Through Professor Chu’s two-day course, he has a higher understanding of " Yijing ". The specific gains are as follows:
The first day of the "Book of Changes" course, Professor Chu explained more from the high-level view of the universe of the "Book of Changes". Thinking from the high-dimensional culture and philosophy of the Book of Changes, let us establish a worldview and cosmic view with the thinking of the Book of Changes. The core of the eight characters of the Zhouyi: yin and yang, change, law, and balance. In fact, it is the law of the universe. Everything is united by the opposite of yin and yang, just like the Tai Chi diagram
, there is white in black, and there is black in white, tolerating each other and endlessly rebirth. "Those who live will die, those who gather will disperse, those who accumulate will be exhausted, those who stand will fall, and those who are high will fall" is an unchangeable law of the universe. But the bad luck comes, survival will occur in a desperate situation and bottoming out and rebounding is also the norm in life. Be calm and calm when encountering things, and have a mentality of "not being surprised by favors and disgraces, watching the flowers bloom and fall in front of the courtyard; staying and leaving without any intention, looking at the clouds rolling and unwinding outside the sky" to face everything in the world.
Teacher Chu said that the most important things are Qian hexagram, Kun hexagram, Fu hexagram , Tai hexagram , Qian hexagram , and Weiji hexagram. Next, I will first talk about my understanding of Qian Gua and Kun Gua after learning.
Qian hexagram: From the hidden dragon, don’t use it, to the seeing dragon in the field, to the flying dragon in the sky, and finally the arrogant dragon regrets it. This is also a person’s life process. In addition to personal efforts, there must be factors such as the right time and place, support from opportunities, luck, and destiny.
Facing Qian Gua, Confucius gives: Tianxingjian , a gentleman strives for self-improvement. Tell us that as long as we strive for self-improvement and strive for progress, we only ask about hard work and not the harvest, God will make his own arrangements. If you succeed, respect heaven and love others; if you fail, you will accept your fate and be calm.
Kun hexagram: One yin and one yang are the way. Qian hexagram is Yang, Kun hexagram is Yin, Qian hexagram should be proactive and enterprising when facing the outside, and Kun hexagram should be modest and cautious when facing the inside. The implementation plan given by Confucius is: the terrain is quiet, and a gentleman carries things with virtue. Tell us to be tolerant and accumulate good deeds, tolerant and greatness. To thicken our good deeds, don’t show it too sharply. You must be as humble and cautious as if you tie your pockets tightly to carry what we get. Otherwise, "the dragon fights in the wild, and its blood is mysterious and yellow", "the dragon fights in the wild, and its path is exhausted", the extreme of the yin turns to yang, and things will turn backwards, and things will come to the end, and when they reach the extreme, they will inevitably turn back. We must do " The family that accumulates good will have good fortune" and avoid "the family that accumulates bad will have bad fortune".
Qian hexagram is the only six lines among the six four hexagrams that are all auspicious and unfavorable. It also shows that we should be humble and humble and cautious in dealing with the world, and be auspicious and fulfilling.
The last hexagram of the sixty-four hexagrams is actually the Weiji hexagram. It’s time to end, not end, but it’s “not helping”, life and death, life and death. The end means there is no end, and there is no end again. This is really the universe view of the Great Prajna.
