Seeing that it is not victorious, it is better than everyone knows, and it is not good for the good;War, win and the world says: good is not good, good is good.
Earlier, Sun Tzu told the most quintessential part of the "Art of War", and the highest state of the "Art of War" lies in the "invisible".
Invisible, not capricious, not taken for granted, but "do what you want" at the peak of wisdom.
The focus of the heart is the foundation of all existence—laws, motives, goals, emotions, ideals, and trends.
Find your own core intentions, deeply analyze your ambitions, and then compare them with all the existing environments, forces, real states, where people's hearts come from, and where they aspire, so as to find and overcome the false "desire", "desire" and "urgency" of self-transcendence The infinite non-true self is filled with self-expansion, returning it to its source, finding the truest self, discarding all unreasonable factors, retaining the true state, conducting a comprehensive and true understanding of the self, and finally matching the true self with the real laws in real existence.
In such a state, we can gradually find the essence of the "art of war".
The biggest enemy of the invisible lies in willfulness, in assumptions, in unrealistic, in excessive self-aggrandizement.
This is the intangible basis of the art of war, and on this basis, it is possible to gradually understand the intangibility of the general who does what he wants.
Just like a clever calligrapher, there is no matter about techniques, techniques are just tools, so everything that exists in the art of war is just tools.
Don't take the tool as the goal, so that you can move in the nine heavens and hide in the nine places.
Under this discussion, Sun Changqing further discussed how to lay a solid foundation and how to skillfully apply skills and tools to all real and invisible real goals.
So Sun Tzu said: If you don't see victory, you will know more than everyone knows, and you will not be good either.
Seeing that it is not victorious, it is better than everyone knows, and it is not good for the good;
See, this character has only one pronunciation in the pre-Han Dynasty and before, and it is called guan. The understanding of this word is the core of this sentence.
What is "see" (guan)?
The Xi of standing above all phenomena and having the ability to see all truths and laws is called seeing.
Sun Tzu's purpose in putting the word "seeing is not to win" is to tell us that what you think is comprehensive mastery is not a real existence;What you think is free of flaws, loopholes, is not real.
Because in this world, there is no such perfect layout as no loopholes.
The reason why there are no defects and loopholes is that we are in a static state, and once we hand over the static state to time, to competitors, and to opponents, we will find that there are many loopholes and we will lose sight of one or the other.
Just like a person makes a perfect car out of building blocks, when such a car is in a stationary state, it looks very strong and perfect, but once it is placed under a certain speed and a certain movement, it is no longer in a perfect state.
This is true in any field of human beings, except that man is often afraid of breaking his own achievements, and he is often afraid that his existing gains will be denied by himself.
Behind all achievements is the accumulation of time, and in the final analysis, it is difficult for people to accept their own waste of time.
The most fearful and fearful thing for human beings is that they are seen as incompetent.
In fact, there is no waste of time in this world, only the efficiency of the application of time. In the same way, there are no incompetent people in this world, only people who do not apply their abilities;Or someone who doesn't bring out the power of the self.
This is often reflected in the perception of specific time and efficiency.
For example, the time in the day that is really used to do something meaningful is only one hour, which seems to be an hour, but the explosive power and inner creativity generated by this hour are what normal people need to break through for years, decades, or even hundreds of years.
For example, Joseph John Thomson, who suddenly thought of finding a single answer from the single, is equivalent to starting from the simplest place, so he thought of "cathode rays", so he discovered the existence of smaller particles, so human beings defined them as elementary particles, so electrons and electricity have made great progress.
We know that research on particles and electricity has actually been going on for hundreds of years, so why did Joseph John Thomson burst out with such great efficiency in an instant?
Because - see the victory.
In the final analysis, it is not the length of time that improves the efficiency of time and the efficiency of time.
This is an absolute change in relative time, which can also be called time acceleration.
So, Sun Tzu told us that there is a way to do everything, and that we need to learn to do it the right way, to solve problems easily, rather than in a wasteful way.
