A few days ago, I put forward my own different views on "there is a kill to see the kill, and then to see the use if there is no killing", and someone left a message in the comment area saying: "Deny the predecessors, I dare not agree". After reading it, I was deeply shocked by its ignorant and ignorant state, and I felt that it was necessary to reiterate the correct attitude towards numerology.
Numerology is a science of development, eight-character numerology originated in the Tang Dynasty, if people have no brains to believe in the views of their predecessors, then there will be no later "Yuanhai Ziping", "Dripping Heavenly Marrow", "Poor Tong Baojian" and other numerology monographs, eight-character numerology can only stay in the initial stage. The key reason why the eight-character numerology continues to develop, and after the Tang Dynasty, there are different views and different factions such as pattern theory, prosperity and decline theory, and divine evil theory, is that the numerology masters of later generations have adhered to the attitude of rationality, objectivity, and empirical evidence to continue to explore. Throughout the history of numerology development, it is not difficult for us to find that numerology can only be developed if the views of predecessors are denied on an empirical basis.
If there is a kill, you will see the killing, and if you don't kill, you will see the use" at all" The "predecessor's point of view" is just a rather one-sided statement. Seven kills is one of the ten gods in the eight characters, and the analysis of the eight characters should be centered on the sun, first look at the prosperity and decline, then look at the pattern, and then look at the gods, this is the correct way. Taking the seven killings as the key and focus of the analysis of the eight characters is undoubtedly a side-door and left-handed way that reverses priorities and goes astray.
The kind of superficial people who blindly follow the "kill first and see the kill, and then look at the use if there is no killing" do not understand the development history of the eight-character numerology, nor do they understand the basic method of the eight-character numerology, and they do not have enough practical experience in the eight-character numerology. For such a person, it is difficult to explain clearly, because his knowledge of numerology is too superficial. As the saying goes, "well frogs can't speak of the sea, autumn insects can't speak of ice", his vision limits his cognition, and until his horizons are broadened, any explanation is difficult to work.
This kind of people's cognition of numerology also made me find that there is still a misunderstanding that needs to be corrected urgently among the current numerology beginners, "only the book is not the truth", this part of the people ignore the practical verification, but mistakenly think that what the book says is right, and what their teacher says is right. This is a method of Xi putting the cart before the horse, and it is also a "superstitious" method of learning Xi. This method of learning Xi misleads others and oneself, and there is no way out and no future.
