عنوان اصلی:
The Classic of Changes: A New Translation of the I Ching as Interpreted by Wang Bi(226–249 CE)
کلاسیک تغییرات: ترجمهای تازه از ای جینگ با تفسیر وانگ بی
وانگ بی (۲۲۶–۲۴۹ م.) با وجود عمر کوتاه خود (حدود ۲۳-۲۴ سال)، یکی از اثرگذارترین متفکران تاریخ چین به شمار میآید. او از برجستهترین نمایندگان جریان فکری شوانشوئه («حکمت رازآمیز» یا «فلسفهی ژرف») بود؛ جریانی که در پی بازخوانی میراث کنفوسیوسی و دائویی در قالبی فلسفی و متافیزیکی برآمد. شرحهای او بر دائو ده جینگ و ای جینگ از تأثیرگذارترین آثار تفسیری در سراسر سنت فکری چین به شمار میروند و برای نزدیک به هزار سال تنها مرجع معتبر مطالعهی این دو متن بودهاند.
در مرکز اندیشهی وانگ بی مفهوم وو (無، نیستی، بیتعینی یا غیب مطلق) قرار دارد؛ اصلی که از نظر او سرچشمه و بنیاد همهی پدیدههای متعین است. او استدلال میکند که کثرت موجودات و دگرگونیهای جهان تنها بر پایهی امری نامتعین و فراتر از صورتها (بسیط محض، صمد، احد، برهمن) امکان ظهور مییابند. از این رو، ششخطیها و نمادهای ای جینگ در نظر او صرفاً ابزار پیشگویی نیستند، بلکه تجلیات گوناگون یک اصل بنیادین و یگانهاند که در پس همهی تحولات جهان حضور دارد.
تفسیر وانگ بی نقطهی عطفی در تاریخ ای جینگ به شمار میرود، زیرا پس از سدهها توجه را از کاربردهای پیشگویانهی کتاب به سوی معانی حقیقی و ساختار فلسفی و متافیزیکی آن معطوف کرد. نفوذ این خوانش چنان گسترده بود که نهتنها بر سنتهای بعدی کنفوسیوسی و دائویی، بلکه بر شکلگیری زبان فلسفی بودیسم در چین نیز تأثیر عمیقی گذاشت. از این رو، شرح او بر ای جینگ را میتوان یکی از مهمترین و ماندگارترین تفسیرهای فلسفی این اثر در سراسر تاریخ شرق آسیا دانست.

Sequence:
With a return, there is freedom from errancy. This is why Fu [Return, Hexagram 24] is followed by Wuwang [No Errancy].
THE HEXAGRAMS IN IRREGULAR ORDER
Wuwang [No Errancy] exposes one to calamity.

تفسیر کنفوسیوس
Being dynamic, it is strong. { W.B: Zhen signifies dynamism, and Qian signifies strength.3}
The hard and strong attains centrality [the Mean] and resonance. { W.B: This refers to Fifth Yang [in resonance with Second Yin].}
One here attains great prevalence through righteousness, as is the will of Heaven. { W.B: As “the hard and strong comes from without and becomes the ruler within,” the more the action, the greater the strength. “The hard and strong attains centrality [the Mean] and resonance”: awesomely hard and strong and squarely righteous, selfish desire plays no role here, so how could any errancy take place? With the suppression of the dao of errancy, the Dao of No Errancy is achieved, so what could happen here but great prevalence and fitting constancy? When “the hard and strong comes from without and becomes the ruler within,” the dao of weakness and wickedness, of course, vanishes. The more the action, the greater the strength, so the Dao of hardness and straightforwardness works smoothly. “The hard and strong attains centrality [the Mean] and resonance,” so virtue commensurate with Heaven shines forth. Thus “one here attains great prevalence through righteousness.” As this is the declared will of Heaven, how could one possibly disobey? How could one possibly fall into error? This is why “if one is not righteous, it would mean disaster, and it would not be fitting should he set out to do something.”}
“If one is not righteous, it would mean disaster, and it would not be fitting should he set out to do something”: If one were so to set out here in No Errancy, where, indeed, would he go? If one were not blessed by the will of Heaven, would he, indeed, accomplish anything? { W.B: If one is not righteous, it would mean disaster”: Here one wants to set out to accomplish something without having first tried to alter course and so follow the path of righteousness. Although he dwells at a moment when one must not conduct himself with errancy, he still is going to set out to accomplish something without having first found the path of righteousness—so where is he going to go? How could anyone not blessed by the will of Heaven ever accomplish anything!}

In the same way, the former kings brought about prosperity, for they nurtured things in accord with the seasons. { W.B: Mao [lushly growing, lush growth] here means “sheng” [prosperity]. Once all things no longer dare to behave with errancy, each of the myriad things can fulfill its nature to perfection. “They nurtured things in accord with the seasons,” and nothing can better bring about prosperity than this!}

