The revelation of Meng Gua

What is the meaning of Bazi and Meng Gua? Meng Mountains and Rivers Meng Genshangkanxia

Meng, Heng. I beg Tong Meng, and Tong Meng beg me. It is beneficial to chastity if you complain at the beginning and desecrate again and again. If you desecrate, don't complain.

Meng hexagram is the fourth hexagram among the sixty-four hexagrams. "Xu Gua Zhuan" says: "Everything must be ignorant when it is born, so it is subject to ignorance. The one who is ignorant is also ignorant, and the thing is immature." That is to say: when all things are first created, they must be ignorant. Therefore, after the Tun hexagram is the Meng hexagram, which means ignorance and childishness, and also has the meaning of enlightenment education.

Meng hexagram is an inverted hexagram of Tun hexagram. This mutually symmetrical hexagram is called "Zong hexagram", "Fu hexagram", "Xianzong" or reverse hexagram. They have the nature of being opposite and complementary to each other. Must be cross-referenced. Tun Gua explains the period when the heaven and earth were created, order was not yet established, and there was chaos and unrest; after all things were created, a period of childishness and ignorance followed, and education became a top priority.

In this hexagram, the lower hexagram "Kan" symbolizes water and danger; the upper hexagram "Gen" is the image of a mountain and has the function of stopping. Therefore, the hexagram shape of the Meng hexagram represents a dangerous and dim place at the foot of the mountain. Furthermore, the lower hexagram represents danger and the upper hexagram represents cessation, which means inner fear and external resistance, symbolizing childishness and ignorance, so it is named "Meng". The "Nine Two" in the lower hexagram of the Meng hexagram is the main body. Among the six lines of the whole hexagram, there are two yang and four yin, with the yang line being the main one. "Nine Two" is the center of the yang line, and it is in the middle of the lower hexagram, which is the same as the "six five" Yin and Yang correspond to each other, so they are dominant. "Shangjiu" is too strong and not centered, but it can resist external enemies.

"Bandits" are not the same, "I" refers to "Nine-Two", and "Tong Meng" refers to a naive and ignorant person, referring to "Six-Five". "Profane" means contempt and disrespect.

Meng, there is Hengde. It is not me who seeks the ignorant children, but the ignorant children who seek my education and instruction. Just like asking for divination, you should ask for advice sincerely. The first divination can tell him that it is disrespectful to cause trouble again and again. If you are disrespectful, don't tell him. Only in moderation can you be pure. This also shows that in principle, the work of enlightenment must have pure motives and persist to the end, so "chastity" is the most beneficial.

"Tunzhuan" explains the hexagram of this hexagram: "Meng Heng, to promote things, is in time." This means: The reason why Meng Hexagram is said to be prosperous is because this kind of enlightenment education is too It’s timely, neither early nor late, and we grasp the principle of moderation without being extreme, so we can move forward unimpeded. "Yu Zhuan" also said: "I ask for enlightenment, and the child asks for me, and I am willing to respond." This means that the naive and ignorant people take the initiative to ask for enlightenment education, and it is not me who seeks the ignorant children. This is just like our career is in its early stages and we also need enlightenment education. Therefore, we proactively make intellectual investment; but the aspirations of enlightenment teachers have also been responded to. Of course, the person who needs enlightenment education does not actually refer to just a toddler or child, but a mentally retarded king, an entrepreneurial gentleman who wants to create a great cause but lacks resourcefulness; on the contrary, the enlightenment teacher is a For a magi in a lower position, it is impossible for the magi to take the initiative to enlighten the weak king. Instead, the weak king must take the initiative to invite the magi to enlighten him out of career needs. "Yu Zhuan" also said: "The first divination is to be reported, and it is just right. If you blaspheme again and again, you will not complain, and it is blasphemy." This means: the rule of divination enlightenment is that you can only divination once, not several times in a row. When the person who begged for the 筮 first came to ask for the 筮, he was told that there was no good or bad luck, because he had a strong heart and complied with the principles of the golden mean. If he does not believe in the first zodiac and is suspicious and begs for it again and again, then he is offending and blaspheming the zodiac. Then he will no longer predict fortune for him, nor will he tell him good or bad luck. This is because he is ignorant, and It also went against his original intention of seeking advice. Therefore, "Yu Zhuan" finally said: "Enlightenment is to cultivate the righteous way, and a saint is also a saint." In other words: Enlightenment is to cultivate the righteous way, which is a sacred and inviolable cause.

Xiang said: A spring springs from the foot of the mountain, Meng; a gentleman cultivates virtue through fruitful conduct.

The upper hexagram "Gen" of Meng hexagram symbolizes mountains, and the lower hexagram "Kan" symbolizes water. Therefore, "Xiang Zhuan" uses spring water flowing from the mountain to illustrate the image of Meng Gua. There are often springs flowing at the foot of the mountain. It starts as a gurgling trickle, and then merges into a surging river from a small stream, which in turn nourishes all living things. The enlightenment and education of young children should also be carried out bit by bit and step by step, so that knowledge can be gradually accumulated and enriched. As a gentleman, you should also imitate the spirit of Meng Gua, take decisive actions, and cultivate noble moral character.

