Chapter 2 the second part

complex The second thing to understand is that we often say that something is complicated, and the etymology of this complexity is the origin, and its scope is too wide.The meaning of these four characters refers to hexagram change. We often say that someone changes hexagram. What about "no five no six" or "no one no two"? The phrase "no three no four" comes from a basis.Because of the truth, the third line and the fourth line of the hexagram are the most important. These two lines are in the middle of the hexagram, and they are also the center.Another example is "chaotic", which comes from the hexagrams of Youhun and Guihun. Chinese people quote words everywhere, but they don't know it.

What do wrong hexagrams and comprehensive hexagrams mean? What does the intricacies of the hexagram mean?Now let’s talk about the comprehensive hexagram first. In order to make it easier for everyone to see the pattern of the eight trigrams, let’s take the Qian hexagram as an example to illustrate: The first line of the Kouqian hexagram becomes the Kou Nv Hou Gua. If you turn this hexagram upside down, or place it flat on the table and stand on the opposite side to look at it, it becomes the Kou (jue right) hexagram, which is the Nv Hou Gua. comprehensive hexagram.The comprehensive hexagram is relative, all sixty-four hexagrams, except for the eight hexagrams, there is nothing non-relative, this comprehensive hexagram is an image, and the principle of the comprehensive hexagram tells us to be objective in everything, because different positions have completely different concepts .In addition, there are eight hexagrams that are absolute, no matter viewed unilaterally or relatively, they are all the same. Yes, it is also absolute, the Kan hexagram is absolute, the Kou Li hexagram is also absolute, the other Kou Da Guo, Kou Xiao Guo, Kou Yi, and Kou Zhong Fu are also absolute. The sixteen hexagrams are all relative, which shows that everything in the universe is relative, which is the principle of the comprehensive hexagram.

Wrong hexagrams mean wrong yin and yang lines, and the principle of wrong hexagrams is that they have the same standpoint and the same goal, but they see things differently from different angles.Such as: In Tianfengnvhou hexagram, its first line is Yin line, and the remaining five lines are Yang line, so after the error of Yin and Yang lines, it becomes: In this way, the first line is Yang line, and the other five lines are Yin lines, such as the above hexagram image, its outer hexagram is Kun, Kun is earth, the inner hexagram is earthquake, earthquake is thunder, it is the hexagram of thunder, so the sky The right and wrong hexagrams of the Fengnvhou hexagram are Dileifu hexagrams.Sixty-four hexagrams, each hexagram has a right or wrong hexagram.Therefore, after learning, look at life with the principles of truth, every move, there are opposites, pros and cons, intertwined, there is success and there is frustration, some people agree and some people oppose, the physics of human affairs must be like this, and it cannot be separated from this universe. in principle.

To explain it with the current concept, the comprehensive hexagram can be called opposite or relative, and the wrong hexagram can be called right and right.Some people say that Hegel's dialectical thinking is always there, and what he said is that positive, negative, and combined are the principles of truth. This is nonsense.The Chinese people are very pitiful now. When talking about their own culture, they have to compare it with Western culture.We are the same as Einstein, why not say that Einstein is the same as us?It is unreasonable to insist on comparing the grandfather with the grandson, saying that the grandfather is very similar to the grandson, which is very pitiful!Why such a comparison?They say that Hegel's positive, negative, and compound are syllogisms, but I tell them that they are octologs. Compared with Hegel, it seems very rough, so it's nothing!Seeing things is exquisite.Now that I have looked around, I still use the Gua Tian Feng Nv Hou Gua as the saying. Peeling, isn't this looking at all sides, so the mind, when dealing with a matter for the first time, must pay attention to all sides, not only to pay attention to all sides, but also to be exquisite in all directions.

complicated truth There is another reason—complexity, which is equal to the principle of mutual hexagrams. We all pay attention to mutual assistance.What is "interaction"?It is the internal change of the six lines. For example, the second line is connected to the fourth line, and the bottom line is connected to the top line to form a mutual relationship. Different, the depth and inner nature of each hexagram have undergone interactive changes, and hexagrams have been produced.In other words, it tells us to look at things, not to be exhausted, not to just look at one side, look at the front of a thing, then look at the back side, look at the back side, and then look at the side clearly, and at the same time look at the back side, so that I have noticed all sides, but it is not complete, because there are still internal changes, and the internal changes have given birth to another hexagram.Except for the two hexagrams Qian and Kun, other hexagrams take out the center to interact, which has changed another phenomenon.This phenomenon itself has comprehensive hexagrams and wrong hexagrams, which means looking at things from eight sides, plus the next ten sides, so it is really unfair to compare the ancestors with people like Hegel.

