Is the Book of Changes so powerful?

This statement may be far-fetched, but the Book of Changes is indeed one of China's greatest books since ancient times. So far, it is recognized that no book can be compared with the Book of Changes.

Let me give you an example. Confucius deleted four books and five classics, but did not change a word of the Book of Changes. In his later years, he devoted himself to studying the Book of Changes.

Ji Xiaolan's Sikuquanshu is divided into subsets of classics and history according to their importance, and Yijing is the most important one, which means Yijing is one of the most valued books in Sikuquanshu.

Besides, according to tradition, the author of the Book of Changes said that the Book of Changes wrote that "people are more sacred and the world is three ancient." In other words, The Book of Changes has experienced three times (so-called "three ancient times"), which were completed by three saints: Fuxi, King Wen and Confucius. Isn't this a grand lineup of authors?

Besides, The Book of Changes and A Dream of Red Mansions are the most widely studied books in China, but The Book of Changes has more and deeper research problems than A Dream of Red Mansions.

Finally, talk about applications. The ancient geomantic divination in China originated from the Book of Changes. Of course, the most important thing about the Book of Changes is that it is a philosophical work.
