Every year, we have a new vision, we all hope that our lives can get better and better, and we also look forward to our own fortunes in this year. Many people may not believe it, as early as 650 years ago in the Ming Dynasty, some people predicted the fortunes of the current Year of the Tiger.
The person who made this prophecy was Liu Bowen, a famous divine operator in the Ming Dynasty. This half-immortal has a good reputation in the folk, not only because he is extremely accurate in telling fortunes for the nobles of the palace, but also because his speculations and predictions of the world are very accurate.
For the fortunes of the Year of the Tiger, Liu Bowen only said one sentence: "The poor will stay 10,000 for 1,000, and the rich will keep 23 for 10,000." This sentence has been interpreted by countless people and is called the most accurate horoscope of the Year of the Tiger, so what does this sentence really mean?
The most powerful founding hero of the Ming Dynasty, two words accurately predicted the fall of the Ming Dynasty
Before answering this sentence, let's first understand who Liu Bowen really is. After Zhu Yuanzhang conquered the world and established the Ming Dynasty, it was Zhu Yuanzhang who stabilized the society by military force, and it was liu Bowen who stabilized the society spiritually and culturally.
As the elder who followed Zhu Yuanzhang in the southern conquest of the northern war, Liu Bowen himself did not have any combat ability, he could not do martial arts, nor could he lead troops, but Zhu Yuanzhang was an indispensable helper in the conquest of the land of Shenzhou.
Why? Because Liu Bowen is really too powerful, the transition of dynasties, the end of the Yuan dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, the era when the cultural level of the people at the bottom is basically zero, Liu Bowen has been able to know astronomy, geography, and the general trend of the world.
What is even more outrageous is that Liu Bowen's knowledge is almost always mastered by self-study, and this terrible learning ability is probably only comparable to Zhuge Liang. It is this kind of genius who has made indelible contributions to assisting Zhu Yuanzhang on the road to becoming a king.
Because of him, zhu Yuanzhang was able to block the mouths of everyone under his hands when he was seeking dynastic orthodoxy. Liu Bowen used his astronomical knowledge and his understanding of Chinese culture to shape Zhu Yuanzhang into a savior and establish a mass foundation for the emperor to stabilize the country.
While creating the glorious image of Zhu Yuanzhang, Liu Bowen was also creating a half-immortal image for himself, so that the people could see themselves as a god with magic power to the heavens, so as to avoid the open guns and dark arrows from everywhere.
It was also for this reason that after Zhu Yuanzhang stabilized the government and the opposition, he began to purge the former heroes on a large scale, and Liu Bowen saved his life by virtue of his reputation among the people.
After Zhu Yuanzhang stabilized the hearts of the army, he even asked Liu Bowen to predict the fate of the Ming Dynasty, and Liu Bowen of course knew that zhu Yuanzhang was designing to kill himself.
Therefore, he chose a more vague way, and it passed, but Zhu Yuanzhang still pursued it and had to ask whether the Ming Dynasty could continue the foundation of the ming dynasty. Liu Bowen was very shrewd, and he did not answer directly, but only said to Zhu Yuanzhang that Daming could guarantee "eternal standing in the country."
Originally just a polite sentence, but in the long river of history evolved into an accurate prophecy, the last emperor of Daming is the Yongli Emperor (Southern Ming), Daming is also destroyed in the hands of the Yongli Emperor, which is to save the "Yongli Jiangshan", which can be described as a wonderful pun.
Of course, this is the last word, after Zhu Yuanzhang's world situation was basically stable, Liu Bowen was sure that he did not have the disaster of killing, so he began to have time to compile his own works, he compiled his own understanding of society into a book, and wrote the future situation into the book.
The book was widely circulated in the society at that time, almost a popular book for everyone, and Liu Bowen gave it a very strange and interesting name, called "The Song of Burning Cakes".
It is also in this book that he predicts the fortunes of the Year of the Tiger in later generations, saying the classic two sentences: "The poor have 10,000 and 1,000, and the rich have 10,000 and 23." ”
Is the Year of the Tiger a year of disaster? Liu Bowen's two sentences teach you to eliminate disasters and solve difficulties
So, what exactly do these two sentences mean? Let's answer them one by one. First of all, we must understand that these two poems were not conceived by Liu Bowen out of thin air, but the essence of this master's summary in observing the lives of all kinds of people in the human world.
First of all, Liu Bowen predicted in the book that the Year of the Tiger will be a year of great disasters, the sun and the moon are upside down, the chaos is chaotic, there are many disasters and difficulties, the people are displaced, the hunger is thousands of miles, and the earth is a tragic scene. The first verse of the poem, the poor leave 10,000 a thousand, is Liu Bowen's most direct expression of the fortunes of the poor during the disaster years.
Through Liu Bowen's observation of the people at that time, he found that the poor people's ability to survive in the chaotic world was extremely tenacious. Because there is nothing to lose, poor people simply break the jar and break it, and they can face the difficulties of life.
Then, by surviving on their own, they re-examine their situation and recreate their lives, so that a thousand of the ten thousand poor can survive.
In the second sentence, it is more cruel for the rich to leave 23,000, based on Liu Bowen's observation of high-ranking nobles, the rich are bound by their own family wealth.
When encountering a disaster, it is not easy to choose, which will lead to a situation in which people will eventually have two people and two money, and then they will be out of control and their families will be destroyed.
The rich in the chaotic world have been shackled a lot, but they cannot survive, and eventually lose everything, and one or two out of ten thousand rich people can survive.
Two sentences of meaning for the new era
Although these two sentences have the limitations of the times, Liu Bowen's words were also written for people in the feudal period, but this does not prevent us from understanding it, and these two sentences are enough to bring us many warnings today.
As described in Berwyn's prophecy, our world is becoming more and more polluted, more and more disasters, and more and more natural disasters. Now, many people in the world are not living well, and the quality of life is as uneven as described in Liu Bowen's poem.
It is also increasingly difficult for the people to find their own positioning and clarify their life goals. Therefore, these two sentences teach us that no matter when, do not pay too much attention to material things, do not pay too much attention to their own property, do not be blinded by fame and fortune, safety and health is the most important.
People should shift their attention from how much money they have to how healthy they are and how much they care about their families, so that they can leave no regrets, so liu Bowen's two sentences are still desirable.
Although we have entered the new China today and fully embraced the scientific life, these two sentences teach us not to covet wealth, actively embrace our families, and release a positive attitude towards life, which still deserves our attention.
Fate is innumerable, as long as we correct our mentality, life and love life, no matter how accurate the language of the ancients is, it can be easily resolved by us and successfully passed. What do you think about that?
