What is "timely"?
"Time" generally refers to the weather, refers to the universe, and refers to the external environment and conditions. Refers to the study and mastery of all things in the universe and the laws of nature, and can also be extended to the development of civilization and the progress of science and technology. Keep pace with the times. Stephen Hawking, a British scientist, wrote a best-selling book about cosmology called A Brief History of Time. Unfortunately, the School of Mathematics focused on the study of "time", but found another way, failing to develop China's mathematics, physics, chemistry and other sciences.
The "golden mean" refers to people's inner cultivation (knowledge) and coping strategies when something happens, that is, the "golden mean". "Shangshu Dayu Mo": "The human heart is only in danger, and the heart is only small; Only the essence is exclusive, let it be stunned. " "The Doctrine of the Mean": "The gentleman is also moderate, and the gentleman is in the middle." Confucianism (Yi Li School) emphasizes the study of "Zhong" and gradually ignores the importance of "Shi". As a result, a very important chapter in the Confucian classic "Da Xue" was lost. In the Song Dynasty, Zhu added: "The so-called knowledge lies in things, and words want to reach me, but poverty lies in things. Everything in the world is unreasonable, but because reason is inexhaustible, its knowledge is inexhaustible. Starting from the university, scholars must be everything in the world, and will benefit the poor because of their known principles, thus reaching the ultimate. As for the hard work for a long time, once suddenly enlightened, everything is fine and thick, and the use of the heart is unknown. This is called the case of things, and this is called knowing. " It basically conforms to the original intention of "University" and has scientific spirit, but it has not been advocated as it should. In the Ming Dynasty, Wang Yangming criticized Zhu's theory of "knowing and doing with things" and put forward such viewpoints as "mind is reason", "nothing outside the heart is unreasonable", denying objective existence and getting rid of the restriction of "time" completely, which violated the orthodoxy and ran counter to it. "Time is in the middle" and "Time is in the middle" are prerequisites. After the Ming and Qing Dynasties, China did not develop science and technology comparable to that of the western powers, and fell behind the times, so it would be beaten if it fell behind.
The complete concept of "being in time" first appeared in Meng Xun: "Meng, Heng and Heng are also in time." This is also the only time in the whole Book of Changes. Why the first and only appearance of "Shi Zhong" in the divination of "Meng" in the Book of Changes is very interesting, which can expand our understanding of the meaning of "Shi" and "Zhong". The divination of "Meng" not only shows the ignorance of things at the beginning of creation, but also implies that education should be started from an early age. It is through constant exploration, accumulation of knowledge, passing on from generation to generation, learning and growth that human beings gradually get out of ignorance and enter civilization.
Hanging in the wind! We are required to attach importance to both "time" and "middle", which are equally important. We should actively adapt to the development of the times, promote social progress and keep pace with the times; We should constantly strengthen our self-cultivation, correctly understand our own situation, seize the opportunity, adopt a strategy that conforms to the "golden mean" and be brave in making progress.
The essence of the book of changes reveals: Heaven respects the earth, and Gan Kun is certain. Humble and high, with Chen, high and low. The work is quiet and constant, but it is hard and soft.
Birds of a feather flock together, birds of a feather flock together, birds of a feather flock together. Square transitivity refers to everything in the world, that is, things. There are similarities and differences in objective things, and there are similarities and differences. This is an inviolable law. It is a natural law to get together when we should get together. If we violate the laws that everything in heaven and earth is the same but different, different but different, together but different, and divided but different, it is against the laws of nature. In other words, it is like a natural image, which forms underground and sees changes.
The Book of Changes evolved from eight characters (eight diagrams) in chaos. There seems to be regularity and irregularity in use. It is said to be irregular, but it is actually regular. With its use, it has become sixty-four hexagrams. For thousands of years, scholars have different opinions, and it is difficult to get a unified theory. The Book of Changes is like a loose sand. If you pile sand on a plate, it looks like a sand mountain. When the sand was torn apart, it dispersed, lost its shape and stood alone.
