In judging applications to be yin or yang, we are never doing so absolutely. Depending on what we are comparing, we can say about the same thing that it is either yin or yang. Dualistic Monism, a principle contained within as a theory of dynamic relativity. It is rather the continuously vacillating of yin and yang as the moment dictates and the application or technique is applied.
All techniques have both yin and yang context, traits and influences but one is not completely and utterly without the other. There are remnants of one or the other to some degree with one or the other dominating at any one given moment. The changes made in applications is based upon changes in the quality, quantity, or structure of said application or techniques of their respective yin and yang elements.
Considering these factors becomes important when learning and applying a technique or techniques or variations of said techniques depends greatly as to the stage or level of shu-ha-ri of the practitioner of said martial system(s).
Only through the study and understanding of the ancients and ancient classics that influenced the creation and inheritance of the systems down to the present can achieve this type of understanding. This understanding influences to a higher level the learning, applying and understanding of techniques, etc.
The entire ken-po goku-i is a window that allows a practitioner to achieve sight, sound and feel for the martial system practiced and it also is the only method to open the various gates, nyumonsha, leading toward mastery.