Now let's make a conclusion, why did Yu Shinan in the Tang Dynasty say that he can't be a general if he doesn't learn "Yi"?Imagine that after we understand the method of reciting gossip and the intricate principles, we know that the pattern is so tightly organized, telling us that we must have such a careful mind when looking at things, and we must be so calm and objective to see things clearly.Knowing this, Yu Shinan can understand if he can't be a general if he doesn't study "Yi". Interactive Gua Now let’s talk about interactive hexagrams, taking the fire and thunder as an example to explain as follows:

If the second line, the third line, and the fourth line of the Chee Ke hexagram are combined together, it will become the Gen hexagram representing the three mountains. This is the mutual hexagram of the Chee Ke hexagram.Then, the third line of the Chee Ke Gua is handed over to the fourth and fifth lines, and it becomes the Kan Gua that represents water three times, which is the Yao Gua of the Che Ke Gua.Overlapping the third hexagram of Yao and the third hexagram of the hexagram Cheating, it becomes the hexagram Kou Shui Shan Jian, so we know that the interactive hexagram of hexagram Cheating is the hexagram Jian, as shown in the diagram:

As for complexity, Fu is the same as Zong Gua, which means repetition. Miscellaneous refers to the mutual relationship between each other. The sixty-four hexagrams can be developed into countless hexagrams. Each hexagram affects the whole body. It is a mutual relationship . Let me tell you another interesting thing, the last hexagram of the sixty-four hexagrams and the eight palace hexagrams is Lei Ze Guimei, and the last hexagram of the hexagram sequence in "Zhouyi" is the mouth of fire and water. The universe began, and life will always be unfinished at the end, with a beginning and no end, and no conclusion, so after learning, no one can draw a conclusion.History has no conclusions, life has no conclusions, and the universe has no conclusions. After grasping this philosophy, the principles of research will come out.

The arrangement of the sixty-four hexagrams in Zhouyi is not in the order of the eight palace hexagrams.Its order is an academic thought system sorted out by Zhou Wenwang Research Institute. Later generations compiled it into a rhyme song called "Song of the Order of Hexagram Names in Shangxiajing", which helps us to remember easily.We need to understand and know how to use it, knowing astronomy at the top and geography at the bottom, so that everything can be predicted.It is very important to memorize the order of the eight palace hexagrams mentioned above, because all the uses are there.It is naturally very difficult for beginners to recite these, but there is no way not to recite them if you want to learn.

Diagram of the sixty-four hexagrams The next second stage is more difficult, that is, the study of the sixty-four hexagrams, the radius and the two diagrams. This is a very wonderful thing. No one told us when we learned these two diagrams. Tell everyone, it will be easy to learn. There is a square circle of Fuxi Xiantian hexagram on the next page, which is very important. This square and circle diagram, the circle diagram is in charge of the time of the universe, representing the laws of the universe, and it can also be said to represent the laws or principles of the time operation of the solar system. The square in the circle diagram governs the space and represents the direction. This is the secret of the predecessors up.

square diagram Let me talk about the square diagram first. The bottom line on the right is the Guaqian hexagram. We look at it from the bottom up. Why do we look at it from the bottom first?The hexagrams and lines of the eight trigrams are drawn from the bottom up, so this square diagram is also viewed from the bottom up. Therefore, the second hexagram above the Qian hexagram is Huangtian Zelu, the third hexagram is Koutianhuo Tongren, and the fourth hexagram is Koutian Lei Wuwang, the fifth hexagram is the Empress of Tianfeng, the sixth hexagram is Tianshui, the seventh hexagram is Tianshan Dun, and the eighth hexagram is Heaven and Earth.This is just an example. If it is not to save time, I will go on line by line and hexagram by hexagram. Now I am just telling you a method. As mentioned earlier, the numbers in the Xiantian hexagram are Qianyi, Duier, Lisan, Zhensi, Gongwu, Kanliu, Genqi, and Kunba.Then we look from the bottom to the top of the first line of the square diagram, all eight hexagrams, the upper hexagram of each hexagram, that is, the outer hexagram, is the sky, that is, the Qian hexagram, and the lower hexagram of each hexagram, that is, the outer hexagram. The internal hexagrams are all combined in accordance with the order of the innate hexagrams Qian, Dui, Li, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Min, and Kun, so they form the eighth forms of Qian, Lu, Tongren, Wuwang, Nuhou, Li, Dun, and No. A heavy hexagram. Let's start from the Qian hexagram again, and look at the horizontal hexagrams from right to left. Analyzing the inner and outer hexagrams of these eight heavy hexagrams, we can find that the inner hexagrams are all Qian hexagrams, while the outer hexagrams from