I ching can be said to be either philosophy or metaphysics, which is changeable. Therefore, to truly grasp its central idea, future generations need to study and discuss it.
The core idea of Yijing is the basic law of binary system, that is, one yin and one yang is the Tao, the Tao is easy, and everything in the universe is the unity of opposites; Its main principles are: opposition of Yin and Yang, interaction of Yin and Yang, superposition of Yin and Yang, and unification of Yin and Yang. The core ideological value of the Book of Changes lies in the concise and objective analysis of astronomical geography and cosmic life by using images, numbers and theories, which endows scholars with infinite intelligent life.
In order to analyze the basic principle of the Book of Changes, let's take photons as an example. For a photon, it consists of a positive matter gene and a negative matter gene. One yin and one yang is the embodiment of extreme automation of matter, and photons are the beginning of complete automation of the universe! Photons are low-level creatures that can replicate themselves. Photons contain the most basic binary principles of computer programs. If the positive matter gene is represented by 1 and the negative matter gene is represented by 0, then light can be represented by10101010 ... So particle properties are the essence of photons, and fluctuations are the appearance of photon motion, because no matter what, When light is blocked by most matter atoms, it will be captured, slowed down and changed direction. Since particle nature is the essence of light, moving photons must have energy and photons also have mass, but it is impossible to scientifically determine the mass of photons before the mass of matter genes is determined. When photons slow down in space and become spin particles, photons become neutrinos, that is, ghost particles! This is dark matter. The leaves of plants can reduce photons to positive and negative genomes, convert them into internal energy of plants and store them. So photons are the source of everything in the universe and the source of life.
Many people say that China's Yijing theory is the most absurd, and many people say it is superstition. This theory is actually the working principle of computer binary, the most basic law of cosmic automation and an extremely scientific theory. Using this theory, we can construct the spatial model of 64 basic particles of China people and demonstrate the superstring theory. The Eight Diagrams of the Book of Changes are the eight diagrams of three-dimensional geometry, and the eight, eight and sixty-four diagrams of the Book of Changes are the organic combination of real three-dimensional space and imaginary three-dimensional space, that is, the Book of Changes reveals the mystery of six-dimensional space, which is similar to the study of the relative motion of real three-dimensional space and imaginary three-dimensional space of gravity in Einstein's general theory of relativity.
If Einstein combined China's Yijing theory, his general theory of relativity would make a major breakthrough. (Author: Microgene Derived Photons)
The core ideological value of Yijing can be summarized in seven words: one yin and one yang is called Tao.
Tai Chi gives birth to two organs, which are yin and yang.
Yin and Yang are Yi's cosmology, Yi's epistemology and methodology that can easily inspire future generations.
If there is a day, there is a land, the sky is yang, the land is yin, and the heavens and the earth combine to create everything;
There are days and months, the sky is sunny, the ground is cloudy, and the sun and the moon alternate day and night;
There are men and women, men are yang and women are yin, and men and women have sex with girls;
Inside the molecule of matter, there are both positrons and negative electrons.
Good luck means bad luck, and good luck means bad luck. Unfortunately, it is not necessarily a curse, and happiness is not necessarily a blessing, because the unfortunate blessing depends on it, and the blessing is supported.
There are good people and bad people. Bad people are not necessarily worthless, and good people are not necessarily perfect.
Where there is unity, there is separation. This gathering is the beginning of the next separation, and this separation is the beginning of the next gathering.
With the epistemology of "one yin and one yang is the way", nothing will be made a fuss. With the methodology of "one yin and one yang is called Tao", we will not go to extremes.
The central idea of the Book of Changes is the word "Yi", that is, change. The Book of Changes is also called the Book of Changes. Some explanations of "Zhou" are, but in fact it means "cycle after cycle". There are several specific types of "Yi".
1. The Book of Changes of Yin and Yang reflects the laws of nature. From "stripping hexagrams" to "Kun hexagrams", all six hexagrams are negative, and the cathode is reduced to yang, and then to "restoring hexagrams", which is called "one yang resurrects". The yang gradually increases and the yin gradually declines.
