Why did Lu Ban, who was proficient in carpentry, also want to learn the "Book of Changes"?

We all know that Lu Ban was a very influential person in ancient China. He could be said to be an inventor and a prosperous craftsman at that time. The saws used by carpenters today were invented by Lu Ban. It is said that he gained experience from a plant.

So why did Luban, who was so proficient in civil engineering, still study the I Ching? Most of the tools used by craftsmen today were invented by Lu Ban, who is also known as the ancestor of craftsmen. These are the experiences he gained in life practice and summed up in practice.

I think this is related to his personal experience and extensive knowledge. There are many things he needs in the Book of Changes, such as philosophy of life and practical skills. Inventions come from life and end up in life. The Book of Changes also plays a certain role in civil engineering design. No one will be idle. You are bored to study some irrelevant things, unless of course you are a wealthy family with good living conditions.

The Book of Changes contains a very rich philosophy of life and practical skills. Luban’s proficiency in civil engineering also needs to be supported by extensive knowledge and experience. Without rich experience and profound knowledge, it is impossible to say that a skill is useless. For those who are proficient, they need more knowledge to enrich and support his theory. The source of his theory must also be extensive and rich knowledge and experience.

Many of the knowledge mentioned in the Book of Changes have a very important role in Luban's civil engineering, and there are also many principles of life. It will be beneficial to him to learn more and read more books. That's not a bad thing to say. When it comes to living and learning, this should be a traditional virtue that has been passed down from ancient times. I imagine that an outstanding person like Lu Ban should have read a lot of poems and books.

As a person who loves learning, it is not surprising that Lu Ban read more books at that time, because rich knowledge is also a major guarantee in life for him, a rich theoretical foundation, It is also a rare wealth.
