YiJing Monograph (5)Symbolic yin and yang
Therefore, we become exorcism in the concept of religion, and the ghost is yin, so Guanyin Tasi uses the willow to exorcise evil spirits. The solid is yang, and the hollow is yin, but at that time there was no discussion about yin and yang. When the nature of this food evolved into the Zhou Dynasty, the expression of yin and yang was more specific. When use a fixed specific symbol to answer it, when Gua hang up, when I hang it to a solid, solid object , it can be put a little longer, it uses 9, that one Yao the stick with a solid, then which Yao you want to use 9, you looking for that solid stick to be the record of that Yao. The use of 6,6 is hollow, so that it is represented.
After arriving at the Yin and Yang school, after the Warring States period, 9 and 6 Yao were changed to yin and yang. Think of 6 as yin and 9 as yang. In this way, the nature of the object is to be yin and yang, then why is the man a yang? Is the woman yin? This is a concept. Is there a hole in our bamboo? There is another joint knot, the bamboo is yin, there is a stick like this yang, can the yang can be worn inside the hole? This is yin and yang. Sticks, bamboo tubes, and nature, take this nature as a sex, and set the woman as Yin, Fuxi era, and matriarchal society. At that time, there was no discussion about yin and yang. Because the mother of the matriarchal society was the biggest at that time, it was born in a native religion in Taiwan, or in the world's indigenous religion. In terms of religion, the Catholic Church uses the Virgin Mary, Buddhism is male, Muslim is also male, and males are used. Muslims regard women as objects and as property. This is a very important change, with China. The earliest matriarchal society was different, so in Taiwan, many religions were made into religions using Fuxi’s earliest matriarchal society.
Yijing has a good point, both of which speak the real thing, the actual, the nature of the yin and yang, why at the earliest time, the bamboo uses the yin and the stick to use the yang, because it can be inserted together, so this way, the man is fixed to Yang, The woman becomes yin.
Yin and Yang are based on the principle of this kind, and slowly think of its thinking as theorization. This is very scientific. When the material works, the existence of this thing will produce a symbol. You have read the chemical. People know, probably can't see it. In terms of the existence of a substance, I have seen iron but I don't have iron now. What should I do? In foreign countries, this iron component, this atom, element, I use this symbol instead, then you say that the iron of this symbol is really iron? We touched it, no, how can it be iron, it doesn't look like iron, but it is a symbol. You can't say that Gen is a mountain, it's a flat mountain, it's not right. Therefore, it is often misunderstood by others. The theory of the materialism we talk about is easy to misunderstand the symbols we write, because of the traditional Chinese education model.
China's entire expression of the text with patterns, mountain patterns, foreign expressions with sound, then can it be or not? Can be.
If you use sound, what do you want to say? Was it true that the sound of the mountain before was called the nose? Can. Because no one has previously ordered it to be the nose, become this mountain, why? We can now talk about the mountain roots on the face. (used to describe the nose).
It were a model of education at that time, China used pictograms, then the problem came. You have to put yin and yang into it, it is yang, this place is yin, and finally tells you that the yin is the mountain stream and the valley, and the tip top is the yang. The yin and yang are fixed like this. After the concept of yin and yang goes in, it brought in with the pattern. Just use it as a pictogram, and structure its entire yin and yang.
One very interesting thing is that in a theory of yin and yang itself, the pattern of this one and the word should also produce its sound, and the sound should be divided into yin and yang, but the foreign theory is not like this, the consonant and the vowel, Do we have any of that? Have. Mother is yin! The child must have that one, it must be yang, Yang sound! Therefore, the vowel sound can not be fixed a lot, so there are only five kinds of foreign vowels A, E, I, O, and U, and the other all consonant sounds. Then the vowels of Chinese characters are the same, so our mothers are very diverse, because I am not an expert specializing in phonetics. I probably know that we are talking about the Yijing. It became a legato and put it in the Book of Changes.
When the pictographic pattern is placed inside the Yijing, the structure of the whole pattern is vertical and horizontal, which causes a basic brushwork of the Chinese character itself. Therefore, the Chinese say that the text is also derived from the theory of Yijing, Zhang Taiyan said, The Yijing itself is the article of the world, that is, the whole structure concept of all the words is come this way, it is very beautiful.
