Actually it’s probably a bit clickbaity, because once we get into it, well, about twenty million people out there claim a relation to King Wen. Anyway, I very recently learned that the Wen 溫 Hakka clan descends from King Wen 周文王 (who we attribute the I Ching oracle to) and his son King Wu of Zhou 周武王, according to Chinese genealogical records.
Which is to say 100+ generations later, I’m writing the English translation and annotations of (maybe, possibly) my ancestor’s Great Work. I mean. Shrug. Smirk. How’s that for authority. 😉
