What is the essence of the Book of Changes?

The essence of the Book of Changes is neutralization, and the substantive connotation of neutralization can be summarized as the coordination of Yin and Yang, the combination of rigidity and softness, two-way complementarity and dynamic balance, which is the inherent vitality of the continuous development of things and is naturally derived from the basic principles of Yin and Yang philosophy as a whole.

The whole objective world is composed of two forces, Yin and Yang. It is a comprehensive large-scale system, with a dynamic process of popularization, endless life and constant change, and its internal dynamic mechanism is the coordination of yin and yang, which complement each other on the contrary. The ideological wisdom of the Book of Changes has penetrated into all aspects of people's lives in China, and its content is extremely rich, which has had a far-reaching impact on China's politics, economy, culture and other fields for thousands of years. Whether it is the way of Confucius and Mencius or the theory of Laozi and Zhuangzi, Sun Tzu's Art of War, Huangdi's Neijing and Shenlong Yijing, they are all closely related to Yijing.