At the beginning of "Gua", six hexagrams were yin, the rest were yin, and then all six hexagrams were yang. At the beginning of "Gua", six hexagrams were yin, that is, the sixth hexagram, and it ran to "Gua", completing the transformation from extreme yang to yin, so extreme yin to yang, and extreme yang to yin, completing the Zhouyi of Yin and Yang!
Second, divinatory symbols are interchangeable. Every image in the Book of Changes is not the only judgment, and there are "mutual suspension" and "change of heart". As we usually say, the change of thought comes from this. For example, "Ji Ji Gua" and "Wei Ji Gua" are mutually divinatory.
Mutual prediction is an intermediate process used to judge things after they are produced but before the results appear. Congenital factors and foundation are the main factors, which belong to internal factors; The intermediate process is mutual divination, which belongs to external cause; The final result or gain is a change of heart. Internal and external factors determine the final result of the matter.
In short, the Book of Changes is a changing law. As the basis of wizard divination, divination is not static, but "Yi" is the essence!
The central idea of the form of Yijing
(1) cycle: cycle after cycle, endless stream ("cycle after cycle" is not rigorous _ it is suspected that circular motion returns to dots. Round-the-clock _ motion is like radio wave transmission-point-small circle-big circle-big circle again ... endless, endless, infinite eternity). Zhou originated from the Book of Changes, also known as the Book of Changes.
② Easy: easy, difficult and simple. Simple, Tai Chi bears the material world, material civilization and spiritual civilization; Avenue to Jane, Jane road is also one. It's not easy. Tai Chi covers everything, and human wisdom can only know a little. Changers change a lot.
③ Word: the meaning and explanation of the 64 hexagrams and 384 hexagrams. Haiku, phase, cohesion.
The Central Idea of the Book of Changes
Dialectical philosophy: "One yin and one yang is the Tao, the living is easy", "Metaphysics is the Tao, and the physical is the device", "Image is dry, imitating Kun" and "Change into change, push into communication". This is the definition and induction of people, things, things and reason in the Book of Changes. Gankun's way, flexible and changeable way ... all the ways in the world belong to the "Tao" of the universe-the avenue; Avenue to Jane, one is Tao, and the other is Tai Chi. Simplicity of philosophy _ "One" is philosophy, "Taiji" is philosophy, and "Tao" is philosophy; Philosophy is not easy _ "Tao gives birth to one, life gives birth to two, life gives birth to three, and life gives birth to everything" ... endless; The change of philosophy is endless.
(2) Predictive philosophy: "The unforeseen events of Yin and Yang are called gods" _ People, events, things and reasons are hard to predict and mysterious. "Know its secret, know its life and death; Sense and then pass the world; Quite critical "_ to know the way of life and death, and to measure good or bad luck by telepathy; We know the changes of seasons, history, personnel and physics through fallen leaves ... So far, only a few people are Zhuge Liang and Liu Bowen.
③ Mathematical Philosophy: Days, Qi, Life, Life, Variables ...; There are natural principles, geography, humanistic principles, physics, natural principles and divination principles. Digital dots display nine, eight and six; Constants one, two, three; Hidden numbers four, five and seven (based on the Book of Changes). The number is extreme (nine is the limit) and the reason is infinite.
④ The philosophy of "Tao" in the Book of Changes: Taoist views on people, things, things and reason: "Tao gives birth to one", that is, Taiji; "life is two", and the second is yin and yang; "Two gives birth to three, three gives birth to everything", that is, three gives birth to people, things, things and reason.
The central idea of the Book of Changes? It is to use it to reconcile life, to clarify heaven with yin and yang, to clarify tunnels with rigidity and softness, and to clarify human nature with benevolence and righteousness. Asking divination points out the direction for everything, and everything should be implemented on time according to the laws of heaven and earth, so the prospect is bound to be pleasant, so that the behavior will not go against the sky, it will be vigorous, it will not hinder, it will be flexible, it will shine on everything without destroying everything, it will conform to heaven, and everything will be done according to the development of natural laws, so that everything will be smooth and smooth.
