The Study of Inner Design

    Those who can discern the qualities of specific times and recognize changes are ready to apply the I Ching in shaping their time. Cheng Yi, 11th century C.E.

    Time is framed in phases, processes and episodes. Look at any series of events in your life, profession or business enterprise to see this. When you can see that everything has a begetting, becoming and begoning, that there is no forever after, only change; you are ready to work your intentions through the I Ching twelve branches process.

    You become aware of the temporal forms of from, through and to in all the myriad variations of the I Ching's inexhaustable wisdom. The capability to shape your reality occurs incrementally as you apply the wisdom through the twelve branches processes.

    Using the I Ching in guiding, advisory and oracular ways brings the realization that transformational material is always present in your own life. Awareness and recognition follows applying the I Ching to developing a mastery of your intentions and actions.

 Concluding Word

Deep in the Taoist I Ching discipline is a firing process of spiritual alchemy. The caldron and furnace are the hexagrams Heaven and Earth, symbolizing energy and spirit, firmness and flexibility. The medicines are the hexagrams Water and Fire, symbolizing real knowledge and conscious knowledge. 

Taking the Yang of Water and filling in the Yin of Fire, water and fire settle into each other; it happens naturally without forced effort. This is using yin to seek yang so that they complete, balance and settle each other.

Journeying in the Gardens of the Worlds

Dale Bruder is a life student of the Tao through the       I Ching. Since 1976 he has been applying the       I Ching to his self the way psychoanalysts and Zen teachers apply psycho- analysis or Zen to them- selves before presenting to others.

His studies of Taoist,  Buddhist and Confucian    I Ching texts towards  mastery of the 'hall of mirrors at the end of a gaint kaleidoscope'  continues today. His intel-lectual journey is to match the complexity of ordinary real life with total coherance of the three views of Chinese thought.

Life is cyclical and sequential; a series of events and episodes that advances or reverses goals and aspirations.

Making use of and learning from the experience is a key component of a well lived life. Using the Tao Time path changes the social, cultural, technological and economic push/pulls into a flow that is navigable.

Dale Bruder, a business intelligence consultant, invites you to play the infinite game.
