Five years ago, I worked in an enterprise, and my boss attached great importance to culture. I am lucky to get a chance to study in the college once a month.
This study, let me and I forged an indissoluble bond.
Teacher Liao Jinxi of the college is an excellent lady who can be called Mr. in my heart. After the 2008 earthquake, she conducted psychological counseling in the disaster area. After that, she took root in Chengdu, Sichuan, founded her own private school, practiced her teaching philosophy, and founded Minglun Academy in Sichuan with her husband, Mr. Shi Wenzhong.
I was chatting with teacher Liao and several schoolmates that day, and she suddenly said to me, "I suggest you spend ten years learning the Book of Changes."
As for the Book of Changes, I only knew its name before, and I knew it was a treasure in China culture. I also thought about going to see it, but I didn't put it into action.
This time, teacher Liao's advice made me determined to study. As for why Mr. Liao gave such a suggestion, I don't think it is necessary to think about it. What is needed is that I must do it. There must be something I need or even like.
After learning this, the first thing to do when I go back is to buy a set of Zhouyi and 8 books online. The book is pirated, but the content is ok. When I got this set of books, I couldn't wait to open them and have a brief understanding of the structure of the books.
Because I haven't been exposed to such books, I don't know how to study in the future, so I plan to try to read them first and read them by basic reading.
My fate with the Book of Changes has been forged. I intend to take the Book of Changes as my companion for the rest of my life, meet it every day, and let the Book of Changes live in my heart.
