What is the Book of Changes?

The full name of The Original Purpose of the Book of Changes is The Original Purpose of the Book of Changes-Basic Principles of Root Art, written by Hong Shenyu. This is a modern academic work that systematically and comprehensively explains the basic principles of China's ancient Yi-ology. As we all know, Yi-ology is the source of China culture and the earliest philosophy of China. Fuxi founded the Book of Changes, and there was no clear text to express it at that time. Fuxi created images to express the principle of image number of Yi-ology, and invented the principle of image number to express the changes of everything, thus forming Fuxi's Yi-ology works He Tu, Luo Shu and Yao Gui, which are collectively called Fuxi's Yijing Yuan. After the establishment of Yi-ology, it was used for divination and spread through divination, so ghosts and ghosts were called hexagrams, forming a series of famous books such as Three Changes, Lianshan, Ghost Stories and Zhouyi. Fuxi's primitive Yi-ology and divination Yi-ology are very abstract and abstruse, and it is difficult for non-professional scholars to understand the Yi-ology meaning expressed in them. Ancient and modern Yi-ology experts are basically divination Yi-ology, especially Zhouyi, which forms a cycle of explaining Yi-ology. For a long time, only a few scholars have studied Yi-ology. Nowadays, experts and scholars of Yi-ology study Yi-ology, which is also an interpretation of ancient works of Yi-ology, without studying the basic principles and significance of Yi-ology as a discipline. More than a year ago, Chinese mainland scholar Hong Shenyu wrote The Original Theory of Yi-the Basic Principles of Root Art, which became the first book in history to comprehensively express the basic principles and meanings of Yi-ology with a popular and transparent language system.

The Book of Changes is a classic book of Yin and Yang hexagrams, which contains extremely profound contents of Yin and Yang hexagrams. Due to the long-term rejection of Confucianism, all the works of Yi-ology that were not respected by Confucianism were burned or banned from circulation, and Yi-ology mainly relied on the dissemination of Zhouyi. The book "The Original Meaning of Zhouyi-Basic Principles of Roots Art" expresses the basic principles of all Yi-ology (such as one-dimensional Taiji Yi-ology, two-dimensional Yin-Yang Yi-ology, three-dimensional Yi-ology, four-dimensional Yi-ology, five-dimensional Yi-ology, six-dimensional Yi-ology, etc.). Therefore, the principle of Yi-ology expressed in Zhouyi is only a part of the basic principle system of Yi-ology expressed in the original theory of Yi-ology in Basic Principles of Roots Art.. In addition, The Book of Changes is a book of divination and applied Yi-ology expressed in ancient Chinese, while The Original Theory of Zhouyi-Basic Principles of Root Art is a basic principle system of Yi-ology expressed in modern Chinese in modern academic form.
