Qi and fate

Chinese often talk about luck, if you separate these two words, it is qi and fate. Especially in the dark times, social turmoil, and personal misfortunes, difficulties, setbacks, and failures, I always like to talk about qi and fate. These two concepts of "qi" and "fate" cannot simply be said to be Chinese secular superstitions. In fact, these two concepts have a deep and solid foothold in the history of traditional Chinese thought. This is the traditional Chinese thought that has spread to the whole society, which is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and has its strong periphery and its profound connotation.

1. Gas number

The word qi in Chinese thought should have at least two meanings.

One is very subtle, and the other is dynamic. If all the matter in the universe is analyzed to the end, it should be very similar. However, when it is extremely small, that is, when it can no longer be analyzed at the end, it must become similar. If it is not similar, it should still not be very subtle, but still divisible. The most infinitely similar, non-analyzable first substance is the common primordial of all things in the universe, which the Chinese call qi. Therefore, it is often used as "gas" and "quality".

That is, qi is active, does not stop, cannot be quiet and constantly active. That's the only way. Therefore, it is possible to change all kinds of differences from the slightest similarity.

To put it simply, there are only two forms of change in this qi. One is gathering and merging, and the other is dispersing and dividing. In the universe, it is only those very similar qi that are moving, gathering and dispersing, and dividing and combining. When you get together, you will have an image. There is a constitution to refer to. When they are separated, their image is also dissolved, and their physique is destroyed. Convergence and merging. It opens up all things in the universe. When they separated, it was as if the gate of this universe was closed, and it was pitch black and chaotic. The Chinese call this gathering and merging the yang of qi. As the saying goes, it's called "yang". Those who are separated and dispersed are the yin of qi. As the saying goes, it's called "yin". In fact, there is no yin and yang in qi, only yin and yang in the flow of qi. Qi Lao is there with yin and yang, and this is the so-called Tao of the Chinese. Therefore, the Tao is always moving, and the Tao can have both "positive" and "negative" sides, and the Tao can have both light and darkness. Reason is attached to the breath. For example, two plus two equals four, and two minus two equals zero. There is also a reason that comes with it.

Since qi is very similar, it must accumulate and change. The so-called change. It's just that a lot of dissimilarities come out. Those that are not similar are determined by the number of accumulations. So we say the number of qi, and this number is the exponential quantity. The accumulation of qi can change when it accumulates to a certain amount. The process of accumulation and change is called transformation. As far as the climate is concerned, the four seasons of the year, from spring to summer, and autumn and winter, this is changing. But the change is gradual, not sudden. It is not that it suddenly changes from spring to summer on a certain day, but since the beginning of spring, it has changed day by day, but the change is so small that there is no change in sight. We should wait for spring not to suddenly turn into summer, but to change slightly from day to day. This kind of change is what we call it. Waiting for this slight dissolution to accumulate at a certain stage, it suddenly changes. By then, it will not be spring, but summer.

Therefore, all the phenomena of the universe are formed and changed in the process of one-size-fits-all. If we can barely use the terminology of Western philosophy, it can also be said that this is a change from quantity to quality. Because the Chinese say qi, it is an analysis of all things in the universe to reach the most primitive kind of minimal. In terms of the concept of qi, there is no difference. The universe is just one and the same, so how can it become all things? In fact, it is only the difference in the amount of qi accumulated by this similarity. If so, all qualitative changes are actually only quantitative changes. The universe is formed in all shapes, in a word, it is all qi.

Therefore, the number of qi is a change, but at the same time it is an inevitability. This kind of change starts from a very small place, and no one can notice it, but when he reaches a certain stage, he can feel that there is a sudden and great change.

2. Fate

Destiny. When Chinese talk about anger, they must talk about numbers. Because qi refers to a very small and moving one, but it has to wait for it to accumulate to a certain amount, and then it can change dramatically. Life refers to a situation, which is larger and more fixed, so it must be both lucky, and luck can be rotated, and this larger and more fixed situation can be loosened and resolved. And when the Chinese talk about the number of gas, they must also talk about fate. In this, we must consider and cooperate, weigh the baht, and look at each other lively, so that we can see the transformation of heaven and earth.

3. Sexuality

Sex originated from the mandate of heaven, and Confucianism evolved into the Yin and Yang family, and they planted the roots of various superstitions in Chinese society for thousands of years. They say that there are many kinds of human personalities, and so is the character of heaven. For example, in the spring, it is the Qing Emperor who ordered him, and he is good at life. In winter, the Black Emperor was in charge, and he was good at killing. Therefore, spring is coming, all beings are competing, and winter is coming, and the earth is slaughtered. There are five emperors in the sky, blue, yellow, red, white, and black, and they change their orders, so as to cooperate with the changes of the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn, and winter, and with the five elements of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth on the earth, to deduce all the operation and blessings and disasters of life in the universe. The ideology of this school of thought is extremely deep, widespread, active, and powerful in the whole of Chinese society, and we should also pay attention to it.

