Chapter 284: The Right of Mind. send

Princess Runan took the initiative to oppose Li Yifu, which surprised Shi Bufan. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info because Princess Runan said so, it is obviously not in agreement with Li Yifu's statement, and I don't think that Li Yifu has the qualifications to start a sect.

"Princess, why do you oppose Li Yifu's idea?" Shi Bufan asked.

Princess Runan is currently only about seven or eight years old, but coming here to study can be regarded as entering Shi Bufan's door, Shi Bufan will not suppress any opinions, since she has her own opinions, it doesn't hurt to say it. As a teacher in the new era, Shi Bufan naturally knows that the relationship between teachers and students should not be that kind of "domination", but should be academic friends, friends who sit and discuss together. Even if students have different opinions, they should not use their own authority to suppress them, which is not conducive to academic development. He was not ordinary in the past, and he didn't argue with his teachers less back then, so in line with the Confucian idea of not doing to others what you don't want to do to others, he naturally would not suppress the unique opinions of those juniors.

"Lord Shi, do I think that conscience is for the daily use of the people? How can the people's daily use be compared with conscience, conscience is the avenue of understanding people's hearts, heaven and earth, and clothing, food, housing and transportation are only the foundation for maintaining the avenue of understanding, but it is not the avenue. The daily use of the people is not a real avenue, otherwise how can they study, just directly attack together to make a living, and there is no need to understand what avenue. We must concentrate on our studies, so how can we be busy with such daily things? The true pure heart of learning, that is running for daily needs, is itself full of external objects, how can it be truly free of external objects? Princess Runan said.

Li Yifu also argued: "Princess, although you are a princess, but in the Mingli Hall, anyone is a Taoist friend who sits and talks about the Tao, and there is no distinction between high and low status. So I think that human beings need daily needs, so how can it not become the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. The human heart lies in people, if human beings cannot survive and reproduce, then how can they truly understand the avenue. Our mind is to believe that the heavens, the earth and the universe exist because of human beings, and if human beings cannot survive, then heaven and earth naturally do not exist. Continuing human beings, it is the avenue of heaven and earth, so running around for the daily use of three meals a day is actually a kind of enlightenment, how can it not be called a great avenue. Maintaining the needs of human survival is also safeguarding people's hearts, and maintaining people's hearts is also safeguarding heaven and earth. If all human beings disappear, heaven and earth will disappear as well. ”

"This is a mistake, our mind is the way of cultivating the mind, we must ensure a pure heart, for such daily needs of mundane things, that is already the heart has external things, so how can it be regarded as a heart without external things?" Princess Runan also retorted.

Li Yifu also argued: "I think that the mind has no external things, but the mind has no external things. What people need is to survive, but not to pursue excessive external objects means that the mind has no external objects. The master of the hall once said that the absence of external objects in the mind is not the real nothingness, but the undeceived by illusory things. But the daily necessities are the real things for human survival and reproduction. Although we do not pursue excessive wealth in gold, silver, jewelry, and clothing, it is still possible to pursue food and clothing, and this thing that is necessary to maintain people's daily life is not an external thing. ”

"But the human heart is endless, and you can guarantee that with these external things, you won't need more?"

"That is, his realm is not enough, and he can't truly understand the conscience in his heart, so he will be confused by external objects."

……

Li Yifu actually argued with Princess Runan, and Shi Bufan probably heard the biggest difference between Li Yifu and Princess Runan. Li Yifu actually takes the bottom route, and Li Yifu believes that what human beings need for survival is actually the world's heaven and earth. The "world view" of the study of mind is actually built in the human heart, because only when the human heart exists, heaven and earth will exist. If humanity perishes, then this "heaven and earth" will naturally disappear as a result, and the world will no longer exist. To maintain the survival and reproduction of human beings is to maintain the existence of heaven and earth, so the daily needs of human beings are also to maintain the mind.

