waterdrop Posted September 13, 2022 What are peoples thoughts on a yes/no oracle ? asking maybe also about i-ching direct answers of yes no (not ones with interpretation - not like "stopping to train will cause your health go bad , continuation brings good fortune " but "should i keep training?" reply "yes") and asking about other types of oracles that maybe can give more direct answers the the yijing ? should i go to this event ? flip a coin ... should i take drugs and kill some people ? flip a coin .... should i buy this product ? flip a coin ... if i order this product will it be broken ? flip a coin ......... what is the problem with that ? why it doesnt work ? (or maybe if 1 coin is some satistical issue than maybe flip more coins ... maybe 3 o4 or even a 100) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lairg Posted September 13, 2022 Usefully flipping a coin probably needs: - a competent sponsor willing to assist the tosser - the tosser making contact with the sponsor at the time of tossing - the sponsor considering a response worthwhile at that time If the tosser is looking to gain personal advantage, it may be better to seek a dark sponsor that does not extract too great a price for cooperation Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lairg Posted September 13, 2022 I used to use the I Ching many years ago with a lot of success. Recently I used it again to find a proper place to live - very pleased. Since then I have taken interest in the intelligence behind the I Ching. I see two intelligences - a male and a female. Perhaps they are the yin and yang of a single intelligence. They seem happy for me to use a pendulum for yes-no-maybe answers They are higher devas with strong rhythmic qualities - connected to the life force of this planet. They have responsibilities across both physical and non-physical species. The oracle work is a small educational component of their functions Their energy is around the planet but with various focal points over north west China for the relevant life forms. http://www.soul-guidance.com/houseofthesun/ET/devas.htm https://slife.org/deva-in-buddhism/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Barnaby Posted January 2 (edited) Sorry to resurrect an old thread, but my attention just got drawn to the Yijing section... Anyone remember this? Seems germane to the OP somehow... Edited January 2 by Barnaby Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
