Description
The ‘I CHING’ or the ‘Book of Changes’ is one of the oldest Chinese classic texts and contains a divination system that was used in ancient China. As a manual of divination, it interpreted events through readings based on symbols expressed in the trigrams and hexagrams. The ‘I CHING’ successfully offered guidance to emperors, generals and civilians. Although thousands of years have passed, the popularity of using the ‘I CHING’ as an oracle remains.
This e-book is not a direct translation of the ‘I CHING’. It provides a foundation for advanced studies and gives the overview of practical application in the modern world.