1. Zhu Xi comments that Wuwang is written with the wang meaning “hope” or “expectation” in Sima Qian’s Shiji (Records of the grand historian) and says that the name of this hexagram might also mean “No Expectation” or “The Unexpected.” Other earlier commentators have noted this same fact—Ma Rong (79–166), Zheng Xuan (127–200), and Wang Su (195–256), for example. See Zhouyi zhezhong, 4: 9b, and the biography of Lord Chunshen (third century B.C.) in Shiji, 78: 2397. Kong Yingda glosses Wuwang as an absence or avoidance of zhawei xuwang “deceitful and false behavior” (Zhouyi zhengyi, 3: 21b), so with him it would mean “No Pretension” or “No Fakery.”
2. This and all subsequent text set off in this manner is commentary by Wang Bi. Zhu Xi suggests that Wuwang image is a transformation of Song image (Contention), Hexagram 6—i.e., Second Yang trading places with First Yin (a movement from the outside toward the inside), thereby transforming the lower trigram from Kan to Zhen. The first yang line is considered the ruler of the lower trigram.
3. Cf. section seven of Explaining the Trigrams: “Qian [Pure Yang] means strength and dynamism;…Zhen [Quake] means energizing.”
4. Zhen (Thunder, Quake) is the lower trigram, and Qian (Pure Yang) is the upper trigram.
5. Kong Yingda comments: “ ‘Thunder going on everywhere under Heaven’: Thunder is a terrifying sound, and here we have ‘thunder going on everywhere under Heaven.’ The thunder stirs up the myriad things, and, sober with fear, none dares engage in deceitful or false behavior. This is why the text says: ‘Thunder going on everywhere under Heaven: this constitutes the image of all things behaving with No Errancy.’ ” See Zhouyi zhengyi, 3: 22b.
6. Cf. Hexagram 2, Kun (Pure Yin), Third Yin, Commentary on the Words of the Text: “This is the Dao of Earth, the Dao of the wife, and the Dao of the minister. The Dao of Earth has one ‘make no claim for…success,’ but working on behalf of the other [Qian—Pure Yang, i.e., Heaven—husband, sovereign], ‘he should bring about a successful conclusion.’ ”
7. Cheng Yi interprets this line with its agricultural metaphors differently, in terms of “doing things in accordance with the principles involved,” “not making things happen before their time,” and “not trying to force things to happen as one wants them to happen,” and so he seems to understand the first part of Second Yin as: “One does not reap without first plowing, and one does not have a mature field without first clearing.” Zhu Xi interprets it differently again:
Here the compliant and obedient person finds himself in a central and correct position. He acts in accordance with the moment and is obedient to the principle involved, has freed his mind and heart of any selfish desires and expectations, so this is why there is this image of “not doing the plowing for the sake of the harvest, nor doing the clearing for the sake of having a mature field.” This means that one should not take purposeful action at the beginning of something nor have expectation at its end.
See Zhouyi zhtzhong, 4: 10a.
8. “Never for his own wealth” translates weifu. Although Wang Bi is silent here and Kong Yingda no help, both Cheng Yi and Zhu Xi interpret it this way, and I think Wang would have had no objection.
9. Lou Yulie, drawing largely on Kong Yingda’s subcommentary, interprets Third Yin and Wang’s commentary this way: “Here one does something on the order of taking an ox to start to plow up a new field, which is to initiate an activity and so, running up against the prohibition against it, has his plow ox tied up and led away—this is the calamity that this person suffers.” See Wang Bi ji jiaoshi, 1: 346 n. 12.
10. “Illness” that one does not bring on oneself should not be treated, for it is accidental or brought about by the processes of nature. One should, in effect, wait it out, and health will return of its own accord. The same is true for the true sovereign and his good government—as they are exemplified here; cf. Kong Yingda, Zhouyi zhengyi, 3: 24a. Cheng Yi makes the same point; see Zhouyi zhezhong, 4: 13b–14a.
هر لحظه که می کوشم در کار کنم تدبیر رنج از پی رنج آید زنجیر پی زنجیر. (منسوب به مولوی)
هر چه پیش آمد، آرام بمان و کار درست را انجام بده. (د.ف هوک)
زندگی فردی روی زمین باید با قوانین حاکم بر جهان هستی مطابقت داشته باشد. آرمانهای معنوی هر انسانی باید در راستای هماهنگی با حکمت الهی باشد. اگر ما به این(هماهنگی با راه و قوانین الهی زندگی) دست یابیم، آگاهی درونی ما به روی فهم تأثیرات ستارگان گشوده، و اسرار طبیعت برای بینش و برداشت روحانی ما(از زندگی) آشکار میشود. (پاراکلسوس)
پس شما باید کامل باشید، همانگونه که پدر آسمانی شما کامل است. (انجیل متی 48:5 - ترجمهی معاصر)
وو ونگ بسیار عجیب و غریب است و ترجمه نام آن آسان نیست. من از "معصومیت" یا "بیقصدی" استفاده کرده ام. پس از اندیشیدن بیشتر به آن، امروز وو ونگ را با اصطلاح "ناخودآگاه" ترجمه می کنم، با اینکه این عبارت تا حدودی بسیار مدرن به نظر میرسد... چیزی که ــ مثل طلاق ــ زندگی را از هم میپاشد وارد ناخودآگاه میشود و اثر عمیقی بر ما میگذارد. ... چون شوک در درون است (تندر در پایین) و نسبت به آن ناآگاه هستیم، نمی تواند مسیر خود را طی کند و در نتیجه باعث می شود چیزی غیر منتظره اتفاق بیفتد.... (ریچارد ویلهلم - سخنرانیهایی دربارهی ای جینگ)
