Sun Tzu’s Art of War, rich in wisdoms, inherited many of the ideas in the Book of Changes,
although it contains a few words from the ancient book--Junzheng and some ideas summarizing
the experiences of the wars during the Spring and Autumn Periods, The Book of Changes was
completed in early Western Zhou, while the Arts of War at the end of the Spring and Autumn
Periods, more than five hundred years apart. The former is a philosophical classic while the
latter a military masterpiece. The former has provided a theoretical basis for the latter.
孙子兵法很富有哲理性，蕴含着很多易经的思想，尽管它的很多语句是出自军正所写的古籍，其中的某些
思想汇集了春秋时期的经验。易经这本书出自西周早期，而孙子兵法出自春秋时期，间隔500多年。前者
是哲学著作，而后者是军事著作。前者给后者提供了理论基础。
The Book of Changes foretells good or ill luck in “yin” and “yang” while the Art of
War talks of winning the war by means of “qi” and “zheng”. They are shining brilliantly
at different times, but sharing the same dialectical thinking. The Book of Changes also
mentions concepts and principles of wars which can be found in Sun Tzu’s Arts of War, such
as the concept of waging a war by holding “Dao” first, the concept of subduing the enemy
without fighting, the concept of selecting trusted commanders, the concept of disrupting the
enemy’s strategy and alliances through diplomatic means, etc. In this sense, the Book of
Changes is the very source of Sun Tzu’s military thoughts. Just as people in ancient times
said that all the thoughts in the Arts of War can be found in the Book of Changes and they
share the same philosophy.
易经用”阴“和”阳“来预测好运气和坏运气，而孙子兵法用“奇"和"正" 来赢得一场战争。它们在它们
各自的时代都发挥了重要的作用，然而，它们都运用了辩证的思想。易经也提到了孙子兵法里所提到的战
争的概念和原则。例如：首先都赞同用执道的方式来迂回作战，都不赞同用直击的方式去征服敌人，都赞
同要选择值得信赖的领导，都赞同用外交的方法来摧毁敌人的战略联盟，等等。从这个角度上说，易经是
孙子兵法的理论思想来源。就像古时候的人所说过的，孙子兵法里的很多思想都能在易经理找到，它们都
是同样的哲学观点。 |
