Hexagram Explanation ~ Introduction (14)
When we talk about hexagrams, there is one thing I want to explain clearly. Our hexagrams all have life, response, and life and response can only be used for individuals called natural persons. If the divination is a legal person, it is a group, Shi and Ying do not need to look at it, because it cannot represent a person. It refers to that group. It seems to say that the Republic of China, the Republic of China produces this hexagram. Just don’t look at the Shi and Ying in the Republic of China. You don't have to look at it. To whom is this thing to deal with, deal with all the people, and deal with your enemies, deal with the whole world, with so many countries, how can there be a Si and a Ying?
But there are people, and what people have to deal with is you and the other person, or a certain thing, this is ok, so natural person is an individual, a real person, then we have to consider the world and should, if it is a legal person If it is a group of people, or a country, then don't look at the Si and Ying.
It’s no wonder that before the Qing Dynasty, including the Ming Dynasty, especially during the Ming Dynasty’s winter solstice, the emperor had to go to a hexagram. In the winter solstice, the emperor had to sacrifice to the sky. Shi and Ying are not only the emperor alone, but they also have Shi Ying. His whole hexagram explains it. The priest used to be called a military master to explain it, and in the West it is called a priest, and he will explain it. If he suffers a lot of unfairness, How do you tell? At that time, there was a minister of military affairs next to the Empress Dowager Cixi. He wanted to deal with whether the organization of the National Boxers would be successful. He worshipped the sky at the Temple of Heaven in Beijing. Because the Empress Dowager Cixi had already locked up Guangxu, he could not control the emperor, so he had to call the minister of military affairs. Guangxu sacrifices to the heavens and divination hexagrams. Later it came out that the hexagrams were unworkable, but the Minister of Military Affairs already knew that the empress dowager Cixi could not do it. The queen mother has a lot to do in the future. Well, if you continue to do it, in fact, the country will perish. Look at the Battle of the Boxer. That year was the Xinchou Treaty of the Year of the Boxer. The Eight-Nation Alliance’s Xinchou Treaty paid forty-five million taels of food. At that time, the food was at the same price as gold. At that time, the whole country was open. If you can’t take the tariff, you will perish in the country. Why is it not divided? This is very important. Because the Gengzi Year was so chaotic and the teachers were killed, all the masters in Beijing fled to Shanghai. Finally, after the Eight-Power Allied Forces went up, the Empress Dowager Cixi fled. Originally, the consulates of eight countries had meetings with the leaders of all the churches in Shanghai to divide China, so it was the Presbyterian Church that saved China. At that time, the Presbyterian Church in Canada and the Christian Church in the United States were in the same system. He said no. They are a country, and we can’t unite the elite forces of eight countries to divide people up. That’s why we didn’t divide it up. Instead, we used negotiation and destroyed the entire economy in this way. So why did the Presbyterian Church thank him so much in the National Government? When he was in Nanjing, he was given a very big preferential treatment, and he established a very famous university called Jingling University. It was a private church university. At that time, the chairman was Hang Liwu and the principal was a foreigner. So when the Japanese massacred, As long as he ran into Jingling University, the president ran out to protect him and saved 140,000 people. A top 100 university squeezed 140,000 people. The Japanese army did not dare to enter because the principal was British, so this story is very miserable.
You see that divination of a hexagram is contrary to your conscience. For the sake of the master, if the master wants to listen to you, if the master kills you and dares not execute the Boxer, it doesn’t matter if the hexagram is interpreted. Yes, you must understand it thoroughly, and you should not believe that the person who interprets the hexagram is absolutely right, so from my historical testimony, I don’t want to interpret the hexagram. Because if you use the hexagram solution method, what he wants to perform internally, people have long been affirmed, you have to explain it to you, and others may not listen to you, so we have to tell him how you want to achieve your goal and what method to use. can reach.
Your success may not necessarily be the way you think, after you have dealt with it, you may be encouraged or suggested to you. What kind of advice allows you to achieve your goal? This goal is what you want, and you can do it with the suggested methods. About eight out of ten will do it. Why don't you want to do two out of ten? For him, it’s not necessarily very advantageous, and he doesn’t need to be successful. Why? He is doing very well now. He feels that he is asking for trouble for that kind of success. About 20% of people are like this. It's great just to maintain the status quo.
