Since pure idealists put forward the theory of "absolute spirit", then pure materialists should also have their own theory of "absolute matter". Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

In fact, as early as more than 2,000 years ago, the Chinese put forward the ideological concept of "absolute matter", that is, the doctrine of "the unity of heaven and man" put forward by Confucius in his later years. In his later years, Confucius's thinking focused on the great harmony of the world, and theoretically sought to solve the reality of the division of the world, and tried to form the result of advocating the great harmony of the world through the thought of science. Therefore, Confucius came to the conclusion of "the unity of heaven and man" through the study of the Book of Changes, and the intention of the unity of heaven and man is the idea that heaven determines man, that is, the idea that everything happens in the established and must end in the established. That is to say, the law of development of things can be calculated through the image, there is a cyclical nature, when you find the peak torque point is equivalent to finding the regularity. For example, in the candlestick chart of stocks, when the stock price rises at its peak, the decline is an inevitable reality.

Therefore, the root of the Book of Changes is the study based on materialism, but there is no materialism and idealism in ancient China, but the essence is so.

There are many schools of thought derived from the writing of the Book of Changes, but no matter how you elaborate your thoughts, in the final analysis, it is still the central idea of the Book of Changes, the most representative of which are Confucius and Lao Tzu.

Confucius's thought is closely related to materialism no matter where it is viewed, and Confucius's core value is "the unity of heaven and man." So what is "the unity of heaven and man"? The so-called "heaven" is nature, natural laws, natural laws, natural sciences, and so on, and in layman's terms, what we see with our eyes, the world we see, and the external environment we see, that is, the material basis that materialists think. Needless to say, "man" is human beings themselves, the meaning of human beings is abstract, and the representation is very wide, such as human souls, thoughts, consciousness, and love are included in the word "human", and in general it is the concept of consciousness that idealists insist on. Then "heaven" and "man" together constitute the constituent elements of materialism, "heaven and man" is the exact term and meaning of materialism, when heaven and man contract together, it is the unity of matter and spirit, and it is also a high degree of unity of existence and thinking, which forms the necessary conditions of "absolute matter", and the material state in this case is unconditional; Accept reality without any restrictions, accept that it must exist and must be; Affirmatively believe in the absolute existence of "matter".

This fact must be unconditionally accepted in the state of "absolute matter", affirming the absolute reality of "matter" without any restrictions.

That is to say, under the condition of detachment from consciousness, "absolute matter" is the same as "absolute spirit", that is, when things are in the state of "absolute matter", it is also a high degree of unity between existence and thinking. It's just that "Absolute Spirit" is the manifestation of Consciousness before and matter behind, and "Absolute Matter" is the manifestation of Matter before and Consciousness behind. The difference between the two is a question of who comes first and who comes first.

For example, in the early stage of war, due to the influence of human factors, theoretically it falls into the scope of idealism, but once war breaks out, human will cannot control the situation of war, and in this state it belongs to the state of "absolute matter".

In the state that the will cannot control the behavior, it is the quantitative change process of "absolute matter", such as boxing match, the boxer is controlled by consciousness when punching, but when the fist is struck, it is no longer controlled by the spirit, because the spirit has no ability to control the behavior of the boxer, and the boxer is in the state of "absolute matter", when the boxer is in the "absolute substance" At this time, the boxer naturally has no concept of life and death, that is, he is not afraid of death and moves forward bravely.

Another example is when people's will is encouraged by a certain thought, "leading the people into his ideological kingdom, and then leading everyone into an empty world, under the influence of his own thoughts, the formation of the expansion of the consciousness of the whole people, resulting in a huge fantasy space that is divorced from reality, the empty atmosphere is warm and active, people muster up 10,000 times the courage to march towards a fantasy goal, unstoppable, there is no force to stop the development of this situation, and finally everyone falls into this fantasy world," at this time Because the human will is not controlled by self-consciousness, and the soul is in a stage of detachment from reality, this situation is the period when the "absolute spirit" and "absolute matter" are highly unified, and the "absolute spirit" and "absolute matter" form a consistency.

This is "absolute matter", "absolute spirit" is so complex, "absolute matter" is a concept, an absolute unity of affirmation and negation.

