Chapter 16: The Sea and the Sky!
[I hope to leave a recommendation ticket, thank you! ] 】
Tang Xiao's heart was shocked, both shocked and complicated. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Shocked because he never expected that the mysterious purple qi in his mud pill palace was the legendary Confucianism and Taoism, according to historical records, throughout the ages, the person who raised Confucianism and Taoism was not a great Confucian, although Tang Xiao was well-read and could weigh his own knowledge, how could he dare to stand side by side with those great Confucians who founded sects?
And the complexity of his mind is that Tang Xiao has not been confused by foreign objects for so many years, has not been disturbed by the mundane, has been careful in his heart, and has been poor for so many years, but he did not expect to be able to cultivate Confucianism and Taoism in one day, which is too incredible.
Professor Liu Gongming said that Tang Xiao's book "heart is like a rock" contains righteousness, it seems that what he said is true, those four words are written by Tang Xiao, and there is righteousness lingering between the operation of the pen.
Tang Xiao squinted at the bearded old man, and said word by word: "You are a little tree god, where do you know what Confucianism and Taoism?" I see that your eyes are floating and your words are flickering, and you must have something in mind. If you are honest, say them one by one, otherwise, hum! Hum! ”
Tang Xiao snorted coldly, his eyes were like knives, staring at the tree god, although the purple qi in his mud pill palace was not stimulated, it gave the tree god great coercion. The little Yin God, who was originally a person who tended to be inflammatory, greedy for life and afraid of death, was deterred by Tang Xiao, his legs were weak, his mind was lost, where did he dare to hide it, he immediately bowed down and said:
"The immortal is aware of everything, and the little old man does not dare to hide it. The little old man is vulgar and shallow, where does he know the way of cultivation? They are all Taoist priests from the east of the Thousand Mountains Temple, and the day before yesterday they summoned the two worlds of Yin and Yang in Lingang, asking everyone to help them find a person, saying that this person is young, not a Taoist or a Buddha, but he has great magical powers, and killed the black dog demon he sat on.
The Taoist priest from the east is a powerful character of the Nanyue Daomen, and the person he is looking for must not be an ordinary person. Since it is not a Taoist or a Buddha, then only Mr. Confucianism and Taoism can make the Taoist master pay so much attention, the little old man has spent a hundred years in vain, and today when he sees the immortal temperament, he naturally thinks of the person who is looking for the Taoist priest from the east, so he blurted out......"
Tang Xiao raised his eyebrows and muttered: "Thousand Mountains View, Thousand Mountains? Black Dog Demon? ......" He couldn't help but sink in his heart, didn't the strange thing he encountered a few days ago happen near the Thousand Hills Villa? Could it be that the mountain where Zhongshan Park is located is a thousand mountains?
And the black dog demon, could it be that a purebred Tibetan mastiff with dark hair is really a monster?
If that's the case, then the white fox......
These thoughts turned in Tang Xiao's mind almost instantly, he couldn't help but be vigilant in his heart, he even felt that the worldview he had built for more than 20 years had completely collapsed in a few days, it turned out that there were really gods, ghosts and demons in this world, and there were really people who cultivated and cultivated Buddhism in this world?
"The son is silent, and the strange power is confused!" Tang Xiao said silently, his messy mind slowly regained his calm.
He is a strong-willed person, otherwise it would be impossible for him to cultivate Haoran righteousness.
You must know that in today's world, especially since the Chinese National Republic, Taizu revolution, overthrew the three mountains, Confucianism and Taoism are considered to be the root of the decadent ideas of feudal society, Taizu put forward the slogan of overthrowing Confucius very early, and the ancestral halls of Confucianism and Taoism saints have been knocked down, where are there still people learning Confucianism in the world?
In recent years, the revival of Chinese culture and Confucianism have begun to be recognized, but in today's world, people's hearts are impetuous and interests are paramount. How many people in the younger generation can calm down and study? In a society where money is king and mercenary is the only one, what is the use of laughing at poverty and not prostitution? Useless is a scholar!
