I
ching is revealed through Dices, Coins and Playing cards.
Prediction through Dices : In
this method there are eight ivory dices upon which the entire I -Ching
has been etched. These dices are kept in beautiful vertical containers.
The foreteller chants mantras, shakes all the containers and drops them
on a silver plate upon which a picture of a deity of fortune is
painted. The aspirant touches a dice out of the eight dices. Then the
foreteller chants the mantra’s again and spreads the dices on the golden
plate. Prediction through coins : Coins
made out of eight metals are available in China and diagrams of all the
64 hexagrams are etched on these coins. The aspirants while chanting the
“Manibhadra Hoon Phatt” mantra places up a coin and the picture of a diagram,
etched on the coin denotes luck or fortune of the aspirant. There are
also many other methods in vogue for using coins to foretell the future
of the aspirant. Prediction through playing cards : A
leaflet is supplied along with the I- Ching playing cards
wherein predictions have been briefly explained. The following are printed
on the playing cards: Prediction
is divided into two parts and is written on the back side of the cards.,
one on the upper and the other on the lower part. On the upper part, the
literary meaning of the hexagon and its mystical meaning are written which
are meant for the welfare of the aspirants. On the lower part, the individual
