Zhouyi is both familiar and unfamiliar. What wisdom is hidden in this mysterious gobbledygook

Confucianism has influenced our country for more than two thousand years. Although China has some thoughts of Taoism and Legalism, Confucianism has undoubtedly been dominant. As a Confucian classic, the Four Books and Five Classics are familiar to everyone, and the Book of Changes is not only one of the six classics, but also the first of the Confucian classics at that time, and its important position can be seen. Classic refers to the content of the original "classic", but it is the interpretation and translation of the classic, and the "Yi" in the Five Classics refers to the Book of Changes and the Book of Changes.

In the social background at that time, social productivity was relatively low, and people had many unexplained phenomena. The ancestors all thought that they were manipulated, and the thoughts at that time were common objective idealism. And people also want to understand the laws of nature through dialogue with "God", so as to achieve the purpose of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages. There are divination and Oracle Bone Inscriptions, and The Book of Changes came into being.

The word Zhouyi has many specific meanings, and its interpretation is also very diverse. But in general, it is some changes in the universe, which are expressed by divination and divination. There are fixed and traceable laws, both changing and unchanging, which express the dialectical view of relative motion and absolute stillness.

The Book of Changes is all-encompassing. In addition to these divinatory symbols and divinatory words, it also has a strong Huang Lao thought, which was later divided, some of which came from Taoist thought and had a direct impact on Taoist thought. The other part was absorbed by Confucianism. It can be said that Zhouyi was used in people's life and prediction from the beginning, and it is an important code of conduct and spiritual sustenance. Later, with its own evolution and profound philosophical thoughts, it gradually became the administrative guide for the country to run the country and ensure the security, and it was also an important ideological source for Confucianism to explain and spread Confucianism.
