Chapter 132 The sky is high and the earth is low, and the world is low

"I'm willing to learn this heavenly book with Nan Lao, Xuan, don't say some bastards, but also learn from me. You know, if you don't have the blessing of the origin of the turtle, you only have the cultivation of the super holy beast. It's very shameful to go out." After saying that, Shan Yun saluted Mr. Nan sincerely.

In the final analysis, Xuan is just cute. In his heart, he still thinks that the old man Tianshu has something good. Immediately, he also saluted and expressed his willingness to learn.

"Okay, since you are willing to learn, I will explain this passage you can see now." Seeing that the child could be taught, Nan Lao was happy to respond and said, "First of all, let's talk about this heaven and earth, and the universe are determined. How do you understand it?"

Xuan rushed and said, "I know this. It's very noble to be high in the sky. When the earth is high, it is very lowly and lowly. Is it explained in this way?"

"Stupid, stupid turtle, you should hit 300 boards if you explain it like this!" Nan Lao was so happy.

Shan Yun also smiled and said, "Xuan is indeed wrong. The lazy heart is to take the tunnel route. Although the tunnel is everywhere, it is deep and far away. It carries everything and absolutely has nothing to do with cheapness."

Nan Lao's expression softened and said, "This is it! Bei, just means close. You are a reincarnation. You should know that in the real world, the earth is a planet. Take the earth of Zhou Yi's origin as an example. The earth is very humble, and the humble are close. In particular, human culture is the culture of the big land. People can't live without land, which is very close to human beings. In other words, humble is very shallow, very shallow, very close. Therefore, the sky, so high and boundless space, is endless; the earth, this earth, is so close to the humanities and culture, very close. After understanding this principle and having this concept, it is much more convenient to study the Book of Changes. Because our research on this day, space research, has too much content. Even the study of geophysics is too extensive to describe. Therefore, the ancients were summarized as two simple symbols, so it is said that heaven and earth are humble, and the universe is determined.

"What's the determination?" Shan Yun asked sincerely.

"It must be a definite law and cannot be changed. For example, when we stand on the ground, there is the sky on our head. When we get to the plane, we look up at the sky and look at the sky outside, and outside space, it is still the sky. The one we step on is the ground. For example, astronauts can't land in space and turn around forever. The thing that can be stepped on, the down-to-earth, the one is called the ground. This law cannot be changed, so the universe is determined.

"Well, I understand! Do these two sentences also explain why the Book of Changes is led by the two hexagrams of the universe? Shan Yun didn't think about it.

Xuan complained to himself: Why don't I understand anything?

Unfortunately, Xuan, who has no concept of the structure of the real world planet, can never imagine the feeling of standing on a ball and stepping on the earth.

Nan Lao was very happy and said, "Very good. Good students should know how to draw inferences from it." Next, the two sentences of humble highness explain why heaven is so respectful, why the earth is called humble, and humble is the use of reversal. The meaning of inferiority does not affect the meaning of inferiority and inferiority. The sky is so high and boundless; the earth is so close to our relationship, so humble, so related. With this natural phenomenon, staying there, our life can touch it every day, anytime, anywhere, every second, every space is close to heaven and earth. A high sky, a close land, humble and high, it is naturally displayed and placed there.

It's a noble position. Therefore, this position is determined to form the noble and lowly human psychological concept. Why? Human beings have a big problem. What they can't get will always be noble; if they get it, it will not be precious, they will look down on it, and they will be humble. People who don't get rich are dreaming when they see money. But when they have money, if they have more money, they don't know how to use it. They will hate that money, and they will be tired of hearing the word money - of course, it's annoying, whether they love it or love it.

The problem of noble and lowly is due to the far-reaching and recent human kindness. Human psychological problems, like far-distance things, difficult things, especially things that are not easy to get, so it is difficult and easy. The more difficult it is, the more it can't be obtained, and the more it feels very precious. Foreign monks can recite scriptures, because it is rare for him to invite. Therefore, human feelings are difficult and easy, and despise easy things. Difficult and easy, far and light, pay attention to what is far and far and far can't be touched, and despise what is easy to get in front of you.

As Shan Yun listened, he nodded. He thought that there was nothing wrong with his noble and humble heart. As for himself, more than ten years ago, when he was still a small ink man, he felt very happy when he could eat a vegetable exclusive to the original Motang every day, but what about now? But he can pick the taste. He will never eat what he doesn't like. What about before? There are only a few ink coins on my body, so I think about how to make money all day long and how to make more money with less effort. And now? He probably only thinks that money is a symbol, and occasionally he will have the feeling of counting money to vomit, not at all the kind of ** that he wanted to make money in those years.

Fortunately, Shanyun's problems in this regard are not very serious. He will not like the new and hate the old, and he will not cherish it if he gets it. Otherwise, he would not have said that irritating and indifferent words to Li Jiaren just now.

"I understand the truth of heaven and earth. Maybe heaven and earth and even Qian and Kun are just symbols. Heaven and Qian represent things that human beings can't touch, and earth and Kun represent the ordinary things that human beings have at present. Because people have different reactions to the humble, there will be different nobles in the human world. This is the humble position. Shan Yun's understanding was extremely high. At this time, he continued to ask, "What's wrong with the movement and flexibility?" There are yin and yang, movement and softness in gossip. Yin and yang are probably related to high and lowness. What does that movement and softness have to do with it?

Xuan's two mung beans' eyes turned straight. I don't know how Shanyun understood it, but I couldn't understand it at all. I wondered if the structure of the head was really different?

