【 Daren Health 00 1 】 Huangdi Neijing ~ Ancient Naivety (1)

Cite the original Huangdi Neijing, refer to Qu Limin's Huangdi Neijing Compilation and Xu Wenbing and Liang Dong's Huangdi Neijing Theory, and sort it out.

Once upon a time, in the Yellow Emperor, he was born as a god, weak and eloquent, young and fair, long and sensitive, and achieved success.

Teacher Qu Limin said that reading the first sentence of the first article is a very important part of reading China's ancient classics. "Yesterday in the Yellow Emperor" is not limited to the birth of the Yellow Emperor in the past, but can be extended to a group of new humans after the flood era. Every child is born as "God", and "God" here means "life beyond imagination". After a child is born, he has his own thinking logic and will ask some philosophical questions, such as "Who am I", "Where do I come from" and "Where should I go", which lies in the innate wisdom of "weak and eloquent". "Being young and fair to others" refers to the performance of youth and balanced development of body and mind. "Long and sensitive" refers to the period after puberty, when people gradually enter the prime of life, with strong body and agile skills. The last sentence "Ascension to Heaven" describes the old times.

"Ancient naivety" comes from Taoism's emphasis on "Taoism is natural". The so-called "innocence" is the ability given to us by nature. The above 24 words in the original text are about the life of the Yellow Emperor. When the Yellow Emperor was born, he had the ability to communicate with the gods of heaven and earth, which extended to the innate ability of children after birth, that is, whether they were smart or not. In ancient times, "weak crown" refers to people under the age of 20, so "weak but able to speak" means that they spoke eloquently and were brilliant when they were young. Huangdi studied with famous teachers since childhood, and Neijing was also written according to the dialogue between Huangdi and Qi Bo. Therefore, "young and impartial" is an important step for the Yellow Emperor to become famous, that is, the guidance of famous teachers. "Long and sensitive" not only describes the honest appearance of the Yellow Emperor, but also expresses his humility and modesty. After the Yellow Emperor unified the whole country, he went to the mountains to practice. When he reached the real dragon, he took the Yellow Emperor to heaven and brought him to the real world. In the present words, this is a success. Therefore, these 24 words in the world are about the life of a successful person. The Taoist way to success is called "returning to nature", which aims to preserve a person's pure nature. If you want to stay healthy, you must identify things that incite people and make them want to burn, and stay away from unrealistic things that drive you crazy.

I am not a person who can read ancient Chinese. A simple understanding of the 24 words in the original text is the life of the Yellow Emperor. Huang Di was born as a god. He was outstanding in literary talent when he was a child, and he was guided by a famous teacher when he was a child. He is also a pillar of talent when he is an adult, and he will become an immortal when he is old.

Compared with our present life, children are not born gods, but they are all spiritual. Children's spirituality is embodied in knowing their way of life from birth and expressing their needs through laughter and crying. The three-character scripture says: "At the beginning of life, human nature is good. Sex is similar and learning is far away. " Today's genetic engineering research tells us that people are not born the same. Every family has different genes passed down from generation to generation. So children can't be the same at birth. As the old saying goes, "A dragon gives birth to a dragon, a phoenix gives birth to a phoenix, and a mouse's child can make holes." This is a truth. Although this is cruel, it is really "rough words are not rough." Only by understanding the child's nature can it help the child's future development.

As far as "weak but able to talk" is concerned, how many children stand in front of the stage and make speeches generously at the age of weak crown? Yes! Very few. We saw them on the news. Parents, friends and the elderly at home are well aware of these gaps. Therefore, on the grounds that "children can't lose at the starting line", they began to report various remedial classes to their children from the age of 2-3, and made up for their congenital condition the next day. Can you produce talents? Sure! It is also a very small number! Because the prerequisite is genes, children must be smart enough and have enough resistance to stress. Why don't children like to talk now? There are still many children with TIC problems? Mainly because of pressure, parents' pressure, family pressure, school pressure, social environment pressure ... When we talk about these pressures, we don't mean school study (of course, I don't think homework is pressure now), but parents' attitudes, demands and even ways of speaking. So, is "weak words" really that difficult? Not exactly. We instill a lot of things into our children, but inadvertently obliterate many of their natures. Children love to play! If you watch carefully, you will find that the children are discussing some interesting things, and there are many topics. They are all very happy and dancing. But I'm afraid not many people can make this topic clear. Because playing is nature, children can naturally be "weak but articulate."

"Young and fair" was interpreted by Qu Limin as the golden age of adolescence, while Xu Wenbing and Liang Dong were interpreted as being guided by famous teachers when they were young. There is no difference in essence, just a different perspective. We have to admit that the schoolwork after 12 years old is the heaviest in life, both in content and quantity. Both the senior high school entrance examination and the college entrance examination are screening examinations. This test is for children, teachers and parents. The demand of children and parents for famous teachers is simply a major focus of life. When you meet a famous teacher, you can make your child benefit for a lifetime; If you don't meet a famous teacher, even a genius may encounter waterloo. On the other hand, a person's lifelong teacher is actually himself. Mortgage your future on others, it is better to follow your own pace, meet a teacher to point out the direction, and then look for the direction yourself.

The requirement of "long and sensitive" is actually not easy at present. Basically, there are too many "anxious" and "sensitive" places in the current situation. "Dun" means thick. Teacher Qu Limin explained that people often grow very thick in their prime, while teachers Xu Wenbing and Liang Dong explained that they are honest and upright. But people nowadays are basically only thick and smooth, which makes people look greasy. If it is too heavy, it is difficult to achieve intelligence and agility in the traditional sense. Overweight can also bring various diseases, and "four highs" (hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, hypertension and hyperuricemia) is a typical example. Can thin people get these diseases? Sure, but basically they are all thin limbs and big bellies. How can we express it as "sensitive"? "Long and sensitive" has also become a state that we adults pursue. Therefore, many people begin to exercise and lose weight, hoping to "rejuvenate" (please forgive me for using this word). In fact, the "long and sensitive" period is the best period of life. In today's words, it is a period of "salty, sweet, sour and bittersweet" and capable of coping with any situation.

I think "success can be understood as the success of life and the end of life." Many people are unhappy in their later years. Many old people laugh at themselves and say, "Living is enough." This is a social situation. Modern old people don't have children around like in ancient times. They occasionally do work and are busy with housework, and year after year will pass. Old people are more anxious than young people now. Where did it come from? Mainly the habits of life and self. We are always asking: "Is the old man getting worse or the bad man getting old now?" Actually, nothing has changed. It's desire! Adhering to the concept of "many years' daughter-in-law makes a woman", what you can't get when you are young will be willfully obtained when you are old. Do you think a successful person, or an old man with a peaceful mind, will still care about willfulness when he is old? I'm afraid what he wants to do most is cultivate one's morality, raise flowers and grass, find a beautiful place to settle down and spend his old age safely. Therefore, this "success and success" of old age actually comes at a price. The price is the previous 12 words "weak but eloquent, young and impartial, long and sensitive", and all our growth is for the final "success and success".

Neijing explains our life from a few words at the beginning. After reflection, we can understand that at all stages of life, our experiences are different, and naturally there will be different results, but we all need to do it step by step. The reason why the Yellow Emperor was able to "achieve greatness and ascend to heaven" was that he persisted in his original intention and remained loyal to it. Then we might as well find our initial heart, make our life simpler and easier, and it will be easier to reach the realm of "success and success".
