Wow, thanks for that. I guess a warning to improve is a good message, lest you suffer problems. And as scientific as Tarot cards, but maybe there are instances where they can be useful. The iChing seems to be a wonderful way to be introspective about your life, where you’v been, and where it may lead you. It’s a bit complicated though!
I can see how this developed into Fan-Tan, I guess 'man' corrupted this sacred ritual into a gambling game. Anybody know if the 'shaking the sticks' method is authentic/acceptable?
He said the three power. Heaven, Earth and “Man” I believe this to be very wrong for it is Heaven, Earth and the Supreme Being which is to represent thst in which is beyond Yin and Yang and beyond duality. Man is weak and vulnerable to imperfection and ignorance. He remains within duality as long as he exists within Ego. Such is the practice and teachings of the I Ching. I am not surprised that in University they would teach that it is “Man”
The trinity of heaven earth and man is a VERY old concept of Daoism/Chinese Philosophy. Truely when sages of the old - and lecturers who are a bit more recent - talk of the I Ching (again, chinese philosophy) they indeed mean this trinity of heaven earth and man. Actually this concept of heaven earth man predates Yin Yang philosophy, so in short: "man" is correct in this context. (Although I'm sure you can argue about what man means depending on context ;-) )
Wow. He is still at it! He was my professor at the University of Wisconsin back in 1975.
Brilliant! Best demonstration of the yarrow method I've seen! Thank you for putting this up. What a lovely gentleman
OMG I cannot believe that there are any free seats in this lecture hall!! This is wonderful, thank you so much!
Oh hell yes! Ive tried doing this on my own before. I gave up! Now…back to the yarrow fields in deep gratitude, Professor!

Divination has nothing to do with materialist science
Heaven, Earth and Human-being
man in the high castle reference
Lacking the conversion from 7,8,9 etc to lines ?
Is there some corrections if I'm left-handed? Thank you!
这是易经中国文化的根,许多人像这位教授一样研究了一辈子易经。
Atma Namaste Professor. Do you have a Academy please? I would like to study under you. Thank you

Do you always take the counting from the right hand pile? And also why the right hand side?
because Zhu Xi (朱熹),the great scholar of Yi Jing ( I Ching), said so.

By man he means human being. Human being is the divine being given chance an opportunity. Man has power in choice.

I like to think of Man as the bridge between Heaven and Earth, between the material and the intangible. It certainly fits as the third.
Yes thank you for sharing
The interpretation Prof Ho is describing comes from three kingdoms era scholar Wang Bi/Fusi. Very much a standard interpretation for generations.
