For him and for his son, Hellmut Wilhelm, the \u003ci\u003eBook of Changes\u003c\/i\u003e represented not just a mysterious book of oracles or a notable source of the Taoist and Confucian philosophies. In their hands, it emerges, as it did for C. G. Jung, as a vital key to humanity's age-old collective unconscious. Here the observations of the Wilhelms are combined in a volume that will reward specialists and aficionados with its treatment of historical context--and that will serve also as an introduction to the \u003ci\u003eI Ching\u003c\/i\u003e and the meaning of its famous hexagrams.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBack Jacket\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Heraclitus, who held that life was movement and that it developed through the conflict of opposites, also conceived a harmonious world order, the Logos, that shapes this chaos. But to the Chinese, as we shall see, the two principles, movement and the unchanging law governing it, are one: they know neither kernel nor husk-heart and mind function together undivided.\"\u003cb\u003e--Hellmut Wilhelm\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book was originally published in two volumes, \u003ci\u003eChange: Eight Lectures on the 'I Ching'\u003c\/i\u003e by \u003cb\u003eHellmut Wilhelm\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003ci\u003eLectures on the 'I Ching': Constancy and Change\u003c\/i\u003e by \u003cb\u003eRichard Wilhelm\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 352\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.88 x 8.15 x 4.83 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 04, 1995\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44820496908390,"sku":"9780691001715","price":40.28,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0599\/7255\/0758\/files\/T2ZHWndNQU5nbmJUcFZ2MTI5K3N0UT09.webp?v=1771952123","url":"https:\/\/infinitylightwa.com\/products\/understanding-the-i-ching-the-wilhelm-lectures-on-the-book-of-changes-paperback","provider":"Infinity Light","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