This is because materialists believe that the world is a material world, that there is no world without matter, that matter is the basis of all existence, that there is no existence without matter, that matter is an established material condition, and that there is only a difference between static and dynamic. For example, stones, land, houses, and so on are all static and motionless substances; for example, people, animals, and birds are all moving substances, so materialists believe that the world is a unified whole of matter, and there is only the difference between "opposition and unity", and there is the phenomenon of opposition and unity in matter, there are affirmation and negation, peace and war, existence and dissolution, confrontation and exchange, and there is a yin and yang contract, the blending of men and women, The process from confrontation to unification, such as turning enemies into friends, separating between friends and enemies, and so on, is because in a straight line, they can only be enemies, and unity is the relationship of friends, so dualists either hold a position of separating you from me or a strong opposing position in their hearts.

Materialists are a group of ideas that hold a monistic and dualistic position, and are in the initial stage of human understanding of the world, so materialists do not have such complex ideological concepts, and only move between the unity and dualism, that is, the monism and dualism in philosophical theory.

In addition to believing that the world is a unified whole of matter, materialists also believe that the world is the original existence of matter. In a word, the material world is a whole in a reciprocating cycle, which is monism.

Philosophical theories hold that on the basis of monism, there is a material foundation and a spiritual world, and the material foundation and the spiritual world are two totalities that exist in opposition to each other. For example, stones, stones have no soul, so stones exist independently in material conditions. Another example is a pig, the pig is a living body, and the pig is a spiritual world, then the pig is a whole that exists in unity between the material foundation and the spiritual world, which is dualism.

Monism singularly holds that the world is material, and dualism divides the spiritual world outside the material world.

Materialists look at the world from the height of monism and dualism, so materialists are very simple, only looking at problems between one and two, that is, only looking at affirmative and negative goals. Therefore, materialists have the concept of exploitation and oppression, the idea of contradiction and struggle, and attach importance to the relationship between repression and repression. Therefore, dualism is the cornerstone of collective politics and the source of centralized thinking.

An important factor here is that the dualist base point is the position of the two points and one line from point A to point B, here is the yin and yang world of traditional Chinese science, and it is also the opposing world of materialists, because at two points in a straight line, it is impossible to always be balanced and opposed, when one side deviates from the track, the other side will also deviate from the center of gravity, which tells us a truth, in addition to the existence of opposites, dualists roll together and unify existence, simply put, it is either an enemy or a friend, this is dualism that the development of things isThis is also the reason why the foundation of traditional Chinese science is rooted in "opposition and unity".

However, because Western philosophy introduces "objective existence" into its ideological theory, it will inevitably enter the world of triadism, so the foundation of Western philosophy is rooted in the foundation of "opposition and unity".

Therefore, all those who hold a dualist position must have a strong fighting spirit, and in the case of detachment from the will, when they are in the "absolute matter", the dualists are all heroes and heroes, who are not afraid of suffering and death. This is the best explanation for "absolute matter".

Anyone who holds the idea of Trinitarianism is an idealist who holds the position of objective existence, and when an idealist enters the state of "absolute spirit", he will also have the idea of being reborn after death.

In this way, we can understand that man is in a state of absolute unity between matter and will, that is, an "absolute spirit" body, an "absolute matter" body, and more of an "absolute matter" body, because at this time people's "consciousness" has been separated from the human body and cannot control their own behavior.

Western philosophers believe that the original structure of the world is composed of water, fire, air, and earth, and propose that the four elements make up the world, but the materialism of Westerners is not specific, very general, and vague. However, the theory of the five elements in traditional Chinese science is very specific and very clear.

The Five Elements Theory of Traditional Chinese Theory carefully divides five kinds of substances to form the elements of change in the material structure, namely, gold in the west, wood in the east, fire in the south, water in the north, and earth in the center.

According to the Chinese Five Elements Theory, gold, wood, water, fire and earth constitute the material conditions and form the origin of the world's materials, and there is a relationship between these five material origins, with the cycle of gold and wood, wood and earth, soil and water, water and fire, and fire and gold reciprocate the relationship of the original core of matter, and the relationship between gold and water, water and wood, wood and fire, fire and earth and gold cycle reciprocates the relationship of the unity of the original core of matter. The world is a world of five substances.

This is the worldview that the Chinese believe that the world is "tied to five".

The Chinese believe that the world begins in one, progresses to two, multiplies in three, reincarnation in four, harvest, fullness, and abundance are all in five, and five is the end of five substances in five.

"Junction in five" is not like "divided in three", "divided in three" is a conjectural trigonometric law, the junction point of the triangular pyramid cube is above a point, and the junction point of the pentagonal pyramid cube is also a point, but the pentagonal pyramid cube is more stable than the triangular pyramid cube. We know that the pyramid is calculated as the height of the base area x / 3, or the surface area x the radius of the inscribed circle / 3.

