The ninth hexagram, store and wait

1. Chinese culture stresses hypocrisy and reasoning, while Western culture stresses truth and rules.

The combination of numbers composed of Luo Shu, formed into a combination of nine shoes, three on the left and seven on the right, two or four for the shoulder, six or eight for the foot, with five in the center, the position of the nine palaces in accordance with the round place of the sky is the upper row of three numbers is 4 Xun Palace, 9 Palace, 2 Kun Palace, the middle row of three numbers is 3 Zhen Palace, 5 Middle Palace, 7 to the Palace, the lower row of three numbers is 8 Gen Palace, 1 Kan Palace 6 Qiangong, from the horizontal and oblique any direction of the three numbers add up to L5, that is, 4 + 9 + 2 = 15, 3 + 5 + 7 = 15, 8 + 1 + 6 = 15, 4 + 3 + 8 = 15, 9 + 5 + 1 = 15, 2 +7+6=15，4+5+6=15，2+5+8=15。

From the point of view of modern science, in the strict sense, the number combination composed of Vena is no longer the permutation and combination of binary number principles. It should be attributed to the mathematical permutations and combinations of trigonometric geometry, i.e., the angle system and the radian system of trigonometric geometry. Angle, if the circumference of a unit circle is defined as 360°, then its l/360 is 1°. Radians, which defines the radians of an angle corresponding to a unit circle as the radians of that angle.

Therefore, by calculating the nine-house chart by the determinant method, we can get a week of 360 days, that is, det[4,9,2;3,5,7;8,1,6]=360.

It can be seen that the "Vena" evolved from the "Hetu" is no longer the number permutation and combination of binary numbers, but the mathematical permutations and combinations of trigonometric geometry, and the nine-palace diagram is calculated with the determinant number, and the result is a week definition of 360°.

In addition, from the composition of wearing nine shoes one, left three right seven, two four for the shoulder, six or eight for the foot, in order of the Lotu number in the middle of five, any combination of three digits is a triangle or a three-point chord.

Therefore, the nine-palace diagram composed of "Vena" is actually the law of mathematical geometry Euler's circle, that is, the midpoint of the three sides of the triangle, the vertical foot of the three heights and the nine points of the three Euler points are in a circle.

In a philosophical sense, the nine-palace diagram composed of "Vena" is the Chinese version of the Western doctrine of the Trinity. The scholarship attributed to the Chinese is "Tao begets one, life two, two begets three, and three begets all things." All things are negative yin and embrace yang, and they are impulsive and think they are harmonious".

However, the Chinese did not break through the binary yin and yang circle.

Theoretically speaking, for 5,000 years, the Chinese have always been between "Tao gives birth to one, life to two", unable to break through the theoretical fortress of "two to three, three to all things", and have always been closed in the strange circle of "yin and yang two together".

Because, the next sentence "all things are negative yin and embrace yang, impulse thought and harmony" shackles the thinking of Chinese. For 5,000 years, the thinking of the Chinese people has been locked in the strange circle of "yin and yang" thinking, that is, it has been closed to the yin and yang theory of "negative yin and yang".

In fact, "yin and yang" does not exist, the day and night are the result of the exchange of yin and yang. However, "yin and yang" is limited to natural phenomena and natural laws, and is a virtual setting, which is the perception of human observation of nature, rather than a scientific existence, and cannot be introduced to political science, religion and natural science as a scientific basis, and become a serious metaphysical theory.

However, the Chinese apply the laws of nature that should be attributed to natural phenomena to the superstructure as serious metaphysical theories, and use them to guide the development process of politics, religion and science.

It is precisely because the ancient Chinese government has always taken the "theory of yin and yang" as its political theory, so no matter how you think that China's history is a history of yin and yang repeatedly, yin and yang reversed, and there is no progress at all, it is false.

However, on the other hand, Western culture is much more solid in its foundation than in Chinese culture, and its foundation is a discrete culture based on "three points", which pays attention to clarity and clarity. In Western culture, politics, religion, and academia are divided into three parts, each with its own field, and it plays with each other, but it does not interfere with each other. All this is due to the reason why Western culture is rooted in the "three points".

