Recently, many friends have asked me how to learn the Book of Changes, which is the source of the Great Dao and the source of our culture, which can be said to contain the secrets of the universe and life. Of course, so many people learn the Book of Changes, but also shows that everyone is paying more and more attention to traditional culture, I in "These Four, Doomed to Your Next Twenty Years of Universiade (Subtle Layout under the Fire Transport)" I talked about the future of the Nine Purple Fire Luck, must be the era of the revival of traditional culture.
Although Lushan Xueyi has not dared to say that he is proficient in it for so many years, many friends do not know that the "Book of Changes" includes "Lianshan", "Guizang", and "Zhou Yi", and the "Book of Changes" we are learning now is more of the "Zhou Yi" deduced by King Wen of Zhou.
It is said that "Lianshan" originated from the Xia Dynasty - for Emperor Yan to say that it was created, and "Returning to Tibet" is the Shang Dynasty's divination-Zheng method, which originated from the Yellow Emperor. "Lianshan" and "Guizang" are currently lost, but from the oracle bone inscriptions and historical fragments, it can be found that these two "Yi" were used by Xia people and merchants to talk to "gods", and they were the method of accepting "heaven's will", and King Wen put people in heaven and earth through "Zhou Yi", and then realized "the unity of heaven and man".
In the previous article "Lushan Xuantan: Everyone has divinity, how did your divinity disappear", I have described the evolution and methods of "Yi" in detail, and I believe you will have a different understanding of learning "Yi".
So, what is the central idea of "Zhou Yi"?What exactly does it mean to us?
Zheng Xuan's "Preface to Yi" cloud: "Yi is the name, in a word, it has three meanings, and it is simple;Change two also;It's not easy to be three. In other words, there are three central ideas of the Book of Changes: simplicity - change - difficulty.
SimpleIt is for easy to understand, only by grasping the core of the problem can we achieve the meaning of small words, and only simple can it be easy for people to understand and follow.
Changeable= The change of things and the change of the law are for the sake of the four seasons of yin and yang, and the good fortune and misfortune. Things are constantly changing, people are also constantly changing, and laws and truths are necessary conditions. We must be able to look at the law anytime and anywhere, instead of rigidly copying it, otherwise the result will be a sword.
Not easy= Constant is not easy, it is eternal, only difficult is the only one. If you ask if there is anything constant in this world?Some people will say change, some people will say that it is the "Tao" that the Taoists say, and then there are the mysterious words of "the Tao can be the Tao and the Tao is very Tao".
In fact, it is not so complicated, you must know that the establishment of "Zhou Yi" is King Wen's deduction of "the major events of the country, only worship and Rong", and it is the "number of great Yan". So what has really remained the same since ancient times?
The laws of the movement of the sun and the moon have not changed, the human heart and human nature have not changed, the interpersonal relations in society have not changed, and the interests pursued by people have not changed.
Since there are values, there are methods, and to give a simple example, the recent incident of Dong Yuhui's "small composition" can be used to get a glimpse of the leopard.
Simple: Some people are not worthy of virtue and position (such as Sun and Yu), and some people are not worthy of wealth and position (such as Dong).
Change: Any company needs to rely on the distribution of interests to achieve "unity", each performing its own duties, people are better than their positions, and distribution is based on work. However, people are constantly growing, and their value is constantly changing, so the distribution of benefits must also change.
And as the team grows and grows, the management style of the past also needs to adapt. You can't manage a Fortune 500 company the same way you manage a 10-person startup.
At the same time, in the process of growing up, the individual's own mentality will also change in different environments.
Not easy: there are no eternal enemies, no eternal friends, only eternal interests. Starting from human nature and interests, there will be cohesion, and there are three points of human nature here:
The first is the human nature of leaders, who want to retain outstanding talent while only wanting to pay the smallest "price."The second is the human nature of a worker, as an employee, no matter how valuable he gets, he is destined to have the same interests and ideas as the bossThe third is the humanity of the rest of the team, we are a team, why do you get the most?But ignore the size of their own value.
The end result was that Sun gave up his position, and Dong eventually became a "partner".
Therefore, one of the enlightenments of the Book of Changes for us is: always respect human nature and interests, respect values and abilities, and respect changes and laws.
Especially in the process of getting along with people, first find the "difficult" place, and according to the direction of "change", you can naturally find the most direct and "simple" core problem.
It must be understood that the respect mentioned here is not just "talking", but actually acting. This is also the most common mistake most people make, only "knowing" and not "doing".
Whether you are unwilling to do it or you don't know how to do it, it is because of the "weakness" in your heart, one is reluctance (desire), and the other is self-righteousness (self).
In addition, the root of the Book of Changes is yin and yang, yin is within yang, not in the pair of yang, yin and yang are one and the other, but also one, negative yin and yang, in order to be impulsive and harmonious.
