The roads you have traveled, the books you have read, and the scenery you have seen are like food and water that feed your cultivation.
When a person's cultivation is externalized in his deeds, he will be manifested in his appearance.
Your every move, every smile, reflects your cultivation.
As the saying goes, "The eyes are the windows of the soul."
A man's gaze comes from his inner world. From a person's gaze, we can also read his cultivation.
People's language can be fake, and people's identity can also be fake, but a person's gaze is highly anti-counterfeiting. Because a person can easily change his clothing, but it is difficult to change his gaze.
According to the "New Language of the World":
At that time, Cao Cao, as an envoy of the Xiongnu, thought that his form was not enough to show his heavenly might to the powerful country in the distance, so he specially asked Cui Jijue to act as an ambassador on his behalf, and he himself stood by the sword as a servant.
Afterwards, someone asked the envoy, "How is the King of Wei?" The Xiongnu emissary replied that the Wei King's form was not unusual, but the sword-wielding person next to him who was shining brightly was a true hero.
Good people will send out their own pure and kind eyes, to distinguish between truth and falsehood, to discover beauty, to choose good beauty.
And the heart is not right, the eyes can not hide his ugliness, a person is beautiful, if there is evil hidden in the eyes, then this person must not be good.
Zeng Guofan also said in the Classic of The Book of Ting:
"If you know it, your chest is right, and your chest is not right." Those who are black and yellow have guts; those who are pale yellow and dark yellow are bold and wise."
The gist is: the mind of the person with bright eyes is correct, and the mind of the person who cannot see clearly is not correct. People with yellow eyes have guts; the pale yellow and dark yellow in the eyeballs are clearly distinguished, and the courage is large and intelligent. The person with the eyes facing upwards is arrogant, the person who is facing downwards has anxiety in his heart, and the person who looks at him with his head tilted is ill-intentioned. People with stable eyes that resemble meteor lightning will be expensive, and people whose eyes are chaotic and speak loudly are annoying.
Therefore, when you look at the face and recognize people, there is truth hidden in the eyes, and good and evil are hidden in the pupils.
Zeng Guofan was known as the "first minister of ZTE" in the late Qing Dynasty.
He once said, "We must not use people outside of our work, and we must predict people when we employ them.", and in the process of accomplishing his life's work, the art of looking at people's faces played a great role.
Zeng Guofan also made a mantra according to the method of observing people:
Evil looks at the eyes and nose, and true and false looks at the lips.
Fame looks at the spirit, and wealth looks at the spirit.
The idea looks at the finger claws, and the wind waves look at the tendons.
If you want to look at the organization, it's all in the language.
Zeng Guofan wanted to choose a doorman, and three people came.
Zeng Guofan looked at the three people separately, and Li Hongzhang asked Zeng Guofan what he thought of these three people, and Zeng Guofan said, "The people on the left can be used small, the people on the right cannot be used, and the people in the middle can be used greatly."
Li Hongzhang asked why, and Zeng Guofan said:
"The man on the left, his eyes dodging, cowering and shrinking, did not dare to look at me, in the middle of this, I looked at him, he also looked at me with dignity, indicating that this person has a broad heart; and the person on the right, looking left and right, looks bad."
The person who Zeng Guofan said that could be of great use in the middle was Liu Mingchuan, the later famous Inspector of Taiwan.
As the saying goes: "Life is made by oneself, and phase is born from the heart."
Zeng Guofan's recognition of talents is precisely through a person's eyes and appearance.
The human soul can be reflected in appearance, just like the "look, smell and cut" of Chinese medicine. People's faces are connected to people's emotions, and people's emotions reflect people's cultivation.
Some people think that looking at people is too arbitrary, is a kind of paranoia, and has no theoretical basis.
The reason why people think this is because most people do not have the extraordinary ability to recognize people like Zeng Guofan.
Whether a person has cultivation or not is written on his face.
