Book of Changes Chiang Ching-kuo Ching Chinghai divination Dorgon hexagram Jiang Jing Guo journey Lao Zi learning Manchu Nan-ching Nanjing Qinghai religion T'ien-ching Tianjin Tientsin | 9780813927053 Fathoming the cosmos and ordering the world; the Yijing (I ching, or classic of changes) and its evolution in China.
