"To conscience" is the law.

Wang Yangming studied Taoism all his life, and after realizing his conscience in his later years, he unified himself in To Conscience: "I have been teaching all my life, but only to conscience." In Yangming's mouth, the effort to be a conscience is the simplest and truest: "The study of saints is useless, but the word' being a conscience' is particularly simple and easy to understand, and nothing is lost." But this is really a surprise, because it is made directly from the ontology, just like the surprise of Zen, it is hard to bear without enough foundation. Therefore, even if Yang Ming holds out the simplest truth, his real followers are very few; Even though there are more people who believe in Yangming's mind in this era, laity is in the majority.

Based on the benefit of Yangming, he was 37 years old when he realized Tao in Longchang and 49 years old when he realized conscience. These two nodes are full of all kinds of difficulties, whether in spirit or in reality, all along the way are muddy and difficult. Finally, he put forward the theory of conscience based on his own consciousness. Is this comparable to those who lack these things? Can you understand the true meaning by listening casually? In this regard, Yang Ming himself lamented: "Recently, some comrades said that they don't know if they have a conscience. However, there are very few people who can make practical contributions here. It is because conscience is not true and it is too easy to see words, so there is no effective place. "

So this is the simplest, but it has a highest threshold-"trust". If you can't really believe it, you can't really keep it in mind and do it wholeheartedly, so you can't start; I can't cope with all kinds of selfish distractions in the process of work, I can't get out of the trap like a tight encirclement, and I can't go on. Where did this letter come from? Insight. Only when you really understand the truth can you really believe, otherwise you will never have faith. Yang Ming often earnestly persuades people to do it, but it is indeed difficult to "believe" and cannot be avoided. It's no use talking too much until this problem is solved.

The theory of conscience is related to noumenon, and you can realize it only by the fundamental instrument that you can realize. Conscience is so simple, and simplicity is just another way of saying "escape".

As Zen says, a normal mind is the Tao, and it doesn't need to be repaired, but it's not polluted, it's ordinary, and it's just like taking a break and doing nothing, and most people just turn a deaf ear. Therefore, the ancestors of past dynasties have repeatedly taught scholars that the premise and foundation of the first step of meditation is also "the letter of determination." The so-called determination book is to have a round and insightful point of view. Everything is difficult, it's all the same.

When it comes to Zen, there is also a key issue, that is, the high similarity between psychology and Zen. Yang Ming's so-called "the emptiness of the heart is bright, that is, the so-called natural conscience", and there are many similar statements. What is the difference between it and Zen's self-nature? Many people actually don't know this difference or only have vague cognition, but here they are one mile away-Yang Ming said that "the learning of the second division (immortal Buddha) is only one mile away from the saints"; A thousand miles away, whether the relationship is Confucianism or Zen, Yang Ming has repeatedly explained, emphasized and reminded. Distinguishing them here is not to establish a portal view, but that practice is corresponding. For those who correspond to Yangming's mind, it is understood that this involves the key and foundation of life.

One is insightful, and the other is slightly different from Zen, which is like two mountains in front of Yangming's theory of mind. I am waiting for ordinary people. Is there any hope?

Heavy divination is an excellent way to pay attention to conscience from the perspective of heaven, just like the apocalypse. It can be said that divination is the most direct and ultimate response to these two questions, and the essence of conscience is revealed.

Heavy divination: "to conscience" from the perspective of heaven

Compound divination

Cheng Yi said in the Biography of Cheng's Family: "The return of one yang is the heart of all things in the world. In the past, Confucianism took quietness as the heart of heaven and earth, and the immovable end as the heart of heaven and earth. You don't know, who can know? "

The core connotation of conscience has been completely contained in this sentence.

"One Yang belongs to one Yang, and one Yang is the heart of all things in heaven and earth." This sentence comes from the final conclusion of Fu Gua Zhuan: "Fu sees the heart of heaven and earth." The heart of heaven and earth is the Yang at the beginning of divination, which is what Cheng Yi called the "moving end". Why is this the heart of heaven and earth? Because "life is easy", Yang moves and Yang's first move is the beginning of life. It is about the twelve news hexagrams of a complete cycle of Yin and Yang. The growth of Yang begins with complex hexagrams, and then gradually becomes Yang every time until it becomes the dry hexagrams of pure Yang. This yang is at the beginning and at the bottom, and it is the deepest hidden inside. Just as the heart has transcendental ontological significance to people, it is called the heart of heaven and earth.

