564 Theory of Knowledge and Methodology

Many of the things that began to proliferate in the 90s were later outlawed, such as: TV satellite dishes.

The earliest TV satellite dish is a radar-like thing, which is very vividly called "satellite pot" by the people. This kind of "satellite pot" is everywhere in rural areas, because the signal reception capacity of traditional antennas is too weak, and only a few units can be received when they come and go, and dozens or hundreds of units can be received after installing "satellite pots".

There are also a lot of "satellite pots" in the city, so you can put the pot on the balcony and debug it towards the south.

With the severe crackdown by the relevant departments, the "satellite pot" began to develop towards the "invisible satellite antenna". This evolved version is smaller in size, the diameter of the pot is only 30 centimeters, and it can be delivered to your door for two or three hundred yuan to install the package. Even, there is a kind of high-quality pot of thousands of yuan, with a special decoding service, technicians regularly come to decode, and you can watch overseas adult shame TV programs.

This kind of satellite receiving antenna was banned again and again, and it did not begin to die out on its own until the popularization of digital television, but it is still alive in rural and remote areas.

Mo Xiaodie is a 17-year-old girl who installed a satellite pot at home when she was in her second year of junior high school. From then on, the first thing I did after school was to go home and do my homework, and after finishing my homework, I stayed in front of the TV. Her favorite is el [V], a music channel that plays beautiful songs all day long, and she can meet the Four Heavenly Kings, Hulk, Zhang Xinzhe and other Hong Kong and Taiwan superstars every once in a while.

Gradually, Mo Xiaodie was no longer satisfied with music programs and celebrity gossip, and she began to pay attention to some more high-end cultural, political, and news programs.

Phoenix Satellite TV is naturally the first choice, where the hosts are dressed fashionably and foreign, and their views are bold and avant-garde, which are impossible to see on mainland TV stations.

"It's time to go to bed, we have class tomorrow!" Mom has urged several times.

Mo Xiaodie said: "Immediately, wait a minute, I'll go to bed after watching "Qiang Qiang Threesome". ”

"TV, TV, you know how to watch TV all day long, you'll be in your third year of high school next semester!" Mom was still chattering, and walked straight to the TV cabinet, as if to forcibly turn off the TV.

"Don't turn it off, I've invited Song Weiyang tonight!" Mo Xiaodie shouted.

My father, who had just returned to the house after taking a shower, suddenly stopped and asked, "Who?"

Mo Xiaodie said: "Song Weiyang, the richest man in China. Phoenix TV was making a show preview last week, and tonight's "Strong Threesome" has Song Weiyang!"

The father hurriedly ran to the sofa and sat down side by side with his daughter: "Don't turn off the TV yet, I'll take a look too, there aren't many programs on Song Weiyang." ”

My mother was speechless for a moment, and went back to sleep in her room in a huff.

The opening music passed quickly, and after the host Dou Wentao finished his opening remarks, the camera opened and two interview guests appeared.

"It's really Song Weiyang, and Ma Jiahui, both of them are so handsome!" Mo Xiaodie looked quite excited.

Dad muttered: "Song Weiyang is very handsome, Ma Jiahui is almost 40 years old, where can he be handsome?"

Mo Xiaodie said: "People call it stylish!"

In the program, Dou Wentao has already begun to introduce: "I am very pleased to invite Mr. Song Weiyang, the richest man in Chinese mainland, today. Jiahui, sitting with the richest man to record the show, does it feel a little different?"

"Yes, I feel like I'm sitting across from a mountain of gold. Ma Jiahui teased.

Dou Wentao turned sideways to Song Weiyang again, and said with a hippie smile: "Mr. Song, it was Liang Wendao who was chatting with Liang Wendao today, and he couldn't leave because he had something to do temporarily, so I called Jiahui here." You wouldn't mind, would you?"

Song Weiyang said: "It's okay, it's not as handsome as me anyway." ”

Dou Wentao said: "Jiahui was very handsome when he was young, recognized as a beautiful boy, he has a nickname called 'Tony Leung in the literary world'. ”

Song Weiyang said: "Tony Leung definitely wants to beat someone when he hears it. ”

"Hahahaha!"

Mo Xiaodie in front of the TV suddenly burst into laughter, her laughter is very low, and she likes the cold humor of high-end people.

The three of them were talking there for two or three minutes, and Dou Wentao suddenly said, "Mr. Song set up a Taurus Business School some time ago, what was your original intention?"

