• An Introduction to Chinese Cosmology In the latter half of the 20th century, America and Europe have taken a tremendous interest in Asian philosophy. The importation of Chinese and Chinese-influenced religions, literature, martial arts, alternative medicines, fortune-telling systems, and popular culture have exposed Westerners to a world-view radically different from that of the Greco-Roman and Judeo-Christian civilizations. Surprisingly, as familiar as some elements of Chinese mysticism have become to us (for example, the ubiquitous yin-yang symbol seen on every third keychain and bumper sticker in the U.S.A.), not much is generally known about the elaborate and profound system of thought behind them. This page is a presentation of some of our group's own findings about Chinese philosophy. We hope you enjoy reading about them!

• Introduction to the I Ching - Tony Crisp. The I Ching intrigued me, not so much because it is a very ancient book, the culmination of many great minds and a great culture, but because it was largely couched in symbols.

I wanted to see if I could put into clearer English what is usually said in rather poetic and indefinite prose.