For example, the Chinese Tai Chi, no matter how you look at it, is the yin and yang whole of the 96 negative yin and yang. However, when Westerners look at Tai Chi, they see the three poles, and come to the Western philosophical theory of understanding the law of three-dimensional motion as a whole. That is, cognition begins with sensory perception, and sensory perception is the carrier of objective consciousness. That is to say, through observation, people produce sensory perception, and then transmit cognition through sensory perception, produce objective cognition, and finally become the cognition or cognition that appears in the mind.

In layman's terms, when Chinese see a circle, Chinese only see sensory understanding and rational understanding, but not objective understanding, that is to say, Chinese only see two points. Westerners, however, see sensory cognition and rational cognition, as well as objective cognition. That is to say that Westerners see three points of movement.

So, if you look at Hegel's philosophical thoughts, they all stand on the three points to see the four points, or even the five points. His philosophical thinking is clear, his logic is clear, his arguments are novel, his arguments are reasonable, and he is full of vitality.

However, when you look back at Zhu Xi's rational thoughts, you completely cling to the dualistic argument, standing at two points to look at yin and yang, holding left and right, 96-style argument, you have me, I have you, you and I have no distinction, I am not divided between the enemy and me, nailed between "reason and qi", the meanness is useless, chaos is not open, confusion is rare, darkness is not distinguished, fiction and reality are difficult to distinguish, scheming, and confusing.

In the eyes of the Chinese, to understand the world, only two steps, that is, intuitive and rational, seemingly simple, in fact, very yin, because China pays attention to "negative yin and hold yang", to put it bluntly, it is to look at the yang side from the yin side, look at the front from the back, pay attention to trickery, and cannot completely expose the yang side to the other party.

However, in the eyes of Westerners, the world as a whole, and understanding the world is also from the perspective of the whole, and there are three steps, also called ternary movement, that is, the process of movement from intuition, perception to objectivity.

Therefore, Westerners have three positions in dealing with things, namely, intuitive positions, sensory positions and objective positions. Three points are presented in a circle, three points stand apart, independent of each other, and interact with each other.

It is precisely because of the difference in the cultural roots of the East and the West that the cultural understanding is also different.

Chinese people are reasonable everywhere in doing things, talking about the causes and consequences of things, reasoning from the source, and starting from the yin side. What the Chinese often talk about is to put facts and reason. Chinese love to talk about "reason" in everything, starting from the source of things, which can be traced back to before things were formed, and then replay the development process of things little by little, trace back to the source, exhaustively study to the end, and convince people with "reason". Therefore, the Chinese are reasonable, intuitive and rational, and moral norms. This is the concrete embodiment of Chinese culture's hypocrisy and reasonableness.

On the other hand, Westerners tend to talk about reality in doing things, only looking at the existence of reality, not looking at the cause and effect. Therefore, Westerners talk about "rules" in everything, that is, the rules of the game that Westerners often talk about. Westerners often start with the established rules of things, just look at whether you violate the rules, and talk about things clearly.

Therefore, you will often see that judges in the West have a lot of discretion and can change the number of sentences for a criminal suspect in court. For example, after a judge makes a judgment, a criminal suspect in a Western country raises his middle finger in court to protest because he is dissatisfied with the judge's verdict, of course, this kind of behavior is suspected of insulting the judge in Western countries, so the judge changes the sentence in court and increases the punishment.

If this happens in China, the plot will be reversed, and the Chinese judge will not change the sentence in court anyway and increase the sentence. Because the Chinese pay attention to "laying out facts and reasoning". Chinese judges will think that there must be a reason why you give me the middle finger, so let's put the facts and reason, start from the source, start with the "negative yin", and then "hold the yang", so that you can be convinced and recognize my verdict.

Theoretically speaking, the Chinese understand the world from "rationality", from the yin side to talk about things, talk about yin and yang contracts, and the unity of nature and man.

