I Ching Principles (3)
After human beings have summarized an experience in the conditions of overall survival, a formula will be produced. Is like our clock is summarized, we find the same twelve o'clock, one sees the sun at twelve, and the other does not see the sun at twelve, so when it is summarized, it becomes twelve noon, and then twelve at night , It will become twelve in the day and twelve in the evening.
After being summarized, the same pattern may be a different natural phenomenon at different times. Under the same conditions, different phenomena may appear under different environmental times. These phenomena are determined by the time. The inductive person decides, the daytime is yang, because when you see the sun, then you set the yin when you don't see the sun, and the yin means you don't see, the meaning of darkness.
After the yang and the yin were summarized tens of thousands of years ago, a lot of phenomena were found. When the phenomenon is yang, it seems that all animals are moving, and people are moving during the day. Then they become yang and move at night. When everyone was quiet and rested, the birds would return to their nests, the chickens would return to their places, the people would return to the bed, and they would all return together. Then Yin was resting and static.
If the yin is originally static, what should be done if it is moving, because the yang is moving, if the yin is static, but what to do when it is moving at night? They are observing everything, like when the cat is moving at night, why? In copulation, there is coexistence of yin and yang. In this way, we have been discussing yin and yang. In the era of yin and yang, to the Guiguzi of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Period, history regarded him as a yin and yang family. The quiet can be also moving, that moving cause birth. Moving can also be static, it is education.
Finally, you need to understand that the tigress is lying there quietly during the day, and they are feeding. The cows are quiet during the day, and the sheep are kneeling there to suck milk. They are quiet when they are about to move. At the time, it is the child who is quiet and it will be born, because it will be born when it is intersected.
Come to Yang and quiet for the sake of education, now there are many office workers who are quiet or not? Quiet. She goes to work, the child is handed over to the babysitter for childcare, and the child needs milk, and now all milk. So now people are always changing like this.
Therefore, there are some yin and yang theories in the past. People who teach now have no way to compare and apply. People in the past can apply them because they used to observe and summarize them. I use two aspects: how about the former Yin and Yang, how about the current Yin and Yang, how about the previous Yi Jing, how to do the current Yi Jing, sometimes it doesn’t work, it worked before, it doesn’t work now.
Why is it useless? Everyone knows that when eating rice, when the rice is going to be hulled, in the days before my grandmother, we used a soil shield to remove the husk. There is a kind of wood with the most shield in Taiwan. The axe handle is called red skin. The wooden board is nailed to the red clay. It is a circular nailing method. A graphite core is round in the middle. According to this graphite core, the nail must be nailed out. The direction of the nail must be left-handed. Our graphite must be left-handed. A right-handed grind was done in this way, and the rice husks were taken apart. This is also made by the principle of Yi Jing. The Chinese used it for 3,000 years. When the Japanese came, they quoted the machine rice rolling machine imported from Germany. After that, the logical soil shield in early China completely disappeared, and the soil shield theory was used for more than 2,000 years. It all changed. To make a hundred pounds of millet with a soil shield, it takes two people to work for half a day to a day. The motor used in the rice rolling machine introduced by the Japanese only needs five horsepower, and twenty thousand hours of millet can be used twenty-four hours a day. There is no way, we have to scrap this thing.
We used to have soil shields ourselves. I always wanted to keep this tool of the Book of Changes, including the imagination of previous people. The last one who would make a soil shield died in 1950 (August 49, Republic of China). Now, I was really sad at that time, I was studying Yijing at that time, it was very sad and useless. Because you need to have a house with the soil shield, and you have to rent it from him when the house is done, I didn't make any money at that time, the soil shield is well prepared and no one will take care of it. It is not so simple to keep that antique.
This yin and yang is very amazing. The soil shield just mentioned is quiet underneath this place. It is left-handed when it is quiet, and there is a hole covering it that can be ground, like graphite. As soon as the son comes and moves, it will produce things and grind those things out. It will use a stopper and a wind drum to fly out the coarse bran and the brown rice will fall off. Then it completes the Chinese survival process. This is the earliest application of yin and yang.
