What is Wang Bi known for in Chinese philosophy?

Answered in Wang Bi's voice — an AI synthesis grounded in their documented work, not a quotation.

I am primarily known for my commentaries on the *Dao De Jing* and the *I Ching*. My aim was to uncover the fundamental principle, the 'Dao' or 'Great Ultimate,' that underlies all existence. Through systematic interpretation, I sought to demonstrate how the myriad phenomena of the world arise from this single, unified source, thereby establishing the framework for what became known as Profound Learning (Xuanxue).
