Why do many people think Zhouyi is superstitious?

This is a question worth pondering. Why? This is the preconceived cognition of modern people that Zhouyi is divination and divination is superstition! Plus a lot of modernity? Master? That is to say, I use Zhouyi to read divination for everyone. Of course, there are experts, but more are charlatans and those who are ignorant and deceptive because of their? Lead by example? Let Zhouyi be labeled as superstitious!

In fact, as you said, most of these people who believe that Zhouyi is superstitious have not read Zhouyi well, or think that Zhouyi is superstitious and disdainful of reading Zhouyi. So the question is coming? Is it really advisable for us to deny something without knowing it and deny it without strong evidence? I don't think so, but many people do it now, thinking? I don't agree with you, but I can't say why. Ok, let me briefly talk about their psychology.

First of all, get quick success and instant benefit. For example, if there is a crash course or an advanced course in Zhouyi, maybe many people are willing to learn it, because it is a crash course! Everyone wants to get the best things in the least time. But contrary to expectations, as we all know, everything needs hard work and a process, and it is impossible to pull out the seedlings and encourage them. Zhouyi has been produced for a long time. Due to the evolution of dynasties, wars and many other reasons, many contents have been deleted or scattered, or cut into other books, fragmented, leaving only the original text that is difficult to understand, without reference, unable to start, and inevitably boring. Unlike learning languages now, there is a dictionary. There is no dictionary in Zhouyi, only thousands of years of ancient books, which need deep cultivation to find out the true meaning and restore the truth. This is a difficult thing.

Secondly, I look forward to the divination of Zhouyi too much and think that everything can be solved by divination. But someone told me, don't you understand Zhouyi? Then give me a divination to see what food I ate today and how I felt after eating it. To tell the truth, this is pure fault! You don't necessarily understand what you can do without doing it. You have to do it to understand it. You can't say that you can write an earth-shattering article, can you? So if you refuse these people's demands, they will immediately change their faces and say that you think Zhouyi is a lie, and such a simple thing can't be measured, which is a lie. To be honest, this is also a state of mind. I did, but I laughed without saying a word.

Finally, this is related to the history and national conditions since modern times. Since the late Qing Dynasty, the political situation has been turbulent and deeply humiliated by foreign countries. Coupled with western technology, expanding territory is indeed better than our culture. Coupled with the conservative style of study, the decline of literati, learned people have followed the example of the west, and those who have no knowledge have traveled the rivers and lakes with Zhouyi, and they can't consider the true meaning of reading for a living. Therefore, Zhouyi has a close relationship with Jianghu deception for nearly a hundred years. In the end, the people not only didn't believe in it, but also really didn't believe it. Besides, in the past three hundred years, there have never been such people as Li and Liu Bowen, not even Jiang Dahong. No one can turn the tide and change the world's view, and no one wants to do such a thing again. Therefore, there are historical reasons why the reason of Zhouyi is not obvious.

So, is Zhouyi superstitious? I don't think so. Although later generations compiled many things and books related to superstition under the guise of Zhouyi, this is only the tip of the iceberg and cannot cover up the essence of Zhouyi. From the source, we can see that Zhouyi has a great relationship with ancient astronomy, calendar, national politics and agricultural production. It can be said that it is a kind of painting for people, that is, it is not only a summary of people's lives, but also a criterion for understanding people's lives. Now it seems that although Zhouyi has many imperfections, it was undoubtedly very useful thousands of years ago.
