This is very important!
Choosing books is like choosing a teacher, so choosing books is a very important thing. Here, I would like to recommend relevant books to everyone, so that you can avoid detours and become a master!
Important advice
Yi Xue and Buddhist scriptures are like mazes. After entering, you must learn how to get out. As Teacher Zi Qintian mentioned in "The Principles of Tai Chi Game", "Information Confrontation: Fate Calculation Gets Easier, Knowing Fate and Destiny", in fact, the most real thing is now. What people have to overcome is the impact of future information on the present! Many people understand a little bit and think they are invincible. However, if the information about the future is not 100% accurate, it will be misleading. What I fear the most is 30% true and 70% false. People will still be confused, hesitant, and miss something.
In addition, Yi said: When you gain something, you also lose something. It is true that in a sense, there is no absolute good, bad, good or evil in life, but it depends on your choice. Why do we need a special reminder? Because I have come into contact with many Yi friends in reality, once I learn Yi or practice some exercises, I fail to take into account other aspects, which causes some bad effects on the family and society. Ancient saying: A normal mind is the way! Don't label yourself as different from others, or you'll get nowhere. Understand that you are just a mortal, don't think that there is anything great about learning Yi. Dharma, partners, wealth, and land (simply speaking, methods, colleagues, financial resources, and environment) are the best guides for learning the exercises well, and in fact, they are also the best guides for learning the I Ching well. Don't expect to make a fortune by learning Yi, otherwise you will be on the road to no return. People who take this as their profession have their destiny. The Bhagavad Gita says: Treat success and failure, gains and losses equally. Worrying about gains and losses is not the mentality that people should have when learning Yi. Work hard, support your family, practice part-time, and live an ordinary life. This is the teaching and guidance my teacher gave me. I hope you can also get inspiration from it!
Finally, I would like to encourage everyone with one sentence: If the sky is strong, a gentleman will strive to strive for self-improvement; if the terrain is weak, a gentleman will carry out his duties with great virtue! It is most important to practice good deeds and refrain from doing evil!
1. Basic book
(1) Zhouyi original text annotation category:
If you don’t read the original text of Zhouyi, it is basically impossible to fully understand Zhouyi. , Tall buildings rise from the ground. The stronger the foundation, the greater the help for subsequent learning.
It is recommended to use the "Introduction to Zhouyi" written by Liu Dajun, president of the Chinese Yijing Association and professor of philosophy. Other "Zhouyi" published by larger publishing houses such as Shanghai Ancient Books Publishing House and Commercial Press are all comparable. Reliable.
The original text of "The Book of Changes" published by the Children's Classic Reading Center advocated by teacher Nan Huaijin can help everyone recognize and understand some difficult words.
(2) Integration of the essence of Zhouyi:
It should be said that currently only the book "Principles of Tai Chi Game" by Master Zi Qintian can achieve this. The whole book is There is no explanation of the hexagrams. But for a scholar who has studied Zhou Yi for decades, after reading this book, he should understand that it actually contains the deduction process of Zhou Yi. That is, even if you don’t understand Zhou Yi and have not read books related to Zhou Yi, you can’t Being able to cultivate the thoughts of the Book of Changes from it will provide a unified way of thinking for understanding all current cultures (metaphysics, Yi studies), and enhance the sixth sense of judgment. It can be said that the research significance of this book is very precious! It is recommended to study it at the introductory, advanced, and self-improvement stages.
2. Yi Li and Plum Blossom Six Yao Category
Without understanding of Yi Li, it is absolutely impossible to truly improve your arithmetic skills. Learning Yili will help you understand the purpose of your study.
(1) Yi Theory
Zhang Yansheng is a powerful figure in Yi Studies. Zhang Yansheng’s works (Introduction to Yi Studies, Application of Yi Studies, Yi Xiangyan , Yi and Harmony, Heart Yi, Qi Yi) are the first choice for those who study Yi Li. I believe that unfortunately not many can really understand it.
Yi Li recommends looking at some photocopies of ancient books published by Shanghai Ancient Books Publishing House and Zhonghua Book Company, which are authentic.
