靈龜洛書
相傳在大禹時代，洛陽西部洛寧縣的洛河中浮出神龜，背負《洛書》獻給大禹。他按照書中的啟示治水成功，之後劃分天下為九州，又以此制定九州大法，治理社會。《洛書》流傳下來被收入《尚書》中，取名《洪範》,在中國古代文明中佔有重要位置。
According to the legend, in the era of Dayu, a turtle is found floating from the River Liu in the west side of Liu Yang. It carries a book called “The Book of Luo” for Dayu. He followed the instruction and controlled the flood, then divided the world into nine continents with laws. “The Book of Luo” has an important position in Chinese ancient civilization.
虛實一色
在文明的早期，人們開始探討世界各種事物的組成以及分類，水在其中佔據了重要的位置，被認為是生命之源。在《道德經》當中，水被比喻為最高的道德標準：「上善若水。水善利萬物而不爭，處眾人之所惡，故幾於道。」意思是說，水滋潤大地萬物，卻不爭奪顯赫的位置，去充滿低窪之地，所以就接近於道了。
From early civilization, the element of water has profound place in the composition of the world. According to Daoism, the water is a metaphor as the highest ethical standards, as it benefits all things without contention, flowing to the lower space, so it is close to Dao.
