Features: Takashima's Interpretation of the I Ching is the life's work of Takashima Tonkyo, a master of the I Ching tradition during Japan's Meiji era, known for his unique practice of using divination to influence politics. For over a century, it has been translated into multiple languages, including English and Chinese, spreading worldwide. It revives the lost methods of I Ching divination and embodies the living spirit of the I Ching, making it a cornerstone of the I Ching divination tradition. The book's divination examples focus on major military and political events, international relations, and particularly Sino-Japanese relations. It accurately predicted the outcome of the First Sino-Japanese War (1894-1895), the terms of the post-war treaty, and even the sinking of China's Dingyuan battleship. Many of these divination examples were publicly published in newspapers in advance or presented to provincial ministers, the Prime Minister of Japan, and even the Emperor of Japan, significantly influencing Japan's domestic and foreign policies at the time. Both the author and his work are truly remarkable.
