More about the book
The ancient book of advice and divination known as the I Ching (Book of Changes) has gained such popularity in both East and West that it hardly needs any introduction. Less well known are the traditional programs for studying the I Ching which were published in China about one thousand years ago. I Ching Mandalas is an example of this literature, which enables serious students of the classic to achieve a deeper understanding of its philosophy through the study of diagrams. These diagrams are tools for whole-brain learning that help the student to visualize patterns and interrelationships among the trigrams and hexagrams of the I Ching. This book is a perfect companion volume to enhance the use of any edition of the I Ching, but especially of Thomas Cleary's books The Taoist I Ching, The Buddhist I Ching, and I Ching: The Tao of Organization.Thomas Cleary, who holds a Ph.D. in East Asian languages and civilizations from Harvard University, is the translator of some twenty works in Buddhist, Taoist, and I Ching studies.
