Trigram Application (17 )Eight trigram , sixty-four hexagram
People have two systems, one is the physiological system and the other is the psychological system. The physiological system should have a feeling called a sense or a visible object. The psychological feeling is something more spiritual, it may not be able to see.
When doing this kind of Gua research, before the Zhou Dynasty, when Fuxi had just painted, the Shennong era, for the most basic conditions for survival, it was enough to use eight trigrams, then to the soul when the conditions are met, the eight trigrams will not work, and the two will overlap and operate. Therefore, during the Zhou dynasty, this is called Zhouyi.
Zhou Yi’s expression, when it’s something you can’t describe, it’s represented by its voice. Zhou Yi’s first trick is to talk about the weather. It’s not talking about the cloud, it’s not rain, there is no wind, it tells you that a thing that will make you hard to forget in a lifetime is thunder, so that you will remember. Why is this? Because when the clouds are going to rain, you may not be on the spot, maybe you are hiding in the cave, or hiding under the tree, hiding there, not seeing it, but this voice must exist.
Therefore, when your mind is in what kind of time, you must use two Gua together, that is Zhou Yi's 64 hexagram together, and survive with eight trigram. Like our body, it is a physiological thing to survive, so we can use the trigram in our body. The head to the tail vertebra is called the Du Meridian, Qian Gua. From the chin of your mouth to your genitals, this vein is called Ren Meridian. It is called Kun Gua.
Then the meridians passing by the hands and feet have six like Dui, Gen, Xun, Zhen, Li, Kan. It analyzes the principles of your survival very clearly. The head is the Qian, tummy is Kun, Dui is hand, Gen is foot, Li is hand, Kan is foot, Zhen also hand, and Xun also foot.
Then divide it, and it has two meridians in the hand, the lungs, the large intestine, the sputum in the palm of the hand and the small intestine, Zhen the heart and meridians, the triple burner meridian, then in the foot of this place, it It is also two meridians, spleen and stomach. Eight trigrams are enough for a physiological condition.
The same is true for feng shui, which uses eight trigrams . The feng shui used 64 hexagram is after the Ming dynasty, Jiang Da Hong used the compass to divide each orientation into eight small orientations, which was exactly 64. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Jiang Dahong turned it into the compass. So a lot of people asked me, Teacher Chen said that you look at Feng Shui, you don't look at the 64 hexagram method of division. I smiled. You have to know that we see feng shui on land, 64 hexagram is used for navigation, sailing. The compass is made up of one-sixth of a single cell in each cell. The earliest nautical compass was applied to the twentieth century. The British dominated and set the earth at a 360 degree. There is longitude and latitude. The longitude is 180 degrees east longitude or 180 degrees west longitude. It counts 180 degrees. Where is the zero degree? The Observatory, set up by the British government at the time, is called the Greenwich Observatory, and it operates as a 0 degree. In the operation, the French were measured, taking the equator as 0 degree, reaching the center point of the North Pole, and the center point of the Antarctic as 90 degrees. Once this went up, from the equator to the North Pole called the north latitude, to the South Pole. The equator to the south pole is called what degrees of south. This kind of thing was used in the twentieth century. It was used in the whole world in the Second World War. With airplanes as the fixed point, it is probably used now. What are the benefits of this? It is called the natural taxonomy. So why is the technology of the twentieth century, the 100 years of light can reach the 500,000 years of the progress of mankind in the past, he is using the natural classification.
