Description
Among the oldest books ever written the I Ching offers a conception of the world different from all other systems of thought found in the East. It is not based on religious doctrine, but on the observation of nature and human life, the inter- action of universal laws and individual behaviour, of free will and destiny. It makes 'Change' itself the centre of observation and recognises Time' as the essential factor in the structure of the world and the development of the individual. 'Change' the authors believe is not accidental and the I Ching has been an instrument of divination, the prediction of the future, for over 3000 years.
John Blofeld lives in Thailand and has studied Buddhism and Taoism most of his life. His books include The Way of Power and Beyond the Gods.
