Results for "day selection"

Quick answer

Did the Lunheng completely deny day selection?

Not entirely. He kept the rule of the Book of Rites that inner affairs use soft days and outer affairs hard days, but read it as a way of sorting affairs, not of judging fortune. What he denied is the view that dates decide fortune, or that breaking a taboo will be punished by ghosts and spirits.
