Chen Yikui in the pre-net era

In the course of the development of human civilization, there are countless trails of struggle. Someone once said that the reason why humans are different from other animals lies in their ability to accumulate wisdom and retain the results of their previous people’s efforts. The original foundation has been developed upwards, and countless dazzling civilization achievements in history have been completed. Otherwise, the history of mankind is only tens of thousands of years, and the recorded history is about 10,000 years. Compared with other creatures' survival history of millions of years, it is still just the "children" in the history of biology, how can they accumulate such achievements in civilization in just tens of thousands of years? For example, the spider will form webs, hunt, and mate. This has not changed since millions of years. Human beings are born with nothing, and there is no way to take care of themselves and survive, but after learning, When he grows up, this person may become a music master, a Nobel laureate, or an outstanding entrepreneur, and if he gets to the next level, he may become Einstein, Newton, Bill Gates, or Mozart, Beethoven.

​In the history of civilization development, everyone has the potential to contribute a piece of effort and become a part of the achievements of the entire civilization. However, in the entire development process of civilization, there are very few people. Their achievements not only scorn the contemporary, but even become an important key to the development of the latecomers. Such influence can sometimes extend to hundreds of years or even a few thousand of years later.

The famous historian Sima Qian of the Han Dynasty, his "Historical Records" is an extremely important historical work in history. It can be said that before Sima Qian, history was limited to simply recording events and names. Only after “historical records “ began to have a soul, people learned from the "Historical Records" that history can be written in flesh and blood. In the process of recording history, people's joys, angers, sorrows, and separations can also be vividly written on paper. We can say that Sima Qian's "Historical Records" changed the face of history for thousands of years in the future with the power of one person and one book.

The famous western biologist Darwin is famous for studying the evolution of living things. Common people's impression of Darwin is probably only the results of his research on evolution, and the British scientist will be mentioned whenever he mentions the evolution of species. But in fact, the concept of "evolution" is not Darwin's original creation. Many people have had similar arguments before Darwin, but no one can integrate the whole concept, so it cannot form too much influence. However, Darwin crossed the dangerous ocean and traveled many small islands during his famous biological mystery journey, and finally formed the entire evolutionary theory of "natural selection" and wrote the book "The Origin of Species." This book has influenced all biological evolution research experts in later generations. Until now in the 21st century, anyone who studies biological evolution must be affected by this masterpiece. Similarly, Darwin also influenced the entire human world with the power of one person and one book.

​How much energy can a person's power unleash? What kind of comprehensive impact can one's research achieve? With the strength of a single person, Master Confucius has not even written the "Analects" handed down by himself, but his influence can be more than two thousand years later; if there is no Einstein in the physics world, the entire quantum theory may come out at night. Ten years; after studying the history of the pre-Qin era, historians also found that if there were no Qin Shihuang’s "cars on the same track, books with the same writing", the entire Central Plains mainland was integrated with words. Now China, like Europe, may have become dozens of small divided countries.

It can be seen that although it does not happen often in history, sometimes, a research, a book, or a person's power is very likely to have infinite expansion energy.

The Chinese culture developed from the Yellow River Basin is one of the most brilliant and greatest cultures in the history of human civilization. The characteristics of this culture are: premature maturity, strong sustainability, and far-reaching influence. Precocity means that the maturity of this culture comes very early. Someone once said that the development of Chinese culture is like a five-year-old child who was supposed to be in a small kindergarten, but has already completed the university graduate courses. In the pre-Qin era more than two thousand years ago, when most civilizations in the world were still in the early reckless period, there was a big explosion of knowledge development in Chinese culture. Philosophy, law, human survival (yin and yang studies), as well as science and medicine, have all been high-level development achievements, and some of them are still very practical theories even more than two thousand years later. In fact, through many technologies and scientific researches that changed the world, the Chinese civilization was also conceived earlier than all civilizations in the world. For example, the discovery of Pi was hundreds of years earlier than the West, and the so-called "Four Great Inventions" gunpowder , Printing, papermaking, and compasses were also the earliest inventions of the Chinese civilization in China.

Strong continuity refers to the resilience and vitality of this civilization. The "four major civilizations" in the history of human civilization: Egyptian civilization, Babylonian civilization, Indian civilization, and Chinese Chinese civilization. Only the Chinese Chinese civilization still exists. The other three great civilizations. The Babylonian civilization has long ceased to exist, and Egypt and In India, only a country exists, but their current nation has nothing to do with the civilized race back then, which is tantamount to "backdoor listing."

Such a culture with a long history and full of civilization and wisdom, the knowledge contained in it can be described as vast. But it is a pity that it is like a library that lacks management. No matter how rich the library is, if no one goes to read it, the precious knowledge covered in mountains and plains is the same as the stones on the street, and it has no value at all. Knowledge is the same as books in the library. It’s a pity that in the era of many schools two thousand years ago, many of the cultural wisdom crystallizations have reached perfection, because of the long time and the fault of inheritance, they have been scattered in the cracks of time, some have been lost, and some have even been lost without a name.Some are lucky enough to leave a word in the crevices of history, but because of the lack of proper translation, few people can get a glimpse of the value of it. It's like a pearl covered in sand and gravel, which looks even worse than a stone. valuable.

To give a simple example, the "feng shui" learning that everyone has heard of, its true prototype is the philosophy of existence that the ancient wisdom obtained from the interaction between humans and nature after years of verification. It is a kind of combination. The great theories of environmental science, humanistic psychology, and ecology have become a kind of feudal superstition that almost everyone shouts after years of loss and misleading by the warlocks. Nowadays, many people talk about feng shui as just sneers. It’s just that the scientific workers disagree. Even the general public is totally unacceptable to many people. But the real fact is that many people in the Western world have begun to attach importance to this ancient wisdom that combines housing, ecology, and humanities. The deciphering and modern interpretation of Feng Shui is actually a science that conforms to the spirit of science.

Much of the wisdom in Chinese culture is actually the science of ancient people. Under the environment of insufficient information and incomplete equipment at the time, the ancestors used their incomparable wisdom to form a set of human beings and the great under the limited information system. The theory of natural coexistence and combination is the true appearance of many ancient wisdoms.