Wang Yangming said that "(goodness) knowledge is the noumenon of the heart, and the heart will naturally know it", and that "the conscience of my heart is the so-called justice". Together, conscience means that justice lies in people's hearts. Yang Ming called "the noumenon of the husband's heart, that is, justice"; Heaven is clear, so-called conscience is also ",and understanding is also the heart of heaven and earth." The highest generalization of the theory of mind is that there is no good and no evil body, and there is good and malicious behavior; Knowing good and evil is a conscience, and eliminating evil for good is a fact. The definition of conscience in the third sentence is actually a combination of the first two sentences. On the one hand, the body is moving, on the other hand, it is a combination of "the body is moving" and "the body is moving." "Knowledge", an intrinsic and thoughtful function, is the port and clue of the body. The whole four-sentence teaching has obvious characteristics of demonstration and guidance, which once again embodies Yang's characteristics.

Therefore, the yang of divination is conscience. The essence of conscience is here, and this is the meaning of life. Conscience is nature, and this Yang is the nature of conscience. The restoration of divination and the fact that Yang is the sky and conscience is the sun falls on people's hearts. Here we should observe from the perspective of harmony between man and nature.

Fu Gua legend: "Fu, Heng, just react and go straight, it is no disease in and out, friends come without blame." "Reactionary and smooth", reactionary, Lao Tzu said "the movement against Tao", and reactionary refers to the movement of Tao and positive movement. Going forward, taking one yang as the spirit and falling on things means that Yang has developed and become popular from the beginning until Datong is clear, that is, "constant"; Fundamentally speaking, it is behind the development of every life. Now is the place where the business is located, and you can directly see the business, that is, "no illness in and out, no complaints about friends." Those who have no disease in and out will be able to use it without leaving their bodies; Friends who come without blaming get more help and enter the situation; So there is no blame. The so-called business is an inclusive, beneficial and perfect opening trend, but this virtue is open, but openness can make it bigger and make it a great copy. Otherwise, it is to close the door and protect private interests, wander with evil, and treat all beings with each other. The essence of Confucianism is here, such as supreme goodness, moral integrity, benevolence of heaven and earth, great harmony and great harmony. So is conscience.

This is the last point of business, where conscience begins, similar to a visceral intuition. Yang Ming said, "My little conscience is my own rule. Think about it and you'll know whether it's right or wrong. You can't hide anything from him. Don't bully him Do as he says. If you are good, you will live. If you are evil, you will be happy. " "Everything should be remembered as meaning, meaning right and wrong, and knowing right and wrong is conscience. There is nothing wrong with conscience. " "Those who have a conscience, that is, the so-called' heart of right and wrong, everyone has it', have it without learning, have it without worrying. Who is conscience? It is unique and inaudible. " "Conscience in people, no matter what you want, you can't die. Although the thief knows that he is not a thief, he is still embarrassed to be called a thief. " "This word is shared by everyone, so even if it is stupid, it will be conscious to mention it." "Conscience lies in people's hearts and cannot be separated from saints and fools. It has been used all the time in the world. " "The sage's knowledge is like heaven; The knowledge of saints is like clouds in the sky; A fool is like a cloudy day; Although there is a difference between darkness and lightness, it is one that can distinguish between black and white. Although the night is dark, I can see the black and white shadow, which is the unfinished corner of the sun. When I am tired of studying, I only pay close attention to this. " "If a person knows this trick of conscience, he can think what he wants. When he felt here, everything melted. It is really a panacea. " ..... "So conscience is your master."

Yang Ming's so-called right and wrong, good and evil, remember not to teach you to think about differences, but to think about differences will close the port of conscience. It just teaches you to follow your inner voice, just like a willing son who enters the well of compassion and makes a choice according to the present karma. The present karma is the background and conditions; The essence of choice is to know good and evil and turn evil into good. If you really have knowledge, you must have the implicit help of conscience, the so-called epiphany. At first, it was a last resort. After understanding, we must go straight down, and then there will be a direct evidence, which is the so-called integration of knowledge and action. Understand this, and then pay attention to Yang Ming's sentence: "Conscience is just a heart of right and wrong ... but if not, everything will change."

