Chapter 114 Chapter 114: My doubts about the saint (2)

Now in a remote area, there is a person who occasionally gets a little wealth. Those who talk about cause and effect say that he has accumulated a lot of evil skills; those who talk about Feng Shui say that his grave is well buried; different.I think the people's hearts in ancient times were similar to those of today, and there were probably people who talked about cause and effect. When they saw those emperors who established the foundation and established a country, they must say how good their conduct and morals were. material.At the same time, mortals have self-views, and with prejudices in their hearts, what they see in their eyes will change their image.A person with green glasses sees everything green; a person with yellow glasses sees everything yellow.The people of Zhou and Qin created a kind of theory, and observed the ancients with their own eyes, and the ancients would naturally change their shapes and forms, which was just in line with his theory.

We have the right to study Dayu among the saints.He has no humerus, no hair on his shin, especially the head of the head, his color is limo, he seems to be a loving family with his heels on his head.Han Feizi said: "The princes of the Yu Dynasty were in Kuaiji, and the king of the Fangfeng clan came later and Yu beheaded him." He became a great legalist who enforced the law like a mountain.Confucius said: "Yu, I am inseparable. Fei eats and eats to make filial piety to ghosts and gods, bad clothes to make beauty like a crown, and humble palace to do his best." It seems to be a Xun Confucian, with a bit of inhabiting atmosphere.After reading the Wei and Jin Dynasties, his behavior is similar to that of Cao Pi and Liu Yu.Song Confucianism said that he had received Wei Wei Jing's heart transmission, and he became a Neo Confucianist who analyzed meaning and reason in the slightest.Miscellaneous books say that he married Tu Shan's daughter, and he is a vixen, as if he was a son and scholar in "Liao Zhai"; , to drive away gods and monsters, and it's a bit like Sun Xingzhe in "Fengshen Bang" and Jiang Ziya in "Fengshen Bang".According to the author's point of view, he first forgets his family and enemies, then seizes the enemy's world, and finally drives the enemy to death in Cangwuzhiye. He is simply an important figure in the thick black school.He's such a strange person, it's really inexplicable.The rest of the sages were similar in their mysteries to Dayu's.After a little thought, we can understand the inside story of the saint.Because the sage is a figure formed by the fantasies of later generations, and each person's fantasies are different, so the shapes of the sages are different.

I made a book, and it is consistent from the present to the Qin and Han Dynasties, and then to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, which is also consistent. It can be seen that from the Spring and Autumn Period to today, the psychology of ordinary people is the same.Going back to Yao, Shun, Yu, Tang, Wen, Wu, Zhou Gong, I feel that their psychology is unpredictable, all of which are the prevailing principles of heaven, but only the essence, which is not applicable to the thick black school.Everyone says that the hearts of the three generations of inferiors are not old. It seems that the hearts of the three generations above are separated from those of the three generations below. Isn't it strange?Not surprising.If the Wenjing era, like Emperor Wudi of the Han Dynasty, deposed all schools of thought, and left Lao Tzu alone as a saint, the Yellow Emperor whom Lao Tzu respected was of course a saint, so among the common people, only Lao Tzu was a saint. Among the founding kings, only the Yellow Emperor is a saint.Lao Tzu's heart is subtle and mysterious, deep and unfathomable.The heart of the Yellow Emperor is also subtle and mysterious, deep and unrecognizable.Its politics are boring, and its people are honest.After the Yellow Emperor, people's hearts are not the same as before: Yao took the world of his elder brother, Shun took the world of his wife, Yu took the world of his enemies, Tang Wenwu used his ministers to betray the emperor, and the Duke of Zhou used his brothers to kill his brothers.My book is reversible until Yao and Shun, the hearts of the three generations above and the hearts of the three generations below are integrated into one.Reluctantly going back further, the people's hearts of the Yellow Emperor's time and the people's hearts of Yao and Shun later still have to become two parts.

If Lao Tzu met like Confucius and became a sage bestowed by the imperial court, I think Meng Ke’s sub-sage title would definitely be taken away by Zhuang Zi. The four books we read must be Lao Tzu, Zhuang Zi, Lie Zi, and Guan Yin Zi , the scriptures you read must be "Laozi", "Liezi" and "Guan Yinzi", and the scriptures you read must be "Lingshu Suwen".The books of Confucius and Mencius, together with the books of Guan Shang Shen Han, became heresies and were put on the shelf. However, when I met curious people, I occasionally read them. , The monthly order is juxtaposed.People's hearts are only in danger of the sixteen characters, and if they are mixed with the old sayings, there will be no subtlety or mystery.People who preach Taoism in later generations will definitely study deeply in the Tao Te Ching, the gate of Xuan and Min, and will definitely create various terms such as Tianxuan, Renxuan, Limaiyuyu, and discuss with each other.In my opinion, the truth of the saint is nothing more than this.

Confucianism, based on benevolence and righteousness, established a general rule that those who practice benevolence and justice will prosper, and those who do not practice benevolence and justice will perish.The success or failure of ancient and modern times, those who can meet this general rule, will be cited as evidence, and those who do not meet this general rule will be ignored.For example, Tai Shigong's "Yin Benji" said: "The return of Xibo is Yin to cultivate virtue and do good." "Zhou Benji" said: "Xibo Yin does good." Its role can be imagined. "The Family of Qi" said more bluntly: "Zhou Xibochang's escape from the land and his return, and Lu Shang conspired with Lu Shang to cultivate morality in order to devote himself to business and politics. There are many military powers and tricks." It can be seen that King Wen's behavior of benevolence and justice is obviously a kind of power. It is sincerely for the people.When the Confucians saw that King Wen had achieved success, they held him in high esteem.King Xu Yan practiced benevolence and righteousness, and the vassal dynasties of the Eastern Han Dynasty had thirty-six kingdoms. King Wen of Jing hated it and harmed himself, so he raised his troops to destroy it.This is a failure of practicing benevolence and righteousness, and Confucians never mention it.Their arguments are exactly the same as those in the countryside who talk about karma. When someone is rich, they say he has accumulated evil virtues. When someone dies from electric shock, they say he is disobedient.Pushing its original intention is to persuade people to do good, but the real truth is not like that.