The core idea of the Book of Changes is change, which is about the laws of natural changes in the universe. Infinity begets Tai Chi, Tai Chi begets two instruments, two instruments begets four elephants, and four elephants play gossip. This is Fuxi innate gossip, and sixty-four hexagrams were formed the day after tomorrow. The Book of Changes, like the Bible, is a great work of ancient sages who observed geography during the day, astronomical phenomena at night and everything in the world, helped Yin and Yang infer personnel and recorded historical events. Its gossip skill of predicting everything in the universe by binary deduction is a must in the world. Since the book of changes came out, Lianshan, Zhouyi and Guizang have been formed, which are collectively called the three changes. Unfortunately, only Zhouyi has survived, and the other two books have been lost.
The Book of Changes contains rich philosophical thoughts. With the development of modern science, scientists have found that the eight diagrams in the Book of Changes are similar to modern computer binary 0 and 1. It is a way to explore and study the universe. The Book of Changes tells us that everything in the universe is constantly changing and everything has its destiny. Foot leads to life, increase leads to length, decrease leads to decline, and all die. The Book of Changes profoundly reveals the mystery of the movement and change of the universe. A magical and great vision was born. Avoid bad luck, turn bad luck into good luck, life depends on good or bad luck, there is no definite change between rich and poor. The simple dialectical thought of the Book of Changes has its scientific value.
Zhouyi is a kind of metaphysics with the development of human society. Yi-ology has a development vein: it is called Lianshan in summer, Guizang in Shang, and Zhouyi in Zhou.
Therefore, the Book of Changes we are seeing now is not like this at the beginning, but the result of unremitting improvement by people who have studied the Book of Changes in past dynasties. Of course, even in modern times, in fact, Zhouyi is still developing and has not been finalized, which is the same as some philosophical systems. It is an open system that needs to be constantly updated and changed with the development and change of human society.
The core value of Zhouyi has also been studied by Ren Shan, which is nothing more than the following aspects:
One is its philosophical value. Although Zhouyi is not a simple philosophy, its theory and method are full of philosophical speculation. It is an ancient philosophy to a great extent, and its system has been quite perfect through the development of past dynasties. For example, his theory of Yin and Yang is basically the same as the theory of contradiction in Marxist philosophy. For example, the theory of quantitative change and qualitative change in Marxist philosophy actually coincides with the theory of mutual change of yin and yang in Zhouyi. Therefore, after learning some theories of Zhouyi and Marxism, you will feel very simple and no longer feel how profound Marxist philosophy is. Our traditional culture is actually strong enough, but sometimes we don't pay enough attention to it, thinking that only foreign monks can recite scriptures, and some give up the foundation.
The second is its literary value. Some of the hexagrams in Zhouyi are actually beautiful literary works, which greatly promote our literary literacy. For example: Tian Xingjian, a gentleman strives for self-improvement; The capacity of the earth is limited, so a gentleman must constantly cultivate his own virtue to undertake the world. First of all, very good couplets will be sung endlessly and have far-reaching influence. As the first book of changes, many languages in literary works of past dynasties came from it. Because the Book of Changes has been constantly sorted out and perfected by sages such as Confucius, the hexagrams are very precise and profound, and even for modern people, they have high reference significance.
The third is its practical value. Many ideas in Zhouyi are of great practical value and have a very strong guiding significance to our lives. For example: the people are the country, and this is the country; I want to stand up, I want to get in touch with people; Don't do to others what you don't want them to do to you. From governing the country to being a man and doing things, it is almost all-encompassing. It can be said that Zhouyi is a grand treasure house left by the ancestors of the Chinese nation to our descendants. No wonder the top scientists in the United States have to sigh: If we study China's Zhouyi thoroughly, all the problems in the world will no longer be problems. It can be seen that the practical value is actually huge. As we all know, Americans established the Zhouyi Research Society in the last century and began to systematically study and apply China's Zhouyi. In addition, the construction of its new embassy in China adopted the geomantic principles derived from Zhouyi. But in contrast, we often regard it as superstition. At present, only a few folk people are engaged in the research and application of Zhouyi, which is how ignorant and boring the traditional culture is.
