(1)The Formation of the Book of Changes and Human Relations :The origin of the Book of Changes
The origins of the I Ching, how to used, all aspects of our fortune-telling, including daily life, as long as human evolution, failures or success, all have a direct bearing on this system. Now we talk about it, with legends in history past it down, including the facts, more or less there is a gap, in the historical record which really recorded the beginning is from the five emperors, but in the legend there still have three more emperors, called the three emperors -San Huang-and five emperors—Wu Di—, then in the three emperors' records, with the legend of the word “narrative”, the later five emperors wrote very clearly in the historical records, including the time when Huang Di was leading the society, so he had a Huangdi Mausoleum. Before going to the Yellow Emperor Mausoleum in the early days, people would first go CiHu pay one's respects to Jianggong.
Yuanling—pay respect to some tomb— was first started in the Huangdi Mausoleum of the Han Dynasty. It merged with the Historical Records and became the existence of the Chinese nation. It was established at the time of the emperor. He paid the respects. Everyone went to the Mausoleum of the Yellow Emperor with signatures. Chiang Kai-shek swears the Northern Expedition. When Zhang Xueliang returned to the center of the team, Chiang Kai-shek went to sign the name and also went to Fuling. After Mao Zedong established the People's Republic of China on October 1, 1949, he also went to Fuling to sign it. The signature was still there, but Chiang Kai-shek’s signature was During the Cultural Revolution, it was painted out.
When did the Book of Changes come out with prototype? In the book of history, Fu Xi is written, and in the book is called Bao Yushi. Fu Shishi reached the the times of Shennong and Xiongren, known as the Three Emperors before the Yellow Emperor. The three emperors were very important. The establishment of the Three Emperors laid the foundation for the existence of the Yellow Emperor. He collected all the tribes left by the Three Emperors. The essence, combining it and creating a real country, becomes a model that truly lays the foundation for human survival.
Food, clothing, shelter, transportation, and such actions at the time, made a boat, our current transportation, when the Yellow Emperor used one of the three Shennong as a decision, the food he developed as a decision. This was the time of the Yellow Emperor and was also cited from the Three Emperors.
In clothing, the Lay Zhu will weave, and wit live, they will be able to build palaces. I think that it is possible to get a few pieces of wood and to use awns on them. I think so. Like European castles after the 13th century, use rock for castle.Therefore, the cultural system is not the same, so the human development process is not the same. In the entire process of the Chinese nation, it is not the same as the European process. The European process is a kind of change and competition with the human race, and it is not the same as the competition of the Chinese nation.
We talked about very early time. During the Zhou Dynasty, we paid great attention to the issue of people's livelihood. They must understand whether or not humans can survive in this region. At that time, some people observed and discovered that thunderstorms are very important. Things to use thunderstorms as dragon, used it as the water. The dragons in Europe and the United States are monsters. They will spit fire. Chinese dragons will sprinkle water. In this culture, it is completely different.
So if you were older, in the era of the Japanese occupation, the family would go to buy a spring cow map, stick it to the wall, with few sericulture and few dragons to control the water, and you know if you can harvest this year. What will make the map? The government has to do this. The Ming Dynasty did a very successful job. It was done in the Temple of Heaven. When in the winter solstice, it is to worship the heavens. It is necessary to make a distinction. After the divination, it is recorded and after recorded, the kind of calendar is printed. Now we are talking about the farmer calendar. The common people take one, and who will buy it? The landlord bought it and put it in his living room. When the farmer wanted to send the landlord something during the Chinese New Year, the landlord would tell him that this year we should pay attention to the fact that there are several dragons to control the water. Because the former tenants could not not read.
Transportation? Because of all the relationships between all aspects of the record, make it into boat and carriage, the Yellow Emperor era has set as a boat and carriage , take it as transportation, and now get to the Ministry of Communications. In fact, in food and clothing, this transportation covers too much, your work is also considered, your business is also transportation, including your marriage will be good or not, is the meaning of your behavior, this has a great influence.
Our education does not have behavioral education. What should we do? Before the law was established, the law was formerly known as ritual. In the Yellow Emperor era, it was true that there was nothing wrong with the means of transportation. However, it was not at the time of the Zhou dynasty. Therefore, the Zhou dynasty uses rituals and the Zhou dynasty dictates that rituals are purposives. The residence is outside the palace and will develop in the future, your home, etc. Therefore, people talked about feng shui.
The clothing talks about its material and the food is about function. This behavior is to eat, including clothing, and then follow with shelter , it is to use your actions to deal with it. You should not underestimate it. The four are connected together. In a person, there must be a basis, if you eat the wrong function, you can work ?Can not. If you end up with stomach pains, how can you go to work? It is impossible for you to do your job. Therefore, this is the most important thing. Nothing more important than food.
All people take food as their heaven. No matter what you eat, you are with the heavens and the universe. If you do not eat, you have no way to go with the heavens. Therefore, many religions have developed and leaders of religions often made mistakes. The message is for everyone to eat is sinful, so do not eat anything, and finally come to a spiritual practice, cross-legged to the cave, did not eat, let the Governor of the two veins get through, below the breath of the earth, above the atmosphere of the receiving universe, they will live like this. After observing so many times, they all died and none survived.
They were of a belief that they could live forever because they were united with heaven and earth, and together with then. If you like this, you can survive. This is the previous thought. Is there such an idea in the Book of Changes? ? No. The entire behavior of the I Ching itself, when it reached the Yellow Emperor, stabilized the situation for people. This is an essential human behavior. These behavioral functions are also good, what kind of material to wear, what kind of home you want to live in, what you want to do, or in the time of the Three Emperors, the Fuxi, Shanren, and Shennong, the principle has been giving to you an I Ching.
