There are 4 elements to this 3 links chain or spectrum (3 internal harmonies) which are Xin, Yi, Qi, and Li. This IMHO is related to the Ch'an lesson of the moving flag. Is the flag that moves, or is it the wind moves. The answer is most likely that it's the mind that moves. BTW, the entire 6 harmonies spectrum has a total of 10 elements (4 energy related and 6 matter related). Just a thought