Therefore, the Chinese, speaking of heavenly reason, attach importance to moral standards, speak of nothingness, talk about fiction, talk about non-reality, intuitive and rational (binary structure). However, from a philosophical point of view, Westerners talk about existence, reality, intuition, and perception to objectivity (triadic structure), believing that the Trinity can be independent of each other and interact with each other. Therefore, Westerners attach importance to the rule of the legal system, and stress the existence of the rules, the truth, and the existence.

Different cultures produce different social phenomena.

For example, in politics, Western countries have a system of separation of powers, that is, the relative independence of the judicial, executive and legislative powers. In ancient China, there was no judicial power, executive power and legislative power, no sense of separation of powers, only the power of monarchs and ministers, and Chinese politics was a unified subject, a dualistic structure, and only a confused and mixed imperial government.

Religion, Western religion is a theistic religion, which speaks of the Trinity, that is, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The Chinese religion is an atheistic religion, which talks about the unity of heaven and man, that is, heaven and man, and there is no god. This is true of the three major religions of Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism in China, Buddhism itself is a foreign theistic religion, but after being improved in China, it is also a dualistic religion, that is, the religion of Buddha and man. Buddhism in China is an atheistic religion.

Science, Western science is clearly classified, mainly divided into three categories, namely natural science, social science and thinking science, such as mathematics, physics, chemistry, astronomy, medicine, psychology, logic, etc., each relatively independent, Western science has hundreds of definitions, and the classification is detailed and clear. And Chinese science, there is no science in ancient China, and there is no scientific classification, Chinese science has been influenced by the culture of "Zhou Yi" since ancient times, and almost all science is related to "Hetu and Luoshu", there is no clear classification, confusion, and confusion.

It was not until the founding of the People's Republic of China that this situation was completely changed, so you will see that after the founding of the People's Republic of China, China's science developed rapidly and progressed.

China's contemporary scientific classification is clear, and there are more than 1,000 definitions, which can be described as rapid development and rapid development. This is also a sign that culture is at the forefront of social development, but it also shows the helplessness of not being able to influence the political process.

2. Why "Vena" can't get rid of the shackles of the yin and yang world of "Hetu".

Strictly speaking, "Hetu" and "Luoshu" are not a set of mathematical principles, although "Luoshu" evolved from "Hetu", but in essence, "Luoshu" and "Hetu" are not a theoretical system.

"Hetu" talks about the truth of "immutable", while "Luoshu" talks about the truth of "changeability".

"Hetu" calculates the relatively static periodic change law of the universe in binary, octal, and decimal systems, which is in line with the true argumentation of modern science for the celestial bodies of the universe and the natural laws of the universe in science. Why?

Because, the mathematical principle of "Vena" is no longer the principle of binary numbers.

In a sense, "Hetu" is closer to the truth, while "Vena" is completely exhaustive.

To understand why, we have to start from the sources of "Hetu" and "Luoshu". In order to make people who don't know "Zhou Yi" understand, I don't have to "dry... Kun "came to talk about "Zhou Yi", and only 12345678 to explain the problem.

In the circle of the "Hetu", the eight numbers of the 12345678, 1234 are arranged from the top (south on ancient Chinese maps, and north from the bottom, just the opposite of modern maps), 5678 is arranged from top to right, and the center of the circle is empty. These eight numbers represent the Chinese theory of "left-handed in the heavenly way and right-handed in the earth", which is the mathematical principle of binary, octal and decimal systems that Westerners later saw.

However, when it came to "Vena", it changed to the nine-digit number of 123456789. The order is 9 on the top, 2 and 4 on the shoulders of the 9, 5 on the middle, 3 on the left and 7 on the right, and 1, 6 and 8 on the bottom. That is, wear nine shoes one, three on the left and seven on the right, two or four for the shoulder, six or eight for the foot, and the number in the middle of the five is arranged. This number arrangement is not strictly speaking binary, octal, and decimal mathematical principles.

