Chapter 89 Chapter 89 The Cultural Philosophy of Stretching

The traditional form of the word stretch, written as "stretch", is composed of a twisted silk, a mountain and a friend. Rotten twisted silk refers to soft silk fabric, which was a very expensive material in ancient times. Ordinary people could not afford to wear it. Even monarchs and nobles only wore it on specific public occasions to show their majesty. The ancient form of the character "Peng" is two shells juxtaposed together.Seashells are only interested in children, collectors and marine biologists. Ordinary people don't know that shells are ancient currency.If a person in ancient times could get a string of shells to hang around his neck, then he would win the hearts of countless primitive women, because this marked that he was a rich man in ancient times.

Silk fabric is a symbol of social status, while shells are a symbol of wealth. What does the combination of these two things herald? Foreshadows violence, bloodshed and war.Because whether it is a high social status, or a box full of shells that is incomparably rich, these things are the goals that people desperately want to obtain.Throughout the ages, around power and money, is a bloody history.Compared with getting rich through hard work and getting ahead through hard work, it is far less efficient than cutting down with a knife. When it comes to bleeding for power, the most tragic thing is that after Qin Shihuang established a highly centralized central government, his youngest son Qin II took over. The first thing after taking office was to send all his brothers and sisters, the prince He and the princesses were all led to the market like dogs, and the car was torn to death.The reason why Qin Er Shi was so cruel to his relatives of the same blood was that only these people were the biggest threat to his power.

When it comes to shedding blood for wealth, it is even more impossible to win one by one.You must know that 99% of the contradictions and conflicts between people are caused by money.All the negative psychology and emotions that people feel in this society, such as oppression, depression, sadness and pain, are not related to money.Everyone wants to get other people's money, and everyone wants to prevent others from taking their own money away. This universal mentality of worrying about gain and loss constitutes the inevitable conflict and pain. Therefore, whether the power represented by silk fabrics or the wealth represented by shells has a high-risk performance, not only may it be snatched away by others at any time, but it will inevitably drag down one's own life.So, what should be done to keep the power and money in hand, but also ensure the safety of property and life?

The word "mountain" at the top of the word "strength" comes out in response, showing us a simple and profound basic common sense of society.If you want to keep the power and money in your own hands, you must rely on the wisdom of the mountain. What are the characteristics of mountains?Unmoving as a mountain, as stable as a mountain, as calm as a mountain, as thick as a mountain without being exposed.The characteristic of the mountain is that it is calm and expressionless, the surface is rough and rugged, no matter how trees grow, beasts fight, birds gather, butterflies dance and flowers are fragrant, the mountain never expresses any attitude.But under this extremely inconspicuous kindness, there are countless treasures hidden in the mountain. Anyone who wants to take even a single stone from the mountain will need to pay a lot of hard work.

Therefore, "strength" was originally not a single word, but a whole philosophy of life. If anyone can understand the secret hidden in this word, he can not only gain power and money, but also gain supreme honor and wealth. In happiness, get the most enviable beautiful life. For this "strength", Confucius, the ancestor of thick black, was the most thorough, so he earnestly taught later generations: "If a gentleman is not serious, he will not be powerful, and if he learns, he will not be solid." If you are a strict person, if you cannot be as solemn and calm as a mountain, then you will have no dignity in the eyes of others. In this case, let alone gaining power and money, you can even communicate with others and learn a little social law , are all difficult.

As solemn and quiet as a mountain, it is firstly reflected in a person's external behavior, that is, he must always keep a straight face and be serious.This face is not for people who understand the truth, but for many people who lack knowledge and have an empty heart. These people have a common characteristic, they are not inferior if they are close, and they will complain if you are far away-you get close to them, They are not big or small, kicking your nose and crawling towards your face.You alienate them, and they resent you, accusing you of not taking them seriously.And this kind of people can't see your inner world, can't realize the power of thought and personality, and the superficial phenomenon means everything to them.So you need to put on a straight face and let them be horrified, thinking that you are a great big shot, so that they dare not play bad ideas with the power in your hand and the money in your pocket.

As solemn and quiet as a mountain, it must finally be implemented in the depths of your heart, which is reflected in your mature personality.Only when a person has a mature personality will he have the great wisdom to penetrate the world and people's hearts, and he will be able to serve the society and at the same time earn corresponding returns for his efforts.If there is only an unsmiling appearance, but restlessness in the heart, it is the so-called silver gun and wax head, which is the most untrue chapter. The word "strength" contains a broad and profound ideological power. It not only tells us the secret method of retaining power and money, but also conveys the important rules and concepts of life happiness.As long as we can understand this truth, we will know that whenever you ponder this word carefully, you will be able to obtain spiritual sublimation and peace.
