What's the difference between Zhouyi and Yijing?

The Book of Changes is one of the Book of Changes and Three Changes, and it is also one of the traditional classics. It is said that it was written by Zhou Wenwang Ji Chang, including the Book of Changes and biographies. Classics are mainly composed of 64 hexagrams and 384 hexagrams, each of which has its own interpretation (hexagrams) for divination. It carries seven kinds of words * * * and ten epigrams, which are collectively called Ten Wings.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, official schools began to evolve into private schools. There is a gradual development before and after the Yi-ology, and a hundred schools of thought contend, so it is easy to divide. Since Confucius praised the Book of Changes, the Book of Changes has been regarded as a Confucian classic and the first of the Six Classics by Confucianism.

Book writing background

In the early society of China, due to the low productivity and underdeveloped science, the ancestors could not make scientific explanations for natural phenomena, social phenomena and human physiological phenomena, which led to the worship of God. When people suffer from natural and man-made disasters repeatedly, they have the idea of using God's will to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. In the long-term practice, various prediction methods have been invented to communicate between man and god, and the Zhouyi, which can best reflect the meaning of god, is produced under such conditions.

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.

Confucius studied the Book of Changes, and there are two most notable ones: the political proposition of correcting the name and the thought of analogy. In the reasoning rules of the Book of Changes, there is a "position law" about whether Yin and Yang are consistent with their positions. Confucius extended this deduction rule to the social and political field and put forward the theory of "correcting names"