Song Weiyang said: "Two purposes. One is to provide a platform for mainland bosses to further their studies, and the other is to train more senior managers of enterprises. Among the students of the first phase of Taurus Business School, four executives from Xifeng Company and Shenzhou Technology have signed up. ”

Ma Jiahui suddenly interjected: "Aren't the courses of other universities good?"

Song Weiyang said: "It's different. Tsinghua University and Peking University, including Fudan University, where I once studied, held an MBA class several years ago, and there are also ordinary business administration majors. However, these are mainly theoretical knowledge, and are mainly based on Western translation textbooks, which are seriously detached from commercial practice. Taurus Business School is different, we pay equal attention to theory and practice, and some of the textbooks are compiled by ourselves, including many classic business cases in China. In addition, there are many practical courses every year, which take students directly to domestic companies. ”

"Kung fu must be sharpened in things, this is Wang Yangming's original words. Theory cannot be divorced from practice," Ma Jiahui said, "so Mr. Song is a believer in Wang Yangming?"

"Haha," Song Weiyang said with a smile, "You saw the motto of the Taurus Business School?"

Ma Jiahui said: "Wen Tao showed me, and now there seems to be a heated discussion on the mainland Internet. ”

Dou Wentao suddenly picked up a stack of printouts: "It's not so hot." There is a post in the Tianya forum that has set off a craze for Wang Yangming on the Internet. This netizen said in the article that there are many successful people in modern Asia, all of whom are Wang Yangming's followers. Let me read one of the passages: 'In 1905, the emperor held a banquet for the Japanese navy when the Japanese god of the Japanese army, Heihachiro Togo, led the inferiorly equipped Japanese fleet to defeat the Russian navy. In the midst of praise, Togo Heihachiro held up a waist card with seven words written on it: 'Bow your head and worship Yangming all your life'. ”

"Fake," Song Weiyang said, "this is a rumor fabricated by the Chinese people, and the rumor spread time is very close, just after the reform and opening up." ”

"Is it fake?" Dou Wentao was stunned.

Song Weiyang said: "Anyone who really studies Yangming Mind in depth should know that Togo Heihachiro has never said such a thing, at least there is no relevant record in the official literature and historical materials. I was impressed by another quote from Heihachiro Togo: If your sword is not long enough, take a step forward. ”

Ma Jiahui said: "However, during the Meiji Restoration, there were indeed many high-ranking military and political leaders who believed in Yangming Xinxue. ”

Song Weiyang nodded and said: "Yes, the principal Jiang of the Republic of China also engaged in a wave of Wang Yangming's god-making movement in the 30s, and I heard that his worship of Wang Yangming originated from his study abroad career in Japan." ”

Dou Wentao said: "It is said on the Internet that the motto of Jinniu Business School has completely exposed that Song Weiyang is a believer in Xinxue. Mr. Song, is that right?"

The recording studio of "Qiang Qiang Threesome" is very simple, there are no decorative items, just a table and three chairs, and three glasses of red wine on the table.

Song Weiyang picked up the red wine and tasted it, tilted his head and said: "Isn't the atmosphere of this conversation too serious, unlike your Dou Wentao's style, you haven't opened a yellow tone until now." ”

"Hahaha," Dou Wentao laughed, "I have to take care of the guests' emotions, I'm afraid that Mr. Song will not be comfortable." ”

Song Weiyang said: "Whatever you want, I'm here to talk to you, otherwise I'll go to Xu Da Beauty's "Celebrity Face-to-face" to record the show." ”

Ma Jiahui suddenly said: "Generally speaking, Wen Tao will only make a yellow statement to female guests. ”

"I'm sorry that my biological sex is affecting your improvisation. Song Weiyang said.

Dou Wentao immediately continued: "Why do you want to emphasize biological sex? My psychological gender is also very healthy, and I am not interested in men for the time being. So, let's talk about something serious, the motto of Taurus Business School is: general technique, control the situation, and the way, and there is a sentence behind it'The unity of knowledge and action is the foundation'. Can you elaborate on that?"

Song Weiyang said: "Tongshu, controlling the situation, and joining the Tao are actually not directly related to Yangming Xinxue, but come from Legalism. Han Feizi's core idea is actually the integration of technique, potential, and law, and the law here does not only refer to the law, but to the rules and systems. In the cultivation of entrepreneurs, I extended the 'law' to 'Tao', so there was the motto of Taurus Business School. ”

Ma Jiahui said: "So, this school motto is a combination of Legalist thought and Yangming Xinxue?"

"Yes, it's a collective. Song Weiyang nodded.

