Chapter 259: Pinch Your Fingers
259
Divination is very complicated, and the amount of calculations required is quite large, so if you are not smart in your head, especially if you are poor in mathematics, you will not be able to learn at all, let alone be proficient.
The hexagram of the I Ching divination, a total of six lines, each line needs three numbers, that is to say, to get a line, it takes three operations, and each operation, at least a dozen times of calculation, and, after each calculation, but also keep the results of the calculation in mind, finally, the results of the three calculations together, odd numbers are recorded as yang, even numbers are recorded as yin, if the three numbers are odd, that is the old yang, is the change, if only two are odd numbers, that is less yang, in turn, if the three numbers are even, that is the old yin, but also the change, if only two numbers are even, it is less yin.
The I Ching pays attention to change, the interaction of yin and yang, so a line is old yang or old yin, which means that this line is about to change, and it will change in the opposite direction, so it is for change.
When pinching the fingers, the thumb is the main body of the calculation, and the other four fingers are the objects of the calculation, and the left hand and the right hand are carried out at the same time, so when calculating, the left hand and the right hand should be taken into account at the same time, and the amount of calculation is quite huge.
Take the right hand, for example.
For example, if the first segment of the index finger is the number 0, then the first segment of the middle finger is the number 1, the first segment of the ring finger is the number 2, the first segment of the little finger is the number 3, and then down, the second segment of the little finger is the number 4, and then go back, the second segment of the ring finger is 5, and so on, so that each segment has a number.
When pinching, the fingertip of the thumb is pressed on which knuckle corresponds to which number.
But the relevant calculations, not the thumb to press the numbers can be added up, this kind of calculation, there is addition, there is subtraction, there is also multiplication and division, what to use addition and when to use division, there are rules.
But that's not the hardest of all the ways.
The most difficult part is how to get the thumb to press on the knuckles, that is, how those numbers are generated.
The thumb is not pressed indiscriminately on the knuckle by the soothsayer, or rather, the thumb is not consciously pressed on the knuckle by the soothsayer.
When divination, the soothsayer himself must first reach the ethereal state - that is, to reach the state of concentration that the practitioner calls a state of concentration, in which the brain thinks of nothing and nothing, but is not in a daze - and then the thumb begins to calculate, or, more accurately, this calculation, to achieve complete randomness, and his mind cannot influence him in any way.
But after each calculation, the mind must immediately wake up, keep in mind the results of the calculation, and then start the next calculation.
Therefore, in the process of concentration, awakening, re-entering concentration, re-awakening, and divination, this repeated cycle has to go through dozens or even hundreds of times, so ordinary soothsayers simply cannot meet this requirement.
Of course, Li Qingniu is an exception.
He sat on the conference table like a big Buddha, his hands kept pinching back and forth, the soothsayer below did not understand what he was doing, but every movement of his fingers would make everyone's heart skip a beat, so he had not yet completed the divination, and everyone's worship of him was like a surging river, endless, not to mention anything else, just this ability, none of the soothsayers present could do it.
I don't know when, Li Qingniu opened his eyes leisurely.
But he didn't get too busy, he looked around, and after a while, he jumped off the table.
"In the divination just now, I took the fourth hexagram, the meng hexagram." Li Qingniu said.
The fourth hexagram? Hexagram?
The soothsayers present were stunned.
"What does a hexagram look like?" Someone asked in a low voice.
"Hexagram? Come to think of it, it seems that the second and sixth lines are yang, and the others are yin? Just, what does this mean? ”
"What was the hexagram before the hexagram?"
"It seems to be a tun hexagram before the hexagram, right?"
"Tun hexagram? Tun means that the grass grows hard, right, what is Meng, is it enlightenment? ”
"Meng, it means ignorance." There is humanity.
"Has there been a change? Mr. Li didn't seem to say what it was? ”
On Twitter, in the conference room, a group of soothsayers whispered.
Li Qingniu didn't speak, and when everyone was quiet, he continued: "This time for divination, the hexagram I got was like a hexagram, and it didn't change. When there is a change, the main thing is to change the line, and when there is no change, the whole hexagram is the main one, do you remember what the hexagram of the meng hexagram says? ”
Everyone was stunned, you look at me, I look at you, after a while, a soothsayer said weakly: "If I remember correctly, the hexagram of the meng hexagram seems to be like this, Meng, Heng." I begged Tong Meng, and Tong Meng begged me. The first accusation, repeated blasphemy, blasphemy, then no accusation. Lee Jung"
"Do you know what those words mean?" Li Qingniu asked.
Someone opened his mouth, but in the end, he didn't dare to say it.
Li Qingniu smiled and said: "I beg Tong Meng, Tong Meng beg me, this sentence is actually very easy to understand, not that I beg to teach ignorant children, but that children should beg me to teach him, of course, here I, and children, is abstract, not real, so the first step, we have to figure out who is me and who is the child."
Meng, is the meaning of ignorance, do you remember what the previous hexagram is, the previous hexagram, is the Tun hexagram, the grass is difficult to drill out of the land, then, obviously, after the grass drills out of the ground, the world above the land, is ignorant, what to do if you are ignorant, is it necessary to learn, need enlightenment? What I got from the divination just now is this hexagram. Therefore, we must first figure out, who is Tong Meng? ”
After a pause, Li Qingniu looked around and said, "The question I asked for divination just now is what we should do after we arrive at the Ability Research Institute, right?" Since we divination, and the reason why we divinate is because we don't know and are ignorant, it is obvious that the Tong Meng mentioned in the hexagram refers to us.
Therefore, the divination just now has already told us that we are now in ignorance, we don't understand anything, we don't know anything, what is the ability, how the ability is generated, will the ability bring us any danger, can we make ordinary people also produce the ability, we don't know, so we are very blind now, so, what should we do?
In fact, divination has already told us, at this time, it should be Mengtong to explore, that is to say, it should be those of us who don't understand, take the initiative to explore, to study, instead of waiting for the answer to appear. If we take the initiative to explore, then it is auspicious, otherwise, it is blasphemy! Therefore, after we enter the Institute of Abnormal Abilities, what should we do, the answer is already obvious, we have to take the initiative to explore with those researchers, work together, don't people have any questions, come to ask us, we have a reaction, now, we are ignorant children, we have to take the initiative to learn, take the initiative to grow, after entering the Institute of Ability, we must be more active, more active, in this way, we can not only figure out the subject we want to study, our own divination ability, can also be improved.
