The extreme of things must be reversed, and the pole of no pole will come
Later Liang during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period had a Lizheng named Zhu Gan. (Li Zheng can be understood as the village chief)
Zhu Gan, as the head of a village in Houshang Village, usually runs rampant in the township, fishing and fleshing the people, bullying men and women, and almost doing no evil. But everyone was hindered by his identity as a lizheng, and usually dared to be angry and did not dare to speak.
Zhu Gan had a son named Zhu Da, and Zhu Da, because he was spoiled from childhood, had a virtue with his father Zhu Gan. I don't do good deeds, and I like to rob people's women. Zhu Gan was usually lazy enough to reach out to his clothes and open his mouth to eat, and never did it himself.
Even if the common people endure Zhu Gan's rampant and domineering behavior, they must also endure Zhu Da, a "stupid boy," who robbed the people's daughters.
Finally, one day, an elderly man dressed in Taoist robes came from outside, and knowing that Zhu Gan's family was in the fish and meat village, he was determined to eliminate harm for the people.
The Daoist elder came to Zhu Gan's house and told Zhu Da, "Poor Dao heard that the prince doesn't like to eat by himself?" Zhu Da replied: "Whenever you eat, you have to move the chopsticks (chopsticks), but also chew hard, not only the hands are sore and back pain, but even the teeth are painful."
The elder daoist robe smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry about the gongzi, the poor Dao has a skill, keep the gongzi worry-free, I don't know if the gongzi is willing to listen?" ”
Zhu Dayi listened and immediately nodded his head.
The Elder Dao robe asked again, "Are you eating three meals a day now?!" Zhu Da nodded again.
Dao Robe said, "You listen to me, you will eat all the food for the next week, and then the poor Dao will ensure that you will not be hungry for a week, won't you save every meal and eat everything, and never have to be tired again?" ”
Zhu Gan listened and patted his head: "Yes! "I quickly thanked the Governor for his guidance.
After the Dao Commander left, Zhu Gan asked his subordinates to prepare a full room of drinks. When Zhu Gan arrived home, he asked about the next person, "I was very curious to learn that my son was eating in the room, and this is not a meal." So when I opened the door and looked at it, I lost my color, and Zhu Da's belly rolled round, like a snake that "swallowed an elephant", and had long been dead on the spot for a long time.
Zhu Gan saw his only son die tragically on the spot, a mouthful of old blood spewed out, and within a few days, he died and died.
Later, the story of the elderly in the Taoist robes who wisely eliminated the two evils was passed down in the folk.
Many people laughed at Zhu Da for being too stupid after listening to this story. Indeed, Zhu Da was stupid.
Zhu Da does not understand the truth that "things must be reversed, and no poles must come", do we really understand clearly in real life?
A netizen submitted an article to the author and told the story of her suffering from postpartum depression.
Her name is Zheng Yan, is a very kind and sensible simple girl, she treats love regardless of herself, regardless of the opposition of the family, and finally married her beloved boy as she wished.
Since college, Zheng Yan has begun to chase her love, she believes that love not only belongs to "fairy tales", but also belongs to herself. She understands that there is nothing difficult in the world, as long as she can climb it.
During college, Zheng Yan brought the so-called "love bento" to the boys every day, one belt is two years, rain or shine, in two years, Zheng Yan gave one-fifth of her time to each other, in addition to sleeping, homework, staying with each other every day.
Sure enough, she really responded to her own words, as long as she is willing to pay, there will be gains, and the other party is finally moved by it. After graduating from college, they got married, and after marriage, Zheng Yan was even more virtuous, even if she was pregnant with Liujia, she would get up early and greedily to wash and cook for her beloved "husband", and finally they welcomed their daughter.
One day her husband was in the shower and she inadvertently looked over his phone. From then on, the nightmare began. Eventually she developed severe postpartum depression.
It turned out that her husband had been with another woman during her pregnancy, and her heart had long belonged else, and her husband promised the other party that he would divorce himself when he had given birth to a child, which was a "love fairy tale" for Zheng Yan.
A momentary blow completely crushed Zheng Yan, recalling his two years of college efforts, recalling his obscurity after marriage, full of love in exchange for the other party's indifference, Zheng Yan's heart is like ashes.
This is what netizens often say about not loving too much, things will be reversed.
How many of the simple truths will be understood when you really put them on yourself? People often only care about the present, love is the vigorous love, after the vigorous, only to find that they have long been scarred.
The seemingly simple truth that the object must be reversed contains a very deep I Ching thought.
If we stand in the perspective of the I Ching, the opposite of the object is actually the mutual transformation between "yin and yang".
So what is "yin and yang"?
To put it simply: the day is yang, the night is yin; spring and summer are yang, autumn and winter are yin; the north of the mountains and rivers is yang, and the north of the mountains and waters is yin; the singular is yang, and the even number is yin; men are yang, women are yin; the back of the hand is yang, the palm of the hand is yin; the six intestines are yang, and the five organs are yin.
Yin and yang are formed
Everything in the world is born from the combination of yin and yang, and yin and yang complement each other.
So-called, the male should be married, the female should be married, this is the yin and yang. In fact, it is repelled by the same sex, and the opposite sex attracts a truth. Yin and yang are interdependent, and men and women are interdependent and based on each other. Neither party can exist alone, and time cannot be only men, nor can it be only women. Day is inseparable from night, and night is indispensable to day. If a person wants to live, he cannot only have five internal organs and no six intestines.
"Yin" and "Yang" complement each other, are based on each other, and are interdependent.
Yin and yang fade
The two sides of yin and yang are not static, more men are less women, and fewer men are more women. There will be no situation where there are more men and women.
During the period of the War of Liberation, the total number of troops on both sides of the enemy and us generally maintained a balance of yin and yang, and with the further development of the war, our side fought more and more, on the contrary, the Kuomintang fought less and less, which is "yin and yang dissipation", and the vast majority of our newly supplemented soldiers came from enemy uprisings and captured soldiers. If the enemy is stronger than me, and the enemy is less and I am more, this is the "dissipation of yin and yang" between the enemy and us.
Yin and yang dissipate like the length of day and night in the four seasons of the year. The length of the day is the shortness of the night, the short day is the length of the night, only the spring and autumn are two minutes, and the length of day and night is equal, which is the balance of yin and yang. The reason for this phenomenon is due to the existence of the "ecliptic plane". Doesn't the zodiac reflect the wisdom of the Ancient Book of Changes? The ancients had to choose the "auspicious day of the zodiac", and the so-called "auspicious day" was nothing more than a balance of yin and yang, so that everything could be appropriate.
This tells us: when life is good, remember to converge. When life is proud, remember to look down. In times of adversity in life, remember to be patient. When life is frustrated, remember to follow the fate. Throughout history, all the famous people who died well were all retreating from the rapids and returning to the mountains and forests. Otherwise, it will be the opposite of the extreme, and the pole will not come.
This is just the word "yin and yang" in the I Ching. There are so many truths that have been derived. If you have fully understood the I Ching, then it is really possible for you to peek into the "Heavenly Opportunity".
