The book "The Unity of Knowledge and Action Wang Yangming: 21 Days of Mental Learning Daily Lessons" is the light that illuminates the heart, leads us to return to the truth, and realizes the freedom of the soul.
"The Unity of Knowledge and Action Wang Yangming: 21 Days of Mental Learning" was carefully compiled by the well-known historical and cultural writer Du Yinshan, and published by Jiangsu Phoenix Literature and Art Publishing House. Duyinshan, a communicator who skillfully integrates the wisdom of Chinese culture with modern life, has successfully extracted the essence of Wang Yangming's mind with its profound cultural heritage and keen insight, and presented it to readers in the form of a 21-day course. He is not only the founder of Shenzhen Yangming Culture Academy, but also the leader of the popularization of Yangming Mind in the world, and his work "The Unity of Knowledge and Action Wang Yangming" has sold more than one million copies, becoming a classic of Chinese culture in the hearts of countless readers.
The book is divided into 21 chapters, each of which revolves around a core idea of Wang Yangming's psychology, and helps readers gradually establish the habit of thinking through vivid cases and solid theoretical explanations. From "determination" to "unity of knowledge and action", from "heart is reason" to "inward seeking", each chapter is like a baptism of the soul, allowing readers to constantly reflect on themselves, understand themselves, and surpass themselves in the process of reading.
01 Determination and heart are reason - awaken the inner strength
In Wang Yangming's mental system, "determination" is regarded as the first step in life's struggle, and it is also a crucial step. He emphasized that if a person wants to achieve a career, he must first clarify his ambitions and goals, just like planting a seed, which needs to be watered and nurtured with heart in order to thrive. Aspiration is not only a declaration to the external world, but also a commitment to the inner heart, which stimulates the potential and motivation in our hearts, and becomes a source of strength for us to keep moving forward.
"Heart is reason" is one of the core concepts of Wang Yangming's psychology. He believes that everything in the world is born from the heart, and reason is not outside the heart, but in our heart. This thought breaks the shackles of traditional science, liberates people from the blind pursuit of the external world, and guides people to turn to inner exploration and cultivation. Through "heart is reason", we can know ourselves more deeply, understand the world, and find the meaning and value of life.
Taking Wang Yangming himself as an example, when he was young, he set up a grand ambition of "establishing a heart for heaven and earth, establishing a life for the people, continuing to learn for the saints, and opening peace for all generations". This ambition not only guides the direction of his life's struggle, but also becomes his spiritual pillar to constantly overcome difficulties and move forward bravely. In the face of political suppression, career ups and downs and other setbacks, he has always adhered to his ambitions and beliefs and never wavered. It is this firm ambition and belief that supported him through the low period of his life and finally realized his life value.
Another case is Wang Yangming's experience of enlightenment in the dragon field. During the period of being demoted to the dragon field, he faced the harsh environment and the difficulties of life, and did not choose to sink or give up, but chose to seek inward to explore his inner world through meditation and other means. In this process, he gradually realized the true meaning of "heart is reason", and understood the truth that everything in the world is born from the heart. This realization not only allowed him to find inner peace and strength, but also laid a solid foundation for his later mental thought system.
02 Martial Arts and Sincerity - Cultivating Inner Wisdom
In Wang Yangming's mental thought, "Gewu" is not simply to understand the surface phenomena of things, but to explore the essence and laws of things through practice. He believes that it is only possible to do things right if you really do the right thing; And if you want to do the right thing, you must first understand the nature and laws of things. Through "Gewu", we can better understand the world and grasp the essence and laws of things, so as to achieve better results in practice.
"Sincerity" is an important concept of moral cultivation in Wang Yangming's psychology. He stressed that in everything we do, we must maintain a sincere heart, not hypocrisy, no artificiality, and no deception. Only in this way can we win the trust and respect of others, and only then can we go further and more steadily on the road of life. Sincerity is not only respect for others, but also respect for ourselves, which allows us to stick to our principles and bottom line and maintain our inner purity and nobility in the face of temptations and challenges.
In the process of leading troops to quell the rebellion, Wang Yangming showed his excellent ability to "learn things". Faced with the situation that the enemy was strong and we were weak, he did not choose to attack blindly, but went deep behind the enemy to find the enemy's weak point and break it in one fell swoop through meticulous reconnaissance and accurate judgment. This victory not only demonstrated his outstanding military talent and wisdom, but also demonstrated his profound understanding and practice of the idea of "Gewu". He constantly explored the essence and laws of things through practice, and finally won the victory.
In daily life, Wang Yangming has always maintained a sincere attitude. He is always sincere and caring towards his family, subordinates and friends, and never fakes. This sincerity not only earned him the respect and trust of others, but also made him more comfortable in interpersonal relationships. This sincere attitude also laid a solid foundation for his later lectures and preaching activities, allowing him to attract more disciples and students to come and learn Xinxue thought.
03 Unity of knowledge and action and Mingde and proximity to the people - to achieve inner freedom
"The unity of knowledge and action" is one of the core ideas of Wang Yangming's psychology. It emphasizes the close integration of theory and practice, and believes that only by truly transforming knowledge into action and constantly testing and improving one's own understanding in practice can we achieve the realm of "unity of knowledge and action". This idea breaks the drawbacks of the separation of knowledge and action in traditional learning, and guides people to closely combine knowledge and practice to realize the organic unity of knowledge and action.
"Mingde and close to the people" is a dual requirement for personal moral cultivation and a sense of social responsibility. It requires us to constantly improve our moral cultivation and personality charm, but also to actively participate in the society, serve the public, and realize the harmony and unity of personal value and social value. Through "Mingde and People", we can better understand our social responsibility and mission, and contribute to the progress and development of society.
In his later years, Wang Yangming devoted himself to lecturing and preaching, cultivating a large number of Xinxue disciples and forming a far-reaching Xinxue school. He has not only made outstanding achievements in academics, but also practiced the concept of "unity of knowledge and action" in practice. He personally went to the fields to farm, shared weal and woe with the people, and interpreted the profound connotation of "Mingde and close to the people" with practical actions. His spirit not only won the respect and love of the people, but also left a valuable spiritual wealth for future generations.
Through these practices of Wang Yangming, we can see that "the unity of knowledge and action" and "Mingde and pro-people" are not empty slogans, but need to be practiced and experienced in our actual life. Only when we truly combine knowledge with practice, actively participate in the society, and serve the public, can we achieve inner freedom and transcendence, and find our own happiness and success.