From this, we can know that when things develop to three, they are no longer the world of yin and yang, no longer the world of two points and one line, and they are out of the knowledge interface of the two-eyed world and enter the objective thinking interface of looking at the problem from three angles, so the third is the starting point of the division, and it is also the theoretical convergence point found by the idealists, because the three people look at the world, they must objectively see the reality of existence, and the three people must face each other with their hearts and evaluate each other with their consciousnessThis is the birthplace of idealistic thought, and idealists find the meeting point of mental activity through "objective consciousness", and find an ideological platform for idealism, which derives the theory of political separation of powers, Christian theological trinity and other idealistic ideological methods.

Although things develop to "five", although they do not depart from the knowledge structure of idealism, they still use the pyramid calculation formula to calculate the area of the pentagonal pyramid, but the development of things to "five" is more of a sublimation of the theoretical framework of dualism, attributed to the knowledge structure of materialists.

If you say that, you have to have a solid theoretical foundation in order to convince people of the usefulness of this principle. To find a reason from the starting point of mathematical principles, dualism and the "five conclusions" cannot be combined in any way. Because the mathematical principle of dualism is binary number theory, and the mathematical conversion method of the "five conclusions" is still the pyramid calculation formula for calculating triangular pyramids. We know that the fifth-to-last digit of the subtracted number was originally "1", but it lent to the fourth-to-last digit, so it ended up being "0", and the fifth-to-last digit of the subtraction was "1", so that the subtracted number needs to continue to borrow "1" (equivalent to "2") from its high position (the sixth to last digit), 2–1=1. The last digit of the subtracted number was originally "1", but it became "0" after being lent to the fifth to last place, and the subtraction does not have this digit, so the result is the corresponding digit value of the subtracted number, which is "0" here.

From this, we can conclude that among the numbers from zero to ten, the knowledge interface of the four numbers 0, 1, 5, and 10 is the quantitative interface of "absolute spirit and absolute matter", as well as the knowledge structure point. In these four points, we can see the high unity of material thinking and existence, and at the same time, it also indicates the rebirth of matter, because a little more is the point of submersion of matter, so here it is the base point of matter and the point of disappearance.

The four numbers 0, 1, 5, and 10 are applied to philosophical theories as the poles of "nothingness (spirit)" and the limit of "matter (existence)".

This is the principle that things can progress to "two" and "five". This is because in the case of "Junction in Five", the state of matter exists absolutely in terms of "absolute reason" and "absolute matter".

The fifth is the result of the five substances consummating the five, and the fifth is the result of the five pyramids helping and restraining each other, which can form a circular object and roll and develop. Five in turn represents five different elements. It boils down to personnel on behalf of the five human characters, people must not only have a resolute character, but also have an upright temperament, but also have a mellow intelligence, but also need fiery majesty, but also need the same earth-like tolerance, magnanimity.

Although the Five Elements Theory is not recognized by Westerners, in terms of the existing knowledge structure, the Five Elements Theory is one of the greatest cultural creations in the world today.

The Five Elements Theory of Shengke highly unifies the ideological policy of materialism and lays a solid foundation for the scientificity and rationality of materialist thought.

As far as the world's knowledge structure is concerned, the Five Elements Theory is undoubtedly the most perfect summary of the scientific nature of the existence of various elements of matter, and is the conceptual conclusion of cultural transmission of knowledge, and the Five Elements Theory is the most scientific summary of the modern scientific conclusion that the material structure is composed of a variety of elements.

The Chinese summarized the diversity of the material structure with the five elements of western gold, eastern wood, southern fire, northern water, and central earth, which shows the wisdom of the Chinese. Do not deny all the knowledge of the Chinese, simply verify the knowledge structure of the Chinese with the knowledge structure of the Westerners, and do not deny everything of the traditional Chinese culture just because the traditional Chinese thought has lost its metaphysical status.

The Five Elements Theory of Shengke is the metaphysics of materialism and the superstructure of materialism. The Five Elements Theory covers an important proposition of materialism. Since materialism is limited by theoretical principles, there is no objective world in the theoretical framework of materialism, and the perspective of materialism can only look at the front and back, the back and the back, and materialism only exists in intuitive thinking, reverse thinking, and dialectical thinking. So in a strict sense, materialism does not have a contemplative consciousness, because if you stand in a straight line to look at the problem, there is only intuitive consciousness, and what you see is the other side and the opposite side of the straight line, it is impossible to produce objective thinking, you can only produce intuitive thinking, reverse thinking, and dialectical thinking.

