Ganyingjing 感應經

Ganyingjing 感應經 is book on the animate nature written by Chen Li 陳櫟 (1252-1334), courtesy name Shouweng 壽翁 or Huizhi 徽之, style Dingyu 定宇, from Huizhou 徽州, Anhui. Yet the bibliographical chapter in the dynastic history Songshi 宋史 attributes it to the Tang-period 唐 (618-907) mathematician Li Chunfeng 李淳風 (602-670). One theory is, therefore, that the commentary part of the text was written by Chen, while the core text is a product of the Tang period.

The book speaks about the mutual effects of conditions on living creatures. It is written in antithetic parallel prose, for instance, in the sentences ji gu sheng chong, fu cao wei ying 積穀生蟲，腐草為螢 "Stored grain breeds insects; decayed grass becomes fireflies." or hu zhi chong po, yan shi wu ji 虎知衝破，燕識戊己 "The tiger knows how to break through; the swallow recognises the wu and ji days (see calendar).". The commentary quotes from ancient literature to clarify the core statements.

The text is included in the series Shuofu 說郛.
