Download or read book The I Ching Book of Changes written by Geoffrey Redmond and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-07-13 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The I Ching has influenced thinkers and artists throughout the history of Chinese philosophy. This new, accessible translation of the entire early text brings to life the hidden meanings and importance of China's oldest classical texts. Complemented throughout by insightful commentaries, the I Ching: A Critical Translation of the Ancient Text simplifies the unique system of hexagrams lying at the centre of the text and introduces the cultural significance of key themes including yin and yang, gender and ethics. As well as depicting all possible ethical situations, this new translation shows how the hexagram figures can represent social relationships and how the order of lines can be seen as a natural metaphor for higher or lower social rank. Introduced by Hon Tze-Ki, an esteemed scholar of the text, this up-to-date translation uncovers and explains both the philosophical and political interpretations of the text. For a better understanding of the philosophical and cosmological underpinning the history of Chinese philosophy, the I Ching is an invaluable starting point.
Download or read book I CHING The Book of Changes written by Anonymous and published by e-artnow. This book was released on 2022-01-04 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The I Ching, usually translated as Book of Changes, is an ancient Chinese divination text and among the oldest of the Chinese classics. Originally a divination manual in the Western Zhou period (1000–750 BC), over the course of the Warring States period and early imperial period (500–200 BC) it was transformed into a cosmological text with a series of philosophical commentaries known as the "Ten Wings". The I Ching is used in a type of divination called cleromancy, which uses apparently random numbers. Six numbers between 6 and 9 are turned into a hexagram, which can then be looked up in the text, in which hexagrams are arranged in an order known as the King Wen sequence. The interpretation of the readings found in the I Ching is a matter which has been endlessly discussed and debated over in the centuries following its compilation, and many commentators have used the book symbolically, often to provide guidance for moral decision making as informed by Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism.
Download or read book The Yi River Commentary on the Book of Changes written by Cheng Yi and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2019-01-01 with total page 575 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A translation of a key commentary on perhaps the most broadly influential text of classical China This book is a translation of a key commentary on the Book of Changes, or Yijing (I Ching), perhaps the most broadly influential text of classical China. The Yijing first appeared as a divination text in Zhou-dynasty China (ca. 1045-256 bce) and later became a work of cosmology, philosophy, and political theory as commentators supplied it with new meanings. While many English translations of the Yijing itself exist, none are paired with a historical commentary as thorough and methodical as that written by the Confucian scholar Cheng Yi, who turned the original text into a coherent work of political theory.

Download or read book Understanding the I Ching written by Hellmut Wilhelm and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The West's foremost translator of the I Ching, Richard Wilhelm thought deeply about how contemporary readers could benefit from this ancient work and its perennially valid insights into change and chance. For him and for his son, Hellmut Wilhelm, the Book of Changes represented not just a mysterious book of oracles or a notable source of the Taoist and Confucian philosophies. In their hands, it emerges, as it did for C. G. Jung, as a vital key to humanity's age-old collective unconscious. Here the observations of the Wilhelms are combined in a volume that will reward specialists and aficionados with its treatment of historical context--and that will serve also as an introduction to the I Ching and the meaning of its famous hexagrams.
Download or read book Yijing Shamanic Oracle of China written by Richard Bertschinger and published by Singing Dragon. This book was released on 2011-11-15 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the Chinese, the destiny of each individual and the cosmos have always been inextricably linked, and for two thousand years the Yijing, or the Book of Change, has exercised the best minds in the Orient. Richard Bertschinger, author of The Secret of Everlasting Life (the first translation of The Can Tong Qi), has worked from the classical commentaries to make a fresh and up-to-date translation for the modern world. Marriage, business ventures, journeys, military ventures, disputes, world affairs, personal problems, health or money issues, all are grist for the mill of the Book of Change. Through pondering the lines, studying their poetry, and devoting ourselves to its meaning, the heart of the ancients is clear. We pick up perhaps in a way we never could have conceived of, how to guide and direct our lives. With an introduction that explains the underlying structure and philosophy of the Book of Change, as well as its history, and a detailed explanation of how to throw the yarrow sticks, or the coins, the novice reader is given everything they need to take their first steps in consulting the ancient oracle, and those already familiar with established translations will find this fresh translation from the original texts clear and illuminating.
Download or read book When I Ching Has No Text written by Alfred Kee and published by AK Guru Prediction Consultancy. This book was released on 2021-04-07 with total page 422 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you are looking for an oracle system that can provide direct, precise, detailed, accurate, and straight to the point, no-nonsense answers. This book will serve you well! We will be discussing different examples (with real-life case studies) of questions that can be answered by WWG, such as employment and career, wealth (from personal to business and investment), health ( From general health to a professional application that not limited to Chinese and Modern Medicine), relationships (in any kind of relationships), property and feng shui, luck (including those that is intangible), and so much more. Wen Wang Gua is another I Ching practice that has a history of more than a thousand years. The accuracy of this system is extremely high. The designed framework of WWG adopts only the yin and yang to read the hexagrams and this makes deciphering so much easier. (i.e, if it wasn't yin, then it must be yang) Hence, there is no need for text during the entire deciphering process. Please be rest assured you will not need to pick up another translation of the I Ching again. This book simply does not copy just from the ancients. In fact, it has not much to do with the ancient texts. Despite saying this, this book is still using the basic and original designed structure, that was built thousands of years ago. It reveals many secret techniques and explains why some theories are not working. For the first time ever, I am revealing all those privately passed down techniques about this little known system of I Ching. I will lead the reader step by step through this fantastic and rewarding oracle from ancient China. To perform divination, it is absolutely not just about throwing coins and using one's intuition. It is a fully analytical system. That is why everyone can learn to read in the future. This book will guide you step by step with lessons (with proper listing and organising) from A to Z. I can assure you that this book is the one that you have been searching for a long time.

This 10th anniversary edition offers a thorough introduction to the history of the I Ching, how to use it, and several new divination methods; in-depth and easy-to-reference translations of each hexagram name, description, and pictogram; and discussions of the interrelations between the hexagrams and the spiritual meaning of their sequence.

Download or read book Total I Ching written by Stephen Karcher and published by Piatkus. This book was released on 2009-05-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The I Ching (pronounced ee-ching) is the oldest and most respected oracle or divinatory system in the world. There are currently two translations available which offer somewhat conflicting interpretations - the popular Confucian version and an earlier Taoist version called Zhouyi. Reconstructed by twentieth-century scholars and archaeologists, Zhouyi presents the highly imaginative world of myth and ritual that is the hidden base of thousands of years of Eastern thought. Now, for the first time ever, Stephen Karcher fuses these two traditions using modern scholarship and archaeological and linguistic research, along with a wide background in Eastern philosophy and comparative religion, and presents them to the modern Western reader in a comprehensive and accessible new form. TOTAL I CHING is a complete oracle with instruction for immediate use in all life situations, but is also the first translation to detail the mythology of the divinatory system, offering a revolutionary new approach to the world's oldest wisdom tradition.