The fourth is its predictive value. When it comes to prediction, people often think it is superstition. I can't grasp it because I can't see or touch it. In fact, mankind has never given up the prediction of everything in the world. Zhouyi is just one of these predictions. According to the principle of modern mathematical model, the predictive value of Zhouyi is not difficult to understand: Zhouyi is also a mathematical model in essence. According to the theory of mathematical model, all the theories that can establish mathematical model in the world are scientific. Let's take a look at how the Zhouyi establishes a mathematical model: it first puts forward the eight diagrams theory, taking itself as the Taiji point and extending outward, which is divided into eight directions. Each direction has different attributes according to the running law of the sun and the moon, plus heaven and earth (that is, the up and down direction is also yin and yang), and one * * is ten directions. This forms a mathematical model, which simulates the influence of the operation of celestial bodies on the world we live in. According to this mathematical model, we can predict some development directions and qualitative and quantitative changes of human beings and individuals. So prediction is actually a very realistic science, not all we think is superstition.
The Book of Changes is the essence of China traditional culture. Known as the head of the group classics, the source of Taoism, the source of Chinese civilization, and China's ancient philosophical masterpiece. It is the condensation of the essence of China's classical philosophy and the crystallization of the wisdom of ancient sages.
The wisdom of the Book of Changes lasts forever. It has penetrated into every aspect of people's life in China, and had a far-reaching impact on politics, economy, culture and other fields. Confucius and Mencius, Laozi and Zhuangzi, Sun Tzu's Art of War, Huangdi's Neijing and other schools of thought contend, all of which are closely related to the Book of Changes.
The central idea of the Book of Changes is mainly manifested in the following aspects. First of all, the Book of Changes is a book that studies the natural laws of the universe. The creation and development of all things in the universe are in endless motion. There was heaven first, and then there was earth. Heaven and earth created everything, and human beings and everything were born. When people have ideas, they will have higher requirements. Over and over again, the arrangement order of the sixty-four hexagrams is gradually progressive from low level to high level according to the natural law of the development of things.
The law of the unity of opposites studied in the Book of Changes is the core idea of the theory of the unity of opposites of Yin and Yang. Under the interaction of yin and yang, movement produces everything, and life lies in movement. The philosophical principle of "one yin and one yang is called Tao" constitutes the basic principle of sixty-four hexagrams. Reveal that the change of yin and yang is the fundamental law of the universe.
The central idea of the Book of Changes is to study how to be a man and do things. "Tian Xingjian, the gentleman is constantly striving for self-improvement; The terrain is Kun, and the gentleman carries things with morality. " People should pursue something, have ideals, create something and do something. We should have noble moral sentiments and be eclectic. Be prepared for danger in times of peace and be brave in innovation. It is necessary to be good and rewarded, and to help the world. Everyone will build a great society with kindness and realize that the world is public.
The change of heaven, Tao and human nature mentioned in the Book of Changes is to determine the norms of life based on heaven and earth. This is the harmony between man and nature, and this is the harmony between man and nature. With the eternal and orderly spirit of the universe, we encourage life to be both rigid and elastic, and attach importance to harmony and the golden mean. Strive for self-cultivation, tolerance, balance, harmony and continuous development.
The Book of Changes is a Confucian classic, the first of the Six Classics and the core of the Confucian school. Confucius' comprehensive interpretation of Zhouyi absorbed all the essence of Zhouyi, and further improved and innovated it, forming the Confucian Book of Changes. After more than two thousand years of in-depth study of various schools, the Book of Changes keeps pace with the times with the progress of society. It has a new connotation and a new central idea.
