The origin of the book of changes
In ancient times, Zhouyi's "calendar is three ancient times and people are three saints", Fuxi painted heaven and earth, which was the first of the eight diagrams and the Book of Changes; In the Middle Ages, Zhou Wenwang was imprisoned and solved sixty-four hexagrams; In ancient times, Confucius and Wei compiled three unique works, describing the Book of Changes in words, which were called "Ten Wings", meaning to insert ten wings into the Book of Changes. At this point, we have completed the Book of Changes as seen in modern times, which is the origin of the Book of Changes.
In ancient times, there were no words, and Fu painted gossip, which created the Book of Changes, so the Book of Changes was originally a "wordless heavenly book", a set of symbols. So how did Fu draw gossip? Imagine that in ancient times, they had no tools, no words, and only naked bodies were in close contact with nature. In their long-term life practice, it will rain when such weather appears in the sky. When there is such weather, it will thunder, so they want to record it and leave it to future generations for tips. However, they have no words and can only use symbols. They went to different places and found that different places have different climates, different species and different dangers, and they also recorded them with symbols. After summing up and verifying, he finally put forward a complete natural system of heaven and earth, which he called innate gossip and left to future generations.
Innate gossip (Fuxi Bagua)
In the Middle Ages, Shang Zhouwang listened to Hou Hu's slanderers and put Zhou Wenwang in prison. Zhou Wenwang is a wise man with great wisdom who has accumulated virtue and benevolence. During this period of imprisonment, he was detained to play Zhouyi. On the basis of Fuxi gossip, he fused, summarized and deduced his own life experience and wisdom, which is the so-called acquired gossip popular map. He combined these eight symbols into 8864 symbols and wrote a sentence for each symbol. From to, it is fu.
Gossip the day after tomorrow (Wang Wen gossip)
Then Confucius' Yi Zhuan. Confucius once said: Give me a few more years and learn the Book of Changes at the age of 50, so I can stop making big mistakes. Confucius not only said this sentence, but also studied the Book of Changes many times, which led to the loss of bamboo slips many times. This is why the famous idiom "Bian Wei's Three Musts" refers to this matter. Confucius' efforts were not in vain. After his explanation, he inserted ten wings in the Book of Changes, called Ten Wings or Yi Zhuan, as the annotations of the various items in the Book of Changes, as an aid to let you know the Book of Changes. They are the upper and lower chapters of Yi Zhuan, which are used to explain the hexagrams. Biography of the Elephant explains the meaning of hexagrams. Interpretation of Little Elephant Biography; The first and second parts of Cohesion Biography are wonderful philosophical expositions. The Biography of Classical Chinese gives a special explanation to the two hexagrams of Gan Kun. Shuogua Zhuan explains the reason, naming and symbol of gossip of each hexagram. The preface to the biography of hexagrams explains the arrangement order of sixty-four hexagrams, and the biography of miscellaneous hexagrams says everything. Together, these ten contents are called Yi Zhuan.
This is the general origin of the Book of Changes, and what we are seeing now is the sum of these three parts. Collectively referred to as Zhouyi or Yijing.
The Book of Changes, as the ancient philosophy of China, has glorious essence and far-reaching significance! It is said that the Book of Changes began in Xia and Zhou Dynasties and the Book of Hutuluo, but I prefer to say that the Book of Changes may be the legacy of the last ice age civilization, or alien wisdom. . . Like the pyramids, like the mysterious Stonehenge. Look at the stars on the river map, in fact, it seems to be a sky map of the universe. It may appear on the turtle's back and the horse's body, just like finding fossils! Of course, the wisdom of Yin-Yang and Five Elements of China ancients is unique in the legendary swordsman. .
I ching can be used to predict. It is the calculation and deduction of people's formation theory by using natural laws. The dialectical theory of Yin and Yang and the restraint of the five elements are his core, and heavenly stems and earthly branches is the symbol, so that's why we can know the origin of a person's fate according to his birthdates.
Eight-character fortune-telling depends entirely on true knowledge, extraordinary knowledge, gossip prediction, four points on knowledge and six points on aura.
I study the Book of Changes, involving six hexagrams of divination, four pillars of numerology, geomantic omen, physiognomy and names of people. At the root of it, the basic theories of various disciplines still don't show gossip, and the five elements are yin and yang. Their similarities and the theory of harmony are very subtle!
Up to now, I have realized that the guiding significance of the Book of Changes is: 1. Be prepared for the unexpected when you are blessed, and be optimistic when you are frustrated. The so-called impermanence of the world, the exchange of yin and yang, is also true. Second, there is neither absolute good nor absolute bad in the world. The so-called fortune is relative Third, when dealing with the world, don't stick to your own opinions and listen to the audience. The so-called golden mean is also!
