Mme Zaratamara discovered the I Ching in 1968, a year after it was finally translated into English from the Wilhelm (German) translation. She was "Struck between the eyes" by it's immediacy and relevance to her situation at the time, and has consulted it ever since.
The I-Ching is the Great Chinese "Book of Changes" created by the Ancient Sages around 2205- 1766 BC, further edited by Confucious in the 5th century BC. Originally used as an Oracle to impart wisdom and advice to Kings and Rulers, it addresses itself to the "Superior Man" in all of us.
Although its use can be of a more personal nature, for this blog I will consult the Oracle about larger matters of importance in a Nation and a World in Flux.