"Then I'm going to ask for advice," Dou Wentao said curiously, "In my impression, Legalism seems to be about the law, insisting on the rule of law, which corresponds to the rule of virtue at that time." ”

Song Weiyang said: "It is not to govern the country by virtue, but to govern the country with etiquette, and everything speaks of the word 'etiquette'." It is the etiquette of etiquette, not the principle of reason. It is divided into two factions, one is the Qi Law School, which advocates the simultaneous use of art, potential, law, and rituals, and the basic rituals and religions still need to be followed, while the corresponding Qin and Jin Fa schools abandon the rituals and only attach importance to art, potential, and law. Although there is only a word difference, it is thousands of miles apart. The Qi Fa faction retains the etiquette, which is equivalent to the law not being a doctor, and family affection is greater than the law, and it respects relatives and relatives. The Qin and Jin factions abandoned etiquette, which is equivalent to acting according to rules and laws, regardless of whether they are high or low, or whether they are close or intimate. ”

"The Son of Heaven is guilty of the same crime as the common people?" Dou Wentao said.

Song Weiyang corrected: "It is the nobles who break the law and the common people are guilty of the same crime, and the Son of Heaven and the princes and kings are not among them." Because all the Legalists are kneeling and licking the princes and kings, they are willing to be dogs for the princes and kings, and they are hunting dogs that specialize in biting the nobles. The Qin State was able to sweep away Liuhe, that is, there was a Legalist to lay the foundation and the Mo family to assist. ”

Ma Jiahui has some research on Yangming Xinxue, but he really doesn't know much about Legalism, so he chooses to shut up and listen.

If it is replaced by other guests, Dou Wentao will not let it play, after all, the time of the show is limited, and he will pull the topic back when he talks about it. But Song Weiyang is more difficult to invite, and the origin is very big, no matter how boring the content is, the audience will listen to it, Dou Wentao is happy to let him say more, and then edit it later, or cut it into upper and lower episodes and play it separately.

After talking for a while, Dou Wentao asked again: "The motto of Jinniu Business School says: The unity of knowledge and action is the foundation. Can I understand that Yang Ming Mind is the core of the school motto?"

"Yes," Song Weiyang said, "I admit that I admire Wang Yangming. ”

Dou Wentao was afraid of snubbing Ma Jiahui: "Jiahui has studied Wang Yangming, right?"

Ma Jiahui nodded and said: "Li Ao and I are old friends, Li Ao is a native of Wanwan, and the education he received since childhood is to regard Wang Yangming as a sage." I began to study psychology, and I was also influenced by Li Ao. I met Li Ao for the first time when I was 20 years old, and he invited me to eat steak in the restaurant. In the early 80's, it was a high treat to invite one person to eat steak, and I was in a very poor financial situation at the time, so I was very impressed with that meal. Li Ao said to me, 'Jiahui, you are still very young. It is not easy for you to stick to an ideal and take risks for it. Over the years, I have seen many people face reality and give up on their ideals, or run away from them. Only I, Li Ao, did not give up and continued to fight. In fact, this passage has a strong psychological characteristic, Wang Yangming has been determined since he was a child, and he has been sticking to his ideals all his life. ”

Dou Wentao said: "The first time I knew Wang Mingyang was the story of his grid bamboo in a textbook. Based on my understanding of the study of mind, Cheng Zhu Lixue's knowledge of things is to obtain reason from all things, while Wang Yangming discovered that the mind is reason in an epiphany, so he said, 'My nature is self-sufficient'. Wang Yangming's object has shifted from objective exploration to inner exploration. This was very commendable when Cheng Zhu Lixue was prevalent at that time. Because Cheng Zhu Lixue has fixed everything to death, what you should do, you must do it, and you can only understand it this way. And if Wang Yangming wants to break free from this shackle, he must find the answer from the heart. ”

"Yes," Ma Jiahui echoed, "it is not easy for Yangming Xinxue to break through the ideology of science at that time, and it is also a great inspiration for our contemporaries. ”

Dou Wentao said: "But I always feel that the study of mind is too obscure and general, and everyone's understanding is different. Two people who also believe in the study of the mind, their ideological systems or words and deeds may not be related. How did Mr. Song come to understand and practice the study of mind?"

