易经与人生-傅佩荣有声书 1.6.1

The "I Ching," regarded as the foremost of the classic texts, is often referred to as the study of the harmony between heaven and humanity. It is a work that is both well-known and enigmatic, embodying the wisdom of ancient scholars and encapsulating the principles governing the transformations of the universe.

Professor Fu Peirong from National Taiwan University approaches the subject from the perspective of hexagrams, presenting the material in an accessible yet profound manner. He emphasizes that "learning does not guarantee understanding, and understanding does not guarantee application, but once learned, the knowledge remains invaluable throughout one's life." Through his teachings, Professor Fu imparts essential wisdom from the "I Ching" on navigating interpersonal relations, effectively making this ancient text comprehensible.

Classified among philosophical classics, the "I Ching" represents a comprehensive philosophical system. It consistently reveals that the rightful path in life entails cultivating virtue, enhancing abilities, and inspiring wisdom.

As observed by Hegel, “The 'I Ching' embodies the wisdom of the Chinese people. It seeks to uncover the essence of humanity through the symbols and images shaped by human consciousness—an endeavor of great nobility. My greatest regret in life is not having fully grasped the depth of the 'I Ching.'”