"Teaching students with good understanding is to save trouble. There is constant movement, and it is flexible. You should pay special attention to learning the I Ching. Yin and Yang sometimes represent fixed things, and sometimes they are not fixed. Rigid and soft, dynamic and static are all abstract nouns, and can also be said to be nouns of entities. Entity or abstraction are all artificial assumptions. People call the swing dynamic; the stable and rigid is called static. If the ancients initially called the swing static and the rigid dynamic, then in our current concept, the views on "motion" and "quiet" are completely different. Therefore, "motion" and "yin and yang" are all artificial assumptions.

However, since the ancients assumed this, since the image between heaven and earth is also moving and quiet, the two images are represented by hexagrams: static is represented by Kun hexagrams, which belongs to yin; dynamic things are represented by dry hexagrams, which belongs to yang.

What does movement mean? It is a phenomenon in the physical world. The physical world - the rotation of the sun, moon and earth is constant, and there is a fixed law, which is conventional and cannot be changed; the law of nature is regular.

There is constant movement and static. There are all the natural laws in the irregularity of all activities in the physical world, and they cannot be violated. For example, if the sun doesn't come up from the east, if it turns back, we can't stand it. Movement is constant, and movement represents the normal state of the physical world.

Rigid and soft, "rigid" and "soft" are also two code names, representing the evolution of the universe. It has reached the material world, but the physical world has not yet taken shape. For example, the sun, the earth and the moon, this is matter. The material world is not called yin and yang in the Book of Changes, but rigid and soft. It's just soft. It's not broken, it's sure. The material world is rigid and soft. For example, land and rocks are strong, water is soft, and one is determined by one. This is broken. Therefore, "motion" is about the physical world, and movement is often about the laws of the physical world. "Justice and softness" is the law of the material world. The principles are almost the same, so you have learned the Book of Changes and learned the laws of the physical world and the material world.

"I understand that movement, stiffness and softness, and even yin and yang are the code names of two opposing phenomena. In the world of heaven and earth, it is called yin and yang, in the physical world, it is called movement, and in the material world, it is called strength and softness. It seems that every hexagram in the gossip is composed of two of the three pairs of phenomena: yin and yang, movement, and rigidity and softness. The yang in the yin and yang, the movement in the movement, and the rigidity in the softness, then form the three horizontal dry hexagrams, the yin in the yin and yang, the silence in the family, and the softness in the stiffness and softness, to form the three broken hexagrams. Speaking of which, whether it is yin and yang, movement or stiffness and softness are just three different perspectives in the big system of the universe or the big house. From the top to the bottom, it is yin and yang, from the left and right, and from the front and back, it is rigid and soft. And Qiangua is equivalent to the front door of this big house, and Kungua is relative to the back door of the big house. Both the front door and the back door are part of the house. Moreover, if a person changes his perspective, the front door will become the back door, and the back will become the front door, which will change. However, no matter how much they change, their position in this big house will not change. Is that normal? Shan Yun said inferences again.

"I can understand why you have achieved today with just a lazy scripture, because your understanding is really terrible. I don't think the old man will have anything to teach you in a short time.

Xuan slandered on the side: Old man, you don't have much in the first place. You blow up a set of mysterious things to the sky. I don't know if it's a real cow or a fake cow.

Nan Lao ignored the mystery with a pair of mung bean eyes and continued to say, "As for the gathering of squares and the division of things by groups, the reason in this is also easy to understand. What does the class gather include? For example, in terms of politics, it includes geopolitics, geographical environment and other relationships. Like the turtle continent where you were born, or even anywhere, the southeast, northwest and north are different, and the species and human form and personality are also different.

Shan Yun agreed: "Well, the people on the Turtle Continent, we can know where they live at a glance. If they have blue-faced fangs and are tall, then they are orcs living in the north. If you are slim, agile, and have a pair of pointed ears, it must be an elf from the forest in the middle of the continent..."

Xuan finally inserted a sentence: "I can also distinguish between the turtles in the sea and the turtles on the land at a glance."

"You black-shelled stupid turtle is a rare thing. Others can't see where you came from." Nan Lao did not let go of the opportunity to teach Xuan a lesson and said, "As for the division of things by groups, that is to say, the formation of social things. So good or bad luck is born. If there are human beings, there will be opinions, and there will be problems. There is nothing we can do to fight because of different opinions. Therefore, after reading the Book of Changes, when I look at the affairs of the world and the chaos and disputes in the world, I know that it is a fact that it is difficult for manpower to save. Birds of a flock together, things are divided into groups, and good or bad are born! Here, we talk about the physical world from the yin and yang and softness, the universe of heaven and earth, to the physical world; talk about the spatial relationship between the physical world and the material world; then we talk about the relationship between the earth and the physicality of people; because human beings have things to divide by groups, there are opinions, and if there are opinions, they have to fight, and there are good and bad luck. Therefore, good and bad luck are the inevitable result after the emergence of the group society.

Shan Yun thinks that no matter where he goes, fighting is always inevitable. Just like the kind of 'small country and widows of people' described in the last chapter of the lazy people's heart, so that the people have a hundred weapons without even knots, chickens and dogs hear each other, old and death do not come to each other'. The paradise is just an ideal country, and it does not exist at all. In the spirit world of turtles, there are four major races: orcs, elves, human beings, and undead. As long as they have different races and beliefs, there will be contradictions. If there are contradictions, there will always be wars. This is a natural thing, and manpower is irreparable. Because in order to live, human beings will unconsciously cut down forests and destroy the land. In order to obtain food, the orcs on the grassland need to invade the country of mankind and plunder food. They are born like this, and it's too difficult to change them.
