In recent years, I have been improving my ability by writing substitute learning.
The first level is that most of the excerpts from the content of the book and express some of their own opinions on some of the contents, which can be understood as shallow reading. The second level is to copy a small amount of the content of the book, and most of it uses one's own thinking, including some hidden questions in the book, logical structure, etc., which can be understood as in-depth reading.
The shallow way of writing is shallow, but it can also remember some frequent fragments after going through the brain, and then guide yourself to do more in-depth thinking in work and life at a certain point in time.
Next, I plan to use this shallow learning method to share some of the "I Ching".
In this article, let's talk about what is the relationship between divination and the I Ching, which we often see?
There are many books on the market that use the Book of Changes for divination, and it should be said that it is an industry that has existed since ancient times.
If you compare with the current popular divination constellations, the divination of the "I Ching" occupies the constellations in the 384 lines of the "I Ching", and if the divination and the "I Ching" are related, you can find out the influence and connection between them. If you follow the idea of okay, that is, you can't integrate them through the surface, you can pull the relationship behind it through the hidden line of the Tao. Nowadays, many people associate divination with the two disciplines of the Book of Changes, often only by attaching them. Attachment is to grasp a term or knowledge point and put your own ideas into it.
The Book of Changes has many incidents in history, such as King Wen's Book of Changes, which originally belonged to the category of philosophy, but was regarded as a divination technique. However, divination is not bad, and its use is to give people convenience, just like the convenience method that Buddhism says, so that people can easily enter. However, when it came to the study of symbols and numbers in the Han Dynasty, it was incidental to turn Zhanyi into fortune-telling, which only had disadvantages and no benefits. This is a side meeting.
In the flow of the Book of Changes in Chinese history, there are two paths, one is the path of Confucius and Lao Tzu, and the other is divination and elephant numbering, which often become the path of attaching to the meeting.
Divination is related to the "Book of Changes", that is, the divination will talk about caution, "I Ching" mentions that many things should be done cautiously, divination has gone half of it to be cautious, and the other half is the philosophical principle of the "Book of Changes" for 3,000 years, telling us how to be cautious and careful, so that a combination is a pass.
In the sixty-four hexagrams of the Book of Changes, many of them are talking about prudence; Especially the first line, most of the first lines of the hexagram are talking. For example, take the first ten hexagrams of the Book of Changes. The first hexagram is "don't use the hidden dragon", which is to be cautious and not to use it indiscriminately. The second hexagram Kun hexagram, the first hexagram "walking on frost, ice to", trembling, like facing a great enemy, be cautious. The third hexagram, the first "Li Jianhou", must lay a good foundation, that is, be cautious and careful. The hexagram talks about education, and the first hexagram tells us how to get rid of desires, to be grounded, and not to move. The first hexagram tells us to be patient and persistent. Then there are the lawsuits, the first of which asks us to pay attention to other people's gossip.
Next is the Guru Hexagram, the first line tells us that everything should be done according to the law, that is, to be cautious. Then the hexagram, Chu Yao also told us that to be close to the people of the Tao is to be cautious. Next is the small animal hexagram, the first one should be cautious and cautious, and embark on the road of Taoism. The tenth hexagram tells us to do what we should do, which is prudence. It can be seen that each of the first ten hexagrams has its own caution.
It can be seen from this that half of the divination should be cautious, how the other half should be cautious, and each hexagram and each line will find an opportunity to talk specifically.