Song Weiyang said with a smile: "First of all, I am not a professional scholar, what I say is just the words of a family, so don't come to me for a theory if you have different opinions." I think it's good to read "Biography" as a small story, don't take it too seriously, and some of the content may be made up by Wang Yangming's disciples. I study psychology, and I only know Wang Yangming's life experience, combined with his four last words. ”

Ma Jiahui immediately answered: "There is no goodness and no disgusting body, there are good and malicious movements." Knowing good and knowing evil is conscience, and doing evil for good is a thing. This is Wang Yangming's summary of the study of mind, which is already a bit like Buddhism, a very metaphysical philosophical thing. Moreover, it is particularly difficult to operate, and it requires people with very high understanding, perseverance, and wisdom to cultivate Yang Ming Xinxue. Ordinary people just talk about it casually, at most they regard this as a pursuit and a guideline, so many people practice the study of the mind into Zen Buddhism. ”

Dou Wentao concluded: "The starting point of mind is very low, but the apex is very high, easy to learn and difficult to understand. Moreover, when Wang Yangming was alive, he did not formulate any mental study system and cultivation methods, which led to a variety of things cultivated by the disciples of mental science, and they were divided into countless factions and quarreled endlessly for hundreds of years. ”

Song Weiyang said: "In fact, Wang Yangming's four sentences have already finished the essence. Positive recitation is the guideline, and reverse recitation is the practice step. ”

"Can you still read it backwards?" Dou Wentao said in surprise.

Ma Jiahui was also a little surprised, and began to think silently.

Song Weiyang said: "Correct thoughts: First, there is no distinction between good and evil in heavenly principles; second, people's consciousness leads to the emergence of good and evil; third, people should have a conscience and distinguish between good and evil; and fourth, with a conscience, we can guide action. This is the guiding principle of the study of mind. Reverse thoughts: first, through learning and doing things, for the sake of good and evil, it is for the sake of the object; second, through the study of the object, we can deepen the understanding of good and evil, which is to achieve conscience; third, to the conscience to the deep level, can turn evil into good, good and evil right and wrong can be transformed at will; fourth, to reach the ultimate state of no good and no evil, that is, the "Tao Te Ching" said that 'heaven and earth are not benevolent, and all things are used as dogs', which I understand as 'the way'. This is the practice of mind. ”

Ma Jiahui clapped his hands and praised: "This understanding is wonderful, I never thought that I could read it the other way around." ”

Song Weiyang said: "Reciting these four sentences in reverse, the mind is actually very easy to cultivate. If a person lives in the world, given his lack of knowledge, vision, experience, and ability, he will definitely do many wrong things. But as long as you continue to learn and make progress, you can comprehend knowledge, sum up experience, and improve your skills, which is Gewu. The knowledge of things is one, and at the same time as improving oneself, one can gain the true knowledge of all things, which is the knowledge of conscience. When the object and the knowledge are constantly condensed, we can turn evil into good, and finally reach the state of not liking things and not feeling sorry for ourselves. The four words of 'unity of knowledge and action' mean that these four sentences are unified and can be carried out at the same time, constantly improving their ideological realm and practical skills through learning and doing things, and using the constantly improving ideological realm and practical skills to guide learning and doing things. Whether it is doing business, being an official or being educated, these can be used, to put it bluntly, it is about how to be a person. Good and evil can also be understood as right and wrong, pros and cons, and the use of wisdom is in one mind. Therefore, in my opinion, the study of mind is not only the theory of knowledge, but also the methodology. The four sentences of mindfulness are the theory of knowledge, and the four sentences of backwards are the methodology. The difficulty of mind learning lies in persistence, and those who travel a hundred miles are half ninety. ”

No, that's the end of this episode.

"Qiang Qiang Threesome" directly became "Hundred Lectures", and Phoenix Satellite TV decided to edit the program that Song Weiyang participated in recording into two episodes to broadcast, and there will be a second episode tomorrow.

Mo Xiaodie is the most high school student, and she seems to understand everything, but she only understands.

But her father was very touched, as a small cadre who got up from the grassroots level, this guy can understand what Song Weiyang said too well. But it's one thing to understand, it's another thing to do it yourself, ordinary people only need to shout "666", this thing is too difficult to operate.

Understanding, wisdom, and perseverance are indispensable.

And people with these three qualities, why should they learn anything about their minds, they can succeed by doing what they think.

It is not a saint who cultivates the mind, but a person who has his own independent thoughts and goals, and who makes unremitting efforts to achieve this and "unscrupulous means"!

Those who are proficient in mind are not nerds, each one is more cunning than the other, because their skills are cultivated in practice. Ordinary people are often so confused by the play that they don't even know how to be played to death in the end. Wang Yangming has a sentence that roughly means "the world is the cultivation field", and he had a student who was an official, saying that if he didn't come to study in the future, he would delay his daily work. Wang Yangming asked rhetorically: "Isn't work a kind of cultivation and learning?"
