Complete Translation of Zhouyi

"Book of Changes" is based on the Fuxi Bagua, with Qian, Kun, Zhen, Gen, Li, Kan, Dui and Xun respectively representing heaven, earth, thunder, mountain, fire, water, Ze and wind. It further combines the Bagua in pairs to derive sixty-four hexagrams, which reveal the inner laws of the yin and yang of heaven and earth to create all things, and sublimate it into the ideological core of Chinese civilization. Its content involves astronomy, geography, economy, culture, self-cultivation, and hospitality... All-encompassing and endless mystery. "Book of Changes" consists of two parts: Jing and Zhuan. Jing mainly explains each hexagram and line and was used for divination in ancient times; Zhuan is used to explain the content of the Sutra and give philosophical understanding to the divination words. The classics and legends complement each other, contain simple laws of universe evolution and the development laws of human society, and are the roots of natural philosophy and ethical practice in traditional Chinese thought and culture. They are known as "the first of the classics and the source of the great road".
