Chapter 31: The Unity of Knowledge and Action
"I hope the little brother stays, I want to ask for more advice on the formula of the square machine."
The voice is slightly low, but extremely calm, slow and magnetic.
Just listening to the voice, it is difficult to make people feel bad about the owner of this voice, even if he is very rude to pull your sleeve now.
How many times has this been?
How many times has this been pulled by the sleeve?
Xia Yuan felt that the people of the Ming Dynasty seemed to have the problem of pulling people's sleeves, it must be because the cuffs of this kind of straight jacket were too big, so I cut it when I turned around.
Deciding the fate of the sleeve, Xia Yuan moved his gaze from the sleeve to the person who spoke.
A lean-looking man, wearing a blue-gray gown, the style of the gown is somewhat like a robe, with a scarf on his head, and he may be in his twenties or thirties if he is old.
He has a short beard in his chin, his temples are slightly bulging, and the cheekbones on his face are also a little bulging, and the most striking thing is his eyes, which look very deep and wise, but he gives people the overall impression of being wooden and a little not very smart.
What a complicated temperament.
Xia Yuan looked this person up and down, and faintly had a little impression, when he was making his own calculations just now, this person seemed to have been watching from the side.
"Who are you?"
"My name is Wang Shouren."
Wang Shouren?
Selling thirteen incense?
Hearing this name, Xia Yuan inexplicably remembered the thirteen incense, eh, did there be thirteen incense in the Ming Dynasty?
Just thinking about it, suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he blurted out: "You are Wang Yangming, Wang Yangming who combines knowledge and action!" ”
“?”
Wang Shouren was stunned after hearing this, who is Wang Yangming, and what is this unity of knowledge and action?
Dong Zhongshu, Lu Xiangshan, Cheng Yi and other great Confucians all pursued knowledge first, and even Zhu Sheng also advocated and pursued this proposition, but this little minister said that knowledge and action are one.
Unity of knowledge and action?
Well, knowledge and action are one.
Wang Shouren couldn't help but start thinking about it, and when he heard these four words for the first time, he felt that they were inconsistent with the teachings of the sage, but when he chewed these four words carefully, he felt that they had a deep meaning.
There was even an irresistible magic that tricked him into thinking deeply.
But the more I thought about it, the more I sank in, and then I sank deeper and deeper.
"The unity of knowledge and action, the unity of knowledge and action, the unity of knowledge and action, the unity of knowledge and action....." Wang Shouren seemed to have lost his mind, at this time, he could no longer tolerate anything else in his eyes, in his eyes, there was nothing left in the whole heaven and earth, only those four words remained.
It was those four words that kept muttering in my mouth.
Knowledge and action are one.
"Brother Wang? Brother Wang? Wang Sage? Yomingko? ”
At this time, Xia Yuan was naturally overjoyed, the excitement in his heart was indescribable, he was still alive when he saw the saint.
It was only that he soon found out that something was not right, to be exact, it was Wang Shengren who was not quite right.
Xia Yuan waved his hand in front of the other party, changing several titles, but Wang Shouren's eyes were not focused, only his lips kept moving, muttering about the unity of knowledge and action, giving people the feeling of being stupid and stupid.
It is now the autumn of August in the fourteenth year of the Ming Dynasty, and there are still seven full years before Wang Yangming's dragon field enlightenment in history.
And at this point in time, Wang Shengren seems to be crazy.
What's more, it seems that I'm still driven crazy by myself.
I remember that this guy's father is the champion, and he is still quite a big official, he himself was admitted to the Jinshi two years ago, and now he is also an official.
That's it.... Embarrassed.
Xia Yuan took back his hand and looked left and right, although there were a lot of pedestrians coming and going at the door of the study, no one seemed to find out about the situation on his side, maybe he found it but didn't care.
After all, the two of them were standing facing each other, and there was no verbal quarrel or physical conflict.
"Brother Wang, the younger brother has left beforehand, you will go home early after basking in the sun, don't let your uncle and aunt wait, just like that, contact again."
Xia Yuan patted Wang Shengren's shoulder for a long time, said this to himself, and then turned around and left without looking back.
After walking away, he glanced back again, and through the crowd, between the shadows, he could faintly see that Wang Dasheng was still standing in place and did not move, not only did he not move, but he seemed to be laughing.
The laughter could be heard from so far away.
It's over, it's crazy.
Xia Yuan covered his face silently and made evil.
In the future, I will also leave my name in history, leave a strong mark in the history books, in the autumn of the fourteenth year of Hongzhi in the Ming Dynasty, on the eve of the township test, I said two words to Wang Yangming, and then went crazy to the saint.
Hey, people are crazy, can they still become saints?
That's right, how can people who are crazy be saints.
That is to say.....
He has made sin even more.
Fuck, I've got to get out of here.
.................
"Hahaha, wonderful, wonderful, the unity of knowledge and action, what a unity of knowledge and action!"
At the door of the study, Wang Shouren was indeed laughing like a madman at this time, attracting the pedestrians around him to stop and cast strange glances at him.
But Wang Dasheng was unconscious, and still laughed as if no one was around.
The unity of knowledge and action, the unity of knowledge and action!
Knowing comes first, and prophetic comes later.
After the prophet, before the first know.
No, it's not right, it's all wrong, it's too one-sided.
Only the unity of knowledge and action, knowing in action, and acting in knowledge.
That's the best thing to say!
These four words are like a key that opens the door to a new world, and behind that door is an extremely vast world.
Although there is nothing in this heaven and earth, it will never collapse, because these few words are enough to be the pillar of this heaven and earth.
Wang Shouren felt that a new world beckoned to him.
In this way, it seems that the exhaustive rationality of things can also be seen and transparent.
That's why...
Not....
Wang Shouren began to groan again.
Where's the reason?
What is the reason?
Since it is the unity of knowledge and action, this principle .....
"Dare to ask Mr. Xiao ..... this reason"
It was difficult to figure it out for a while, Wang Shouren bowed deeply with a solemn face, and put on a posture of sincere and sincere advice, and even the title in his mouth became Mr. Xiao, but as soon as he bent down, he was suddenly stunned, "Hey, what about people?" ”
Where are the people?
