Chapter 18: The Rise and Fall of Fatigue
1. Why only human beings have objective idealistic thinking?
This is a tough topic, why only human beings have objective idealistic thinking, because objective idealistic thinking comes from the inner world of human beings, covering the way of thinking of high wisdom and love, and its formal existence is logical thinking, which is "the ability to observe, compare, analyze, synthesize, abstract, generalize, judge, and reason about things", and it is the use of human consciousness to make concepts, judgments, and judgments about things. The thinking mode of reasoning, the cognitive process of reflecting the nature and laws of things through consciousness, is the cornerstone of establishing the principled position of justice and fairness of the third party.
Objective idealistic thinking can only be attained by human beings with super-high intelligence.
All animals in the world have intuitive thinking, also called subjective thinking, and as long as there are species that can see the world with eyes, there must be intuitive thinking. Intuitive thinking ability is a must for the thinking ability of a species, and as long as there is a desire to survive, intuitive thinking ability is a must. Intuitive thinking is survival thinking, and animal predation is the first reflection of intuitive thinking.
In the process of predation, lower animals use intuitive thinking to search for prey, and then pass it to the sensory brain through intuitive thinking, and the brain decides whether to hunt prey, which is a thinking method that most animals have. However, due to the limitations of the intelligence of the lower animals, it is impossible to raise the ability of sensory thinking to the level of objective thinking at the level of thinking, why?
Because the lower animals cannot fully realize the whole process from experience, memory to practice due to the limitations of intelligence, and achieve the thinking process of observing, comparing, analyzing, synthesizing, abstracting, generalizing, judging and reasoning about things, and apply them to life practice through intelligent means.
This is precisely the fact that objective thinking comes from the idealistic world, which is the high-level manifestation of the mental activity of animals, and the specific situation is the third-party application ability. Such as evaluation thinking ability, decision-making and judgment ability, design professional ability, construction and implementation ability, scientific research ability, technological innovation ability, etc., these are all objective idealistic thinking.
The stronger the ability to think objectively and idealistically, the higher the wisdom. Therefore, if you have a stronger ability to think objectively and ideally, naturally your personnel ability will be extraordinary.
Due to the lack of objective idealistic thinking methods in ancient Chinese culture, ancient China only had scientific and technological capabilities, but not scientific research capabilities, only scientific technology, but no scientific taxonomy.
The scientific method is a way of thinking that must apply logical thinking, and without the ability to observe, compare, analyze, research, judge, reason, practice, and verify, it is impossible to make scientific logical judgments and form scientific logical thinking.
The greatest people in the world are people with strong ability to think objectively and logically, and the reason why these people are great is that they can correctly apply the principle of fairness and fairness, judge things objectively and fairly, make correct decisions, and handle personnel relations, government relations, legal relations, religious beliefs, and so on.
Therefore, if you do not have objective idealistic thinking, it is impossible for you to look at problems from an objective and fair standpoint and deal with all realities.
If you don't have objective idealism, you can't have the logical thinking that scientists and philosophers must have.
The philosophical principle comes from the triangular pyramidal conjecture, which confirms the fact that when matter is in the infinite pole, matter is in an open space, so philosophical thought will be open to the standard of openness above the binary thinking that when matter is at the finite pole, matter is in a closed space, with the ternary foundation as the foundation, it has opened a pluralistic and three-dimensional idealistic thinking, laying a solid ideological and cultural foundation for the final victory of capitalism to occupy the world capital market, which is the reason why philosophical thought extends to the world.
If you delve into the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, you can see that this amendment is an outstanding example of a constitutional bill established by Americans using objective idealistic thinking.
Philosophically speaking, man is a species of love and wisdom, because man has super high wisdom, so man has intuitive thinking, the third way of thinking other than sensory thinking, that is, objective idealistic thinking method.
Strictly speaking, objective thinking only exists in higher intelligent animals, so today's alpha dogs (robots) also have humanoid intelligence, but does alpha dogs have objective idealistic thinking? If having human-like intelligence should also be specific objective idealistic thinking, then does the human-like love of alpha dogs also have a humanoid structure? This is exactly what scientists and philosophers need to study, and this topic is extremely important to Chinese.
Because Chinese culture is influenced by Confucianism and science, for thousands of years, Chinese culture has always been in the dual structure of the material in a finite extreme, and the material enters the closed space, how to break through the space of dualistic thinking, occupy a pluralistic three-dimensional open thinking space, lead Chinese culture to open the door of world culture again, push Chinese culture to the top of world culture, become the world's mainstream culture, and let people all over the world accept Chinese culture, this is exactly what Chinese should do.