right to left are Qian, Dui, Li, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Gen, and Kun, which are also Xiantian hexagrams. The order of hexagrams. If it is represented by numbers, the straight line is 1, 1 is 1, 2 is 1, 3 is innocent 1, 4 is queen 1, 5 is 1, 6 is 1, 7 is 1, 8.Row dry 1, 1 (decision right) 2, 1 has 3, 1 is strong 4, 1 small animal 5, 1 needs 6, 1 large animal 7, 1 Tai 8, 1.Illustrated as follows: Number map of sixty-four hexagrams The square diagram of the sixty-four hexagrams has infinite changes.This graph should be understood.In the past, scholars learned gossip, so they could predict the foretelling. When they encountered difficulties in doing things, if someone was surrounded by heavy soldiers, when there was no other way, they could use this square diagram to calculate divination, find the most favorable position, and break out of the encirclement safely.There are many stories like this in history, but everyone refuses to tell the reason.For example, the room you are currently in can also be divided into sixty-four hexagrams, and it can be calculated that at a certain time, it is most beneficial to be in a certain position.Everywhere, there is a Tai Chi, even a tape recorder, a book, there is a Tai Chi.For example, this book can be known when and where it broke.This is only based on a number, a principle of a phenomenon, plus time and space factors, and the answer can be found.Therefore, the prophets in ancient Chinese culture can know the future. It is only a very precise calculation method, but it still depends on people to calculate correctly. The numbers in this square diagram, one vertical and one horizontal, gradually go up, forming such an intricate relationship.But at the same time, it also tells us that everything in the universe seems to be very complicated, but after understanding it, from the point of view, any messy thing has its laws.In other words, after understanding the principles, when dealing with people and doing things, the most complicated problems will not be regarded as complicated, but the key can be found, and the problem will be solved with a single tap on the key .If you don't understand this principle, the more you do it, the more confused you will become, just like this square circle, it feels very messy. circle chart The circular diagram surrounding this square diagram is also the sixty-four hexagrams. Where do we start to look at it?This is even more troublesome, it is our compass, full of gossip, I don't know what's on it.In fact, this is also a matter of law. The circle represents time, and when matched with the square diagram representing space, a certain space will work at a certain time.For example, a factory produces 10,000 cups a day, and one of them is sold to a certain place. On a certain day, it happens to pour tea for a visiting head of state. The other place may be used to put dirty things.In this "maybe", there is actually a fixed rule, which is transferred in this circle diagram. So how are the sixty-four hexagrams of this circle arranged?We look at the first hexagram on the top left of the circle diagram is the Guaqian hexagram, and then look at the first hexagram on the bottom right is the Gua Kun. There is a line between Qian and Kun, which represents the Milky Way in the night sky. Represent the magnetic field of the earth's south pole and north pole, and then arrange the circle diagram.First, use the eight hexagrams Qian, Fu, Dayou, Dazhuang, Xiaohu, Need, Dahu, and Tai in the first horizontal row at the bottom of the square diagram, and place them on the top of the circle in order, starting from the left, and moving forward in the original order. Sort left.In the second step, arrange the Lu hexagrams of the eight hexagrams Lu, Dui, Kui, Guimei, Mid-breast Festival, Loss, and Lin in the second horizontal row immediately after the Tai hexagrams, and arrange them in the original order, and then place the third hexagrams 1. Each hexagram in the fourth row is arranged according to this method, and finally the complex hexagram is close to the left side of the lower end of the midline. This is the first step, and it is arranged into a half circle on the left. Then the second step is to arrange the half circle on the right, and the order of arrangement is different. How is it arranged?Now instead of starting from the fifth horizontal row, start from the eighth horizontal row, and connect the eight hexagrams of No, Ge, Jin, Yu, Guan, Bi, Bo, and Kun to the back of the Fu hexagram in reverse order, that is, still In the direction of the anti-clock face, they are arranged in the order of Fu, Kun, Peo, Bi, Guan, Yu, Jin, Ge, and No.But special attention should be paid to drawing hexagrams, the inner hexagrams should be drawn in the inner circle, and the outer hexagrams should be drawn in the outer circle, and there must be no mistakes.After the eighth row is arranged, use the seventh row and follow the arrangement method of the eighth row, with the Qian hexagram connected behind the No hexagram, Chengfu, Qian, Gen, Jian, Jian, Xiaoguo, Lv, Xian, The anti-clock face order of Dun, the sixth horizontal row and the fifth horizontal row, are the same. The female empress hexagram in the fifth horizontal row has just