Chapter 7 What is the Tao (Black Powder Must See)
What is the Tao? In this chapter, let's put down the storyline first and talk about what the Tao is, so as not to have a passing book friend say that my book is too dark in the future.
I think that the Tao is to return to the most primitive state of life, and at the beginning of man, he does not care about the theory of good and evil nature, he is a pure man, but just like the French philosopher Rousseau said
"Man is born free, but he is always in chains." At the beginning of human beings, it is as pure as paper, but when you can remember and communicate with others, you will more or less experience a little warmth and coldness in the world, and all living beings will be in a variety of ways, can you still maintain your pure heart in this big dye vat?
That's hard to say. Therefore, the concept of Buddhism is to throw away external objects, in order to attain Bodhi, a bit like the Confucian sage, the Ming Dynasty philosopher Wang Yangming is a model, he put forward the famous Yangming four sentences before his death: no good and no disgusting body, there is good and malicious action, knowing good and knowing evil is conscience, and going to evil for good is a good thing.
Roughly speaking, the essence of the heart is crystal pure, without good or evil; But as soon as the mind is born, good and evil follow; The ability to distinguish between good and evil is what Mencius said
"conscience"; And one of the key points of Confucian theory --- Gewu, which is here
"Evil for good". It's really the finishing touch, simple and direct, not biased, not empty, and straight to the middle way.
Therefore, Buddhism has cause and effect, and Taoism also has the theory of cutting off the red dust. I still have a lot of opinions, so I won't go into them all here, if I want to say that I can write a book, so I will slowly describe it in the following content
