What does Fuxi mean by making gossip?

The texts of Yijing and Bagua should have two forms.

Fuxi started the gossip of the Book of Changes. Fuxi didn't use words when he created gossip. The words in the Book of Changes were all added by later generations. There are mainly three people. One is Wang Wen at the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, who made hexagrams for the gossip of the Book of Changes and even for each of the 64 hexagrams. Then, Duke Zhou, the third son of King Wen, made rude comments on every hexagram in the Book of Changes. Later, at the beginning of the spring and autumn, Confucius made a biography of the Book of Changes.

Fuxi created the Eight Diagrams of the Book of Changes, which originally had only symbols. Pronunciation is: dry, right, rational, true, training, watching, root, Kun. It is what we usually call Yijing gossip. It is these eight main hexagrams that produced the sixty-four hexagrams in the Book of Changes. It is usually called the Eight Classics Gua.

Fuxi used these symbols to express his understanding of Tao and his observation, recording and understanding of the laws of Yin and Yang.

Fuxi used symbols to express his great thoughts, philosophy and culture instead of words. For thousands of years, our common sense is that there were no words in Fuxi era. Is that so? Is it because humans didn't create the word Fuxi that symbols are used, or is there a word Fuxi that uses symbols instead of words?

Once, Confucius told his students that he would never preach again. The students said, what should we record if the teacher doesn't preach? Confucius said, look, did heaven speak? Heaven doesn't talk, but Tao exists! Confucius said that words are not enough.

Fuxi used a complete symbol system instead of words. Perhaps, as Confucius can understand, Tao is the most difficult to express in words.

We know that Fuxi's symbol system, the Book of Changes, the Eight Diagrams and even the sixty-four hexagrams, are all products of observation and records of observation. Perhaps the most undistorted record of human observation is description and imitation, not written expression.

Fuxi is the original creator of the Eight Diagrams in the Book of Changes. Fuxi is called innate gossip because it is easy to have no word symbol. After King Wen called it gossip the day after tomorrow, the appearance of words changed. The difference between innate gossip and the acquired gossip lies not in hexagrams, but in the concept of beginning and end.

What needs to be clear is that in the book of changes theory, the beginning and the end should be two concepts, two concepts in the philosophical sense. The former is the meaning of production, essence and body use, while the latter is the meaning of birth, phenomenon and result.

Three types of talents

Yin and Yang may be written in some interesting ways. The word "Yin" is the word of the moon with the moon beside its ear, telling people to listen to the moon with their ears. Common sense is that the moon or its light has no sound. How should we listen?
