.
This figure points to what is possible within each of us:
to bring thinking, feeling and action into coherence with the greater whole.
Elementair werk supports this path: a process of inner alignment that enables you to lead from within,
clear, grounded and in attunement with life itself.
The Chinese character Wang (王) means king or sovereign.
The three horizontal lines represent Heaven, Man and Earth. The vertical line symbolizes the one who unites them: the leader living in harmony with the whole.
A deeper perspective
A core principle of the Yijing is the trinity of Heaven, Man and Earth. That trinity exists within each of us:
- Heaven – the head: thought, vision
- Human – the heart: feeling, connection
- Earth – the belly: nourishment, vitality, intention
When these three work in harmony, clarity, direction and natural strength arise. The ancient symbol 王 (wang) represents the archetypal sovereign: the one who maintains harmony between Heaven, Human and Earth.
Elementair werk supports this process of development: a path towards inner alignment, enabling you to lead in deeper connection with yourself, others and the world around you.
Clear your mind, calm your heart and strengthen your body.
That way, you’ll function more efficiently.
