I have used this book as a fundamental source in my Daoist/Shaolin self-cultivation and have gained immeasurable benefit from the elucidation and experience of Master Ni. This volume is a distillation of a life-long practice and many of the principles of the Daoist Canon. Any serious practitoner of Tai Ji Quan or Qi Gong should have this as a ready reference, since the principles of th I Ching are the fundamental source of these methods of cultivation. This is a gift from the Jade Realm!

I have been working with this book for some 2 years, studying the I Ching. While it is not an easy read- particularly the first 11 chapters, it providews an in-depth look at the roots of the I Ching and the development of the hexagrams and Chinese cosmology. The hexagrams themselves are lovingly examined with commentaries that provoke thought and self -inspection. It may not tell you whether to take the job or get married, but it will give you an insight into an aspect of a situation that you might not otherwise consider. Master Ni provides many wonderful stories in his commentaries that provide useful tools for living consciously and responsibly.

great book (!!!) - i've Many i-ching interpretations but this book is like "the i-ching bible" (lol) - simply a MUST have in your collection if you take i-ching divination and spiritual cultivation seriously...
also - i received this item on time and in excellent condition

Besides being way overpriced this book is inacurate and I feel there are much, much better books out there that cover this subject correctly.