The Meng hexagram explains that at the beginning of the hard work, various institutional orders have not yet been established, and they are in a chaotic and ignorant state. People's ideas are not unified, they value profit over justice, and their quality is generally low. Therefore, enlightening the people's wisdom has become the primary task of governing the country and bringing peace to the world. In order to enlighten the people's wisdom, unify their thoughts and improve their quality, education must be strengthened. Education must be subtle, step-by-step, and must not be forced, let alone use violent attack methods like those used in war. It must grasp the principle of moderation without being biased or radical.

Ask for the story of Lu Meng and Guan Yu in the Three Kingdoms. Part 9: Attack Mongolia.

Line explanation:

This is the sixth line of Meng hexagram. Attacking ignorance means attacking ignorance in order to eliminate ignorance. Kou, enemy, if you abandon ignorance, you can deal with the enemy better, and it will be less easy for the enemy to attack you because of your ignorance. Therefore, it is said: "It is not good to attack Mongolia, but it is good to resist them."

Under Sun Quan's advice, Lu Meng studied diligently to overcome his ignorance, became the commander-in-chief of Wu's army, and defeated Guan Yu, the famous general of Shu. The story can explain this meaning.

Story:

During the Three Kingdoms period, there was a general named Lu Meng in the State of Wu. He has been following Sun Quan in the southern and northern wars, and has made great contributions to the founding of Soochow.

This Lu Meng is worthy of being a heroic general. However, he has never studied since he was a child, so he has no literary skills, behaves rudely, and does not understand etiquette at all. Everyone called him "Wu Xia Amen".

Once, when Sun Quan and Lu Meng were together, Sun Quan said: "General Lu, you are now in charge of the country's affairs with me. You should read more books and learn more historical and cultural knowledge. This is the best.

"

When Lu Meng heard this, he immediately said: "I am too busy with military affairs all day, how can I have time to study? In the past, if I didn't study, didn't I still lead troops to fight? "

Sun Quan smiled and replied: "In terms of busy, you are not busier than me, are you? Since I crossed the river, I have taken the time to read "Historical Records", "Hanshu" and various military books.

"You are not busier than Cao Cao, are you? Cao Cao often forgets to read when he leads troops to fight. The older he gets, the more he likes to read. Liu Xiu, the founder of the Eastern Han Dynasty, always keeps his hands on books. These are all things that everyone knows You know."

"There is a big difference between reading and not reading. There are many truths in the book that can make people smart; the historical experience and lessons in the book can give people enlightenment and warning. Many of the things that govern the country are inspired by education from books."

After listening to Sun Quan's words, Lu Meng realized the importance of studying. From then on, no matter how busy he was with military affairs, he would do it every day. Take some time to read. He also hired two scribes to guide him in his studies.

When he started reading, Lu Meng had no special feelings. Gradually, Lu Meng got a taste for it, his horizons broadened, and his thinking became more and more vivid, only then did he realize that he had many previous ignorances. So, the more I read, the more interesting it became, and later I became a learned man.

After Zhou Yu's death, Sun Quan appointed Lu Su as the governor. This Lu Su was a famous scholar in the state of Wu. He was knowledgeable and had read tens of thousands of books. Both he and Lü Meng worked under Zhou Yu, and they often teased Lü Meng. He was named "Wu Xia Amen" by him.

Once, Lu Su went to inspect Lu Meng's garrison. In his spare time, Lu Meng took the initiative to talk to him about knowledge, which surprised Lu Su. At first, Lu Meng was talking to Lu Su as a seeker; after a while, Lu Meng asked several questions, but Lu Su couldn't answer them; later, Lu Su could only listen to Lu Meng's words. "

After listening to Lu Meng's eloquent remarks and quotations from scriptures, Lu Su said in amazement: "I didn't expect that you, the former Amen, would be so rich today! I am extremely in awe of you! ”

Before Lu Su died, he recommended Lü Meng to take over his post, and he was highly regarded by Sun Quan.

After Soochow established its country, it always wanted to take back Dingzhou, which was guarded by Guan Yu, but It has never been successful. If Jingzhou is not recaptured, it will threaten Soochow.

After Lu Meng became the commander-in-chief, he took various military measures while uniting with Wei, and finally defeated the famous general Guan Yu. Go to Maicheng and recapture Jingzhou.

Life Enlightenment:

No one is an omniscient and omnipotent God. Therefore, there are areas of ignorance that need to be "attacked". If ignorance cannot be eliminated, "bandits" will take advantage of it; if it can be "attacked", harmful "bandits" will not have the opportunity to take advantage of it. Lu Meng can consciously "attack" and improve his literacy through reading. , eliminated ignorance, transformed from Amen to a learned man, and realized Wu's ideal of seizing Jingzhou for many years, which has been passed down as a story through the ages. We should also get inspiration from Lu Meng's story, always pay attention to discovering our own "muddle", and work hard. To eliminate it. The less "confused" a person is, the greater his deeds will be.
