1、 The Historical and Cultural Value of the Book of Changes
（1） Viewing the History of Ancient Chinese Religion from the Book of Changes
The Book of Changes has well preserved the materials of ancient Chinese religious history. Starting from the divination in the Book of Changes, we can have a complete understanding of ancient Chinese religion. Although before the Book of Changes, there were the Xia Dynasty's "Lianshan Yi" and the Yin Shang Dynasty's "Guicang Yi", both of these scriptures have been lost, and we have no way of understanding their original appearance. Using the Book of Changes for divination cannot be a scientific prediction, but its explanation of good and bad luck can provide spiritual and psychological comfort, as well as some reminders and warnings. Among them, the Book of Changes also emphasizes the cultivation of virtue and the reverence for heaven and earth, which are concrete manifestations of ancient religious ethics.
The attitude of ancient people towards divination was not as superstitious as we imagine, as evidenced by a story recorded in the Book of Documents, Hong Fan.
Legend has it that Jizi was a courtier during the Yin and Shang dynasties. He was a very knowledgeable and highly respected person, so many people admired him. After successfully suppressing King Zhou of Shang, King Wu of Zhou visited him and sought his advice on governing the country. Jizi proposed some plans or principles, urging King Wu to remember the six character governance policy of "following public opinion" and "favoring virtuous officials". Among these plans, only two were related to divination, while the rest were unrelated to divination. This indicates that in ancient times, people did not rely solely on divination for their actions.
（2） Viewing the History of Ancient Chinese Science from the Book of Changes
The viewpoint of the late contemporary renowned Yi Jing scholar, Mr. Pan Yuting (1925-1991), is that the Book of Changes has scientific principles and is not anti scientific. When ancient Chinese people asked questions about divination, they would ask various questions, and the Book of Changes, as a divination book, naturally involved these questions. In the summary of the content related to the Book of Changes in the Complete Library of Four Treasures, it is said: "The Yi Dao is vast and comprehensive, covering everything, including astronomy, geography, music and law, military strategy, rhyme studies, and arithmetic. It can be inferred from the fire outside that the Yi Dao can be used as a reference." This means that ancient astronomy, geography, music and law, military strategy, rhyme studies, arithmetic, and even Taoist alchemy are all related to the Book of Changes. So now, as long as we read the Book of Changes, we can feel the ancient sages' thoughts on various life issues or scientific and technological laws.
The reason why we modern people can draw wisdom from the Book of Changes is because ancient and modern humans are interconnected. The problems faced by ancient people are also encountered by us today. Although ancient people did not face modern issues such as environmental protection, prevention and control of nuclear proliferation, prevention and control of computer viruses, and elimination of financial crises, some questions such as "how to proceed smoothly", "how to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune", "how to live happily", and "how to live happily" still need inspiration from the Book of Changes. Many life problems can transcend the times, and although the answers to these problems may have the characteristics of the times, the thoughts of ancient sages on these issues are also very enlightening for us.
（3） Viewing the History of Ancient Chinese Logic from the Book of Changes
Science must be based on logic. Saying that the Book of Changes has historical significance in science and technology actually emphasizes that the Book of Changes has logic and is a very clever logic. There is a logician who specializes in studying the logic in the Book of Changes. From his research results, it can be seen that the logic in the Book of Changes is profound and has modern significance.
The Book of Changes is a process of summarizing what kind of principles humans should have in dealing with the world from revealing the laws of nature and society. The process of completing this creative intention is actually a process of reasoning. More importantly, it constructs the world through a system of symbols. The entire book of the Book of Changes explains the laws of things through 64 hexagrams and 450 lines of hexagrams and lines, which is itself logical reasoning. However, the analogical logical reasoning in the Book of Changes is very different from the analytical logical reasoning we commonly use now. In addition, there is already a dialectical relationship of opposition and unity in the Book of Changes, such as the Yin Yang relationship in "One Yin and One Yang is called the Dao", which is a dialectical relationship of opposition; There is yin in yang and yang in yin ", where opposing elements coexist in the same relationship and become a harmonious whole, this is the germ of dialectical thinking. Understanding the development of ancient Chinese logic from the Book of Changes can help us gain a deeper understanding of its value.
