The I Ching is unquestionably one of the most important books in the world's literature. Its origin goes back to mythical antiquity, and it has occupied the attention of the most eminent scholars of China down to the present day. Nearly all that is greatest and most significant in the three thousand years of Chinese cultural history has either taken its inspiration from this book, or has exerted an influence on the interpretation of its text. Therefore it may safely be said that the seasoned wisdom of thousands of years has gone into the making of the I Ching. Small wonder then that both of the two branches of Chinese philosophy, Confucianism and Taoism, have their common roots here. The text of the I Ching is a set of oracular statements represented by 64 sets of six lines each called hexagrams (卦 guà). Each hexagram is a figure composed of six stacked horizontal lines (爻 yáo), each line is either Yang (an unbroken, or solid line), or Yin (broken, an open line with a gap in the center). With six such lines stacked from bottom to top there are 26 or 64 possible combinations, and thus 64 hexagrams represented. I Ching means 'Book of Changes', and change is the one constant throughout the book. As things keep changing at a faster rate these days, maybe there will come a time when the rate of change will reach such a speed that change is all that will exist. Various fringe scientists have tried to calculate this point of infinity, giving us calculated dates ranging from 2010 to 2050. Dates that many of us will live to see. Perhaps the date is Dec 22, 2012. Ethnobotanists and fractal time experts Terrence and Dennis McKenna believe so, and they present their ideas in Invisible Landscape: Mind Hallucinogens and the I Ching (1993). Their studies began with the I Ching, which is composed of 64 hexagrams, or six-line figures. It struck them that 6 x 64 = 384, which is exceptionally close to the number of days in 13 lunar months (29.5306 x 13 = 383.8978), and that maybe the I Ching was originally an ancient Chinese calendar. Further multiples had astronomical significance: 1 day x 64 x 6 = 384 days = 13 lunar months 384 days x 64 = 67 years, 104.25 days = 6 minor sunspot cycles (11.2 years each) 67 years, 104.25 days x 64 = 4306+ years = 2 Zodiacal ages 4306+ years x 6 = 25836 years = 1 precession of the equinoxes sources: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_hexagrams_of_the_I_Ching www.iging.com/intro/introduc.htm en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Ching survive2012.com/index.php/fractal-ching.html © Copyright 2010 Michael Paukner.
