The complete or “real” human being is considered a balanced combination of two levels of experience; this is expressed in the Taoist slogan ”being beyond the world while living in the world.” Thus to maintain contact with the higher, vaster dimension of “celestial” consciousness while at the same time living effectively in the “earthly” domain is one meaning of blending or uniting Yin and Yang.

The first part of the book is the text of the I Ching proper with Liu's commentary. The second part is Liu's commentary on two additional sections - known as the Overall Images and the Mixed Hexagrams-added to the I Ching by earlier commentators, believed to be members of the original Confucian school. In total, the book illuminates the Taoist inner teachings as practiced in the School of Complete Reality.