（4） Viewing the History of Ancient Chinese Philosophy from the Book of Changes
We know that the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period were a period of great intellectual prosperity and cultural breakthroughs in Chinese cultural history, among which the breakthrough in philosophical thought was the most crucial. From the Book of Changes, we can see the great breakthrough of ancient Chinese thought and clarify the development of ancient Chinese philosophical thought. Chinese philosophy is absolutely inseparable from the ideas of the Book of Changes. Laozi and Confucius were cultural heroes during the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, and their intellectual creations largely absorbed the wisdom of the Book of Changes. From Confucius until today, everyone believes that the Book of Changes is the source of Chinese philosophy. Mr. Xiong Shili, a modern philosopher, started from the Book of Changes and integrated Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism to construct a philosophical system based on the ideas of the Book of Changes. The future development of Chinese philosophy cannot achieve new breakthroughs without the Book of Changes. Although the Analects and Tao Te Ching have profound thoughts, their ideas are also theoretical systems constructed in explaining the Book of Changes. Starting from the Book of Changes and following its principles, utilizing the thinking of the Book of Changes to construct modern philosophical ideas is an important creative path.
2、 Profound and profound philosophical theories
How to further understand the philosophical or ethical ideas of the Book of Changes from a philosophical perspective? We also need to start from the Book of Changes, use the thinking mode of the Book of Changes, grasp the ethical ideas of the Book of Changes, and seek inspiration from the Book of Changes. In order to strengthen the idea of educating gentlemen in the Book of Changes, we may start from the theory of gentlemen and view the value of the Book of Changes from its inspiration for gentlemen's self-cultivation.
（1） He arrived
The idea of harmonizing yin and yang is extremely important in the Book of Changes: life cannot be separated from the harmony of yin and yang. If yin and yang are not in harmony, one will fall ill. If yin and yang are in harmony, everything will go smoothly and the body will be healthy and peaceful; The combination of yin and yang in a country is the unity of heaven and man, which leads to the prosperity and flourishing of the country. In ancient times, it was a great event for King Wu of Zhou to replace King Zhou of Shang. As a lower ranking feudal lord, replacing the high-ranking King Zhou of Shang, this behavior itself seems to be a clash between yin and yang. So, how can we find a reasonable explanation that will make the people wholeheartedly accept it? They put forward the idea of "matching virtue with heaven and earth" and "matching virtue with heaven", which makes people reflect on their own moral cultivation while believing in the will of heaven. As long as it meets the moral requirements of heaven and earth, there is no such thing as high or low, noble or lowly. There is no constant hierarchy or relationship between heaven and man in the world. At this point, it depends on who has virtue, who can achieve unity between the ruler and the people, unity of heaven and earth, and harmony between yin and yang.
（2） Respect and light
Everyone needs respect and desires to be respected. From the perspective of the harmony of yin and yang, and from the perspective of the unity of heaven and man, this' respect 'is a respect for heaven and earth, a respect for the virtues of heaven and earth, and a respect for the truly selfless and great personality.
Respect and light "means that as long as we respect the virtues of life in heaven and earth, we can not only feel the radiance of nature, but also display our own radiance. With virtue comes radiance, and with virtue comes dignity. The reason why King Zhou of Shang was executed was because he lacked virtue and lost his respected glory. King Zhou of Shang lost the support of the people due to his lack of virtue, and "gaining the support of the people leads to gaining the world." The emphasis on "respecting and shining with the support of the people" highlights the importance of moral character. You follow the will of the people, which is equivalent to following the will of heaven; By adhering to morality, you value the 'light of a gentleman'. Only with virtue can one have the "light of a gentleman", and only with the "light of a gentleman" can one be worthy of "respect" and reach the realm of "respect and light".
（3） The Way of Building a Person: Benevolence and Righteousness
The original text is "The way to establish the heavens is yin and yang, the way to establish the earth is gentle and strong, and the way to establish people is benevolent and righteous." This is the interpretation of the Book of Changes in the Yi Zhuan, which means that heaven, earth, and man each have their own virtues and strengths. So, where is the power of human beings? It lies in benevolence and righteousness: benevolence is love, love, reverence, and universal love; Righteousness means justice, equality, and righteousness, which means we must uphold principles.
From this, it can be seen that moral character is indeed very important, so the Book of Changes repeatedly mentions the term "gentleman" in the fifteen hexagrams and lines. From this, you can imagine the emphasis on human moral character in the Book of Changes. Apart from matching virtue with heaven and earth and receiving their favor, people cannot find any other way. Obviously, it is impossible to do evil deeds.