received the first Qian hexagram, and the arrangement of this circle diagram is completed.The teachers in the past were unwilling to tell this method, or they didn’t know it themselves, but those who learned it suffered a lot.Let me tell you now, it will be clear at a glance. If you understand this law, in the future, besides using TV or computer, you can apply this law to all phenomena in the universe, and the teaching method taught in the past will make people trapped in it for a lifetime. No, some people learn it really well, but they don’t know how to apply it. Before we study, we have to get these things done first, and then start to talk about the theoretical aspects, so we will not study these principles for the time being. The Sixteen Hexagrams of Jingfang Now let’s talk about the changing method of hexagrams. This method is used in divination and the prediction of personnel. It was first established in Jingjiaoyi in the Han Dynasty. It was passed from Jiaogan to Jingfang, and later evolved into the divination method of various schools. The system of Jingjiaoyi also came from Confucius.In addition to the ten wings of Confucius's "Book of Changes" and "Xi Zhuan", it is also passed on to Shang Zhai. "Historical Records" records that Shang Huo was from Lu, but Sichuan people say that he is from Sichuan, so Sichuan people have the saying that "Yi Xue is in Sichuan". slogan.After the death of Confucius, Zixia gave lectures on Hexi, and he also said that most of his classmates at that time thought that he had not learned the way of the master. That’s right, a classmate asked him about the rain or shine the next day, and Zixia said it would be sunny, but it turned out to be rainy just like the modern meteorological station, so Shang Huo was the descendant of Yi.It is recorded in history that Shang Huo had no son at the age of forty. Shang Huo’s mother was very sad, so she asked Confucius. Confucius told her not to be sad, and told her that Shang Huo would have three good sons after the age of forty. Everything turned out to be like Confucius As I said, so the use taught by Confucius, from the Shang Huo system, has been down, and in the Han Dynasty, it evolved into the Jingfang system.However, Jingfang is not as brilliant as Confucius at that time. Now we introduce the example of Jingfang’s Yichang. "From the first to the fifth, do not move and recover, fly down and fly in all directions, and fly up and down to return to the body, which is the example of the sixteen hexagrams." Now take the Qian hexagram as an example to illustrate: Qian Gua, the first line becomes Tianfengnvhoukou, the second line becomes Tianshan Dunkou, the third line becomes Tiandibukou, the fourth line becomes Fengdiguankou, and the fifth line changes again. To strip the mouth of the mountain, the sixth line cannot be changed. If it becomes the Kun hexagram again, the change will be over, so the sixth line will not change, because the sixth line is immobile in terms of use. The line becomes the ancestral temple. Under the rules of Jingfangyi, the sixth line is the ancestral temple. This is compared to the ancestral temple of the ancestors in the ancient patriarchal society. It is the highest source and cannot be moved.If you use it to look at Fengshui, it will be difficult. It is generally known that Zuo Qinglong, right Baihu, front Suzaku, and Hou Xuanwu must be easy, but the fact is not that simple. It depends on where the original ancestor of Fengshui is. To regard Fengshui as a dragon, it depends on the source of the mountain and terrain. There are so-called ancestors, great ancestors, and great ancestors, and then this place becomes this place.The same is true of the ancestral temple in the hexagram change, so when it changes to the fifth line, the sixth line remains unchanged.In the Bagong hexagram of "Book of Changes", after the mountains and land are peeled off, it is the Jinkou of the fire land. This Jin of the fire land is the fourth line, that is, the first line of the outer hexagram has changed again. We have also said that this phenomenon of changing hexagrams However, ordinary people call it Youhun Gua, but in Jingfang Yi, the movement of this line is called "Xiafei", so that everyone will understand it after the introduction. If there is no explanation, it can be seen from the book that this "Xiafei" "I can't figure out the problem, what flies up and down, and where it flies from, I can't understand.The so-called flying down is actually flying up, flying from bottom to top, and flying up is flying from top to bottom.Looking at ancient books on the subject, each school has its own terminology, and when reading it, it is often blocked by these terms and cannot be understood.If you fly like this, in your imagination, it must be the first line of Fei, why did you come up to the fourth line? The fourth line of "flying down and going all the way" turns into Huo Di Jin.In this kind of place, we must look at Confucius' theory of Yi, as Confucius said in "Xi Zhuan": "Yi is not far away for a book, but it is also moved repeatedly for Taoism. The exchange of rigidity and softness should not be the essence of the classics, but the change is suitable." (Chapter 8 of "Yi Xi Zhuan") This book is a book that