NO: Transformation and Evolution

The character for “NO” is composed of a large circle, a horizontal line (TA), and small circles positioned at the points of 4 and 8 (YO and YA).

While this character resembles the previously explained “ME,” their meanings are significantly different. This is because “ME” includes a vertical line signifying the latent realm, whereas “NO” features a horizontal line, which represents the phenomenal world.

The core intention of “ME” expresses the transition of a “Tama” (spherical entity) that appears in the phenomenal world. This Tama, possessing a fourfold nature (YO), progresses towards its ultimate limit, reaching a state of saturation and stability (YA). Conversely, “NO” signifies that a phenomenon or state is “transforming into,” “changing to,” “evolving into,” or “developing into.”

When interpreting “NO” within a given context, it’s best understood as signifying transformation, change, evolution, or development in the phenomenal world.