We know that whether it is war, confrontation or competition, the core is to reduce costs and improve quality.
This in itself is contrary to common sense, but we know that everything that happens naturally in the universe is extremely low-cost and efficient.
For example, we have already mastered nuclear energy, such as "cross-material transmission" that we have not yet mastered, etc.
See the victory", we seem to be only three words, but Sun Tzu's meaning is not simple, these three words constitute the core of human problem solving.
Once you've mastered the method, you're going to make a real difference.
As we said: machetes do not mistake firewood.
Get the method in hand first, and then do it. Then the grandson said, "Yes, everyone knows, and the good is not good."
What is over?Passing is not the disappearance of the past or the process, but the state after the principle has been truly mastered.
Therefore, after we have successfully passed the exam, it is called a passing exam.
Therefore, the "three gates of Dayu" described in the "book" is not about passing by the door of going home, but about repeated exploration, discovery and application before finding the real method.
This is the true meaning of the word "pass" in the mouths of the ancients.
We know that the fundamental value of intangibility, the ability to win by surprise, and creativity lies in the fact that no one thought of it.
When everyone knows, masters, and is familiar with, there is no such thing as creativity, creativity, surprise, or intangibility.
Therefore, when we have mastered the wisdom and methods of higher wisdom, comparing ourselves with everyone, including competitors, enemies, etc., is equivalent to opening a "hanging" for us.
That's why Sun Tzu called this state known.
There are two words in this that are the core, one is the word "zhi" and the other is the word "knowledge".
of:It is not "of", not "among them", but the most prominent, the best, the most ideal, and the most bullish, which is equivalent to the "ceiling" in our Internet language today.
Know:In a certain sense, this word is a set of Chinese culture's mastery of skills **, or learning Xi's **.
What is Knowledge?According to the annotations since the Han Dynasty, we can understand it as: mastery.
In the long cultural history from the Han Dynasty to the Song Dynasty, "knowledge" has always been regarded as a theoretical prompt under the combination of "action and thought".
The question is: how?How to think "How to master?".
In fact, this word was very complicated in the time of Sun Tzu.
It can be roughly summarized as simply translated:
If human beings want to obtain a true understanding of the law, they must clearly distinguish the confusion of the phenomenon, and be able to classify the essence of all the confusion in a complete and systematic way, and then form it into a stable principle, and carry out repeated attempts, experiments, and tests, so that they can transform and use nature under the respect of the law.
This is the original meaning of the word "know".
Therefore, the name of one of the missing passages in the Analects is called "Knowing". The object of knowledge must be the Tao.
Therefore, in ancient times, "knowledge" would also be translated into applications such as loyalty, reverence, patience, carefulness, skillfulness, etc., and such applications, in the same person's article, will have different applications, as well as the embodiment of the article's thoughts.
The reason for this is that the "Tao" to which "knowledge" is directed is different.
Under such a system of "law thinking", it can be done: the good of the non-good.
This sentence can be understood as: the negation of negation.
We know that Sun Tzu's Art of War is almost completely free of nonsense and verbose words, so we can't simply understand that what has not been mastered and mastered maturely is the most remarkable method.
Sun Tzu's non-goodness is essentially speaking:
Respectively, the future and the methods that they have mastered now are used in two completely opposite ways to separate, discern, and reflect, which is a set of methods.
We know that there are a lot of descriptions of Socratic debates in the Republic, but in fact it is not necessarily the story of Socrates, but Plato himself is fighting against himself.
This is a very efficient way to learn Xi, which allows us to continue to study a knowledge, a skill, and a mastery.
Like a person, erudition is not the goal, the goal is refinement.
The significance of the Ph.D. lies in the support of intensive research, that is, the extensive grasp of the argument data.
Seeing that it is not victorious, it is better than everyone knows, and it is not good for the good;
This sentence is Sun Tzu's prescription for us: How can an excellent general be invisible?