can be used anytime and anywhere in our life, but this law changes If you use a rigid mind to determine a fixed rule to learn, it will be difficult to understand.Yi is alive, even if you understand its laws, don't be bound by them.Today, if you learn Jingfangyi, you don't necessarily have to learn Jingfangyi's method. He can create Jingfang, and he can create it himself. Divination is the same, that is, leadership, life, etc., and so on. "For the sake of Tao, you have to change many times", you must know that changing, not changing is useless, wisdom is very flexible, and the law of Taoism is "changing" in application, and it does not stay in a certain place rigidly.For example, if there is a movement in the divination, how this dynamic changes needs to be studied and judged, and it needs to be understood. In life and work, if you know the antecedent at the beginning, you will also know the consequence, and the laws of personnel and society will never stop. "Liuxu Liuxu", Liuxu is the six lines, that is, the six positions, east, south, west, north, up and down.All changes in human affairs are related to time and space, so "up and down impermanence" is not fixed, and hardness and softness also change each other. It should not be regarded as fixed and must be so. Only when you know how to change can you know it. will also be used. Seeing Jing's Sixteen Hexagrams from "Xi Zhuan" We can also see some clues of the hexagram changes in Jingfang from the "Xi Zhuan". It’s like coming to your parents, and at the beginning, you will speak your words and make your prescriptions, which are typical, but you are not a person, and your way is not in vain.” (Chapter 8 of "Yi Xi Zhuan") This is very different from Jing Fangyi’s change of hexagram. The important relationship, one going out and one coming in, has a very fixed law. Although it is changing, there is still a constant law in the midst of the change.External changes and internal changes make people know fear, and life is all about being cautious.Every religious philosophy, looking at life and the world, has to be careful about every bit of it. Every day is in worry and fear. Why are there many things that if you don't move, you will stop, and if you move, it will cause pain and sorrow?When you understand it, you can know what's going on, just like a religious man. "There is no teacher to protect you", no one can protect you, "like your parents", only you can protect yourself, trembling at any time, knowing that everything is changing in time and space, so everything should have the spirit of a religious person anytime, anywhere, like Seriously guard yourself before God and Bodhisattva.His philosophy has no superstition, but has the absolutely serious spirit of a religious man.How to predict the prophet?You don't even need divination, you know the cause and effect by heart? "At the beginning of the speech and the prescription, there are classics, but if you are not a person, the way is not in vain." At the beginning, we read the above words and sentences. ——The conclusions studied by King Wen, Duke Zhou, and Confucius, and the words and sentences told us, we must first understand the meaning of these words and sentences, and then further reasoning to understand its intention, direction, and method, knowing that everything is In the midst of constant change, and all changes are not chaotic changes, but changes in accordance with a fixed law.How to find this fixed law still depends on the achievement of each person's own wisdom; those who have achieved this kind of wisdom can obtain the principle of prophecy, because the way is true. When it comes to the variants of Jingfangyi, we propose the eighth chapter of "Xi Ci" to explain that the variants are not random. Continuing to talk about hexagram changes, after flying down the four lines to become the Huodi Jinyouhun hexagram, following the reform of the Bagong hexagram, the eighth change will come, which is that all the three lines of the inner hexagram have changed, and become the Huotian Dayou The mouth hexagram, but the reform method of the sixteen hexagrams in Jingfang is not like this. After the Youhun hexagram, it flies down the three lines and turns into a volcano brigade. This is called the outer hexagram. The "outside and inside make one know fear" mentioned in the book is the outside.As for the external principles, such as doing a business, you are always trembling. Between success and failure, sometimes internal problems cause changes, and sometimes external problems cause changes.The third line of the downward flight is the external hexagram, and then the second line of the downward flight becomes the Huofeng Dingkou. Huotian has a large mouth, this is the first change, in fact it is also the second change, because the Eighth Palace itself has a change, so don't worry about it.Now the Bagong hexagram changes to the wandering soul, and then to the external, internal, and return to the soul.Why change after this?Because it has not yet returned to its original state, it is still changing, and it is necessary to go on the road of turning around. The turning back changes, "the unchanged upward flight (the second line) is Jueming" is the Jueming hexagram, such as divination to the Qian