  1. Western Origins of Yijing?

    The Chinese call Japan 日本 (ri4 sun ben3 origin) where the sun rises.
  2. Wuji Posture

    (have not read the thread) I like the Standing Wuji practice (I dislike the ‘tree hugging’ zhan zhuang).

    China's book burning (213 BC), later a lot of the lost texts were rewritten from memory/imagination.
  4. Western Origins of Yijing?

    Who knows. Most of the I Ching is from the Warring States period. It’s origins are mythical (taken as fact by traditional texts). Modern scholarship dates the oldest bits to late 9th century BC (using bronze inscriptions). Rome's origins trace to around the 9th or 10th century BC as small settlements.

    The “threefold” = the binary poles + integration. It’s always about integration: {陰 (yin) + 陽 (yang)} ~> 中 (zhong)
  12. It’s always about integration: {(blue/white (thinking/morality) + red/orange (survival/sexuality)} ~> yellow/green (free will/love).