Objective thinking only arises in triadism, because if you look at the world from three points and look at problems from the standpoint of a third person, you are not a materialist, as long as you look at the problem from the standpoint of a third person, the thought you produce is an objective idealist standpoint, because if you look at the problem from the standpoint of a third person, you must look at the problem of a third party from your own consciousness, and the will must exist before things, and you must be the spirit of idealism. This is the truth of the facts, which is not swayed by the idea of consciousness.

Therefore, the triadism is the basis of idealism, and the five elements theory is not the whole world of idealism, and the theoretical framework of the five elements theory is materialism, because when the five pyramids stand on the surface of the object, the fulcrum of the five pyramids is not governed by objective existence, and is completely the first satisfaction of the material conditions, and the first condition of the five elements theory is the first intervention of the material conditions of the five elements, and without the prerequisites of the five substances, it is not the five elements theory, so the five elements theory is the theory of "absolute matter".

Therefore, the Five Elements Theory is the superstructure of dualism, and the Five Elements Theory is the sublimation of dualism, which is equivalent to the Five Elements Theory is the superstructure of materialism and the metaphysics of the spirit of materialism.

Since the Five Elements Theory is the metaphysics of materialism, it is necessary for us to have a comprehensive understanding of the Five Elements Theory.

The Five Elements Theory was produced in the Book of Changes, formed in the Spring and Autumn Period, and the real theoretical system was formed in the middle and late Han Dynasty. The constituent elements of the Five Elements Theory are that the gold in the west, the wood in the east, the fire in the south, the water in the north, and the central earth, in which the gold and wood, the wood and the earth, the water and the water, the water and the fire, and the fire and the gold, and in turn the gold gives birth to water, the water gives birth to wood, the wood gives birth to fire, the fire gives birth to the earth, and the earth gives birth to gold, and so on and so on.

When an object stands on the surface of an object with five pyramids, there must be a fulcrum for the five pyramids, and around this fulcrum there is an important philosophical principle, that is, the separation and balance mechanism between substances.

Let me give an example to demonstrate the rationality of this principle, we take gold as the fulcrum, surrounded by water, fire, earth, and wood, and we know that there is a relationship between them both and a relationship of mutual restraint. If the fire is golden, the children born of gold, the water will come to the rescue, for water can overcome fire. If the wood goes to Ketu, the native child Jin will come to the rescue, because Jin Bike Mu. If the water will overcome the fire, the child born of the fire will come to the rescue, because the earth will overcome the water.

This forms a cyclic mechanism of checks and balances, which is the theoretical knowledge that every materialist should master, which illustrates a truth, that is, the supervision mechanism can not be a mechanism of direct intervention, because direct intervention is bound to weaken the power of the supervised party and hit the enthusiasm of the supervised, but the mechanism of checks and balances avoids this situation, because the mechanism of checks and balances is a mechanism of supervision and balance on the basis of self-restraint, such as Jinkemu, there is fire between Jinkemu, and fire also has the power of supervision and balance。 This tells us an important truth, that is, when you supervise and restrain others, there is also a mechanism behind you to supervise you, and supervision is mutual, one cycle after another, and the cycle repeats itself, rolling development, so that no one side will go beyond the boundaries of the system and become an unsupervised person.

This is the result of the sublimation of dualism to the theory of five elements, thus solving the defect that dualism is prone to blind impulse, making up for the shortcomings of dualism that is not left or right, and also providing a theoretical basis for materialism to enter a new height.

The Theory of the Five Elements tells us that the space for self-development of the material world is divided into four stages, namely, the intuitive stage, the reflective stage, the dialectical stage, and the "absolute matter" stage. Thinking methods, i.e., intuitive thinking, reverse thinking, dialectical thinking, to absolute thinking.

When materialism is sublimated to the theory of the five elements, materialists enter the stage of "absolute thinking", forming a high degree of unity between existence and thinking, that is, the interface of "the unity of heaven and man" in traditional Chinese science.

The theory of the five elements tells us that the world is a world of diversified development, the world is not a world dominated by the "absolute spirit", the world is not only absolute "human nature", but also absolute "reason", when Westerners use absolute "human nature" to preach the world, the absolute "rationality" of the Easterners is not all gone; when the Westerners use the "absolute spirit" to conquer the world, that is, when the "absolute material" of the Oriental people comes back to life, when the reborn "reason" returns, they can also conquer the world and shine the world.
