The Chinese legend of Fu Xi and Nü Wa (c. 2,600 BC) is, so far, the most lawful account I know of how the universe is continuously being created by multiply-connected contrary circular action.
The illustration, here, represents two human beings united together in a DNA type of double helix which is generating the constellations of the stars with a compass and a square which they hold, respectively, in their right and left hands. What the Chinese have understood, at a very early stage of civilization, is that the human mind naturally moves in the direction of understanding how the creative process works through a self-governing torque action that solves contradictions and paradoxes.
