Text 569 Talking about how life forms change
"The teacher is famous, what kind of sect are you?" asked Su Zai with a smile.
Feng shui fortune-telling and word hexagrams, these are things that belong to the lower nine streams in ancient times, and their status is not very high, but they are extremely popular among the people, and they are also divided into many sects, the earliest is the congenital hexagram of Fuxi, the day after tomorrow Zhou Yi gossip of King Wen of the Zhou Dynasty, Mr. Guiguzi of the pre-Qin princes, and later the Three Kingdoms, and even Zhuge Liang, Guo Pu, Yuan Tiangang, Li Chunfeng, Shao Yong, etc., are all spread to be divine.
Su Zheng first learned this thing, which was very helpful to Kung Fu, and learned these mysteries from Master Ma, and later followed Master Luo to learn, and also obtained some essence, but he did not use it for sale, but used it for spiritual cultivation and tempering.
"The feng shui hexagrams of the past dynasties are all derived from the Book of Changes, which is the classic of orthodox Confucianism and the first of the group classics. Fortune telling, knowing the good and the bad, and figuring out the general trend of the world. Therefore, the orthodox Confucian scholars of the Li Dynasty all studied the Book of Changes for divination, but the real Confucians did not show off in front of people, and the other Jianghu warlocks were not authentic. As for the truth in the Book of Changes, it was used by the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism, and evolved into a variety of masters of the three religions and nine streams, and even some liars who deceived the people's money, in fact, I know that there are three masters in the domestic rivers and lakes, the so-called Nanmao, Beiluo, and Zhongma, which are known as the most powerful fortune-tellers, and many rich people are eager to do it. But in fact, it is just a name on the rivers and lakes, and it cannot be entered into the official stage, of course, it is undeniable that they have some real things. ”
Thorn Butterfly walked and talked, it seemed that she was the old man of Su Zheng, and she did not answer Su Zheng's question directly.
"What do you think of Bai Wenyong?" Su Zheng brought up such a person.
Bai Wenyong is a master of Chinese studies, walking between the two sides of the strait. The means are extremely clever, and even stimulated the energy of the two universities of Q University and B University plus more than a dozen surrounding universities, but unfortunately they were intercepted by Su Zheng and only half of them were obtained.
This person's strength is extremely strong, and his means are clever, and what is even more powerful is to use culture to package himself, making himself a master of Chinese studies, popular among the powerful and rich, and much more powerful than the three of Ma Luomao.
"Bai Wenyong, this person has some strength, and he is one of the people that my teacher looks up to. Thorn Butterfly said: "However, he is also a wild fox Zen, a river and lake road, not an official school since ancient times." ”
"Then what do you think is the official school of divination, divination and calculation, observation of heaven and earth. Su Zai asked.
"Yi Xueli, the truth of heaven and earth, in fact, the real official research is from the Northern Song Dynasty, is Shao Yong counted? Zhang Zai, Cheng Yi counted, and Zhu Xi counted?"
"Shao Yong is indeed a master of Yixue who founded the sect, but his vision also has limitations, and from the current point of view, there are still many flaws. "Su Zheng naturally understands this, he is an extremely knowledgeable person. I know the traditional culture very well.
"Since the Song Dynasty, Confucianism has been an orthodox school of thought, all the way to the end of the Qing Dynasty, although there are many people who attack it, but it has to be admitted. This is the culture of the upper class, the real Confucianists used to cultivate the self and cultivate the mind, in order to reach the realm of the sage, look up to the heavens and the earth, penetrate all things, even if it is Buddhism and Taoism, but also to move closer to the science, at most a slight change, do not dare to violate the core ideas. "In my opinion, through a series of practices of science, it is more effective than the practice of Buddhism and Taoism, and it is more able to reach the highest realm, otherwise it would be impossible to rule the Chinese academic school for so many years." What do you think?"
"There's some truth to that. Su Zheng remembered the seven characters of Minglun, the beginning of which the three words "Ding", "Jing" and "An" are all Confucian principles.
"Confucianism, starting with Confucius, to the Han Dynasty, was introduced and explained again by many scholars, adding a lot of spiritual principles to it. Later, after various dynasties, there were official forces to promote, and when they reached the Song Dynasty, it was even more extreme, the four books were re-annotated by Zhu Xi, and the Book of Changes was re-interpreted by a group of Dali scholars with new tricks. It has laid the orthodoxy for hundreds of years, and after it arrived, it was used by Zhu Yuanzhang for the imperial examination. Thorn Butterfly said: "However, I have to admit that after the eight strands, there is a lot of dross, but the real essence is actually hidden in the deepest words." Removing those dross, the real method of self-cultivation is far better than that of Buddhism and Taoism. ”
"Self-cultivation, Qi family, governing the country, and leveling the world, Confucianism does have a set of methods, facing the world, facing life and death, and facing the general trend of the country, it is indeed more than the other two. After all, it has always been the mainstream support of the government, and there are many talents. Su Zai said: "So, your faction is orthodox science divination?"
