Chapter 663: Bending into Everything
Xuan Chu thought to himself, this master and master, it seems that they are still shirking! I don't have any cheats for my heart at all, that's why I say that my heart should be like this, like that, uh......
If you know what your heart should be, what else do you ask! But it's always the words of the great gods, what they say is still very reasonable, it's better to listen to it more, otherwise there is no place to listen to it in the future!
Chu Chu smiled: "Hehe, what is the third thing?" ”
Zhong Liquan said with a smile: "The third is the spirit of bending into all things. Before Taoism, "Zhou Yi Chuan" said: "The master is in harmony with heaven and earth, the sun and the moon, and the four seasons." "After the heaven and earth are handed over, the way of heaven and earth will be made with wealth, and it will be appropriate to complement heaven and earth." It is pointed out here that the way of heaven and the way of earth are opposite and harmonious, and their coordination is mediated by man. Lao Tzu raised people to an important position: "Therefore, the Tao is great, the sky is great, the earth is great, and the people are also great." There are four great domains, and people live in one of them." Since "man is also great", then man is not only dependent on and subject to nature, but must control the laws of nature. Because man depends on nature to survive, and he has to exchange material things with nature. Taoism further proposes here: people should think twice, judge the situation, ask immortals and ask questions without acting recklessly; If we "act recklessly" in the opposite way, we will inevitably corrupt our minds and even endanger human beings themselves. Practitioners of Taoism believe that people and all things in the universe are mutually sensitive, and the basis of induction is that people and all things have spirituality, and people and things communicate with each other. As a member of the cosmic community, human beings should aim to promote the harmony and perfection of the entire universe, and should not stifle the vitality of the universe by destroying all kinds of natural objects. ”
Hui Chu said: "Ah, I see, therefore, Taoism not only gives people a kind of ideological belief to settle down or focus on the perfection and observance of doctrines and canons, and seeks the solemnity and piety of sacrifices and prayers, but also concretizes beliefs or doctrines and canons into various Taoist skills and Taoism, and then forms an operating system to guide believers to practice and practice. It can be said that Taoism is a religion that attaches importance to Taoism, art, and practice, and not only attaches importance to the promotion of "Tao", but also actively advocates exercises and alchemy. A true Taoist disciple's practical grasp of the true meaning of Taoism lies in not only understanding its basic purpose or possessing its pious beliefs, but also training in Taoism, striving to accumulate Taoist skills, advancing day by day, and constantly deepening and purifying their faith. In this way, the agency of human activities and the adaptability of man and nature are fully emphasized. As the intermediary and coordinator of heaven and earth, man must not only conform to nature, but also restrain and guide natural changes to form all things. ”
He said, "What is the fourth? ”
Lu Dongbin said with a smile: "The fourth is the spirit of unity and difference. The spirit of unity and diversity in Taoism is inherited from the spirit of "harmony" in traditional ethics. The Taoist "Taiping Sutra" proposes that "the one who neutralizes all things is also the one who controls all things", and believes that things at all levels in nature and human society contain three basic elements: yin, yang, and harmony, which together form one thing, hence the name of the three concentrics. "There are three kinds of vitality: the sun, the yin, and the neutral. There are three forms: heaven, earth, and man. There are three heavens: the sun, the moon, and the stars, and the north pole is the middle. There are three names of the earth: mountains, rivers, and flat soils. There are three human beings: Father, Mother, and Son. There are three rulers: the king, the minister, and the people. 5 The three concentrics are the ideal peaceful world. The way of yin and yang embodies the will of heaven, so people must conform to the principle of yin and yang, and maintain the harmony between people and people, and between people and nature from all aspects, so as to eliminate disasters and differences, and strive for world peace. In order to achieve this goal, Taoism developed the idea of harmony in the belief system, the Danshu talisman, and the ritual norms. The combined and different ecological wisdom helps people realize the meaning of the diversity of all things in the world. By preserving the diversity of things, it is possible to achieve sustainable development. ”
Zhong Liquan said with a smile: "The fifth is the spirit of recycling. In terms of how to make effective use of nature, the traditional Chinese have established the goals of "big" and "long", and believe that in order to achieve this goal, people must have the virtue of neutrality, imitate heaven and earth, and use institutions to control people's infinite desires and not cause harm to nature and human beings. "Zhou Yi" pointed out two ways, one of which is "ninety-two Zhenji, Yizhong also." The second is "Zhongzheng Yitong." Heaven and earth are made at four o'clock, and moderation is used to control the world, so as not to harm wealth and people. Taoism has also developed a similar idea, emphasizing that the confirmation of life and the conditions for its existence is the wisdom of the sage, the virtue of the sage, and the karma of the sage, and that the ideal life world of man is a beautiful society in which the object and the self are the same, and that in such a society, life can be cyclical, continuous, and endless. Early Taoism believed that the immortals of ancient times, or born with wings, changed to fly, stood out from the nature of ordinary people, and even incarnated into alien shapes, like a finch turned into a clam, and a pheasant turned into a mirage. Later Taoism absorbed more humanistic and daily thoughts, and from the perspective of life cycle regeneration, it took "old but not decaying, prolonging long-term vision, and entering and exiting arbitrarily" as the way of immortals. ”
Lu Dongbin said with a smile: "Tan Qiao, a Taoist scholar in the Five Dynasties period, looked at the universe, life and society from the perspective of "transformation", and proposed: "Void God, deify Qi, Qi into form, form into essence, refine into Xuan, and Gu Xuan into ......" The prosperity of the whole life and society is in the process of change and unification. In terms of the concept of using materials, Taoism advocates that human beings should control their desires more and maintain the vitality and development vitality of all things, which is quite consistent with the concepts of traditional Chinese thought, such as entering the mountains and cutting forests according to the season, prohibiting the harvesting of woodwood, prohibiting the hunting of young animals and young birds, prohibiting the killing of fish and crabs, fishing without exhausting the water, and hunting without burning the forest. To get along with biological resources, people need to exchange materials. Material exchange is not a forcible appropriation, but an adaptation and adaptation to nature. ”
Chu said, "What is the sixth? ”
Zhong Liquan said with a smile: "Six is the spirit of integrating all things. Taoist thought has always regarded nature as a super-huge system full of life, in which everything is organically connected to each other, and the universe moves in its course, which is the intersection of time and space coordinates. From the beginning of Lao and Zhuang, we explore the mysteries of the village in order to reveal the overall relationship inherent in nature. Lao Tzu said: "The avenue is universal, and it can be left and right." All things persevere and survive, and success is not famous. Clothing all things without being the main, often no desire can be called small. All things are returned to the Lord, but they can be called great. It is not self-sufficient in the end, so it can become great. That is to say, the Tao nourishes all things like a vast river, without selfishness, without partiality, like a great mother, who loves all life, and all life is born by the nourishment of the Tao. We should treat the natural world with kindness, because fundamentally "man and heaven are the same". ”
