About the book
"The Ling Ch'i Ching was first created by an unknown Chinese scholar who consciously sought to offer an alternative to the esoteric, complicated I Ching. For centuries the more accessible Ling Ch'i Ching has been a popular divination device for attaining self-knowledge and wisdom. Like its more famous cousin, the I Ching, the Ling Ch'i Ching is rich in poetic language and metaphorical imagery, linking the dynamic principles of heaven and earth with one's own life experience." "Ralph Sawyer's translation highlights the contemporary relevancy of the text, providing clear notes on the structure of the text and verses, explanation of the commentaries, a glossary, and a consoltation chart. And, there are no "moving lines" to interpret. Sawyer also includes selections from classical commentaries, as well his own commentary. This text is an effective tool for tackling the concerns of day-to-day life, and it provides inspiration for staying on a positive life course."--BOOK JACKET.