What is the purpose of our study of the writings of the ancients today? It is to gain an in-depth understanding of the cultural ideas of the ancients, and to pass on the culture of the ancients through learning, which is in line with the standard of inheriting experience through memory, and belongs to the scope of passing on wisdom through memory. Because you can see and not remember, you can't pass on experience, and you can't produce cultural heritage without experience to record it, which is what humans have and other species don't have.
If we get rid of the shackles of dualistic thinking with the idea of "the unity of man and nature", occupy the space of pluralistic and three-dimensional open thinking, and become the main voice of the world's harmony and unity, then the road to China's rejuvenation will truly begin.
2. Why human beings must have objective idealistic thinking
Objective idealistic thinking is the sublimation of human consciousness after we see the world through our eyes and feel the world through our brains, and we can personally experience the existence of objective idealistic consciousness from real life.
When we see an object, the first reaction is to directly look at the shape of the object, transmit information to the brain, search for the target in the brain's sensory memory, and determine whether there is a memory backup, that is, usually we see whether the object knows the object, what the object is, whether it is useful to ourselves, if it is useful, or whether it is harmful to ourselves, the memory will record the form, content, and nature of the object. If it is harmful to oneself, memory will also record the form, content, and nature of the object, so that we can recognize it in time when we see similar objects in the future, and this series of behaviors are completed by intuitive thinking and sensory thinking, and it is also a universal function of all living beings. It is also the natural condition that all species must have, and this series of behaviors are all innate attributes, which do not need to be cultivated, and all species can be applied sensitively in natural responses.
However, what all animals and plants do not possess is the intuitive conduction, the objective thinking function after sensory recognition.
The objective thinking function comes from intuitive conduction, the indirect function after sensory recognition, simply put, the animal screening, detection, and logical function, which is completed by wisdom, the higher the animal's intelligence, the more powerful this function is, on the contrary, the lower the animal's intelligence, the weaker this function, or even no. For example, human evaluation thinking ability, decision-making and judgment ability, design professional ability, construction and implementation ability, scientific research ability, technological innovation ability, etc., these abilities all need wisdom to complete, the higher the wisdom, the stronger these abilities.
This is the fundamental reason why only human beings can have objective idealistic thinking, and why human beings must have objective idealistic thinking.
Knowing what objective idealistic thinking is, let's go back and see if the I Ching has objective idealistic thinking. We know that the Book of Changes is an ancient Chinese cultural book, which is a prediction and analysis report based on the dualism of yin and yang to demonstrate and describe the laws of the operation of things, which classifies all things in heaven and earth, and calculates the rational laws of all things based on the theory of the five elements of the heavenly stem and the earthly branches, and finds the fixed number of annual rings in the material structure, and is even accurate enough to make more accurate predictions about the past life experience and future development of things.
So let's take a look at what the "Book of Changes" says, taking gossip as an example, the Qiangua says: "Tianxingjian, the gentleman is constantly striving for self-improvement." Kun hexagram: "The terrain is kun, and the gentleman carries things with virtue." Xun hexagram: "With the wind, the gentleman acts with deuteronomy". Zhen hexagram: "Gradually thunder and earthquake, the gentleman cultivates the province with fear". Hexagram: "Good is like water, and a gentleman starts by doing things." Separation hexagram: "Fire is the same person, and the gentleman distinguishes things by the same race." Hexagram: "Step Ze walk, the gentleman to distinguish the people's aspirations". Gen hexagram: "Gen Shan Qian, the gentleman is more than the few."
Let's talk about the Qiangua first, and the Qiangua hexagram says: "Tianxingjian, the gentleman is constantly striving for self-improvement." What does "Tianxingjian" mean? The vernacular is "walking on the road in broad daylight, and those who know the rules encourage themselves to be resolute and strong, and never stop." ”
I think that "Tianxingjian, a gentleman is constantly striving for self-improvement" is an educational and guiding dogmatic conclusion, which does not read the slightest objective idealist thinking, but is just an intuitive preaching.
Another example is the hexagram: "Step Ze walks, the gentleman distinguishes the people's peace and mind". This sentence is to walk into the swamp and trample through. People who understand the rules and are educated are self-disciplined, know the people's aspirations, and help the people. This is still a dogmatic rhetoric that teaches the world.