hexagram, just now The second line is moving and the fifth line is moving, so the Qian hexagram has changed into the Li hexagram, which is the Jueming hexagram. If you ask one thing, it is very dangerous.Qian hexagram itself is good, but there are major changes inside and outside, and this change can lead to failure to the end. If the hexagram says that it will fail to the end, and just let it go, this is not a person who learns.In Chapter 8 of the Second Biography of "Xi Ci" quoted above, Confucius said that "the way is not in vain", and it still depends on people, so don't take the road of superstition.Tell us that it is not that there is absolutely no way out when you are extremely proud and failure is extreme. It depends on your own wisdom. Jueming hexagram is just a warning.Let's go back and see that the second line and the fifth line of Qian Gua are good. It is said that "the blood of the descendants will be passed on, and the evolution will continue." Taking Jingfang Yi's hexagram change as an example, this is the blood of the Qian hexagram; The hexagram, going up to the fifth line, changes to the wind and thunder benefit hexagram, which is called the bone hexagram, and then goes down again, and the fourth line begins to change, which becomes the Tianleiwuwang mouth, which is called the coffin hexagram.Then go down to the third line, which is Tianhuo Tongrenkou, named Muku Gua, and the so-called "Grave Treasury Transport" and other terms for fortune-telling in later generations all come from here.Then go down and fly the second line change, which is Qian Gua, and restore it. There are sixteen changes in total, called Fei Fu.Flying and returning, the so-called flying is like jumping on the phone, which is to tell personnel that there is a sudden change. Now record the names of the sixteen hexagrams of the Qian hexagram here in turn: Qian, female empress, escape, no, view, peel, Jin (wandering soul), travel (outer hexagram), tripod (inner hexagram), great you (return to soul), leave (death), bite (blood), Yi (muscle), Yi (skeleton), Wuwang (coffin), Tongren (tomb), Qian (restore). The other sixteen hexagrams such as Kan, Gen, Zhen, Xun, Li, Kun, and Dui are also the same as the Qian hexagram. Jingfang Hexagram Changes and Life This sixteen hexagrams also illustrates another truth, from the wandering soul, the external, the internal, to the return of the soul, which explains the process of life.If you use Qian Gua to compare your life, it is very good to be the Queen of Tianfeng at the age of ten to twenty, to be Tianshan Dun at the age of twenty to thirty, to have a smooth career, to enter middle age, and to be the queen of heaven and earth at the age of thirty to forty. , almost, the eyes are getting old, the waist is sore and the back is hurting, it changes when you are 40 to 50 years old, and when you are 60 years old, the mountains and land are stripped. , Yoga, taking tonics, etc., are not the power of natal life after all.If the Wandering Soul Hexagram is not done well, then the Huotian will have great existence and enter Guihun. If it is done well, the outer hexagram and the inner hexagram can be changed in the middle.So at this time in life, you need to know the external and internal factors. If you still don’t know yourself, but think that you are still at the stage of the Tianfengnu Empress’ hexagram, and you still want to show off and do everything, you may be overwhelmed all of a sudden. Went to the tomb, and finally returned to the main body, then entered the ancestral temple, and put the wooden sign (spiritual tablet) in the feeding hall.Or if you don’t go well, you will die. Although you are dead, you can see the Chinese philosophy of life here. When a person is dead, the rest will be passed down, with blood, muscles, and bones. Finally return to the original restoration.This is very interesting, and it also explains the philosophy of life very clearly, so the philosophy of life in Chinese culture does not take life and death very seriously.So the Chinese have a system of teacher-to-apprentice. In the past, a teacher found a good apprentice and taught all the skills and knowledge to the apprentice. Then the teacher was very happy and thought that this apprentice was his future self. The success of the apprentice was also his own success. .Western culture does not have this kind of spirit. This kind of concept of blood descendants is the spirit of Chinese culture that lives forever. Usage of Jingfang Guabian The sixteen hexagrams of Jingfang have been introduced above, but how to use them?Its general outline is as follows: "Occupier encounter: those who change into the palace hexagram, the disaster and fortune should be very good. The outer ring hexagram: good and bad come from outside. The inner ring hexagram: misfortune and fortune start from the inside. The bone hexagram: life will win and thin, death No burial. Hexagram of Coffin: Sickness will lead to death. Hexagram of Blood Vessel: Leakage of blood diseases. Hexagram of Jueming: Repeated things, being lonely, out of harmony with common customs. Hexagram of Wandering Soul and Muscle: Trance, like a dream. Soul, family tomb hexagram: the tomb is auspicious, but nothing can be accomplished.” This is the usage of