Store description excerpt
The YOUNG I ChING 太玄經 ORACLE , March 2023 From he computer program THE YOUNG I CHING, modeled on T'ai Hsüan Ching 太玄經 (English: Canon of Supreme Mystery), you can expect food for thought on how to cope with difficult situations. Start playing THE YOUNG I CHING (Mystery) as follows: 1. Contemplate your question before typing it in, starting with something like why, how come, etc., avoid questions that can only be answered with yes or no. 2. The computer provides the current date and time. 3. You’ll get an immediate answer including a number (more on these later), - done! Even if you get an answer to your question that you can't make head nor tail, do not reject it from the outset. Take your time - gain distance and relax while looking at the dreamlike background pictures - allow any association and try to playfully resolve the complications in your thoughts. Historical: It is believed that the Chinese scholar Yang Hsiung (also Yang Xiong, 53 B.C. - 18 A.D.) gave his T'ai Hsüan Ching ( 太玄經 Mystery) to the I Ching (周易, Chou I, or Changes) which he held in high esteem but was in danger of being forgotten, in order to give the latter new impetus. "By the first century B.C. the I Ching consisted of a set of sixty-four texts, each associated with a six line graph ( or "hexagram"), in which component lines could be either solid or broken (signifying yang if solid, yin if broken). Under each hexagram, there are six assigned texts, each of which corresponds to one line of the graphic symbol (hence, the "Line Texts"). The core text of the Mystery, like that of its prototype, the Changes, presents a series of linear complexes. For the hexagram of the Changes, however, the Mystery substitutes a four-line "tetragram" whose component parts read from top to bottom (i.e., in the opposite order from the Changes). Also in contrast to the Changes, where the lines are categorized as either yin (broken) or yang (unbroken), the divination procedure prescribed in Yang's instructions involves three possibilities for each line of the graph: (1) an unbroken line (correlated with Heaven), (2) a line broken once (representing Earth), or (3) a line broken twice (symbolizing Man as one of the triadic realms, living between Heaven and Earth)". Michael Nylan, "THE ELEMENTAL CHANGES", The Ancient Chinese Companion to The I Ching, translated by Michael Nylan, SUNY, New York, 1994. p.8. In addition to these appraisals, you will receive two numbers as the answer, a) that of the trigram and b) that of the appraisal, so that you can read the full version at Michael Nylan's correct translation. Method: a) An alphabetical code (a=1, b=2, and so on) is used to convert the letters in the question into numbers, which are then added. The sum (according to Shao Yong), is transformed into the upper bigram. b) The hour, month, and year are automatically obtained from the computer. A specific algorithm is applied in order to combine these with the day and convert them into the low
