      Decontextualization and Re-framing Western interpretations systematically separate the *I Ching* from its roots in Confucian and Taoist thought. They remove it from its historical context of kingship, statecraft, and moral self-cultivation and place it into a completely different Western framework.
    • 何智涵6班 24天前
      Westerners' interpretations of I Ching recontextualize it within their intellectual landscapes. Leibniz ties it to binary math and Christian theology, Jung to unconscious psychology, and the 1960s counterculture to a pragmatic tool. These show diverse integration with Western scientific, religious, psychological and social traditions.

    In the 1960s counterculture, I Ching was adopted as a pragmatic tool for decision-making and a cultural symbol of alternative spirituality, reflecting a focus on practical use and symbolic meaning rather than traditional Chinese philosophical or divinatory contexts.
