11, Zhuangzi Outer Chapter: Deliberately

Inspirational and pretentious, white and self-proclaimed. Escaping from society and disgusted with vulgarity.

Pure talk, cynicism. As a dissident, I think very highly of myself. Hermits in the field love to come to this set. They're out of place. In the twilight years, he complained even more, and finally committed suicide by jumping into the river.

Proclaim righteousness and speak faithfulness. Be frugal and self-denying, and be humble to others. As the inheritor of traditional culture, he attaches great importance to personal ideological cultivation, and scholars who are half in the opposition and half in the DPRK are the most fond of this set.

They are engaged in cultural and educational activities, traveling and lecturing in their youth, and teaching at home in their old age.

Full of political achievements and establish an image. Monarchs and ministers are courteous, respectful and orderly. As a person in power at all levels, he stressed the need to rectify society in order to achieve stability. The dignitaries in the court loved to come to this set.

They worship the monarch, strengthen the country, expand the territory, and are so busy that they are tired to death.

Afraid of trouble, greedy for quiet. Moved to the mountains and learned to fish. As a loser in social competition, he refuses to do any more business. Idlers in the field love to come to this set. They have no merit and no name, they are far away from the red dust, and they no longer care about society, but they just want to be neither busy nor tired.

Take a deep breath and breathe through the dantian. Playing Tai Chi and practicing crane stakes. As a believer in the philosophy of life, it is more important to grow old and not die than anything else. In both the government and the opposition, there are some scholars who like to come to this set. They insisted on exercising, paying attention to maintenance, and envied Peng Zu to live 800 years old.

In addition to these five types of taxi, there is another category. They don't need to be inspirational and have a high character, forgetting benevolence and righteousness and cultivating themselves. Stability is achieved without political achievements, home is not in the mountains and forests but is equally leisurely, never exercising and still living a long life. Everything has been discarded, and everything has been completed. Their tranquil spirit and unrestricted openness have inspired many Jasic to follow. Why are they? By the way of heaven, by virtue.

Tranquil, lonely, empty, still, inaction. This system is the most spiritual level in heaven and earth, and it is the highest standard for cultivating morality. This criterion requires the saint to rest in his worldly thoughts. When the mundane worries are gone, the situation will be peaceful and comfortable. When the situation is smooth, the spirit is calm. The tranquil spirit and the smooth situation are enough to dispel troubles and resist evil spirits. In this way, the saint's virtues will be perfected, and his spirit will not be wasted. Approximately, I have already said it in the "Heavenly Dao Chapter".

This criterion requires that the saint, born and follow the development of nature; death, involved in changes in the substance; Quiet, yin-like condensation; Moving, yang-like fluctuations. I have already said the same thing in the "Heavenly Dao Chapter".

In addition, this criterion requires that the saint does not have to pray for the blessings of future generations in advance, and should not take the lead in bringing disaster to the future. For the sake of politics, don't look for trouble, it's best to get by, like singing, don't lead the singing, it's best to be harmonious. Subjective initiative should not be strengthened, but weakened. Let's sit back and wait for the conditions to be ripe before we start, and we don't have to make a fuss in advance. The heart must be cut off, the wisdom tank must be torn apart, and it will be resigned to fate and benefit a lot.

Self-cultivation and governing the country, all of the above aspects are done, the saint will not attract the resentment of God, will not be affected by foreign objects, will not be rejected by the emperor, and will not listen to the scolding of wild ghosts. The people saw him as brilliant and lovely without dazzling, and found him trustworthy and not as expected. He is idle, does not think deeply, does not delve deeply. He is transparent, not conspiratorial, not conspiratorial. Don't dream when you sleep, don't worry when you wake up. Raw is foam, a brief float. Death is rest, eternal enjoyment. His spirit is simple, his soul is clear. Void and tranquil, he reached the highest standard of cultivation and virtue.

Measured by the standard of cultivating virtue, sadness and joy are the deviation of virtue, joy and anger are the errors of reason, and love and disgust are the abnormalities of the mentality. Therefore, a high degree of morality should be to forget sorrow and joy, not to be happy or angry, and to have no good or evil. A high degree of stillness is single-mindedness and is not shaken by changes in the outside world, and a high degree of emptiness is tolerance and does not offend the outside world. A high degree of tranquility is independence, not to contact the outside world. A high degree of pure harmony does not interfere with the outside world.

Tranquility, loneliness, emptiness, stillness, and inaction are the highest standards of cultivation and virtue, which are inseparable and self-contained. Contrary to this criterion, joys and sorrows, joys and sorrows, likes and dislikes, consume people's energy; Shake, offend, liaise, interfere, drain people's physical strength. If you don't stop exerting yourself, you will be exhausted. If the energy is exhausted, it will be emaciated. These emaciated and exhausted people are most common among the hermit class who hold political dissidents, in the bachelor class who inherit traditional culture, and in the prominent class who hold power at all levels.

Please observe the bottle water, tank water, pool water, river water, and sea water, and you can understand the water nature, and the water nature is clear. Filter out impurities and the water will be clear. Water-based Hihei. If you don't stir it, the water will be flat, and the water will not like to be closed. As soon as it is closed, it will be turbid (hun4) and will no longer be clear. You can see that the water is mimicking the weather. The weather is clear when the fog is clear, the wind is quiet if it doesn't blow, and the clouds are closed and turbid. Therefore, the water-based nature is the projection of heavenly virtue. Can people imitate the nature of water and imitate the virtues of heaven?

Yes. Get rid of the impurities of habit dyeing, and you will be pure. Not being shaken by external objects, it is calm. If you cut off diplomacy and don't contact the outside world, you will be indifferent. Open yourself, tolerate everything, and there is nothingness. Even if there is activity, it is not intentional, and it is in harmony with nature. This is the way to maintain the spirit.

Jiangnan Wu Guo Yue country, smelting technology is fine, forging the sword, the world is famous, whoever buys the Wu Yue sword, will lock the box, as a family heirloom, do not want to wear, dare not use it. The principle of cultivating essence is the same as accumulating strength, and the human spirit cannot be used in vain.

The most dynamic thing in human beings is the spirit. The spiritual shot penetrates any barrier, and shoots infinitely far from east, west, north and south, piercing through the sky and penetrating the earth. Spiritual remote sensing of all things, remote control of all things, remote change of all things, remote maintenance of all things. The human spirit is a branch of the cosmic spirit. The spirit comes and goes without a trace. The spirit is the God in the human body, with the function of creation, which is equivalent to the emperor and the queen earth.

The avenue is pure and simple, simple and clear. There are many things that the ascetic has given up, but there is one thing that must be kept, and that is the spirit. When the spirit is well guarded, the soul and the body will no longer contradict each other, they will no longer be divided, and they will become one. This is a small universe of harmony and self-sufficiency. This One is closely connected with the great universe, runs synchronously, and is in harmony with the principles of nature, through which the cultivator attains enlightenment. No wonder as the saying goes, "Money is in charge." The reputation of the Qing officials is important. The Magi pursue their ideals. The saint keeps the spirit. ”

The simplicity of the avenue determines the whiteness of the cultivator, and rejects all kinds of emotional colors such as sorrow, joy, anger, and dislike. The purity of the Great Dao determines the inaction of the cultivator, who refuses to waver, transgresses, contacts, and interferes with the outside world. If you are white and inactive, your spirit will certainly not be wasted.

Those who can fully embody the pure and inactive can be called real people, and real people are also people, people who are at the top, people who are top-notch.