The first point of this popularity is the process of conscience. At that time, some people in Yangming suspected that "it is too high to stand up and study hard too fast, which may be an opportunity for Zen epiphany." Yang Ming replied: "The theory of honesty in a small area is the opposite of the theory of empty epiphany." At that time, some scholars thought they had learned knowledge. Yang Ming taught him, "It's easy to say anything. If you work hard for another six months and one year, it's hard to say. The longer you work hard, the more different you feel. " Although it is a sudden method, it belongs to a sudden repair, that is, a sudden repair in the middle of a meal. The full development of conscience cannot be separated from the arduous and long process of repair. For this process, Yang Ming also made it clear: "Our generation only knows knowledge according to their own limits. Today's conscience is so, only today's knowledge can be used to expand to the end; If tomorrow's conscience is enlightened again, it will expand from what you know tomorrow to the end. This is a good effort. " "Like people walk, walk for a while, you will know for a while. Go to the wrong place, ask questions. Ask and walk, and you will gradually get to where you want to go. "

After divination, he said: "The former king closed Japan, and his business travel was not good, so he was not in the province", and the former king was a metaphor for returning to the Tao; Solstice is the solstice of winter, and this day in solar terms is the return of the sun, which refers to the place where the Tao returns; People who are closed to the outside world will stand alone and not move; "It's not good to travel on business, and it's not provincial", so no business trip, no inspection. This is all from the ontology, not from the facts. What tells us is that we should guard and hold our own heart, not do nothing, but return to it and build on it. This once again coincides with the theme of conscience. Therefore, Yang Mingyun said, "Independence means doing one's duty." "Covering it is the noumenon of conscience, and preventing fear is the work of conscience. Scholars often see what they can't see all the time and often hear what they can't hear, so they have a real workplace. After a long time, it will mature, no effort is needed, no inspection is needed, and the reason is endless. " Ignoring is the space light of conscience, and guarding against fear is the space light of guarding conscience. This is the word "cautious independence" in the golden mean, and it is also the word "cautious independence" in the story of Fubu and the language of Yangming's Mind.

On the other hand, Liu Yao's word is: "not far", that is, the Tao itself; "Hugh complex", that is, stop at the complex road; "Frequent recovery" refers to the separation of fear and recovery; "BOC returns alone", thinking about returning halfway, but not forgetting to return; "Dunfu", Dunfu is simple and chaotic, describing the complicated road, although it still exists, but it is chaotic; "Fan Fu" lost its way. Returning to the heart of heaven and earth, the development of these six concepts is a process of drifting away from the original heart. If you lose your sincerity, you will say: "fierce", "terrible", "ultimately defeated" or even "ten years can't be levied". Ten is an extreme number, which means that it is beyond redemption. Six hexagrams is the way of copying practice from the outside to the inside, and the fundamental and key point is the closeness to the original heart. Here, looking straight is doing work from the ontology. It is also a gradual restoration of conscience, which coincides with the course of conscience again.

Finally, the complex divination of Yang is popular with the dry divination of six hexagrams of pure Yang. Dry elephant is the sky, heavenly heart is the Tao, so it is easy to take the trunk road as the ontology. "A gentleman strives for self-improvement" is the fundamental spirit of Yi. "Use nine: seeing a group of dragons without a leader is the ultimate destination of Yi". Conscience is not like this, Yang Mingyun: "the emptiness of conscience is the emptiness of heaven;" The lack of conscience is too intangible. The sun, the moon, the wind, the thunder, the mountains, the mountains, and the people all have pictographs and colors, which are used invisibly in the void, and have never been an obstacle from heaven. "Before a leaderless, after an endless. There are many words similar to Yang Ming's, such as: "The noumenon of conscience does not exist originally, but only exists in space. Space, sun, moon and stars, rain and thunder, haze, what? What can be an obstacle to emptiness? So is the human heart. "

From the perspective of heaven, you can truly understand the weight of conscience and what will lead to conscience.

