摘要
占筮是《周易》的有机组成部分。今本六十四卦卦序体现的则是由先天太极至两仪,再由乾坤交合产生万事万物的过程及规律。“大衍筮法”的操作过程是对这一宇宙生成演化过程的模拟,据此所获得的卦象可以展示事物的发展趋势,为人们应对不同情势提供相关的应对措施。“纳甲筮法”背后隐含的是中国古代的时空一体观与宇宙生成论,故《周易》之占筮原理乃基于其“取类比象”说及宇宙生成论。这一“取类比象”说及宇宙生成论被巧妙地转化为心性修养论,旨在实现“天人合一”之理想,这才是《周易》被尊为六经之首的根本原因。
Divination is an integral part of the Book of Changes.The sages,through observing the configurations of Heaven and examining patterns of Earth,ancient people classified the tendencies of the myriad things into eight trigrams and the order of the 64 hexagrams,which reveal the cosmological emergence,changes and transformations of the universe.The manipulation of the 50 yarrow stalks is a simulation of the cosmological production and evolution,thus the images and hexagrams resulted from this process can also demonstrate the tendency of things,and provide counter measures for the different future occasions.What is hidden behind the divinatory technique of Najia(attaching the stems and branches into hexagrams)is a cosmology.The theory of divination lies in this kind of cosmology and analogy of images,which are subtly transformed into the theory of self-cultivation in the Book of Changes so as to realize the unity of Heaven and Humanity.This is the very reason the Book of Changes is venerated as the first of the six Confucian classics.
