Chapter 286: Good is easy to predict

Xu Wuyi took the lead in making a difficulty, and talked eloquently: "Xu also reads "Yi". Although Yi is obscure and difficult to understand, it is very easy for people to grasp, but it is generally recognized that it has four functions: image, number, reason, and account. ”

"In my opinion, an image is an appearance, a phenomenon. From astronomy and geography, to the world, to face and palmistry, all are images. ”

"The so-called observation of astronomy is to observe the changes of time. ”

The original meaning of text is pattern, that is, pattern. Astronomy is the trick of the sky, and humanity is all the tricks that people play with. ”

"The so-called view of humanity and the transformation of the world into the world is for culture. ”

And all phenomena must be observed and analyzed by the human mind. ”

"Let's talk about it. ”

"Counting is not arithmetic, it is dead, and counting is not a fixed number, it refers to the final result, which is also dead. Numbers are the process of change. ”

Since number is a process that changes all the time, it is also up to the human mind to observe and analyze. ”

"And then there's the reason".

"Reason is reasoning, reasoning, and it is the most rigorous and logical thing that needs to be rigorous and logical. The so-called natural and inevitable - do according to the reason, follow the reason, and the result should be like that. ”

"Reasoning is called an unpredictable prophet, and reason and reasoning should be inductive and deductive by the human mind."

"I agree with all three. The last one is in doubt. ”

"Divination, in layman's terms, is fortune telling. I wondered, pinched my fingers and figured out the fate and the future, whether it was good or bad, and often claimed that the iron mouth was straight and effective. ”

"Isn't this child's play? Isn't that superstition? How can there be thinking and intelligent analysis of the heavenly machine hexagram?"

When Xu Wuyi stopped, Lin Xian immediately picked up and said: "Brother Xu only knows one thing, but he doesn't know the other, and he has committed the taboo of a scholar who swallows dates and does not seek to understand." ”

"It is precisely because there are too many people like you that the I Ching, a classic philosophy of heaven and earth, has long been misunderstood as a book of divination and fortune-telling, how ridiculous, ridiculous, and sad. ”

"Superstition? The word superstition, placed in front of the letter, explains what superstition isβ€”whatever the belief is, it is almost as good as the belief is just right. Fascinated, overdone, and overly believing, it is called superstition. ”

"Hexagrams are auspicious and vicious, so many people think that the I Ching advocates fatalism. This is a big mistake. ”

"One of the most commonly used words in the Book of Changes is if, if, ifβ€”the good fortune and evil of Yi are conditional. ”

"The warlocks and liars love to be straight-hearted, that's for the fee, otherwise there is no result if they are only reasonable, who is willing to pay for fortune telling?"

"It is true that in ancient times the I Ching was used for divination, but that was conditional. ”

"First, most of them only ask questions about national affairs. For example, whether to start a war, whether the wind and rain will be smooth, the country and the people will be safe, and whether there will be major changes. At that time, it was not considered personal future and self-interest. ”

"Second, divination is generally done when there is no other way or means to make decisions. If you think carefully and try your best, you can make a choice when you still have a hard time choosing, but when you have a clear and firm direction, you can't do divination. ”

Third, the results of divination are for reference only, and are not to be followed in a distorted manner. The divination results before King Wu was unlucky, and Jiang Taigong said that how could the yarrow and turtle shells be believed, which made the 800-year world of Zhou Tianzi later. ”

Xu Wuyi asked, "Ridiculous." Divination and fortune telling, not used to know the result of good luck and repentance, before divination, you have to think clearly, so what is the use?

Lin Xian shook his head in shock: "Brother Wujiao, you have great talent, you must know that when you do things alone, when you ask about the result, the motive is not pure, and you want the result directly, which is not in line with the natural truth." ”

"A tree, it can grow as long as it can, and it doesn't think about how big it can grow in the future, how tall it will grow, and what shape it will grow into, otherwise it would rather not grow at all. ”

"Because, when you grow up, the most likely result is to be cut off by a few axes to make utensils, how sad it is, what will it grow?

"What is the result of asking? Asking and asking, in the end it is a dead word, mortals cannot escape, the emperors of the ages have not heard of ten thousand years old, even immortals, can not live with the sky. ”

"The ancients said that heroes are not judged by success or failure. Wusheng Guan Gong is the most typical case. How can Wu Caishen succeed? At the beginning, he was from a humble background, and in the end, he was defeated and left Maicheng, and he also fled many times in the middle, and let Cao Cao go for the sake of face. ”

"People worship Master Guan because he has set a value model for the world in the direction of loyalty and righteousness that is worth working on. ”

"The sixty-four hexagrams of Fuxi just tell you what kind of situation you are in now, and what you should pay attention to at this time, so that you can be vigilant, you can seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and of course you will gain after divination. ”

Therefore, the I Ching is not used for divination, not for predicting the outcome. ”

"I Ching and divination are like dictionaries, they are used to look up, and then you will have one more reference, one more possible path, and one more choice that is more in line with images, numbers, and reason. ”

Xu Wuyi continued to ask: "The Book of Changes has said many times: Since God blesses it, there is no disadvantage. If your fate is good and you are good, you don't need to work hard, and if you have a pig's brain, what's the use of learning and wisdom?"

Lin Xian was shocked: "I'll just hehe." Will God bless a person with all the best?"