(2) Plum Blossoms
For ancient books on plum blossoms, you can read "Plum Blossoms Yishu", and for modern books, you can read "Tai Chi Game" by Zi Qintian from mainland China. "Principles Series", Teacher Huang Jian's "Yi Hun", Teacher Deng Haiyi's "Pretty Plum Blossom" series, Taiwan's Liang Xiangrun and Wang Shiwen are all recommended readings.
(3) Six Yao Category
There are many essences of Six Yao in ancient books, especially the seven classics "Yi Yin" and "Divination Zhengzong" , "Adding and Deleting Divination of Yi", "Supplement to Yi Lin", "Yi Mao", "Fire Pearl Forest", "Judging the Secret of Yi".
Recommended books: Chen Yuan's "Introduction to Zhouyi Forecasting", Shao Weihua's "Zhouyi Forecasting" or "Lecture Notes on Zhouyi Forecasting", Li Hongcheng's "Introduction to Six-Yao Forecasting Technology".
"Takashima Duanyi" written by a Japanese is a must-read book for overseas students studying Liuyao and Yili. Both the author and the translator are of high standard. .
Those who need to read books by modern people to improve their skills can read books by Li Hongcheng, Wang Huying, Qu Wei, Li Shunxiang, Lu Wenyi and others, all of which are best-selling varieties.
3. Four-pillar type
It is the horoscope, mainly for modern people. You can read "Introduction to Four-pillar Forecasting" by Chen Yuan and "Introduction to Four-pillar Forecasting Technology" by Li Hongcheng ", Li Juming's "Four Pillars of Fortune Telling" is a good version of the Four Pillars without typos. Currently, it is only available in traditional Chinese. People who are used to reading simplified characters may find it a little difficult to read. The biggest advantage of Li Juming's book is that it can cultivate interest.
The best for the intermediate level is Zhu Zuxia's "Exquisite Application of Numerology" (volumes 1 and 2). This book is recognized by thousands of people and is super popular, but the paper is not very good.
Advanced ones include Shao Weizhong's "Four Pillars Advanced Class Theory", Li Houqi's "Numerology Analysis", Qu Wei's "Twenty-One Theory", etc.
New school readers can read Li Hanchen’s works (new school readers are not recommended).
The ancient books include "Yuanhai Ziping", "Sanming Tonghui", "Qingtong Baojian", and "Numerology Exploration", and the book closer to modern theory is " "Zi Ping Zhen Interpretation" and "Drip Heavenly Essence".
Other best-selling authors include: Li Hongcheng, Li Shunxiang, Qu Wei, Li Shunxiang, Lu Wenyi, etc., which can improve your level. It is recommended to read more books by famous writers from Hong Kong and Taiwan, such as Liang Xiangrun, Song Yingcheng, Guanglian, Wu Huaiyun, etc.
4. Feng Shui
I want to say something before Feng Shui, because Feng Shui is relatively complicated, and those who have no foundation or do not want to delve into it should read Li Juming and Su Minfeng If you don't understand the basic concepts of Nine Palaces Flying Stars, Seven Stars Robbery, and City Gate Opening, it will be very troublesome. You can read Li Juming's "The First Book on Feng Shui" first, but before reading this, you need to understand some hexagrams, otherwise you won't be able to use basic things like the Eight Houses Method.
For classics, just read "The Complete Book of Geography" that Liu Bowen is waiting for: "The Complete Book of Geography" covers almost all the Feng Shui classics before the Ming Dynasty, which is relatively comprehensive. The disadvantage is that the font is small and the printing quality is slightly lacking.
There is also a book called "Geography, Heaven and Opportunities" which also integrates many classic ancient books.
I also recommend reading a few books: "Lecture Notes on Practical Feng Shui for Yangzhai". Written by Mr. Zhu Zuxia, it is currently the best book on Xuankong Fengshui and Yangzhai.
"Xuankong Flying Star Feng Shui" is Lin Guoxiong's book, which is easy to understand and also introduces the methods to cooperate with floor breaking Feng Shui.
"New Exploration of Ancient Yi Xuankong Xue" written by Mr. Hu Jingguo, a good book for getting started with Feng Shui.
Hu Jingguo also has an advanced book called "Xuan Kong Jing Jue". "Shen's Xuankong Xue" is a must-read for beginners to Feng Shui. Except for the explanation of the robbery of the Big Dipper, which is unclear, all others should be read carefully.
