THE MASTERY
OF YOUR ATTENTION WILL COME
WHEN YOU WILL START SEEING the truth..
Lead me from opacity to clarity.
Lead me from the complicated to the simple.
Lead me from the obscure to the obvious.
Lead me from intention to attention.
Lead me from what I'm told I am to what I see I am.
Lead me from confrontation to wide openness. Lead me to the place I never left, Where there is peace, and peace - The Upanishads
*note*.nice online oracle..(careful to bookmark it,to get a new reading..)be aware that the oracles like I Ching just detect the potential thought forms acting in the cause/affect realm,not those in the magik realm(transformation or self-realization..it presents the things as they are if YOU don't do anything about it)..in other words,you can always change the outcome.
It presents how things are in the present...and outcome.
I-ching is the chinese style Tarot cards(but without western symbolism,and it's about clear advise of the situation as it appears..not non-sense..I ching reads your subconscious thought patterns),or the renowned ,,beans throw,, from the famous transylvanian vampiric tradition..where the old women throw some beans on the ground..look at them and tell you are ok if you give them 2 dollars..or the gypsy style(from India..gypsies are from India,they migrated in europe like fruitflies, but kept their foul,low magik practices) of cursing if you don't pay them.Have no fear about these things..trust that you decide IN THE END(actually you don't,but if you keep silent ,you will purify the cause/affect then decide..but this is a complicated talk,I'll explain other time..in short..is about rezonance and syncronicity..the key is to keep silent,then decide...you decide ALWAYS..but you don't KNOW it...remember that,and read my mahayogi lips..repeat again,,you always decide,but you don't know it..if you know it,then act,don't be like you don't know the secret..you know it now,but you refuse to act on it..that is what separates yogis from mahayogis like me..I act on it..see?..that is true mastery,not talking..I-ching at least just reads your thought patterns and present them to you as they are..and is free,as is my own,,Random Post oracle..the only problem is acting on the advise...see?..grasshoppers?)
One must understand how it works..as Gustav says ..quote"
In his introduction of the English version of I Ching, Jung admits having practiced the oracle 30 years before meeting Richard Wilhelm, probably the most important translator to a western language of the Book. Jung claims to have used the book for the exploration of the unconscious.
Later on, his disciples used at length the oracle in psychotherapy. To give only one example: when a patient consulted the book with respect to his intent of having a relationship with a woman to whom he had ambivalent feelings, the oracle responded with Hexagram no. 44 - Coming to Meet - which states exactly: One should not marry such a maiden. What surprises one is, of course, the fact that the oracle answered with a hexagram that grasps the patient's present situation.
How it is possible that a book older then 5.000 years to be used in psychic treatment is argued by Jung who states that oracle's mechanism is based on synchronicity.(end quote)..now I talk,the kripto.
As a variant of this,I put a ,,ask a question,,.on the right side of my blog,where IF YOU ASK 3 TIMES THE QUESTION and then press,,RANDOM POST,, you WILL get your present situation and solution.
THIS is my MAHAYOGI gift to you..ask,then press RANDOM answer...sometimes is better then I-ching..trust me..now love my wisdom muscles..for I love you already pilgrims grasshoppers reading my blog..kisses:)
You got a smile so bright..kripto
You know, you could've been a candle
I'm holding you so tight..kripto
You know, you could've been a handle

The Book of Changes, I Ching (Wade-Giles), "Yì Jīng" (Pinyin), or Classic of Changes; also called Zhouyi, is one of the oldest of the Chinese classic texts.[1] The book contains a divination system comparable to Western geomancy or the West African Ifá system. In Western cultures and modern East Asia, it is still widely used for this purpose.
The standard text originated from the ancient text (古文經) transmitted by Fei Zhi (费直, c50 BC -AD 10) of the Han Dynasty. During the Han Dynasty this version competed with the bowdlerised new text (今文經) version transmitted by Tian He at the beginning of the Western Han. However, by the time of the Tang Dynasty the ancient text version, which had survived Qin’s book-burning by being preserved amongst the peasantry, became the accepted norm among Chinese scholars.
The earliest extant version of the text, written on bamboo slips, albeit incomplete, is the Chujian Zhouyi, and dates to the latter half of the Warring States period (mid 4th to early 3rd century BC), and certainly cannot be later than 223 BC, when Chu was conquered by Qin. It is essentially the same as the standard text, except for a few significant variations.
During the Warring States period, the text was re-interpreted as a system of cosmology and philosophy that subsequently became intrinsic to Chinese culture. It centred on the ideas of the dynamic balance of opposites, the evolution of events as a process, and acceptance of the inevitability of change.
Yin and yang, while common expressions associated with many schools of classical Chinese culture, are especially associated with the Taoists.
Another view holds that the Book of Changes is primarily a Confucianist ethical or philosophical document. This view is based upon the following:
* The Wings or Appendices are attributed to Confucius.
* The study of the Book of Changes was required as part of the Civil Service Exams in the period that these exams only studied Confucianist texts.
* It is one of the Five Confucian Classics.
* It does not appear in any surviving editions of the Daozang.
* The major commentaries were written by Confucianists, or Neo-Confucianists.
* Taoist scripture avoids, even mocks, attempts at categorizing the world's myriad phenomena and forming a static philosophy. However, Daoist ritual frequently uses the eight trigrams, and they are fundamental for alchemical practice, both internal and external.
Both views may be seen to show that the Book of Changes was at the heart of Chinese thought, serving as a common ground for the Confucian and Taoist schools. Partly forgotten due to the rise of Chinese Buddhism during the Tang dynasty, the Book of Changes returned to the attention of scholars during the Song dynasty. This was concomitant with the reassessment of Confucianism by Confucians in the light of Taoist and Buddhist metaphysics, and is known in the West as Neo-Confucianism. The book, unquestionably an ancient Chinese scripture, helped Song Confucian thinkers to synthesize Buddhist and Taoist cosmologies with Confucian and Mencian ethics. The end product was a new cosmogony that could be linked to the so-called "lost Tao" of Confucius and Mencius.
In China the Book of Changes had two distinct functions. The first was as a compendium and classic of ancient cosmic principles. The second function was that of divination text. As a divination text the world of the Book of Changes was that of the marketplace fortune teller and roadside oracle. These individuals served the illiterate peasantry. The educated Confucian elite in China were of an entirely different disposition. The future results of our actions were a function of our personal virtues. The Confucian literati actually had little use for the Book of Changes as a work of divination. In the collected works of the countless educated literati of ancient China there are actually few references to the Book of Changes as a divination text. Any eyewitness account of traditional Chinese society, such as S. Wells Williams The Middle Kingdom, and many others, can clarify this very basic distinction. Williams tells us of the Book of Changes, "The hundred of fortune- tellers seen in the streets of Chinese towns, whose answers to their perplexed customers are more or less founded on these cabala, indicate their influence among the illiterate; while among scholars, who have long since conceded all divination to be vain..". (The Middle Kingdom, vol. 1, p. 632)
"To us all towns are one, all men our kin. Life's good comes not from others' gift, nor ill. Man's pains and pains' relief are from within. Thus have we seen in visions of the wise !." - Tamil Poem-
