Is there any scientific truth in Zhou Yizhi's theory? Please, great gods.

Zhouyi is a mysterious temple. As one of the oldest and most famous books in China, it has been circulated for nearly three thousand years. In the long history, although people have different views on it, we feel its influence all the time. Not only the profound thinking mode, ethics, aesthetic consciousness, value system, philosophy and other elements in China culture, we can all find our roots in Zhouyi. Moreover, folk culture, customs, daily words and deeds, living standards and astronomical calendars can also find their own source. It is so profound and ancient, and so mysterious that it still exudes attractive brilliance. So, what kind of book is Zhouyi? What's in it? Can cause such a strong mystery? Please let us lift the torch of reason, open its heavy door and step into this mysterious hall! 1. The Book of Changes is the source and symbol of China culture. China people are the best at improvising and coping with changes with the same. China's philosophy holds that since man is a part of nature and nature is also a part of man, it is normal to achieve the state of "harmony between man and nature". It is also reasonable to believe that human beings can predict the future of human beings according to the changes in nature. The Book of Changes is the best example of this cultural tendency. Because of its cultural connotation, Zhouyi has been regarded as a "book of saints" in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Through the study of Zhouyi, people not only absorbed many valuable factors, but also gradually formed a special knowledge-Yi-ology. Year after year, from generation to generation, I have gone through different stages and given birth to various schools. The book Zhouyi has also been circulated for a long time, and it has a long history. At the same time, the spread of Zhouyi among the people is also in full swing. It has become a guideline to guide people's lives, standardize people's words and deeds, and become a guide for people to observe and analyze problems. For a long time, intellectuals in China often use the world outlook embodied in Zhouyi to understand and explain this changeable and colorful world, while the lower classes are more "easy to use". You have to admit that The Book of Changes has a wide influence among China people. It surpasses anyone and any book in history. Isn't such a large-scale cultural phenomenon worthy of our study and meditation? Until today, Zhouyi still occupies an important position in our lives. Some people call it "the knowledge of life, the truth of the universe, the wisdom of culture and the source of value." Some people praised it as "the algebra of the universe" and "the jewel in the crown of science". In a word, Zhouyi contains rich and profound thoughts in its divination form, and the obscure words shine with wisdom. It is not only an important source of China traditional culture, but also a typical symbol of Chinese civilization. If you think you can understand Zhouyi, it is certainly unfounded, but if you ignore it. Secondly, the unique book structure of Zhouyi is difficult to understand, and people regard it as a heavenly book, which is of course related to its ancient history and brevity, as well as its different structure and high generalization of the expressed ideas. Zhouyi is divided into two parts: classics and biographies, and ancient books and records are separated. Biography is the interpretation and development of classics, and naturally it is not a classic. For example, the Spring and Autumn Annals has about 16000 words, and its explanations include Biography of Ram, Biography of Gu Liang and Biography of Zuo, which are collectively called Biography of Spring and Autumn Annals. But the Book of Changes is different, treating all classics as classics! Example: There are brief explanations in the sixty-four hexagrams. Due to the above characteristics of Zhouyi, its content is vague, concise and profound. It provides learners with a broad world of association and play, which is also its enduring charm for thousands of years. I just want to honestly do some popular propaganda work for the spread of Zhouyi, so I won't go into details. If any friend should be interested in it and become an expert in related fields in the future, I must feel very lucky. 3. Is Zhouyi a divination book or a philosophy book? After understanding Zhouyi, we will naturally ask such a question. What kind of book is Zhouyi? The essence of Zhouyi is a book of divination, so it can't be wrong. The problem is that Zhouyi does contain rich philosophical thoughts. One view is that Zhouyi is a pure divination book. The purpose of studying Zhouyi is to understand and practice divination. Those who hold the former opinion are the so-called imagists, while those who hold the latter opinion are the rationalists. There are two schools of thought, image number and righteousness, which are competing with each other, and the rest are still there. Today, we don't want to comment on the success or failure of these two schools. We just hope that people can understand it with a more tolerant attitude and a more rational concept of mental state security. If we don't make this theory against our will, we probably have to admit that divination is concrete whether in ancient times when human history is ignorant or today when science and technology are highly developed. As Laozi said, "People's infatuation will last for a long time." In the past, we could openly blame "superstition" on people's ignorance and on the ignorance and deception of rulers. However, in the face of more and more facts, this statement seems to be self-defeating. At a deeper level, human beings live in a specific natural and social environment. Every generation and everyone lives in a specific natural and social environment. They must have moments when they can't control their own destiny, and they also have their own knowledge and reason to make correct judgments. Every time, individual free will is often useless. When human wisdom is insufficient or useless, people will lose the so-called rational standard when they act, so they can only use some accidental things as a guide, and all kinds of exquisite or simple divination will become the best decision-making tools. Therefore, if the existence of divination is regarded as a cultural and sociological phenomenon, its main function or profound significance does not lie in the accuracy of divination results. When you are at a loss, when you think hard and hesitate, you will occasionally rely on the power of divination to enhance your confidence, and you will be encouraged to form a judgment and decision on a difficult event. We will not consider whether this decision is correct for the time being. The key is to change the state of indecision and get rid of the anxiety and pain of making up your mind. Therefore, for practical problems, as long as human knowledge, rationality and wisdom still exist, we can see that divination is serious and serious from ancient times to the present. In the actual divination activities, human beings do not completely regard divination as the revelation of the gods to their hearts. Just think, if those fortune tellers have been blindly superstitious about ghosts and gods for thousands of years, they are all groundless nonsense, then why do they have so many fanatical believers? In fact, many outstanding fortune tellers often have quite good expectations for things.
