The keris (in my opinion) symbolises the interaction of two opposite forces. Balance, Order, unity. Man and a number of other things.

I have not already made up my decision about the symbolism, I am open to ideas and would love to hear others ideas on the matter.
Have you read the two articles linked to in my post yet ?
Did you come into contact with the keris through silat ?
