Heaven: the root of strong culture and weak culture

In the TV series Heaven, Ding Yuanying defined the foreign culture at that time as a strong culture and the traditional culture of China as a weak culture. He believes that China culture depends on the kindness of parents, friends, God, bodhisattvas and emperors.

Ding Yuanying: "The younger generation thinks that the traditional concept stays on the word' dependence'. You can rely on your parents at home, your friends when you go out, and the kindness of God, Bodhisattva and Emperor. In short, you can rely on anything except yourself.

This is a cultural attribute problem that has been precipitated for thousands of years, and it takes several new cultural movements to be enlightened.

"

That's why I'm so ignorant and shallow If you have a chance today, just think about it, just say it, and don't spray it if you don't like it.

Let's talk about the west first.

Strong culture is a culture that follows the laws of things, but the changes of objective laws are not transferred by human will.

Everything depends on time, place and conditions!

This is the essence of the strong culture defined by Ding Yuanying, that is, the materialism of philosophy.

Western culture originated from ancient Greek and Roman civilizations. The basic geographical environment is multi-island.

Therefore, agriculture in ancient Greece was very small and food could not be self-sufficient (Solon prohibited the export of food, only allowed the export of oil and wine).

At the same time, maritime trade is developed, so there will be such a situation, outsiders often come and go, and the commodity economy is increasingly developed.

What is the most important thing in commodity trading? Contract.

How to maintain the contract when the law is not perfect?

That is a better myth than morality, which binds you with unknowable power.

So if you look at western myths, many gods appear out of thin air. You don't know where they came from?

At this point, the western world is divided into two, the mythical world and the real world.

What are the characteristics of the western ideological world? It is the norm of the real world and maintains the rapid development of commodity economy, so productivity and efficiency are the basis of western thought.

It is not difficult to understand that the industrial revolution and management science in the west are easier to develop.

In the ancient myth of the origin of ideas, Jingwei fills the sea, Kuafu chases the sun, and descendants shoot the sun. When foreign countries worship the sun god, we have a hero who bows at the sun god. We dare to fight against nature. It cannot be said that China's traditional culture is a weak culture.

So why did Ding Yuanying say that China traditional culture is a weak culture?

Compared with the west, ancient China had a natural economy and developed agriculture.

Social life depends heavily on agriculture and land.

Without independent industry and commerce, contractual relations naturally cannot develop.

Instead, it adapts to the natural economy, and the social structure is linked by blood relationship, forming a patriarchal clan system with the clan as the core, and the hierarchical status is established according to blood relationship.

Society equals dynasty, and the premise of social stability is the stability of dynasty.

So, what does our myth do? It was decided by heaven that the emperor was the oldest.

Our myth comes from reality. Most of the characters are born to heaven, and the biggest one is the emperor.

If you make up a Titan conflict, it's death.

The myth full of imagination is still so, and the thoughts of Buddhism, Confucianism and Taoism also maintain social stability to a great extent.

There is a saying in History of Han Dynasty: The philosophers originated in Wang Guan.

Confucius began to learn from the Zhou Dynasty, and the six arts of "poetry" and "book" he taught were almost the latest among the philosophers.

Ancient learning is hidden in the government, and it is hereditary. Most people still can't learn it.

Later, when Zhou Dong moved, disputes between big countries and small countries continued, and officials had to make a living with knowledge, so official learning gradually spread to civilians.

Can the academics of official schools still make you proud?

Of course, this is the necessity of our historical development, and we need the state to maintain the normal order of society.

You can't say that you are not satisfied and do it, and you can overthrow it if you are oppressed by a little power.

It is only the initial environment that determines our culture.

We can't help but say that this has caused a certain inertia of thinking. There used to be an emperor sitting there to see if he would give it or not. You said that if you are a businessman, you are still at the bottom, and it is the mainstream of society to ask the emperor for officials.

For example, we often ask ourselves what we don't understand, and some netizens ask me some questions.

Sometimes, it's quite helpless. The judgment of one thing must be concrete, concrete analysis, as Ma Likezhe said, everything depends on time, place and conditions!

If you have time to ask me, why not see what conditions you have to achieve your goal? What conditions can be created? This is much more practical than asking me.

Therefore, it is not unreasonable that the West sometimes operates by its own personal heroism.

Summary: Is China a weak culture? Yes or no, if we aim at the economic efficiency of the West, China may indeed be dwarfed. After all, we won't go there.

As for where to go, some people say that heaven and man are one, and heaven and earth are harmonious.

I am short of talent, so I haven't thought clearly for the time being.

Finally, show the desire to survive.

Any culture is inheritance, take its essence and discard its dross.

It is the weak culture that depends on the sky, the ground and the emperor's favor. If there is, we will change it and encourage it.

If you are interested in the concept of heaven and want to know more, I suggest reading the original book The Distant Savior.

Although the play is concise, there are too many omissions.

Read it a few times more and read it again, and you will see it more clearly and have more spirit.

Therefore, drink less meaningless wine, spend more time studying and practice more professional skills to really improve yourself. This is the right way.

There is nothing wrong with loneliness. It is hidden in nothingness and made out of nothing.

Loneliness in the years is the norm, and enjoying loneliness is the gesture.

Human dignity is not given by others, but earned by oneself. No matter the sky, work, the world, or talents.

Smart people are willing to take risks when they think of equivalent exchange; If the poor want to be cheap, they are willing to pay less and get more.

People have two basic problems: one is survival; Second, survival.

Secondly, it is to answer the question of the value of life and let the soul have a home.

Why are the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer? Bad is an idea and bad is a form.

Therefore, intelligence and thought are the magic weapons to win.

Only those who obey the laws of heaven, know people well, and are in a dilemma will have a chance to become supreme.

Don't expect others to say anything at any time.

One depends on the word. It's hopeless.

Getting rid of poverty depends on ambition in the final analysis.

Getting rid of poverty is not only material prosperity and spiritual prosperity, but also requires determination.

Only when you wake up, realize and do it, can you truly become yourself.

The Distant Savior is a novel with rich connotations, involving people, philosophy, religion, love, the essence of making money in the stock market and so on.

Shen Nan has a wonderful sentence in The Distant Savior, but the content in the TV series has been deleted.

Shen Nan said, "If I have money, I don't need a rich man. I want a man with a soul, not a man with money but no soul.

"

Reading can't make you change your life immediately, but as Wen Ya Jr. said, "Knowing this person opens a window, you can see different things and hear different voices, which can make you think and feel. That's enough now.

Three books add up to 89 yuan, and a packet of cigarettes can be sent home by parcel.
