Yijing(易經), the book of change, is describing the interaction of all things within the concept of yin/yang. It uses the 8 trigrams to represent the 8 phenomena of nature.
-
The Yijing was introduced to Confucius, at the age of fifty, by Laotze. Then, he came up with his own explanation of the Yijing.

It is not a multiplication table. It is the combination of 8 trigrams by stacking them one by one. Then, it ends up with 64 combinations of hexagrams.
-
I thought you would ask. There are 8 trigrams in the Yijing to begin with. If you stack the first trigram on top of the 8 trigrams. Then, the second on top of the same 8 trigrams and so on. You will be ended with 64 hexagrams.

It is 8 x 8 = 64 8 trigram x 8 trigram = 64 hexagrams

Correction: A "received copy" was edited to make all the corrections for the mistakes in the codex.

The former is incorrect, the "received copy" is not a translation. It is only a codex. I won't argue the latter, but where is this same old standard translation?

乾: 元亨利貞 乾 is the first hexagram of the 64 hexagrams in the Yinjing. 元亨利貞 describes the positive characteristics of the 乾 hexagram. 1. 元 describes that 乾 is the origin of all things. It is the creator of all things. It is the nature of the universe. 2. 亨 describes that everything with 乾 is going smoothly with nature. 3. 利 describes that everything with 乾 is beneficial without interruption, deterrence, or damage. 4. 貞 describes that everything with 乾 is genuine.

There are many translations of the DDJ, but none of them is standard!

Sorry, I don't know him. My understanding was acquired from the correlation between Taoist texts and modern science. Sometimes, the ancient Taoist text does not make much sense. Thus I have to find my answer elsewhere to put things into perspective.

Yes, it is true.
