Hello everyone, I am Zhuoya~
I think more than I would have such an idea, right?
When it comes to " Yijing " what flashed through my mind was about Feng Shui, divination, Tai Chi , Bagua and other mysterious and magical things.
Just open a book about the Book of Changes. The first thing that catches your eyes is the sixty-four hexagrams, which looks even more profound and unfathomable.
The hexagrams arranged and combined with two short horizontal lines, as well as the concise hexagram words, read like a heavenly book.
It is clear that every word is known, and when combined together, I just don’t understand what it is talking about.
|What has the Book of Changes experienced by itself?
How did this classic that runs through our entire Chinese civilization come about?
" Han Shu-Yi Wen Zhi " says that it " people are the three saints, and the three ancient are the three ancients".
- Ancient -Fuxi observed the way of heaven in nature, and opened the world with one stroke;
- Middle --Zhou Wenwang , introduced the way of heaven into the great way of life. Express the valuable experience accumulated in your life through the 64 hexagrams and yao words;
- recent ancient -- Kong Zi , completely transforming the 64 hexagrams of King Wen of Zhou and the principles of Yi into our human rules of conduct, aiming to teach us how to unite man and nature- ethics and moral .
Therefore, we can understand that the scriptures of the Book of Changes were written by King Wen of Zhou, which is why the Book of Changes is also called " Zhouyi ".
| Under what background did King Wen of Zhou write these scriptures? Why does the emblem have auspicious or unlucky meaning?
King Wen of Zhou was a prince who was enfeoffed to the west before overthrowing Shang Dynasty .
Compared with King Zhou of Shang , he did a lot of things that hurt the people.
People like Zhou Xibo more, and he was very popular with the people, so King Zhou of Shang was a little afraid of Zhou Xibo, so he arrested him for the sake of reason and locked him in [you].
has only two thoughts after being locked up:
- knows that he is in his life. In the style of King Zhou , he kills him as soon as he says, and he doesn't think of any friendship, especially in this interest.
- The valuable experience I have accumulated over a long period of time and experienced it personally. It would be a pity if I threw it away. If you sort it out, it may be useful to the world in the future. ( So he transferred the laws of nature to the laws of human affairs - ethics )
just writes the scriptures for the "Book of Changes" in 公司 . ([Grin] The originator of writing in prison was King Wen of Zhou~)
He expressed his accumulated experience in life through the sixty-four hexagrams.
hexagram has six lines, and each line gives it some words to explain it. Only then did the Book of Changes go from the wordless heavenly book to the existence of scriptures. It is also the reason why today's "Book of Changes" came into being.
| cares about the words and sentences.
- On the one hand, it is restricted by King Zhou, and it is difficult to speak freely. There is a little hiding, a little hidden, and a little difficult to express. Therefore, the hexagram has a certain degree of blankness.
- On the other hand, the people's wisdom was not yet opened, and the Shang Dynasty was a very superstitious era. It is almost impossible to break superstition in one go. Therefore, if you want the people to accept it, you have to express it in the way that the people accept it.
Therefore, the words and forms of divination are used to write the lines, including words such as good, bad, regret, stingy, and no blame.
thus putting a mysterious coat on Yijing.
| One yin and one yang are called Tao.
The Book of Changes was cast on a mysterious color, which is both a blessing and a misfortune.
Unfortunately, this classic that explains the universal laws of nature and society, and contains the great wisdom of Chinese civilization, is mistakenly considered to be just a knowledgeable mathematics book.
Fortunately, because he was mistakenly considered to be a divination book by the common people, he avoided the burning of Qin Shihuang and was able to keep it.
Han Dynasty After overthrowing Qin Dynasty , the mathematics and principles of the "Book of Changes" were separated. But in fact, they are integrated. In the end, it is all about teaching people how to unite man and nature - to unite their virtues with heaven and earth.
The laws of human beings are the same as those of nature, so 64 hexagrams are used to deduce all things in the world.
You must understand the truth in the end when reading the "Book of Changes". Imitate the celestial phenomena of nature and understand the truth.
The elephant that looks like Qian Gua is: the heaven moves vigorously, and a gentleman strives for self-improvement.
The most important thing in the sky is the clouds and rain. Clouds must move, rain must be applied, and the weather can continue to flow and can nurture everything. So it is called Tianxingjian . As a gentleman, you should learn from heaven and learn to improve yourself.
| said that after finally
, I became more and more moved by the Book of Changes, and I feel that the Book of Changes really runs through our entire Chinese culture, and is used daily without knowing it. The expression of some languages in life reveals the wisdom of the Book of Changes everywhere.
Recommended to everyone to read Zeng Shiqiang’s wisdom of the Book of Changes (there is a complete one on the small po site). Good luck is not bad.