This number arrangement appeared in the hexadecimal multiple of "three", so Shao Yong had the pseudo-doctrine of "using the Yuan Jinghui" to appear and fabricate the historical period of the Yuan, Hui, Yun and Shi, that is, one yuan and twelve meetings, one meeting and thirty fortunes, one luck and twelve generations, and one thirty years, a total of 129,600 years of pseudo-doctrine. Now it looks like nonsense, and it can also be said to be the earliest fantasy nonsense in China, which has no scientific basis and belongs to fabricated pseudoscience.

Judging from current science, all the theories set up by "Vena" are virtual and do not exist at all.

So, if "Vena" is no longer a binary, octal, and decimal mathematical principle, why can't "Vena" get rid of the shackles of the yin and yang world of "Hetu"?

This is because China's natural sciences are seriously backward. Before the twentieth century, there were almost no formal natural sciences in China, and China's natural sciences, social sciences, and thinking sciences were packaged together, and there were no taxonomic courses, and students only studied Confucianism in private schools, and one gentleman was determined to study only four books, "Analects", "Mencius", "University", and "The Mean". The Five Classics, "Book of Songs", "Book of Rites", "Zhou Yi", "Spring and Autumn". The practice of the eight-strand text, that is, the fixed format composed of eight parts, namely, breaking the topic, undertaking the topic, starting the topic, entering the topic, starting the stock, middle stock, back stock, and bundle stock, and the title is all from the original text in the Four Books and Five Classics.

Therefore, before the twentieth century, there were no natural sciences in China, let alone social sciences and thinking sciences. In the field of science, Chinese culture has no roots, only virtual science based on Zhou Yi. Even if there were, it was not valued by the superstructure and preached.

The reason is simple, all cultural products that cannot serve the imperial power are products that violate the orthodox consciousness of the royal power and are among the taboos. Even if it produces advanced cultural products, it will not be used by the imperial power and promoted.

As a result, the natural science part of traditional Chinese culture is almost zero, and the basic theory that maintains the development of natural science is only the binary number system based on the "Zhou Yi", and it can also be said that the mathematics of ancient China is based on the "Zhou Yi".

Therefore, if you open the history of China, almost all natural sciences are related to "Zhou Yi", such as astronomy, medicine, mathematics, chemistry, etc., all of which are the children and grandchildren of "Zhou Yi", from "Hetu" and "Luoshu".

It is precisely because of the backwardness of China's natural sciences that no one dares to break through the view of binary numbers in the multivariate data that appears in "Vena" and advance to the advanced mathematical fields such as geometry and functions. The backwardness of the natural sciences eventually leads to the backwardness of culture and thought, and also leads to the stagnation of social development.

Chinese are not without advanced scientific minds, such as the Pythagorean law, as early as the Shang and Zhou dynasties, Shang Gao proposed a special case of the Pythagorean theorem of "Hook three strands four Xuan five", and recorded in the "Zhou Ji Sutra", and by the third century AD, Zhao Shuang of the Three Kingdoms era officially named the Pythagorean theorem in the "Zhou Ji Sutra".

In the West, Pythagoras of ancient Greece in the 6th century BC first proposed and proved this theorem, and he used the deductive method to prove that the square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of two right angles.

Although Shang Gao proposed the principle of "Hook three strands, four Xuanwu", more than 500 years earlier than Pythagoras. However, it is clear that there is a difference between the two, and Pythagoras proposed that the square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of two right angles, which comes from the principle of mathematics. The principle of "hooking three strands, four Xuanwu and five" proposed by Shang Gao came from Zhou Gong Shuoyi, and he still did not get rid of the strange circle set by "Hetu".

Therefore, it is understandable that the "Vena" that appeared in the later period could not get rid of the yin and yang world set by "Hetu".

For the traditional Chinese history and culture, we must have modern cognition, critical learning, can not blindly worship the ancients, think that the ancients are wise, his theories are advanced, great, in fact, now, with today's scientific knowledge compared with ancient humanities and technology, some ancient theories are really dross, garbage, not worthy of modern people to learn.