First of all, have a keen sense of insight and be able to quickly seize the opportunity to change oneself;And such an opportunity can always be ahead of everyone's discovery, and surpass the opportunity, opportunity, condition, discovery, etc., that everyone can think of, and evolve it from multiple angles and models until the perfect fusion of opposition and unity is completeduntil the equilibrium of positive and negative is completed;Until you complete the grasp of your invincible position in the confrontation with your opponent, and so on, goodness is a comprehensive description of the text.
There are descriptions that maintain a high degree of awe, as well as the spirit of maintaining the ultimate pursuit, and there are also expressions that enter the state of the realm of law.
Sun Tzu tells us that the truth is called formlessness, so to interpret his writings, we must also achieve a state of intangible, unintentional, thoughtless, and thoughtless full integration and non-existence.
The reason why Sun Tzu's art of war has never been fully interpreted for more than 2,000 years is that everyone has too strong deliberate and self-conscious, in short, the most brilliant Cao Cao has not been able to get rid of the shackles of "self".
We know that the display of a method does not mean that the theory can be passed on, but must correspond to the structure and application of the method.
So Sun Tzu said: Therefore, it is not for many forces: to see the sun and the moon, no, for the eyes;Hearing thunder is not, for deaf ears.
This sentence seems heroic, but in fact, Sun Tzu is very contradictory when he says these words.
Because he was deeply aware that the abstract nature of "clear eyes" could not be better explained in his time;"Cong'er" is very characteristic of the times in his time, so Sun Tzu put the sun and moon in front of "Mingmu", and put thunder in front of "Cong'er".
We have mastered various skills and methods, and in confrontation and war, what level can we achieve in order to be considered qualified generals?
What is the invisible nature of GIs?
Sun Tzu's real requirements for soldiers, generals, and armies can be summed up in four words - unpredictable prophets.
This is the core of this sentence, or as a general, there are only four words that finally test your level - unpredictable prophet.
This kind of ability is the basic ability, or real ability, that every real general should have.
Anyway, it must be had, not dispensable, it must be had.
Let me briefly describe how Sun Tzu was a prophet of the unknown.
Therefore, it is not for much power.
Therefore, the word is taken here as:The classification, identification, hypothesis, and argumentation of all valid information ultimately leads to a reliable conclusion, and the result of such a conclusion is: a good example.
I say this to concretize Fang **, in fact, real generals do not need too much complicated information, but accurate information insights.
To give you a simple example: What is the first thing that moves a person's lips before they move?It must be orbicularis oculi muscle.
When we see the orbicularis oculi muscle moving, we know that the person's mouth is going to move, and we then reason, if the law requires us to do how to judge the orbicularis oculi muscle action, what should we do?
At this time, smart people will think of exploring neural responses, the problem is that the sensing signals of nerves are invisible, how do you determine neural responses?
As a result, human beings are confused, how to capture the response information of the nerves?
So our ancestors skipped the neural response and entered the brain field, which is what we call the "cardiac response".
Once a person's heart reacts, it will inevitably produce a corresponding conditioned reflex, so it begins to have the possibility of judging and pushing the orbicularis oculi muscle.
Isn't that a great way to predict?
The question is how to judge such a phenomenon as heartbeat?
And it's an accurate judgment?
Of course, today's human beings are obsessed with the study of instruments, and our ancestors have skipped the limitations of instruments, so they have come to the study of all the movement phenomena of human limbs, such as a person sitting in front of food, he must move his mouth next.
It seems like a funny metaphor, but in fact, everyone's heart is swayed by materials, so the information that Sun Tzu said is in the "catalyst" of all the heartbeats before he saw it.
The essence of everything is to grasp the inner aspirations of a large number of people, so they create a "heartbeat catalyst", commonly known as interests.
These are all called "lifting the slight", but the grandson's exaggeration has reached the realm of nothingness.
Therefore, with a sense of pride in loneliness, he said: not for Duoli.
These four words are translated, just like Jiang Taigong ridiculing the anglers in the world: you have lost countless baits, but you have not achieved an inch.