The so-called five elements of this school are actually just five natures. They categorized all things in the universe in a general way, pointed out five different personalities, and represented them by metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. It is also known as the five natures, but why do you say the five elements? Because the ancient Chinese believed that when different personalities get along, there is mutual growth, and there is also mutual victory. Therefore, any kind of personality is sometimes powerful, sometimes not powerful. When you gain power, you can give birth to another kind of character. At the same time, it can restrain another personality. The one who was restrained lost his momentum, but the one who was induced gained momentum, and the one who gave birth to it also lost his momentum. If so, then the five personalities of all things will always be mutually reinforcing, alternating and changing, and in the end, they will still follow a link and return to the original situation. Such as Mu De Dangling, Jin Kemu, Mu De Decline, Jin Dewang. But fire overcomes gold, water overcomes fire, earth overcomes water, and wood overcomes earth. If so, then Shude should be ordered again. Another example is that wood begets fire, fire begets earth, earth begets gold, gold begets water, and water begets wood. If it is a cycle, Mude gains power again, and he is ordered again. This so-called five virtues are the end. All changes in the universe are, to put it simply, yin and yang. Subdivided, it is the five elements that are mutually reinforcing. The so-called time as the emperor in the book "Zhuangzi" is this meaning. Those who dominate the heavens and the earth are also changing, sometimes Mude is the emperor, and sometimes Huode is the emperor. This is a major principle, but by extension, it has led to all kinds of taboos and superstitious sayings.

4. The five elements of yin and yang

Originally, the theory of the five elements of yin and yang was mainly about the great trend of the universe, and it was implemented in the world of life, so there was world fortune and national fortune. And successively descended to several big families and big people who maintained the fortunes of the world and the country, and then there were family fortunes and the fortunes of a certain person. And the more descending, everyone fell to the ground, and someone came to count the eight characters for him, and the ranking was lucky. Those are not to be relied upon. It also shifted from the five elements and eight characters to geographical feng shui, such as Feng Ho in the Western Zhou Dynasty and Luoyi in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. The former Han capital was Chang'an, and the later Han moved to Luoyang. The situation of the establishment of the capital, the rise and fall of the country's fortunes. And follow this descending, such as the above-mentioned ancestor to open the mountain, the meteorological situation of a certain mountain, the scenery and clouds, the mountains and rivers to the back, the traffic vein, which is in this temple for hundreds of years of prosperity and decline, can also be said to have a great relationship. But when you descend again, to a certain house, a grave, or even a portal, a table and chair, the situation is not enough to blame.

Song Ru Zhang Zai once said: "Establish a heart for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, continue to learn for the saints, and open peace for all generations." This is a Confucian saying. The lives of most people depend on the fortune of the atmosphere. The atmospheric movement can be transferred by one or two people. These one or two people can preside over the transfer of this atmosphere, and they are in their hearts. How can there be such power? It is caused by a certain kind of education. This kind of learning has been created by the ancient sages, and we are waiting to carry it forward. The foundation of eternal peace must be built in the heart of this one or two square inches. If you focus on the fate of qi number, your eyes only look outward, and you look back and forget this heart, then there is no way to calculate the fate of qi number. When you know that the way of heaven says, sex is based on fate. In humane terms, life is based on sex. Therefore, by promoting the nature of the highest good, the fortune of peace can be created. And you should know that from the way of heaven, the number is born from anger. In humane terms, the anger is more than a number. Therefore, by accumulating small things, the spirit of Haoran can be cultivated by Jiyi, and by the heart of one or two people, it can dominate the fortunes of the world and act on behalf of the heavens.

Qi is transported by accumulation, and although the qi is very small, but when it accumulates to a certain degree or quantity, a great movement can occur. And the power of this movement is incomparably great and irreversible. Therefore, although the qi is easy to move, it must be the accumulation of numbers. Although fate is determined, it can wait for the turn of fortune.

Its mechanism lies in the summoning of qi, the so-called echoing with the same voice, seeking each other with the same qi, the clouds from the dragon, the wind from the tiger, and the saint to do and all things to see. He also said: Harmony is auspicious, and obedience is evil. And Shun Ji Zhong and Huaying outward, one person has a celebration, and all the people rely on it. Qi and Qi phase inspiration start from a very small place, and can reverse the fortune of the world. However, it is precisely because the qi is very small and active, and it is easy to inspire each other, that the few can turn the majority. But as soon as the majority grows and the minority is drowned, the minority loses its dominance and mediation, and its luck turns in the opposite direction. If we think that the turning of the minority into the majority is a kind of mediation, a reversal, then the overwhelming of the minority by the majority is a kind of degradation, a kind of conversion. Retreat is a kind of obedience, for femininity, and mediation is a kind of progress, for masculinity. But the extremes of things must be reversed, Zhenxia can have a yuan, and Kangyang must have regrets. If so, it is a yin and a yang, and it runs endlessly. There is no end to the way of heaven, and humanity can never be slackened. Therefore, it is said: "Tianxingjian, a gentleman is constantly striving for self-improvement." ”

The reason why the operation of the Nine Heavens Barrier of Shenzhou requires faith is precisely to maintain the luck of the Chinese land. (To be continued.) )