What Chinese culture lacks is the inability to recognize its own flaws, blind self-righteousness, and arrogance.
It is precisely because of the limitations of the I Ching culture that yin and yang are mixed, and the virtual and the real are integrated, so it is impossible to artificially separate the humanities, religion and politics, and comprehensively divide the relationship between ethics, political science, physics, logic, religion, psychology and so on like Western culture. Through the clear classification of cultures, young scholars can learn different levels of humanities encyclopedias, so that learners can retrieve their original memories.
3. Explain the Gu hexagram today
Zhou Yi's 18th hexagram _ Gu hexagram (山风蛊) _ Gen Shang Xun Xia
The original text of the Gu hexagram
Poison. Yuan Heng, Li Shi Dachuan. Three days first, three days later.
Gu: From the worm, from the dish. A dish is a type of rice utensil, clay pot, etc., that is used to hold rice. In ancient times, women put poisonous insects in the clay pot, starved them, let them kill each other, and got the last survivor to cure the Gu, in order to lure the man to obey her will, that is, Gu. Gu, the art of enchantment, the art of mother-to-daughter, the art of inheritance, the root of evil.
Xiang said: There is wind under the mountain, Gu. The gentleman cultivates virtue by invigorating the people.
Notes: Poisonous insects are placed in the tank and allowed to kill each other. First of all, it is smooth, and you can travel far away in the mountains and rivers. Three days first, three days later.
Poison. The gentleman cultivates virtue by invigorating the people. Note: Put poisonous insects in the tank and let them kill each other. People who understand the rules and are educated use them to inspire the people and cultivate morality. This is the concrete embodiment of China's dogmatic culture. If you analyze the meaning of this sentence in depth from an objective and fair standpoint, are you talking nonsense? "Putting poisonous insects in the tank and letting them kill each other in order to get the ultimate winner to bewitch men, this kind of behavior is instead a gentleman's virtue of reinvigorating the people and cultivating virtue", is this nonsense?
If traditional Chinese culture is just a dogma, just a moral standard, just a primitive rationality, it will definitely provoke the rebuttal of the defenders. But facts are facts after all, and truth is always truth, and blindly exaggerating oneself will only harm the next generation.
The sixth day of the first month
The sixth day of the first month. Godfather's Gu, there is a son, and there is no blame for the test. Great, the end of the day.
Xiang said: Godfather's Gu, meaning to take the test.

Ninety-two. Godmother's Gu is not chaste.
Xiang said: The Gu of the godmother has the middle way.
Note: The fisherman mother of the dry oar puts poisonous insects in the tank and lets them kill each other in order to win the final victory, but they cannot insist.
Ninety-three resignations
Ninety-three. Godfather's Gu, there are small regrets, no big blame.

June Fourth Speech
June Fourth. The Gu of Yu's father, go to see the stingy.
Xiang said: The Gu of Yu's father has not been obtained.
Yu, clothes are also spared. "Sayings". Miserly, hateful also. "Sayings".
Note: The well-dressed Tian father used poisonous insects in the jar and let them kill each other in order to win the final winner, and he hated each other very much.
Sixty-five remarks
Sixty-five. Godfather's Gu, with reputation.
Xiang said: Godfather's Gu, inherit virtue.
Note: The fisherman of the dry oar put poisonous insects in the tank and let them kill each other in order to win the final victory, talk about credibility, and gain fame.
On the nine resignations
On nine. It is not a prince, but a noble thing.
Xiang said: If you don't care about the prince, you can also do it.
Note: Do not do things for the princes, and publicize them in a high-profile manner.
Gu was a mysterious witchcraft in ancient times. It is mostly mastered and applied by women, and its purpose is to confuse each other. It is also understood as a sexual temptation, "Zuo Chuan: The First Year of Zhao Gong": "The Marquis of Jin sought medical treatment from Qin, and Uncle Qin made the doctor treat him, saying, the disease cannot be done, it is called a close Gu." "What is Gu? Yes, it is also born of obscenity and confusion. In "Zhou Yi", women confuse men, and the wind falls into the mountains. ”
It can be seen that Gu is by no means a good deed, and it is impossible to "Gu." The gentleman cultivates virtue by revitalizing the people", instructing the world.
Here are four sentences to sum up.
The gentleman cultivates virtue by invigorating the people,
Confucianism and Taoism were admonished.
Born of lust and confusion,
The woman's wind falling down the mountain is called Gu.
