Being able to possess the words of Li Yan's life, go deep into them, and communicate with his words is an obsession in life at the age of forty. At that time, I was the main administrative leader in a remote grassroots unit, eager for the practice and implementation of Confucianism at the grassroots level of "that small piece", and maintaining an internal sobriety about Li Zhen's rebellion.
"Double Eleven" Tmall Shopping Festival, my daughter helped me realize the idea of "owning". The original price is more than 7900 yuan, and the shopping festival is 3900 yuan. In fact, this large-scale price reduction is a reasonable regression of supply and demand through a time node. There are probably no more than ten people in China who insist on getting this set of things into their own study.
A Chinese, it makes sense to read Li Zhen. Li Yan was a fierce rebel against Confucian orthodoxy. Yes, it is "rebellion" rather than "opposition" in the usual sense. This makes the meaning of reading Li Yan more complicated.
1. Through the reading of Li Zhen, you can purge the Confucianism that you have long accepted, been influenced and influenced, which is conducive to identifying and eliminating the toxins in those thoughts. Stay away from something, it's toxic no matter how much you can not care. The medicine you take every day, his "side effects" you must know.
2. Li Zhen's fierce reaction to Confucianism was a rebellion within the Confucian "circle of thought", a rebellion that occurred in the traditional period when Confucianism played a leading role, and a reaction to Eastern thought launched with the weapon of Eastern thought. This is also to say that his fierce reaction to Confucianism did not come from non-Confucianism, from modern and contemporary times, nor from Western thought. This is of very special significance to us. You can figure out the part of the "hard wound" that Confucianism has problems from no matter from what point of view, which era, which culture. You can be a deep admirer of Confucianism, but that doesn't bother you to be a "sober" admirer, i.e., not to accept his "hard wounds."
3. Most importantly, for thousands of years, Confucianism has invaded And spread too deeply and too long in China, becoming something that most people "accept without thinking", which is a very bad situation. It may not matter whether Confucianism is right or wrong, but what matters is that this situation of "being accepted without thinking" has made generation after generation of Chinese lose the ability to think independently. Reading Li Zhen, his sharpness can make people sting their thoughts and restore the impulse and desire to think independently. Of all the meanings, I think this is the most important.
With This set of texts by Li Zhen, the price is a little bigger, but compared with the complete reading, it is really a "ququ" small thing. Because the reading of Li Zhen's 26 thick books of text is definitely a "big project" of a person's life. Fortunately, life is short, and setting up some such goals that may exceed the length of life can make life appear more magnificent, more profound, and more able to break through the challenges and crises in front of life, so that you can face them fearlessly. At the very least, you can pretend to be fearless.
Life is like this. Sometimes you can pretend to be indifferent, but in fact it is your true attitude of doing nothing. The persistence of life is just a drama into the drama, immersed in it and unable to extricate itself!
