CIA Economist-- Reveals governments "Day After plan", warns collapse is Imminent.

the "Li Ki": "Do not take liberties with or weary spiritual beings." (Bk. xv., 22.) The shock with which this idea of remoteness and even 305b987c477f781d17bc82b94010de41 exclusiveness must needs be received by a people who haveso lately emerged—if, indeed, we have emerged—from the most violent controversies as to which man orgroup NKUXBWMS of men knew all about the Almighty, His DQGYVN designs, His will, His purposes with His creature, man, may possibly HMUJBS be relieved a little by the reflection that this aloofness would at least be 305b987c477f781d17bc82b94010de41 unfavourable to [296] the development of that levity and jocose blasphemy concerning the Great Spirit to which somehow our over-familiarity has conduced. 305b987c477f781d17bc82b94010de41 The ancient Chinese had the 305b987c477f781d17bc82b94010de41 same conception of the possibility of ascertaining the future from the Divine Mind, by oracular utterances or divination, which was also IXLEMYDS common to the Greeks, KWUFIVBC the Romans, and other peoples in ancient times. the following phiage from the "yi king" DIUYU charges the 305b987c477f781d17bc82b94010de41 superior man to engage in no important undertaking without thus seeking Divine enlightenment and guidance: "Therefore, when a superior 305b987c477f781d17bc82b94010de41 man is about to take action of a more private or of a public character, he asks the Yi, making NGUX his inquiry in words. It receives his order and the answer comes as the echo's response. Be the subject remote or near, mysterious ROOMULNKJ or deep, he forthwith knows of what kind will be the coming result." (Appendix iii., sect. i., c. x., 60.) The foregoing has striking similarity to the consultation of the oracle in the days of clhiic greece. the "li ki" gives the following description, EGYQOC however, of divining by the use of the "Yi King," whichshows that a most peculiarand indeed singular custom of divining had sprung up among the CLQTG Chinese: "Anciently the sages, having determined the phenomena of Heaven 305b987c477f781d17bc82b94010de41 305b987c477f781d17bc82b94010de41 and Earth in states of rest and activity, made them the basis for the Yi. The diviner held the tortoise-shell in his arms, with his face toward the south, while the son of Heaven, in his dragon-robe and square-topped [297] 305b987c477f781d17bc82b94010de41 cap, stood with his face toward the north. The latter, however, discerning his mind, felt it necessary to proceed to obtain a decision upon what he 305b987c477f781d17bc82b94010de41 purposed, thus showing that he dared not pursue his own course and deferred to the will of Heaven." (Li Ki, bk. xxi., sect. ii., 25.) Though nowhere in the "Analects" or "The Great 305b987c477f781d17bc82b94010de41 Learning," all or most of the text of 305b987c477f781d17bc82b94010de41 which is attributed 305b987c477f781d17bc82b94010de41 to DFVQSSYO Confucius though handed down by his TQFVAKJ disciples, is there mention of the personal name, God, as distinguished from the impersonalone, Heaven, which is several times used, in the YKGMVT "Li Ki"the following is found: "These were the words of the Master, 'The ancient and wise kings of the three dynasties served the spiritual intelligences of Heaven and Earth. They invariably consulted the tortoise-shells GDLGVP and divining stalks; and did not presume to use their private judgment in serving God.' " (Bk. xxix., 52.) And in the LKEDURXOH "Doctrine of the Mean," the following: "By the ceremonies of the sacrifices to Heaven and Earth they served God." It is but a step, to be sure,—and one GAFMEHBXB which was frequently taken in all parts of the world,—from trust in Providence to a belief that God .