"There is a golden house in the book, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book" The inspirational quotes of ancient readers have become a laughing stock in today's society, and now college students can't even recognize the words in an ancient children's enlightenment book "Hundred Family Names", and now the doctoral students in the society may not even be able to recite the "Three Character Classic", such a world, where are there Confucian and Taoist masters?
"I am good at nurturing my heroic spirit", the sage Mencius said loudly, the Chinese nation has been practiced for a hundred years, and Tang Xiao is an outlier, good ancient literature, good reading, Confucian classics four books and five classics are familiar with the heart, and he has a calm and firm heart, sticking to his heart, plus by chance, he has glimpsed a trace of Confucianism and Taoism, that's all.
Confucianism, inherited for thousands of years, has been interpreted by countless people, used by countless people, which can be said to be the essence of dross, in Tang Xiao's heart, the so-called Confucianism and Taoism are actually simple, just six words: "Do the right way, there are achievements." ”
He looked inward, feeling the wisp of purple qi in the Mud Pill Palace, although there was only a very subtle wisp, but he felt the immensity from this wisp of purple qi, and for a moment he was full of pride in his heart, and he opened his mouth to recite: "I am good at raising my Haoran qi!" ”
As soon as these words came out, they were like spring thunder blooming, and the purple qi in the Mud Pill Palace seemed to have been summoned, tumbling and jumping, extremely active.
In an instant, a lot of information poured into Tang Xiao's mind.
Confucianism and Taoism are inherited, and the law is not passed on to the six ears, Tang Xiao recited the information in his mind, and said "Song of Righteousness": "Heaven and earth have righteousness, and miscellaneous manifolds." The lower part is the river mountain, and the upper part is the sun star. Yu people say Haoran, full of gloom. Huanglu when Qingyi, Han and Tuming Court ......"
The purple qi continued to roll with Tang Xiao's recitation, Tang Xiao's image became more and more solemn, almost inviolable, the tree god bowed his head, prostrate on the ground, and was intimidated by Tang Xiao's momentum, trembling all over, and didn't even dare to raise his head.
Tang Xiao's understanding of Confucianism and Taoism is "to do the right way and make a difference." Tang Xiao has comprehended these six words, but he has not had time to practice, Confucianism and Taoism Grandmaster Yang Ming Gong has the so-called "unity of knowledge and action", Tang Xiao did not practice, he only glimpsed the door of Confucianism and Taoism, and there is still a distance of 108,000 miles from the real Confucianism and Taoism.
Zi said: "When a disciple enters, he is filial, and when he goes out, he is a brother, he is cautious and faithful, he loves the public, and he is kind." If you have more than enough energy, you will learn the text. This sentence says that young people are filial to their parents at home, can respect their brothers when they go out to socialize, are cautious in their work, speak honestly and trustworthy, and love everyone extensively, especially with those who are benevolent.
This sentence reflects the essence of Confucianism and Taoism, Confucianism is the cornerstone and foundation, and it should act step by step, not arrogant or impatient. In the eyes of the sage, "learning" is the first priority, the so-called "young do not learn, what is the old?" If you don't learn, you can't understand the meaning, but you still can't be impatient about such an important thing.
If you want to learn, you must first lay a solid foundation, only if you understand the way of filial piety, the way of honesty and friendship in the world, you can start learning, without that foundation, even if you learn, it is useless.
Where is like the current society, everything is not needed, as long as you can make money, even if you are abducted and cheated, and you are not caught by the Public Security Bureau, you can be regarded as capable. And there is also a kind of thinking today, no treacherous business, no ruthless and no rich, upright, how can you make money, how can you get rich?
