Main idea

The philosophical thinking of ancient scholars in China was inspired by the study of the Book of Changes, and their philosophical thinking ability was mostly trained and improved through the analysis and interpretation of the Book of Changes and the contention of different viewpoints.

Laozi integrated the ideological essence of Yijing into Tao Te Ching and founded a philosophical system with dialectical thinking as the core. On the basis of the combination of yin and yang to form hexagrams, he constructed a schema of the origin of all things, revealing the unity of opposites of various forces contained in things.
