Associate Professor Karyn Lai: The Yijing (Book of Changes) and Chinese Philosophy

[@vfxforge]

no fancy stages / lighting / ted talk, just great information and presentation. Great speaker.

[@2martino3]

Fascinating lecture, the catch was impressive, but more impressive was the passion the information was presented, thank you!

[@anhumblemessengerofthelawo3858]

Eldest daughter I don't know about passion. That can't be the right word. Passion for the ancient Chinese and the Greeks was something to be gotten rid of. Passion robs reason. Passion blinds. The five colors make the eye blind, you see._

This was so great! Thanks so much for sharing! I got my PhD from KZbin University! 👩🏾‍🎓🤓📚

[@rootrhythm]

What a great presentation. I didn’t expect to watch the whole video, but it was so fascinating and explained so well that I listened to the whole thing.

Thank you Professor Karyn Lai for this very interesting and informative lecture. It was wonderful! I enjoyed it immensely and learned much from it. 31:13 - The Master Swordsman book. I love the master's way of teaching his young student the hard but important lesson of always being aware of your environment, or surroundings, that he may avoid attacks or getting hit. When he learned to retreat at the right time, only then was he permitted to handle the sword. Applied to martial art training, you learn how to stand first (stances), walk before you run (stepping), retreat before attack (running), and so on. Logically you would learn how to block an attack next, after learning how to run from it with dignity; but only because it is easier to learn blocking if you already know how to advance an attack, the principle of advancing (an attack) is taught next; and blocking attacks last, in terms of the order of the lessons. Of course being able to piece it all together in balanced and harmonious application is the crowning achievement of any martial training. 32:22 - The idea in Chinese martial arts of wearing out your opponent through properly timed and constructive retreating. That is the law or principle of "Retreat" taught in Hexagram 33: Wilhelm/Baynes English Translation www2.unipr.it/~deyoung/I_Ching_Wilhelm_Translation.html#33 1. "The power of the dark is ascending. The light retreats to security, so that the dark cannot encroach upon it. This retreat is a matter not of man's will but of natural law. Therefore in this case withdrawal is proper; it is the correct way to behave in order not to exhaust one's forces." 2. "Conditions are such that the hostile forces favored by the time are advancing. In this case retreat is the right course, and it is not to be confused with flight. Flight means saving oneself under any circumstances, whereas retreat is a sign of strength. We must be careful not to miss the right moment while we are in full possession of power and position."

[@ben_kaiser]

Incredible lecture. The points are so eloquently stated by the speaker.

[@rheadsouza8979]

Amazing perspective and lecture. Most amazing "Evidence" of the presence of the invisible we when You reached a point saying, this is the part I was disparaging.."and right in Cue the board fell. ro me t was how we are constantly in attunement and impacting the world

[@saintpaddy4494]

The story of the master swordsman sounds incredible. It really seems like avoiding this violent structure of everything really shows the duality. Thank you so much I have learned so much!

Ultimately there is no conflict trying to chill with a few sage in potomac, around 3 today.. yesterday we replenished foods, jing and waters; other parts of the world draw forces that would be blockages away and likewise bring forth forces that are conducive, not a conscious unity but the eventuality of the world. Everyone has said the right things the now is eternal 慈悲の瞑想

[@SoulCompassNumerology]

Which iChing book was he using?

[@名誉ために日本人天の祖先]

trying to chill with a few sage in potomac, around 3 today.. I cast the hexagram THE WELL as we chill, the rivers of the world carry pure water to all places in need the extension and irrigation of water, physically and metaphorically is the sustenance and betterment of the world today... it is abusive to not give water to drink before one does some deed, water always comes first, and clean pure water is best, America and Japan are great centers, peaceful in action now and nourishing, setting the means for pure water for all, these are times of peace

[@名誉ために日本人天の祖先]

potomac is 天, its not really one neighborhood of earthly people, its heavenly souls from all over the universe wandering about (rivers of zen that are never the same)... westerners never really notice, but for the east, its an example, never becoming a city, yet serving all good souls, the conceptual mind lets go of grasping, kansha tame ni nomi

[@Tubulous123]

Yes!!! Thank you!!! 1Nation4Life

[@MostafaDawa]

now we have an exam on this😶. although we are a medicine students. who else?

[@kuuvenpr]

Wow. Thanks!

[@shrimboy7492]

Very good talks. But I disagreed at 25:30... about cultivating relationship with family. In time of troubles, they all run away from u if it has something to do with money. That is a fact no matter how much cultivating u do. As for Sun Tzu treatise 30:30, the US understand this completely but it choose to wage war on lesser country like Iraq for profits to the US military industrial complex. It wouldn' dare attack Russia and China.

Thanks iching, I am grateful for Ajna Chakra. The sensitive intuitive, energy sensing part of ourselves leading us to ultimate truth. I see water .. (This is slightly distorted to fit potomac but only for sake of clarity, its not commercially corrupt or anything) Wow, (japanese brace) this girl here is really not prestigious enough for me..(japanese brace) [i look at it though and it is reflecting my heart - this is about friend relationships not romance] The two native american girls (I am intuiting they are this based on words alone) Actually are... Thanksgiving is coming These natives seem very well off.. they have a bit more than everyone else, going with them will certain be maintaining m y normal way in the long run This is a documentary a out early colonial 420 America [Iching shows me ditching 1 set of girls for a other] Vicky you aeris and lily stay on lol 名誉

[@名誉ために日本人天の祖先]

Iching says We now can get through Politeness and justness is no longer mistaken for weakness Although claires way is AWESOME it takes a zen mind and it needs D for amiability in everyday matters (Morgans league LEE) They are female Japans constitution I continue to buy weed for them, They continue to have the choju kanji technique ために地球 I havent allowed them inner circle But thats not offensive I am bowing to them sincerely but certain shrines are just not in place; They arent getting the best of me (thats by brace because this is not gaijin) [Divine Justice - matters of sagely rulers in unexpected places ---->] "Everyone is beautiful" crown chakra Japan is saying this girl is equally hot, but something is not right philosophically _____ 翡翠 的な (

Thank u for this. Just Started watching. Look at the anglosaxon Alphabet. Supposedly there are even different "Reguläre" Alphabets. Im Half German. According to Wikipedia theres a classic albhabet with three or so additional Letters? But yea, Look at the European Alphabet in terms of complexity and then Look at any asian albhabet in terms of complexity, sttucturing, etc. I Dont Know What White History says, but Western europeans, think the britisch and German. Actually middle europeans, Right? Their #code, Let Me Just call it that. Is so easy to decipher. Imagine Some ancient asian superpower Seeing, hearing or reading this language for the first time. On one of dem trade routed, etc. Dey #think. The German are. Super Power??? Or the goths, highlanders, Power Rangers or who ever Ruled at the time. History really is written by the winners. And or the most evil intelligent shaolin Monks, viking Leaders or Sultans. Even So Called primitive people. Me thinks. Wanna Look for the easiest #civilization to #conquer in #ageofempires? Study Their language. #asia #versus #europe #vs #africa #vs #southamerica #vs #northamerica vs #australia Yo, ima #download #aoe Now.