Of course, we can't see all traditional Chinese culture as cow ghosts and snake gods, but some traditional Chinese culture is really cow ghosts and snake gods.

For example, Kang Youwei, one of the leaders of the Wuxu Reform (Hundred Days Restoration), is a representative of the so-called modern Chinese reform school and new legalism.

Because his thinking was too deeply influenced by the Confucian idea of "the unity of heaven and man", in order to complete the reform as soon as possible, Kang Youwei put forward the borderless theory of "as for the purpose of acting in Datong, integrating China and the West, and placing utopia in the future", and proposed "China, the United States, Britain and Japan", and instructed Yang Shenxiu, an official of the reform faction, to write to Emperor Guangxu on the fifth day of the eighth month (September 20): "Chen Youfu wishes that my emperor will make a great plan as soon as possible, consolidate the three kingdoms of Britain, the United States, and Japan, and do not think that the name of 'United States' is not beautiful." Cixi's intention to hand over the country's military, fiscal and taxation and diplomatic powers to foreigners attracted strong opposition from conservatives. It can be seen that due to a partial understanding of Western culture, it is impossible to eliminate the ghosts, snakes, and gods of Chinese culture that are born in the depths of their hearts.

3. Explain the original text of the small animal hexagram

The 9th hexagram, the small animal hexagram (windy small animal), Xun Shang Qianxia.

Small animals. Prosperous. Dense clouds do not rain, self in the western suburbs.

Livestock, field animals also. —"Sayings"

Note: Tanaka animal husbandry, smooth, cloudy, I am in the western suburbs.

The ninth day of the first month. What a blame for recovering from the Tao?

Repeatedly, back and forth.

Note: Tanaka animal husbandry, returning from the original way, what to worry about, auspicious.

Ninety-two. Pull, Ji.

Lead, lead the front also.

Note: Tanaka animal husbandry, return before introduction, auspicious.

Ninety-three. Public opinion speaks, and husbands and wives turn against each other.

Yu: Che Yu also. Say: rest, rest, give up. Spokes: Wheels also.

Note: Tanaka animal husbandry, the wheel of the car stopped. When a husband and wife have a dispute, the husband cannot suppress his wife.

June Fourth. There is Fu, the blood is removed, and there is no blame.

Fu: A letter is also true. Ti: Respect, fear.

Note: If you have credit, you will be honored with blood, you will keep your promises, and you will respect those who speak the faith. Hassle-free.

Ninety-five. There is Fu Shuru, rich and its neighbors.

Spasm, tie also.

Note: People who have credit, abide by integrity, and keep their promises are like hand and foot ties, and unity is like one person. For the rich not to be exclusive, but to be shared by neighbors.

On nine. Both the rain and the place, Shang Dezai. The woman is very chaste. Looking at the moon, the gentleman is murderous.

Both, snacks also, finished also. Virtue, liter also. Li: Woe, danger. Hope, death, hooliganism,

Note: In the field of animal husbandry, after the rain is over, after the residence rests, the vehicle still has unloaded materials that need to be loaded. Woe must be in place for the woman, and when she runs away at the beginning of the month, the man can flee from the evil.

Judging from this hexagram, this is a description of the ancient nomadic family, the text is concise and concise, subtle and delicate, from top to bottom, the whole text is throughout, depicting the scene of the cloudy pastoral fields in the western suburbs. The content vividly depicts a herdsman couple in a pastoral field, who work hard to get rich, but do not forget the communist spirit shared with their neighbors. This phrase is the birthplace of the Chinese sharing idea, the natural sharing spirit of the Chinese nature originates from this, and the phenomenon of Chinese neighbors helping each other with food probably also originates here, indicating that in ancient times, Chinese had the meaning of neighborly sharing and social friendliness.

Here are four sentences that summarize the meaning of the whole text.

Clouds are gathering in the western suburbs,

Livestock in the wild for good fortune.

Stockpiling is to be shared,

The neighborhood is friendly to this day.