The difference between mind learning and Zen, as well as its root, is revealed-"the body is moving" and "the body is moving". If it is natural, the separatist movement is only the product of thinking, and the pseudonym is convenient. Mind learning and Zen have their own strengths, but Zen focuses on yin and body, and mind learning focuses on yang and movement. The essence of vacuum and the meaning of life are "Huang Taiji", and the ontology is this Taiji, not which one. This tai chi can be emphasized but not lacking. Therefore, both Zen and Mind have different tendencies, such as an introverted person and an extroverted person, but both can gain enlightenment. The difference between the two is not what many people think of as dynamic or static, inward or outward, but just this emphasis. Therefore, their differences are vague, only a few millimeters, and their roads are completely different. The point is that these few millimeters, the direction is this difference. Because of this Yang-harmony movement, the theory of mind is Confucianism, and the focus of Confucianism is in the world, because its tendency is action and responsibility, in which the Tao is realized and carried. Cheng Yi said that "the former Confucians all took quietness as the heart of heaven and earth, and the immovable end as the heart of heaven and earth", which is the essence of Confucianism. "If you don't know, who knows?"

Therefore, psychology advocates the cultivation of things. Yang Ming said, "If you want to arouse your conscience, will it affect your trance and hang in the air?" This must be true. Therefore, knowledge must exist in things. Where there is something, there is something. There must be something meaningful, and something meaningful is called something. Right is right, and wrong is right. Those who are right and wrong are also called evil. What is right is done well. "Conscience only works hard on sound, color, goods and profit." "If you leave something for study, it is empty. "This is the basic trend of psychological learning. The so-called prudence and independence in the past is a matter of conscience. On the one hand, it refers to the method of being quiet or alone, and more importantly, it refers to being cautious and independent from the heart through things.

Summary: The image of Fu Gua is a "minefield". Just as the self-nature of Zen shines in our words and deeds all the time, Wang Yangming said that conscience guides us all the time. So what are we going to do?

Listen to your inner voice and follow the call of your conscience.

Destroy Yin Qi and drive away ghosts.

The first divination of complex divination is stripping divination. Compound divination evolved from stripping divination.

Stripping hexagrams

Stripping hexagrams is the trend that Yang is constantly stripping, and six hexagrams are also stripping, which is the Kun of pure Yin, and then the extremes meet, and Yang is born, which is a heavy hexagrams. Cheng Yi's so-called "one yang restores the lower part", the words of restoring divination mean "returning after seven days", and the words of restoring divination mean "heaven". The image of peeling hexagrams is "the mountain is attached to the ground", that is, the mountain is on the ground. "Peeling" means peeling and denudation. Together, the mountain is higher than the ground, and it is bound to be exposed to the sun, lightning and wind and rain, and it is bound to be eroded and overturned for a long time.

We are all self-satisfied, either self-satisfied or self-satisfied Isn't our arrogance all arrogance? Isn't all our inferiority complex pushing us to seek a high capital? This is a "private intention", and it is always a private intention for Yang Mingyun to protect his conscience. So we will eventually peel off and subvert, so there is a word that appears many times: "fierce". On the other hand, in practice, this is great luck. There is a saying in Zen that "the skin falls off completely, and there is only one truth". Only when all your self-esteem is stripped from your heart can you see your true colors clearly. The mountain capsizes, the dust returns to the dust, and the ground on the mountain is the only hexagram among the 64 hexagrams, which is a symbol of virtue. Virtue is the realm, Lao Tzu said: Beneath goodness is the king of all valleys, so "Hokkekyo" should be taught in an all-round way.

Conscience is such a peeling process. What is peeling? After the divination is stripped, the divination is resumed; When the yin can be stripped, a yang is born; Yin people die and are ghosts; This Yang is angry and popular; After this transformation, the true meaning of conscience can be seen. From the perspective of recovery, the disease of all beings is excessive yin and insufficient yang; Speaking of conscience, it's so ghostly and tasteless. What causes the conscience to peel off is a body full of Yin Qi and something congenial. It's like being reborn from hell, the so-called reborn.

Then, you can start over.

End—