Tang Xiao is almost thirty years old, and he has done nothing, but for Confucianism and Taoism, it is normal, Tang Xiao graduated eight years ago, and he can keep his heart and never forget his original intention, what he keeps is the heart of Confucianism, which is equivalent to laying a solid foundation, otherwise even if he has adventures, it is impossible to save Haoran righteousness.
For example, if he saved Ma Ping's life, Ma Ping wanted to give him a reward of 10 million, if it was an ordinary person, he would definitely accept it without hesitation and joyfully. But Tang Xiao refused, because this 10 million was not what he expected, it was the so-called flying windfall, a gentleman loves money, and he takes it in a good way, Tang Xiao does not take this 10 million.
If Tang Xiao takes it, he will be an ordinary man in the world for the rest of his life, even if he can get tens of millions of net worth, he will be just an ordinary man after all, and he will no longer have anything to do with Confucianism and Taoism.
So in a sense, Tang Xiao's life in the past 30 years is a process of laying a solid foundation, and the foundation is solid, and the future is limitless.
After reading a righteous song, Tang Xiao's spiritual temperament is completely different, the whole person is like being reborn, the purple qi in the mud pill palace is more condensed, and the whole person is like a round of rising sun, righteous and awe-inspiring, frank and chic.
The legacy continues......
"The realm of Confucianism and Taoism is said to stand, it is said that it is not confused, it is said that the destiny of heaven, and it is said that the ears are obedient to ......"
Cultivating Confucianism and righteousness, there are also realms, the initial realm is the realm of standing, and the future is not confused, it is the destiny of heaven, and it is the ear shun......
Tang Xiao has just stepped into the threshold of Confucianism and Taoism, and he can't even reach the lowest realm. Standing is the first filial piety, knowing good and evil, knowing etiquette, debating right and wrong, Tang Xiao has already done this, and it is with this that he stepped into the threshold of Confucianism and Taoism.
The second determination is that although Tang Xiao has lived happily for eight years, he has no plan for his future, and the whole person lives in a muddy nightmare, looking ahead, only feeling foggy, lonely and confused is a portrayal of Tang Xiao's eight years of work and life. So determined to do this, Tang Xiao didn't have it at all.
The third meritorious service, this popular understanding can be understood as having a deed, Confucian students, when worrying about the country, the people and the world, Taoism is passive and retreating, ruling by inaction, all living beings are suffering, and the sea of suffering is endless is a negative retreat from the world, these ideas are not Confucian Confucianists should follow the thoughts, to become a Confucian, you must have a deed.
It has been eight years since Tang Xiao graduated, he has no career, he is empty-handed, and he has done nothing at all, which is still far, far from the realm of standing.
Carefully savoring the teachings of the inheritance, Tang Xiao's mind suddenly opened up, and there was an unprecedented fullness and comfort in his heart, he was lonely in the past 20 years of life, especially in the eight years after graduation, he was in Lingang such a materialistic society, in this huge dye vat, he witnessed the classmates around him, his lovers were assimilated by the big dye vat of society, and went with the flow.
His persistent persistence has been regarded as a fool, as a pedantic and stupid and useless person, who can understand the grievances in his heart? That loneliness, that pain that the world doesn't understand and recognize, haunts him and makes him miserable.
He even doubted whether his outlook on life was really wrong, doubted that he might really be a useless person, his self-confidence gradually lost, and his will even began to be depressed.
It was only at this time that he finally heard the inheritance of Confucianism and Taoism, and he felt that his life had a direction from now on, and all the grievances he had suffered before were now no longer worth mentioning, and those who had laughed at him and despised him, he now looked at them and felt that the other party was so small.
Unconsciously, Tang Xiao had already left the big banyan tree, and he found that the sky was already bright, and the square on the street sounded a loud singing, which was the "Sea and Sky" by the Xin Orchestra, and the lyrics sang:
"The sea and the sky are after the bravery
Break the lock of fate with attachment
Indifferent people
Thank you for looking down on me for once
Let me not bow my head and live more brilliantly......"
