👉👉👉 Absolutely knowledge-boosting! Bring your notebook!!! This is a textbook-style guide to Bazi (Four Pillars of Destiny), Liuyao (Six Lines), and Plum Blossom Divination. I didn't know anything about fortune-telling, but I learned a lot from this book. 👍 The protagonist, Lin Haiyang, started out interested in metaphysics, then progressed to mastery, and finally gained insight. A child from an ordinary family, he worked a demanding three-shift miner job, experiencing daily frustration, depression, and exhaustion. To change his fate, Lin Haiyang began to self-study fortune-telling, buying books, studying, and taking notes repeatedly. He gradually started by telling fortunes for those around him, accumulating knowledge and practice over time. Through continuous learning and practical experience, Lin Haiyang constantly verified, revised, and expanded upon the knowledge in the books. After seven or eight years of uninterrupted study and practical experience, he finally achieved mastery. 🔅 His strong knowledge base and the principles of conduct he gleaned from the I Ching became the levers that propelled him forward steadily, from a small county town to a city, and eventually to a provincial capital… I don't understand fortune telling or other such knowledge, but I learned many principles of conduct from the book. Changing one's destiny must begin from within; the so-called self-improvement leads to the improvement of others, and personal strength is the only true principle. 🍎 Humility and adaptability allowed Lin Haiyang to thrive in his work. Young and talented yet humble, he was considerate of others and careful with his words. Especially his beautiful and intellectually inclined wife made the book sweet and heartwarming. ㊗️ We are all on the path, and no matter how you enter it, I hope you begin with the basics and end with enlightenment… Blessings to all!