Thorn Butterfly has a cold temperament, never smiles, and doesn't have a lot of emotions, so I can't imagine that I can talk about these things with Su Zheng.
The two of them talked, and reached the top of the extremely tall building, which could indeed overlook the whole city.
Thorn Butterfly continued the topic just now: "Actually, the Confucian hope is the real hope, the real Confucian, can observe the general trend of the world, and when the world is chaotic, distinguish who is the true dragon and who has the king's spirit. Being able to regulate yin and yang, this is too much stronger than ordinary feng shui paths, burying ancestors to get rich, isn't it too much stronger?"
It seems that this is not a patent of Confucianism, but the set of Yin and Yang family, vertical and horizontal family. Su Zai said.
These are all integrated into the teachings of Confucianism. In fact, the backbone of Chinese culture is Confucianism, and my teacher is dedicated to sorting out and studying the new theories of Confucianism, combined with the moral understanding of modern people. Create a new theory to make the real Chinese culture continue. Even if it is the Bai Wenyong you are talking about, when you see him, you must respectfully perform the disciple salute. Don't dare to slack off. ”
"The hidden dragon and crouching tiger in B city are unfathomable and emerging. Su Zai said: "Actually, I have long looked at Qi B City and found many masters, some of whom are not kung fu masters, but their spiritual realm is close to saints, or they are more than ancient saints. ”
"When will I let you meet. Thorn Butterfly said: "I'm very curious about you, how did you grow up to such a point at such a young age?"
"I'm wrapping up. Su Zai said: "Many of my situations are accidents, but on the whole, there must be a reason in them, and they belong to the situation that can be replicated." My genes are better than those of ordinary people, but in fact, my congenital conditions are not as good as yours. But the day after tomorrow, I have already realized the ability to improve the root bones, and in this regard, I will far surpass you. ”
"You're talking about bones, genes. Thorn Butterfly said: "Some people are indeed talented, there are geniuses in all walks of life, I have to admit that some geniuses are self-taught, can achieve achievements in a short period of time, I have a junior brother is like this, he was ten years old, he can already make the college entrance examination paper full score, as long as it is reading, it is easy, self-study all kinds of courses, are handy, university courses, he will be completely mastered in a week." However, these are all innate skills brought out of the mother's womb, and they can't be learned. But you are different, you are powerful, and you are out of the realm of human beings. In a way, you're not human anymore. In fact, we have also mastered genetic technology, but it is still extremely unreliable and dangerous to modify genes through surgery and other means, and it is very easy to cause genetic imbalance. At present, my teacher believes that the safest way is to optimize one's genes through self-consciousness adjustment, that is, spiritual practice, but this optimization is extremely limited. Unable to break through the shackles of the innate root bone. My teacher often lamented that there is one of the most important shackles in human life, and this shackle binds the limits of human beings and cannot be broken. ”
"There is indeed such a shackle. Su Zai said: "This is also the fixation of life forms, just like how human beings exercise, it is impossible to grow wings to fly into the sky, because this is genetically determined, the genes of birds and human genes are essentially different, and the cultivation and exercise of human beings is only to optimize genes, not to change genes." To put it simply, practice is a chemical reaction, which does not change the shape of atoms, but just combines. In fact, the essence of genes is the countless chains of information that determine the original form of life. This information chain is very stable and not easy to break, and at the same time, it is also a kind of protection for us, such as the support form of a bridge. The force is evenly applied, and once one of these points is changed, the bridge collapses with a bang. In fact, it is extremely dangerous for human genetic technology to use various means to change this information chain. It's almost a lifeless situation. ”
But once this information chain is successfully changed, human beings will be free to control their own life forms, just like the seventy-two changes in ancient myths and legends. "Actually, in very ancient times, human beings were very dissatisfied with their own life forms, so they gave birth to dragons, people want to become dragons, can swim in the sea, fly above the nine heavens, dance with the sun, moon and stars, and live with heaven and earth." This life form is the most ideal form, but unfortunately, for thousands of years, human beings are still only in the stage of imagination. However, I now see from you and the Great Chief Typhon that there is hope for the realization of mankind's thousand-year-old dream!"
"What do you say?" Su Zheng still smiled.
"There should be some kind of loosening of your life form, although it is a little bit, but it is also completely different from all humans, gorillas and humans are as similar as 96.4 percent genetically, but the morphological difference is no longer the same species. Thorn Butterfly said.