Li Yifu's opinion is to meet the daily needs of human beings, that is, it is a kind of cultivation, and it is a way to understand the great way of heaven and earth.

However, Princess Runan obviously thinks the opposite, thinking that this avenue of heaven and earth should be separate from daily needs. Princess Runan believes that the realization of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth should not be tied to daily needs, although it is necessary for human beings to maintain daily needs, but it should not be tied to daily needs. Because Princess Runan believes that daily needs are actually a "foreign object", and the materials for human survival are actually a "foreign object", on the contrary, the mind advocates that all "foreign things" should be excluded, so that we can truly understand the conscience.

Li Yifu is just the opposite, believing that daily needs are not "foreign things", but that daily needs are one of the real "heavenly consciences" of human beings.

Shi Bufan was also thinking about it, and thought to himself: "Li Yifu, I remember that his father used to be a county prince, but the county official is just a minor official of the nine grades, a county official from other places, not a county of Jing County, so his status is only a nine grades." Jiupin petty officials, most of them were born in a poor family, and they belong to the kind of people who are busy for three meals a day. In this case, he was born as a nine-grade petty official, but he is not really out of production, but he has to be busy for the things of daily survival, so it is not surprising that his daily needs for his growth process are not surprising. On the contrary, this princess Runan was born in the royal family, and she has been in the royal family since she was born. Although she was sick, she was also free of food and clothing. Under the life of worry-free food and clothing, he will be separated from ordinary working people to a certain extent. Now that he is seven years old, he has never worked with the working people in person, so she is naturally influenced by traditional thinking, believing that education should be a certain degree of full-time education, which is the foundation of education. ”

In the course of the academic debate between Princess Runan and Li Yifu, Shi Bufan actually found some clues, a dispute over academic research methods that had not been truly resolved for thousands of years. In fact, there are many people who believe that academic research should be full-time research, and that it is the right way to study academics without production and concentrate on academic research. However, there are also some people who think that any academic in this world should be in contact with ordinary people and ordinary working people to conduct research, because ordinary grassroots working people have an incomparably huge amount of knowledge, and only by really going to the grassroots people can they learn a lot.

Of course, both of these statements have their own successes and failures. Closed-minded research is easy to lead to the thinking of "working behind closed doors", which has its shortcomings. But in the same way, if you really go to the grassroots level, it also has its shortcomings, such as the general low level of education of ordinary people at the bottom and the inability to truly express themselves. This is not an extraordinary time to look down on ordinary working people, and no matter what era the average education level of the grassroots people is still a gap with the top level, this is a fact that cannot be completely denied. Although the grassroots people have his wisdom, they also have their shortcomings and are not good at expressing themselves. Letting a person who studies academics go to the grassroots level is easy to be delayed by something else.

Therefore, full-time production and non-full-time production each have their own advantages and disadvantages, and each has its own examples of success and failure.

"The master of the hall once said that the unity of knowledge and action, and the study and understanding for daily needs, is not it the unity of knowledge and action?" Li Yifu said that it was obvious that he was going to use the "unity of knowledge and action" as a means to oppose Princess Runan.

However, Princess Runan also said: "I think the unity of knowledge and action is not for daily needs, but for your higher pursuit, truly transcending the universe of heaven and earth." For the sake of daily needs, isn't that the pursuit of mundane things? ”

"Isn't the daily need also for the foundation of the human heart? Heaven and earth and the universe are all in the heart, how can we casually transcend? For daily needs, it is also realization. If a person has no worries about food and clothing, what can he realize? Our mind study is for everyone to become a saint, and there are thousands of ways to cultivate, so why can't we realize the Great Dao while doing it for our daily needs? ”

But how can you concentrate on your daily needs? The unity of knowledge and action is not so, but for practice. Practice in learning, learning in practice, not chaotic understanding for daily needs. If we realize it in our daily needs, how can we ensure that a pure and innocent heart is easily disturbed by external objects, and this is not the opposite direction? ”

……

Princess Runan and Li Yifu quarreled again, both thinking that what they said was right and the other party's opinion was wrong. As for the young students in the back, they are also discussing, because these two have their own understandings, and there are also many people behind them who support their own statements. Some students from poor backgrounds supported Li Yifu, while some from better backgrounds supported Princess Runan, and both sides also criticized each other here. They quarreled with each other here, each believing that their claims were right.

