The Book of Changes, or Yi Jing or better know to the west as I Ching, is the oldest philosophical text extant in China. Its origins are lost in the mists of time, but scholars believe tha the basic compilation was done early in the Zhou Dynasty. Based on a system of divination using eight basic trigrams (group of solid and broken lines), permutations of 64 pairs of trigrams were worked out and over the ages pithy commentaries added. The Book of Changes purports to chart the movements and developments of all the phenomena in the universe.
