I CHING


"The fact of One Yin and One Yang is Dao"
Take a glimpse into the mystery of our Universe


Zhou Gong Dan, the younger brother of Zhou Wu Wang, the first king of the Zhou Dynasty, compiled the accumulated wisdom prior to his time (around 1000 B.C.) into a "book" named "Yi" (Changes). 500 years later, Confucius edited the "Book of Yi" and added footnotes on several paragraphs and chapters. His works on "Yi" is later called "Zhou Yi". The texts selected for our studies are from "Zhou Yi" - Zhou's Book of Changes, edited by Confucius.

Prerequisite: post-secondary education (in English language).

This course will focus on:

  • The Theory of Ying and Yang - the Chinese system of binary code; Tian Gan (Heavenly Pillars) and Ti Zi (Earthly Supports) - the enumeration system of days, months, seasons and years; Wu Xiung (The Five Elements) - Earth, Water, Metal (Gold), Fire and Wood
  • Feng Sui (The Wind and Water) - The relationship of the five elements and their energies to our geographical habitat and daily life
The course will also touch on the area of Divination, the evolution of the 64 occurences derived from the Ba Gua - Octagonal System, but not in detail.