Shi Bufan finally knew that there are schools of thought in people and academics, but Shi Bufan didn't expect that this school would appear so early. Shi Bufan also chose a laissez-faire approach, and did not suppress any understanding and understanding, because he believed that the more the truth was debated, the more clear it became, and the so-called "truth" could be maintained without suppression.

Perhaps many people think that relying on the story of Confucius's "Zhu Shao Zhengmao" is used as an excuse to oppose academic opponents and kill people, but Shi Bufan has already raised a lot of doubts, that is, there are too many doubts about Confucius's punishment of Shao Zhengmao, because the records of killing Shao Zhengmao are also written after Confucius and their deaths for many years, and the parties involved in that year have already been all ancient, after all, the average life expectancy of human beings in the Spring and Autumn Period was shorter, and it is not strange to die early. What's more, the arguments in there are actually a lot of doubts, and Shi Bufan has already raised objections for the example of Confucius killing Shao Zhengmao. Now Kong Yingda, on behalf of the Kong family, denies that Confucius killed Shao Zhengmao, because this killing of Shao Zhengmao is almost a huge black material for Confucius, and the Confucian family must of course support Shi Bufan to overturn the case for Confucius.

Shi Bufan does not think that Confucianism is the absolute reason for China's backwardness, because the development history of the East and the West is also in the same vein. China has feudal rituals, while the West also has a dark Middle Ages. China has a heavy agricultural school and a school of economics in the West that is proposed to suppress the development of commerce. From the perspective of historical development, any civilization must go through the stages. Feudal etiquette and the dark Middle Ages in the West were just a manifestation of the fact that the productive forces had reached a certain level and certain ideas had begun to be "extreme".

In the later Ming Dynasty, at the same time node, the emergence of Xinxue began to disintegrate feudal etiquette to a certain extent. At about the same time, the West also began to experience the Renaissance, and the rule of the Dark Middle Ages began to unravel. In the last years of the Ming Dynasty, capitalists began to rise, and social elites began to advocate for limiting the power of the king. Around the same time, revolutions broke out in the West, leading to the emergence of the first constitutional monarchy. The time node and historical development context between the two are actually surprisingly consistent, and the error is often within a hundred years. For the long history of mankind, a hundred years is nothing. However, China was somewhat less fortunate than the West, and the Manchu invasion interrupted the process of historical progress. The West, on the other hand, was fortunate to complete the transformation of its ideological system, so that the West began to surpass the East.

Therefore, Shi Bufan does not think that Confucianism is backward, but that human beings under different productive forces have different understandings. Not to mention Confucianism, even if it is changed to another doctrine, it will also experience a kind of "extremification" and some process of emancipation. For example, science, in fact, to some extent, science will be extreme, and any doctrine will be extreme, not only Confucianism.

"Okay, Princess Runan, since you think yours is right, then I think you can also have your own genre! It's okay to start a sect, since what you agree with is almost exactly the opposite of Li Yifu, and you sit on my right. Of course, according to the practice of male left and female right, then you can also name it right. I sent it. Shi Bufan said.

"Right. Send? At that time, the hall master, what do you think left. Pie and right. faction, which faction is right? As the founder of the science of mind, you should know who is right, right? Princess Runan asked expectantly.

Even Li Yifu looked forward to looking at Shi Bufan, obviously hoping that Shi Bufan would give him an answer, even if Shi Bufan said that his words were wrong, then Li Yifu would admit it. Especially Shi Bufan is the founder of the science of mind, if he speaks, it is also "truth". (To be continued.) )
