The "Monument of Master Wei" is "Monument to Master Wei of Renjingguan in Runzhou, Tang Dynasty", which was erected on November 15, 2007 of the second year of Tang Yifeng (677), with a history of more than 1,300 years, and is one of the few well-preserved early Tang Dynasty inscriptions in Jiangsu. The monument was relocated from Dantu Huayang Temple to Jiaoshan Stele Forest in 1961. The stele is 242 cm high and 87 cm wide, and was written by Anding Hu Chubin, a scholar of The Right History of Tang Zhongshu and Chongwenguan, the Book of Zhang Deyan of Qinghe, the Engraving of Xu Xiufang in the East China Sea, and the Mantong Chisel of Stonemason Mantong.
There are two main reasons for the misconception of the inscription of the "Wei Master Stele" by later generations: (1). It is wrong because the writing is a variant that is not recognized. (2). Due to its age, the text in this place has been weathered and peeled off and blurred, and it is wrong to replace it with a suspected word and box.
In the old Zhi "Monument of Master Wei", there is "Xuanzhu has sunk into the net to seek what to gain", of which "for" is wrong and should be "elephant". The word is a variation of the image. As shown in the figure:
"The pearl has sunk, and the net elephant's request is not obtained." The Yellow Emperor played on the north bank of chishui, climbed the peak of Kunlun Mountain and looked south, and soon returned and lost The Xuanzhu. Send the brilliant intellect to search for it but fail to find it, send the discerning Li Zhu to search for it but fail to find it, and send the good at hearing and arguing to search for it and fail to find it. So let the unwise, ignorant, and unheard-of XiangYi look for it, and Xiangyi found the Xuanzhu. The Yellow Emperor said, "Strange! Can the elephant be found?"
Among them, the net is ancient. "Reckless Elephant" is also known as "Elephant Reckless" and "Mu Swelling". "History of Confucius's Family", "Star Maple Victory", "Youyang Miscellaneous Tricks", "Historical Records" and so on are all used, which originally refers to the name of a water monster, becoming Xuanying Shuyun "heartless". The fable is found in the "Heaven and Earth" chapter, whose text is clouded: "The Yellow Emperor traveled to the north of the Red Water, climbed the hill of Kunlun and looked south, and returned to his Xuanzhu Yan." Let the knowledge be unavoidable, make it impossible to leave Zhu (the one with the best eyesight), and make it impossible to eat the curse. It is to make the elephant reckless, and the image to be reckless. The Yellow Emperor: Strange! Is it possible to get it? ”。 Lu Huiqing, a Song Dynasty, noted the clouds: "Elephant is not nothing, reckless is not existent, non-existent is not nothing, not ignorant and not ignorant, the reason why this Xuanzhu is also obtained." Guo Songtao zhuyun: "If he who is like a reckless person is visible, if he is invisible, he will get it with his eyes." "Combining these interpretations." Here it symbolizes a state of natural harmony in which there is no prejudice, no existence, no nothingness, and the unity of virtual reality. For "Xuan Zhu". The Anthology of Literature Liu Xiaobiao's "Treatise on The Wide Renunciation" quotes Sima Yun: "Xuanzhu, Yu Daoye. Cheng Xuanyingshu said: "Xuan Ze is estranged from the eyes, pearls are precious treasures, and those who want to understand the world are all confused in body and mind, galloping and delaying, unaware, secretly like the north, moving like flowing water, and lost the truth and lost the way, which is the reason for this." They all directly regard the "Xuanzhu" as the "Tao" of the metaphysical essence of the Taoists. In a nutshell, this parable is intended to show that the way of authenticity cannot be grasped by the senses, words, and reason. Only by abandoning all subjective prejudices, eliminating the dualistic opposition between the subject and the guest, and adopting an attitude of unintentional, unintentional, and natural, can we truly obtain it. It can be seen that Zhuangzi's purpose of using the "Xuanzhu" metaphor of the "Tao" is to strengthen the metaphysics, transcendence and mysteriousness of the "Tao".
2. In the "Monument of Master Wei" compiled by the Jiaoshan Inscription Museum in Zhenjiang, there is a sentence that "Cheng Que Shu Ji ZongMeng flowed in the Hundred Dynasties".
What is the meaning of "Cheng Que Shuji"? Que is a concept of the Tao or category, and que is a type of object built on a road to indicate that from this point the walker is about to enter a "prescribed area." It can be a cultural, geographical, economic, political normative marker. For example, the que at the entrance of the imperial palace is the place used to issue decrees in ancient times, and is the name of the double pillar erected at the entrance of large buildings such as the ancient court. The eastern que is called the Canglong Que, and the northern que is called the Xuanwu Que. When it is not used as a surname, it also represents the meaning of gongque, chengque. But for buildings, it is not to loosen the foundation but to consolidate the foundation.
In fact, in the "Monument of Master Wei", there is also a sentence of "branching the tree, taking root and abundant". Cheng Gu tong presents, refers to the single stem of the seedling growing into a large tree is a continuous process of branches on the stem and branches on the branches. Each newly generated process can produce other processes, which can form a program tree. "Fengqi" refers to education. "Poetry Daya Wen Wang Yousheng": "Fengshui Youqian [qǐ], King Wu is not Shi; "It refers to the emperor's deduction of education for his descendants to the people of the country, and the establishment of wide schools for the national reserve talents." Refers to the education and cultivation of children and grandchildren by ordinary people. Yuan Wulai's poem "Sending Erchen to School at the Beginning": "Feng Qianwu Yi Plot, Song MiaoNing Long." Ming Zhangmao's poem "Furong Bookstore": "Looking back at the reading place in the past years, the hibiscus on the creek is fengfeng. Ten thousand books are passed on incense, and there are phoenix hairs for Shi Rui. Therefore, "Cheng Que Shu Ji" is actually "Cheng Shu Shu Ji". The reason why seedlings can become towering trees is because of the loose soil foundation. The reason why Wei Xian was able to become a mage was because he was an official for three generations of his ancestors, and he received a good family education from an early age. In the old stele, there is "Ji Lin Qi, Yuan Gong Mai Wu Chen." Cheng Shu shu ji, zongmeng flowed in the hundred generations. that said.
