Yijing were additions to the original texts; the latter making up the hexagram judgments by King Wen and the explications of the lines of the hexagrams by the Duke of Zhou, or they might be construed as mathematical formulae of eight trigrams permutated into sixty-four hexagrams and translated into poetical imagery.
Yijing presents less or little difficulty in the quest for documentary or epigraphic evidence, the act of probing the Skanda-Murukan symbolisms must rely on a process which, as it were, works retrospectively, a quest leading backwards to its origins, an area still in academic conjectural darkness.

'Yijing' is the more modern pinyin transliteration of the two Chinese characters, 'yi' (change) and 'jing' (book or classic) that used to be represented in the old Wade-Giles system as 'I Ching'.

The core of the Yijing consists of 64 so-called 'hexagrams': these are drawings of 6 lines, solid or broken, that represent a symbolic meaning by their inter-related positions.
The Yijing doesn't predict the future as a fixed phenomenon; instead it suggests the best attitude or action to be taken in a situation to have a chance to get were you want to go.
A thorough knowledge of the Yijing is thus a must for everyone interested in in-depth knowledge of the Chinese culture and philosophy.

The Yijing reveals the great wisdom and understanding concerning nature and man that can be found when one begins to comprehend the stages of change that take place in every thing, person and situation found in nature.
The Chinese character for the word Yi is created by combining the symbols for the sun and the moon, and this combination presents the most fundamental perception of Chinese philosophy towards experience and life.
The study of the Yijing evolved from this simple idea, to consider all the things that have physical reality and how humans' experience, do, say, feel, and deal with life.

Second, by examining and explaining the metaphysical status and nature of the ideographic signs, the yin-yao and yang-yao and the hexagram in the Yijing, I endeavour to show that what come into play in the Yijing are two metaphysical perspectives, the changing/becoming-concerned perspective and the unchanging/being-concerned perspective, rather than merely the former one.
It is known that the Yin-Yang metaphysical vision of the Yijing (I Ching), reflecting some collective wisdom of ancient Chinese people on the nature and fundamental features of the universe, has fundamentally influenced the orientation of mentality, and the way of metaphysical thinking, of subsequent Chinese thinkers in various schools or movements.
Although the harmonious stability is a kind of dynamic equilibrium, this metaphysical characteristic as highlighted in the Yijing should be adequately characterized in terms of being-unchanging in changing-becoming and their interaction and interdependence rather than in mere terms of changing and becoming alone.

 Classicism and Literati Political Activism: Studies of Northern Song Yijing Commentaries, 960-1127
Compiled in the seventh century, the Zhouyi zhengyi was the official Yijing commentary of the Northern Song and as such, it was examined in the mingjing (understanding the classic) part of the civil service examinations.
Despite their differences, it is my opinion that the three Yijing commentators were part of the socio-intellectual change of eleventh-century China, and they contributed significantly to the re-establishment of civil governance.
To different degrees, they were instrumental in fostering the political idealism of Northern Song literati, which was expressed in full force in the two drastic reforms of mid- and late-Northern Song: the 1043-44 reform of Fan Zhongyan, and the 1068-85 reform of Wang Anshi.

 [No title]
Course description: Over the past two millennia or so, the Yijing (I Ching; Classic of Changes) has been, with the notable exception of the Bible, the most widely read and extensively commented upon book in all of world literature.
Having emerged in China about three thousand years ago as an occult prognostication text, the Yijing eventually attained the status of a "classic" in 136 B.C.E. Over the next several hundred years its influence gradually spread to other areas within the Chinese cultural orbit in East Asia--notably Japan, Korea, Annam (Vietnam) and Tibet.
During the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, Jesuit missionaries brought knowledge of the classic to the West; and today there are dozens of different translations of the Changes in various European languages.

 I-Ching, or Yijing Metaphysics of Sung Dynasty. 1
During the Sung Dynasty, speculations on the structure of the cosmos, in the form of what we shall call the "Yijing metaphysics", were in such fashion and proliferated.
The yijing metaphysicians however articulate this structure of the cosmos (universal among pre-modern humankind) quantitatively, naming it, measuring it, with numbers, i.e.
Thus the Yijing metaphysics contains a fundamental insight into the truth of existence, that space-time is the negation of existence so that existence is possible only as spatial and temporal in order to have its existence cancelled at the same time in accordance with the law of Conservation.

She has rare insights into what the oracle meant to people at the time it was written - which, as you know, all feeds into what it means for us today.
Of course, the Yijing uses relationship imagery to talk about all kinds of life experience: 'relationships' with jobs, or ideas, or groups of people, as well as romantic relationships.

 Appendix to "The Yijing" article from EAA 8:2, Fall 2003   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
The Yijing is also commonly known as the Book of Changes, Livre des mutations, Livre des changements, Das Buch der Wandlungen, etc. Another title of the work, reflecting its pre-imperial origins, is the Zhouyi, Chou-i, Djohi, etc. [The Zhou/Chou/Djoh Changes].
Yijing study groups have sprung up in every city, and public lectures on the Changes are now more or less common fare.
One particularly interesting example of the "globalization" of the Yijing is the eighteenth-century effort by Jesuit "Figurists" (including Joachim Bouvet, Phillipe Couplet, Joseph Prémare, etc.) to link the Changes to the Bible (and to other Western works, including the Kabbalah).
