I've done I Ching off and on for years. Got the edition with the intro by Carl Jung? If you like the I Ching, head for some Jungian reading.
The I Ching is a guide to me when I use it - a way of cutting through an issue - a complex - that I just can not get around. through, or over - even in meditation.
I'm often amazed at how effective it is.
Now, I can make the arguement that taking the time to focus on a problem, and then performing the I Ching ritual brings your problems into better focus. Then the guidance of the I Ching gives one a way of approaching a problem that helps to break the logjam.
Would another form of guidance have worked once the focus was there? Could be, but the I Ching doesn't charge $125 an hour!
