Who the pale man might be...
Yin Yang are the opposites that allow each other to exist. Together they Are. There is no ultimate separation between what is living and what is not. Ultimately everything just Is.
So, who/what was and is before the Yin and Yang, before the split?
The lonely union, with no problems.
The pale man is 'God' - Everyhing that there was and is. Ultimately God is alone. God is not someone, or something. "God Is" or just Isness, or just Beingness fits too. Each person experiences itself as a separate entity because of the mind which separates things. You need it to function and do things, you need contrast. Would you seek good without bad? If you were pefectly fine where you are now, would you go around to do stuff?
(Supposedly, in enlightenment, which is "Non-dual awareness" you experience the state being where there is no "me" and the "out there", there is only Beingness.)
PS: I don't know why people say that the Lamb n' the Wolf are death. The wolf is death. The lamb is life. The real question is who is the pale man. This might help you understand my guess.
