What is the difference between Zhou Yi , I Ching and Yi Chuan ?

We often see bookshelves full of "I Ching", "Zhou Yi", and "Yi Chuan", so what is the difference between the three?

First of all, the reputation of "Zhou Yi" appeared the earliest, "Zhou Lichun Guan Dabu" is also known as "Zhou Yi", "the law of the three changes, one is called Lianshan, the second is Tibet, and the third is Zhou Yi". At that time, did the "Zhou Yi" mentioned in "Zhou Li" include "Ten Wings"? With my own strength, I can't verify it after all, and there is no clear statement in the academic circles about the study of the age when the "Zhou Li" was written.

The reputation of the Book of Changes first appeared in the early Han Dynasty, the early Han Dynasty set up a doctor of the Five Classics, and then began to be called the Book of Changes, in fact, the version at that time should also include the "Ten Wings", or just a part of it, which can be used as evidence by the excavation of the silk book "Zhou Yi", and the connotations of the two are basically similar. In addition, there is another theory that the "Book of Changes" only involves the hexagrams and epithets in the "Zhou Yi", and does not involve other aspects.

What about "Yi Chuan"? That is, we often call "Ten Wings", which is a work specially used by Confucius to explain "Zhou Yi", and the time of writing is roughly from the Warring States period to the early Han Dynasty. "Yi Chuan" is divided into several sections, namely the upper and lower parts of "Yi Chuan", the upper and lower parts of "Elephant Biography", the upper and lower parts of "Wenyan Chuan", "Dictionaries", and "Preface Hexagram Biography" and "Miscellaneous Hexagram Biography", etc., and this book is not written by Confucius alone, and the current version and "Zhou Yi" have been integrated and cannot be separated.

No.

The I Ching expounds the ancient classics of heaven and earth on the changes of all things in the world, and is a profound and profound dialectical philosophical book.

Including Lianshan, Guizang, Zhou Yi three Yi books, of which Lianshan and Gui Zang have been lost, only Zhou Yi exists in the world. The Book of Changes is known as the source of the first avenue of all scriptures, is the general program of traditional Chinese culture, contains simple and profound natural laws and harmonious dialectical thoughts, and is the crystallization of the wisdom of the Chinese nation for 5,000 years.

I believe that most people are not very unfamiliar with the eight characters "Qian, Kun, Xun, Zhen, Li, Kan, Dui, Gen", and in the long history, these eight characters have been integrated into the blood of the Chinese and have been used from birth to death. And the eight characters derived from these eight characters, Ji Ji, Kan Yu, etc. have always influenced the life of Chinese.

However, most people think that "Yi" and "Zhou Yi" are the same book, and never think about the connection and difference between them. It is no wonder that in the thousands of years of inheritance, the I Ching has changed hands many times, how many times it has been changed, and no one knows why it is as it is, and it is understandable to combine it into one.

In fact, it is very easy to distinguish the difference between the two, according to the "Hanshu Art and Literature Chronicle": "'I Ching 12 chapters. And he said:

Yi Tao is profound, people are more sage, and the world is three ancient. and Qin Liao's book, and it is easy to be a matter of divination, and it is passed on endlessly. From this passage, we can get a glimpse of one or two, and the three sages mentioned in it refer to Fuxi, King Wen, and Confucius respectively.

The Three Ancient Ages refer to the era in which the Three Saints lived, which coincides with the myths and legends. According to legend, the gossip was created by the Fuxi family Guanhe Tuluo book, which was used to seek good fortune and avoid evil for the people at that time; When King Wen was imprisoned by Emperor Xin in Jinli for eight years, he sorted out the gossip, and derived sixty-four trigrams from the gossip; In the end, Confucius finalized the book, and in 1977, in the oracle bone inscription of the Western Zhou Dynasty found in Fengming Village, Xiqi, there were also numbers combined into odd and even symbols, which shows that there were already gossip in the Western Zhou Dynasty.

Today's "Zhou Yi" is basically finalized by Confucius, and it is also one of the Confucian classics; At the same time, it is also a classic text of Taoism. And "Yi" was originally created by Fu Xi, and now it is no longer possible to test, and the gossip made by King Wen has added a lot to the gossip made by Fu Xi, so it can only be said that it is due to the birth of Fu Xi, which is in the same vein, but it is different from the creation of Fu Xi, so it is called "Zhou Yi". What Confucius finalized was only to sort out and analyze the "Zhou Yi" that had been handed down, and integrate most of the versions that had been circulated.

The root of it is always based on the creation of Fu Xi, and King Wen added to his "Zhou Yi", which includes hexagrams, hexagrams, and ten wings in the twelve articles of "Zhou Yi". These twelve articles have been influencing the Chinese and also play an important role in the inheritance of the Chinese, even in modern society today, in most rural areas still retain the custom of reading the eight characters and asking numerology. Confucianism regards the Book of Changes as one of the required readings, while Taoism is even more so, with a series of births and deaths, good fortune, good fortune, marriage, and so on.

It is also very difficult to interpret the book recorded in the "Yi", and there are many people who study this book now, but there are very few people who can master this book, and those who can understand this book are not obvious, and those who do not understand this book go to the temple and Taoist temple to set up stalls and cheat people out of money. There are many deep elaborations on the philosophy of life contained in this book, but few people have a discerning eye, and even more people see that some people read this book with disdain in the past, and this book is listed in feudal superstition and the like, but everyone knows that this book is broad and profound, beyond ordinary people can understand, and those who understand it dare not boast that they can understand this book.

It's the same book.

Zhou Yi is the Book of Changes, one of the Three Changes, is one of the traditional classics, according to legend, it is written by King Jichang of Zhou Wen, including two parts: "Sutra" and "Biography". The "Sutra" is mainly sixty-four hexagrams and three hundred and eighty-four hexagrams, and the hexagrams and hexagrams have their own explanations (hexagrams, hexagrams) for divination. The Biography contains seven kinds of texts that explain hexagrams and epigrams, with a total of 10 articles, collectively known as the Ten Wings.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, government schools began to gradually evolve into private schools. Easy to learn before and after, gradual development, hundreds of schools of learning, easy to learn is differentiated. Since Confucius praised Yi, "Zhou Yi" was regarded as a Confucian holy canon, the first of the six classics.