"God is not stupid at all, who dares to say that the old man is stupid? God will not bless him, you will not be able to take care of the left, you will not be able to take care of the right, you need to rain, others are too waterlogged, so how can you bless him? You are partial, it is unfair. It's rain or wind, whatever you want, whatever you like. ”

"God blesses it, and there is no disadvantage. The self here is the meaning of oneself, not the meaning of oneself - you work your own, and the genius may help you. ”

"Asking God and worshiping Buddha is a necessary form and ritual in the belief - who doesn't have some flowers and plants in their home and arrange some decorative items? Isn't the big fan in your hand also a kind of decoration, a personal sign and image representation?"

"But if it works if you pay more prayers and make more offerings, what is the difference between it and bribery? In that case, won't the gods and Buddhas become corrupt officials?"

"God wouldn't do such a thing. If you do it well, God will help you by the way according to the laws of nature; if you don't do it well, God will clean you up sooner or later according to the laws of nature. The law of nature is the Tao, which is a cyclical law. So much for. ”

Xu Wuyi sneered: "Kong Sheng and Yasheng have both read Yi and understood Yi, what is it? Good and easy to be uncertain!

Lin Xian retorted: "The words of the two saints are just uncertain and uncertain. What does it mean, Confucius and Mencius did not reject divination and fortune-telling, but advised people not to fully believe and rely on it. ”

"Confucius understands both easy and easy to use, if he can't and doesn't use it, with his cultivation and knowledge, how can he have the confidence and qualifications to evaluate and negate divination?"

"Besides, Confucius wrote about Yi and said that we should be cautious, because this thing is sometimes accurate, sometimes not. Some things are likely to happen, and some things are small probability. ”

"The Book of Changes tells us that everything is conditional, that everything has yin and yang, and that it is both inside and outside, and that it is always changing. When the prediction is a result, the situation will change after the prediction. ”

"Kong Sheng is saying, don't use this thing often, it's okay to play with it if necessary. ”

"If you want to divination, you need to think carefully and have a rough answer before divining and calculating it. The end result is to lead you to think further. One more hexagram, one more direction. With a few more hexagrams, people will be able to think more thoughtfully, and they will not be dominated by emotions, and the probability of making mistakes will be lower. ”

Many of the words of the prophets have been misinterpreted by the passage of time. ”

"Worship ghosts and gods and stay away. It is to respect and keep a certain distance, not to keep away, to abandon, to reject, to hate ghosts and gods. ”

"Many families have ancestral halls and temples, so don't go to worship every day. The ancestors have not been the family boss for many years, and they still talk to others every day, so you don't bother others. However, on special days such as festival days and Qingming, you can go to worship. ”

"It's not so much for the ancestors to see, it's actually for the living. It means to tell the children of the next generation, when I die, you will come to worship, and after you die, your children will come to worship. After the death of the next generation, it will be offered here, and future generations will come to worship. ”

"Because, this is the place where the family spirit formed by our ancestors is inherited. Each tablet represents the experience and lessons passed down from generation to generation, and the family style, family rules, and family motto formed by the accumulation of blood and glory. ”

Xu Wuyi continued to ask: "Even you said that fortune-telling is a matter of the probability of calculation, the time is not accurate, and it may change if it is accurate, so it is still a ball." ”

Lin Xian exclaimed: "Hmm, maybe you still want to count? Of course, you can't count it! If you calculate it, it's still a fart, just lie there and wait." ”

"When?"

"When the information is incomplete and the conditions are limited, when the situation is hesitant and in a dilemma. And, be honest and calm, and only ask one specific thing at a time. In the end, it's about asking how it should be, not what the outcome should be. In this way, we can induce the heavens to hook cause and effect and get the closest answer. ”

"Sixty-four hexagrams, strictly speaking, there is no good or bad. ”

"Hexagram hanging, as the name suggests, divination is to draw out the portraits of yourself in different periods and circumstances and hang them up. β€œ

"People are self-aware, and the so-called bystanders are confused by the authorities. It is easy for people to look at others, but it is most difficult to look at themselves. When you do a good job, that is, hang the self-portrait of the present on the wall, and take a good look at it yourself, as if you look at others outside the world, it will be easier to have a clear, sober and clear understanding of your current situation to guide the future. ”

Xu Wuyi: "Brother Lin's eloquence, Xu admires it, and he has said a thousand things, why don't you give me a hexagram for the next measurement of the heavens?"

Lin Xian was shocked: "My hexagram gold is very expensive, and now you and I don't know whether you are friends or foes, so it's better to be free." But I can send you a few words for free. ”

"Xu is not guilty. Your blamelessness is actually a statement of Yi's ultimate pursuit, easy to seek blamelessness, not good fortune. ”

"Think about it, what about good fortune? Not only is there a murderer hidden in the auspicious world, but it will be even more fierce after the great fortune, and at the same time it will be gained, it will pay and lose something, and no one can always only take advantage of it and not suffer losses. ”

"No blame, no blame. The correct explanation is: as long as you do the right thing, even if there is a small mistake or mistake, others will easily understand and forgive you, and it will not cause a big disaster to come. ”

"Blamelessness is the timely pleasure after the moderation, and blamelessness is acceptance and reluctance after doing your best. Yes, I tried my best in the process, and as a result, I, did not force it. ”

Regarding whether fate can be cracked, whether to accept fate or make fate, Lin Xianjing and Xu Wuyi are both eloquent people, and the two of them are arguing, you come and go, without pause, and sprinkled.