"Xuan Kong Geography Cong Tan" written by Mr. Zhong Yiming. This is a set of good books explaining the knowledge of Xuan Kong Feng Shui and commenting on the advantages of various schools of Xuan Kong Feng Shui. It also has explanations of Xuan Kong Feng Shui's secrets and practical examples. Very worth seeing and collecting.
In addition, regarding Luantou, Mr. Zhong Yiming's "Practical Geography of Luantou" is a good book on Luantou, with detailed introduction and rich pictures and texts. "Three Yuan and Nine Lucks - Notes on the Geographic Test of Xuan Kong" was also written by Mr. Zhong Yiming. It is a good book dedicated to explaining and analyzing the Three Yuan and Nine Lucks.
Watch "Crossing Yin and Yang" by Feng Huacheng.
For the Golden Lock and Jade Pass, just read "The Golden Lock and the Jade Pass" by Zhong Yiming.
Bazhaifa looks at other best-selling authors of "Bazhai Mirror".
You can choose from: Zhu Zuxia, Zhong Yiming, Wang Tingzhi, Lu Wenyi, etc. When learning Feng Shui, you should pay attention to the faction.
5. Similarities between palms and faces
If you want to learn more about palms and faces, read Li Juming’s "Learning to Read Faces".
To improve your level, you should read more books by Chen Dinglong, Xiao Xiang, and Sheng Shusheng;
In addition to modern people, ancient books are an important aspect to improve your level, especially books like Mai Shenxiang , Liuzhuang fortune-telling, Shuijing fortune-telling, Three-generation fortune-telling, etc., I recommend the first and second volumes of the "Complete Collection of Illustrated Phrographic Secrets", which collects various ancient fortune-telling books. There are many fine pieces of physiognomy among the people. Many of the physiognomy collected by the people have very practical value and can help you think about problems from another perspective.
6. Qi Men Dun Jia
The best ones are Zhang Zhichun, Wang Fenglin and Mo Xuesheng, and the entry point is Zhang Zhichun's "Magic Door" and its subsequent series , it’s best to see his full set. You must also read the books of his disciple Du Xinhui; Wang Fenglin has several training courses every year, and the information is relatively large and complex. He has several classics that you can read, including a bound volume, which is also very valuable. Pay attention to it .
7. Liurenlei
"The Universe in the Sleeve", and many other books on Liurenjin formula;
p>
8. Taiyi Divine Number
"Taiyi Comprehensive Solution" and "Taiyi Divine Number";
9. Iron Plate Divine Number
Read more about Ma Chuan;
10. Ziwei Dou Shu
There are too many introductory books.
(1) Sanhe Sect
Wang Tingzhi's "Elementary Lectures on Zishu Doushu", and others' "You can master Ziwei Doushu in one go", etc. To go to the advanced level, look at the Huixinzhaizhu, Ziyun, and Pan Ziyu series. It is generally recognized that Ziyun represents the highest level. Chen Xuetao's books are relatively popular, such as "Ziwei Mirror" and "Ziwei Revelation"; while Chen Shixing is particularly good at writing about marriage, and almost all of his works are about marriage.
(2) Flying Star School
Xu Zengsheng’s books are good, as well as the classic "Heluo Ziwei Dou Shu" and "Nine Thousand Flying Stars" by Fang Waieren.
11. Name Science
Generally, there is a five-frame naming method, but counting by strokes has nothing to do with the number of the Book of Changes, so it is generally There are many names that combine the eight characters. Best-selling varieties include Li Juming's "The Study of Changing Names and Luck", and advanced ones include Ma Ruicheng's complete series, Yi Yinyan's and Zhang Bo's works;
11. Disaster relief and fortune-changing spells
The one that is generally understood and is also quite interesting is "Moving Gods and Changing Generals". This is a collection and classic. Others such as "The Plowshare Witch Family" and "Four Liangs of Thousand Categories" are also quite popular. As for the talismans, they are even more magical, but it is useless to just read the talismans. They must be taught by a master. Taiwan has recently released a lot of CDs and tutorials about talismans. For example, Master Xuan Guang and Chen Longyu are both in junior high school and high school and can be watched and played. The Internet is also a public media. I can’t say too much. I suggest everyone watch it in the spirit of entertainment. .