Jingfangyi Sixteen Biangua.I sincerely say that I don't like this set. Although I study it and understand it, I won't use it in my life.I believe that the gods of human wisdom do not rely on these external forces. I oppose everyone's use of them, and remind everyone again and again, don't be superstitious, superstition is meaningless.People often ask about it, and by the way, I would like to introduce the major principles of Jingfangyi’s judgment, but when you want to use it, don’t be so rigid. For example, the "occupier" in the first sentence refers to the person who divination. There must be a change in the hexagram, unless the six lines do not move, and the stable hexagram is judged by the hexagram words of the original hexagram. The first hexagram to enter this palace, disasters and disasters should be equal, that is, the sixteen hexagrams, and the last change of the hexagram is still dry, then enter the hexagram of this palace, if it is bad, it is very bad, and if it is good, it is also very good. The Waijie hexagram is different. It depends on the relationship between the lines. Good or bad luck comes from outside. For example, divination about a house. If the Waijie hexagram is good, it is foreign and unexpected; , crushing the whole house is not a problem in itself. Neijie hexagram encounters misfortunes and fortunes from the inside, from oneself, or problems in one's own family or within the company. The bone hexagram is the view of people, born thin, excessively thin, sick and thin, called winning thin.If you die without burial, you will not even occupy a piece of land when you die, and you will have no place to bury your body. Divination to the inner and outer hexagrams, if you are sick and ask for hexagrams, and you get this hexagram, don't think about the issue of recovery. Bloodline hexagram, if you are sick, you need to have a knife, or you have a trauma, or you need to see blood. Jueming hexagram, doing things repeatedly, it is difficult to be satisfied, if you look at the fate of people, you will be lonely all your life, and you will not get along with others. If it is the Wandering Soul Gua or the Muscle Gua, for a person, his mind will be broken, his mind will be in a trance, and he will be like a dream. If divination to the Guihun hexagram or the family tomb hexagram is good, other than the burial is good, other things are not good, and fortune-telling is like going to the tomb for luck, so what else is there to say! This is the view of Jingfang Divination, which is different from other schools. I have always liked and studied everything that evolved from Jingfang, but I have never used it. "'s research is not very advanced, but I personally don't like to rely on these. The Prophet - The Fault of Shao Kang Festival Remember these sixteen changes first, and when you read ancient books in the future, you will not suffer when you read these problems. It seems quite easy to introduce them now, but when you try to figure them out yourself, you will suffer and hate it.Moreover, there is a problem with ancient people’s research. Everyone is unwilling to explain it clearly. Maybe it is the same as our modern people. After studying it for a long time, after understanding it, I feel that I have suffered for several years, and I don’t want others to understand it all at once. Take it as a secret, don't tell others, and everyone keeps a hand for later, it will be bad.Or deliberately create a new name, change a trick, so that people don't understand, follow him, maybe it will be for nothing for many years, and there will be no results.Just like the revered Mr. Shao Kangjie, I often call him a liar.He calculates the fate of history, and he calculates it accurately, but how to calculate it?This method could not be found, so he hid the key and did not tell anyone. Once the key was opened, it would be nothing special.But having said that, he is really worthy of respect. He can integrate various laws of the ancients after Confucius to form a complete set of laws, which is indeed remarkable.But I often say that I only want to play for fun, and I don’t want to go deep. I am afraid that if I go deep, it will become a Shaokang Festival.He died at the age of fifty-nine, and he was sick all year round. He would collapse when the wind blows. up.In history, his biography was listed as a high scholar, and the emperor repeatedly asked him to come out as a prime minister. He said: "Why do you need to come out to be an official? Now the world is peaceful. There are good emperors, good leaders, and good prime ministers. In an era like this, I don't need to come out. "So I said that at best, I can learn from Shao Kangjie and be able to predict the future, so what?So I don't do it, everyone should pay attention, those who really understand "Yi" don't need to do this.Ordinary people learn Buddhism, learn freely, observe freely, and those who study Taoism are like Zhuangzi said to be free and unfettered. I don’t do things that are neither free nor comfortable.Life is to be free and unrestrained, to be healthy and comfortable, to live happily, to be healthy and healthy, to leave simply, without burdening your children, girlfriends, or yourself.Life like that of Shao Kangjie is so bitter, and he is