Of course, Sun Tzu will not laugh at our clumsiness, but he is indeed saying: the most stupid way is to spend huge financial, material and human resources, and only with the least cost and the greatest success can it be regarded as a real "lift".
It is precisely because of Sun Tzu's thinking on the art of war that later generations appeared: anticipating the enemy as a god, anticipating the enemy as the first, and anticipating things as a god;Use soldiers like gods, out of the gods, and the soldiers are bound to armor;Strategize and win a thousand miles;Talking and laughing, the ashes disappeared, anyway, all the combat ability that lifts weights is what Sun Tzu called "lifting everything".
Behind these concepts, there are not myths, not legends, not stories, but real wisdom.
Therefore, it is not for more power: to see the sun and the moon, no, for the eyes;Hearing thunder is not, for deaf ears.
In fact, the content behind Sun Tzu is not to explain the previous content, but to worry that his theory is too abstract, trying to resonate with future generations who follow his ideal through the metaphor of the phenomenon.
It belongs to the same principle, different expressions.
However, I used a colon to make it clear to us that this is telling the same principle.
At least that's the Xi of our time.
No, unsightly:The eyes should always play the value of the eyes, and do not let their eyes become a burden or a misguide. What does such a perceptual description make us think of?
Why do our eyes become beings who deceive ourselves?
Sun Tzu is telling us not to believe our superficial conclusions, so what are non-superficial conclusions?
Observe the sun and the moon.
These three words are not simply the sun and moon, so they are meaningless. This is a figurative expression of the great yin and yang thinking.
It is like observing a person and walking into his unprepared bedroom to know the real state of affairs far more real than in the presence of a beautiful woman at a lavish dinner.
The bedroom belongs to the yin, and the beauty of the lavish dinner belongs to the yang. This is the application case of the great yin and yang.
Of course, in fact, there is no such thing as a mechanical yin and yang, for example, I like to be tidy, not because of anyone, but because I like to enjoy the sense of tranquility in neatness.
Therefore, there is no fixed law for all existence, but there is a rule of law.
This is Sun Tzu's admonition not to trap ourselves in some kind of self-made cage, the wisdom of nothingness.
The thunder behind is not thunder and rain, but foreseen in advance.
This is the basis for the prophet, except that Sun Tzu visualized it.
Primary school students know that the speed of sound propagation is far less fast than the speed of lightning, so we don't have to wait until we hear thunder to know that we are going to thunder, we don't have to wait for heavy rain to know that it is going to rain.
It's called Satoshi. The ear is not the ear, but the sensitive state of the heart.
A person's sensitivity determines the ability to predict in advance, which is not acquired by reading a few books or participating in a few practices.
Therefore, what many people with great wisdom ultimately pursue is the ultimate ability to predict and premonition.
This ability also has a whole set of formulas**.
This recipe does not come from the outside world, but is contained in everyone's body.
This is also the true value and meaning of awe.
The saints teach us:The sky hangs down like an elephant, see (guan) auspicious and evil, and the saint is it;The sage also taught us that knowing is knowing and knowingThe sage also said: What you know is what you do, but what you don't know.
Actually, the saints have already told us the method, but we overestimate ourselves too much and have no reverence, so I often sigh: Those who ignore the saints are ignorant of the outside, ignorant of the outside, ignorant of the outside, ignorant of the inside, ignorant of the inside, and ignorant of the inside.
The brain is for thinking, not for thinking;The heart is used to treat oneself and the truth sincerely, not to be used to be mindful.
So, before you get it, you still have to pay.
Life is nothing more than a choice over and over again.
Therefore, Sun Tzu's words seem to be very arrogant and imposing, but in fact he is very helpless and sad;Of course, it doesn't matter.
The thunder has hit the bottom of my ears, and I am still asking if it is going to rain
How can such a person master great wisdom?
I can think of the helplessness and worry of Sun Tzu in the face of the groups of confused, ignorant, and fearless people of his time.
So, he finally pinned his hopes on the future, so he wrote the world's first art of war - "The Art of War".