so noble in the biography, but in my opinion, he is very bitter, but in history, people who understand generally, those who can predict the foresight are not healthy.You must learn well, and your mind must be open-minded. If you are not open-minded, you will become a snail if you are admitted by the country. Origin of the Five Elements Thought "Book of Changes - Xi Zhuan" says that "hardness and softness give rise to change". We must first know another thing before we can have a deeper understanding of this sentence.From now on, from the perspective of the history of Chinese academic development, the five elements have nothing to do with it.But the laws that need to be understood now have a close relationship with divination.The system of numerology such as divination is to use the Eight Diagrams, the Five Elements, and Yuzhi to make calculations.In our hands, when the so-called Qin Shihuang burned books, the books related to medicine were not burned.According to historical records, the books considered to be divination are the same as the poems signed in temples, irrelevant, so they were not burned. Therefore, among the five classics, the ancient version has the most preserved features and the most reliable content.But in this book, there is no mention of the Five Elements. It is only mentioned a little in the "Hong Fan Pian" of "Shang Shu" - "Book of Books", but it is not necessarily the same as later generations. is a big problem. Since modern times, scholars who are generally skeptical of Chinese culture believe that the Five Elements were created by people in the Han Dynasty, at least after the Qin and Han Dynasties. This is a view from the standpoint of studying the history of Chinese cultural development.In fact, the relationship between the five elements and yin and yang, we see a famous scholar in the Warring States period, Zou Yan, a yin and yang family. The situation of Qi Guo going to see King Hui of Liang is really pitiful. "The king said: old man, come here from a thousand miles away, will it benefit our country?" King Hui of Liang looked down on Mencius with his air, and said, "Old man! Why did you come to see me?" This is the taste.可是邹行一到齐国或其他国家,场面便大不相同了,国家的大员,乃至国君,无不亲自招待,等于现在国际知名的大科学家,到了任何一个国家,都受到盛大的欢迎一样。我们读《史记》,读到这些地方,要特别注意,不要被骗了。后人写历史,往往没有把这些重点强调出来,只照写历史,这就发生了错觉。历史记载都有年代,一查就知道了,驺衍每到一个国家都大受欢迎,而且带了一大群人。孔子周游列国也带了一大群学生,可是有时连便饭都弄不到吃,而驺衍每到一个国家则是吃不完的宴会,可见他在当时的影响有多大。邹行是道家、阴阳家,他到底在各国讲了些什么?我们不知道,因为历史上找不出证据。但是他留下了一点东西,他当时就说天下有九洲,中国是九洲的一洲为神洲。他这个说法是怎么来的?绝不可能坐飞机环绕地球一周看见的。现在我们才知道地球有八大洲,而他当时就知道了,所以他的思想学说,当时震动了各国,以科学的理论,指导了政治的原则。我们假使看思想史的发展,这些地方不要忽略了。但是在当时历史上,也找不出讲五行的资料。再退回来看,近年发现的甲骨文上,也没有五行的名词。 在我个人的看法,的文化,是中国文化上古时代中原文化的发展,是山西、河南这一带的文化。在上古时代,文字、语言还没有统一,不像秦汉以后的国家,当时每一地区、每一民族,有他自己的文化。如长江以南,楚国有楚国的文化,孔子的文化,继承了鲁国文化的系统;道家文化是继承了齐国文化的系统。那么阴阳五行的文化,可以说比的文化,亦即中原文化还要更古老一点,可能是黄河下游,北京、河北这一带的文化,如黄帝、伏蠢这一时代的文化一样。所以研究上古的文化思想史,是一个很大很艰难的工作。几千年来,历代学者作了那么多分类的努力,乃至现代也有人研究了半辈子,还是搞不清楚。这是我个人的看法,这看法也不一定对,仅供作参考而已。假使没有弄清楚这个观念,而把中国上古传统文化乱扯一阵,那就牵涉太大了。 什么是五行? 五行的文化,所谓五行,就是金、木、水、火、土。现在研究它第一个要注意的,假使算命先生算命,把行认为是走路,那就绝对错了。我们翻,乾卦的“天行健”这句话,这个“行”是代表运动的意思,就是“动能”,宇宙间物质最大的互相关系,就在这个动能。这个“动能”有五种,以金、木、水、火、土作代表。也和卦一样,是种传统符号,不要看得太严重了。所谓“金”并不是黄金,“水”亦并不是和杯中喝的水一样,千万不要看成了五行就是五种物质。上古文化的五行:金、木、水、火、土,就是现代的地球文化,地球外面的五星,对我们的关系很大,现在先解释这五个字。 金,凡是坚固、凝固的都是金,上古时不是现代的科学分类,当时对于物质世界中有坚固性能的,以金字作代表。 木,代表了树木,代表了草,代表了生命中生的功能和根源。草木被砍掉以后,只要留根,第二年又生长起来。白居易的诗:“离离原上草,一岁一枯荣,野火烧不尽,春风吹又生。”这就是木的功能,生长力特别大也特别快,木就代表了生发的生命功能。 水,代表了流动性,周流不息的作用。 火,代表了热能。 土,代表了地球的本身。 所以称它们为五行,是因为这五种东西,互相在变化,这个物质世界的这五种物理,互相在影响,变化得很厉害,这种变化,名叫生、克。 五行的生克 说到生、克,我们研究,都知道综卦。综卦就是告诉我们世界上的事物,都有正反两个力量:有生,有克。生克是阴阳方面的说法,在学术思想上,则为祸福相倚,正与反,是与非,成与败,利与害,善与恶,一切都是相对的,互相生克。如姜太公流传下来的道家经典《阴符经》里面说“恩生于害”这句话,举例来说,像父亲打儿子,儿子挨打很痛,这是“害”,但目的在把孩子教育成人,这就是“恩生于害”。领导人对部下亦是如此。这句话的意义很深。中国乡下人有句老话,送人一斗米是恩人,送人一担米是仇人。帮朋友的忙,正在他困难中救济一下,他永远感激,但帮助太多了,他永不满足。往往对好朋友,自己付出了很大的恩惠,而结果反对自己的,正是那些得过你的恩惠的人,所以做领导的人,对这点特别要注意。一个人的失败,往往失败在最信任、最亲近的人身上。历史上这种例子很多。这种人并不一定是存心害对他有恩的人,像拿破仑在两个人的心目中,被认为他不配当英雄,一是他自己的太太,一个是他的一个老朋友,因为太亲近,相处太久了,就有不同的观念,在不知不觉中,会做出一些有害的事来。这都是恩与害,往往互为因果的关系,所以“恩生于害”这句话很重要。而它的原理,亦即来自生克的法则,生人者也克人,恩与害,两个对立相存,没有绝对的一方。现在青年人谈恋爱也知道,爱得愈深,恨得也愈深,这也就是“恩生于害”的原理,也是生克的法则。关于五行的生克道理,可以用下面这两个图案来表现: A图的箭头是表示相生的,就是依时针的方向顺序,依次而生,成为木生火,火生土,土生金,金生水,水生木。 B图上的箭头是表示相克的,五行的位置,和第一图相同,箭头所指的方向,也是顺时针方向,所不同的,相生图的箭头,是指向紧靠自己的邻居,而相克图的箭头,是跳了一个位置,指向隔邻的位置上,于是成了木克土,土克水,水克火,火克金,金克木。 五行的方位 上面的两个圆圈,只是便于说明五行相互生克的关系,而五行所处的方位,并不如上图,而是像下面的五行方位图: 上面这个五行方位图(必须要记住的),为东方木(请特别注意,图中的方位,是以的方位为准,不是现代画地图的方位),西方金,北方水,南方火,中央土,这个方位非常有道理。我们在明朝时也开矿,当时并没有地质学,怎么知道何处有矿,固然有的是当地的居民发现的,但大多数是靠八卦五行的道理,来判断五行的中心。西方金,在西藏,越到西方,藏金越多。东方木,植物易生发,早受阳光热能。南方火,气候炎热。北方水,冰雪最多。初看好像五行方位很乱,再作仔细观察,不能说它没有理由,古人是怎样发现这个法则的呢?以金为例: 金生水,在《千字文》——这篇文字很妙,以一千个不同的字,写成了这篇文章,把天文、地理、物理、政治等等,都容纳进去了,幼年读来好像无所谓,实在是一篇很伟大的著作,其中有一句“金生丽水”,这个丽水不是浙江的丽水县。丽水是形容水多,凡是藏金的地方,一定是雨带地区。我初到台湾时,看见有金铜矿务局,问起产金的地方在金山、瑞芳一带,我说那里的雨量一定很多,果然基隆、金山、瑞芳一带常下雨,这就是“金生丽水”,藏金的地方雨水多。 金克木,当然砍木头要用铁器,或用锯子去锯,这还不足为奇。在古代,假如门口有一棵大树,认为风水不好,而又觉得砍伐麻烦,不如让它自己枯死,就用一枚大铁钉,打到树的中心,这棵树很快就枯萎了,这就是金克木的现象。 另外一个哲学的道理,例如金生水,在古代就说:“水者金之子。”水是金的儿子,于是水生木,木是水的儿子,木生火,火是木之子,火生土,土是火之子,土生金,金又是土之子。 克则是隔代相克。从前有一个笑话,一个祖父打孙子,可是他的儿子看到了,便打自己耳光,这位打孙子的祖父问儿子为啥自打耳光,他儿子说:“你可以打我的儿子,我怎么不可以打你的儿子?”这也近于五行相克,事实也是如此。所谓隔代相克,逢三必变,这是一个法则。在生克之中,恩生于害,害又生恩。以军事哲学来说,一次大战之后,可以促进人类文明的进步,所以有时觉得战争并没有什么可怕,等于理发,头发长了,剃剃就漂亮。有许多讲军事哲学的朋友,就以这种五行生克的法则来讲,也言之成理。物理的法则亦然,须到了一个时候,必要清理一下,才能创造出更新的事物,这是宇宙的法则。五行的方位,对我们研究物理关系很大,大家一定要记住。
