Mythologically speaking, our myth is that Nu Wa made people, and we are all made of clay by Nu Wa Niangniang. Nu Wa Niangniang is not a dragon, but a snake head at most. From the perspective of faith, our totem is a dragon, which is only our belief, and it is still not a person handed down by dragons. On the contrary, this totem, this belief, is because we are descendants of the dragon.
Then why do you say that we are descendants of dragons?
Because our spirit is the spirit of the dragon, and our culture is the culture of the dragon. What we passed down from generation to generation is the spirit and culture of the dragon.
Dragon soul, where is the dragon culture? In the Book of Changes.
China's culture is based on respect for the Book of Changes.
The Book of Changes once included the Book of Changes, the Book of Changes and the Book of Changes, and it has been lost. Now I use the Book of Changes, commonly known as the Book of Changes.
The first book of changes is cantaloupe. Gangua is actually about dragons. Six dragons are in different states. "Hidden Dragon", "Seeing Dragon", "Tired Dragon", "Leaping Dragon", "Flying Dragon" and "Kanglong" can be regarded as the development process of dragons and their respective stages.
Gangua is about the dragon and the sky. "Heaven is healthy, and gentlemen are constantly striving for self-improvement." The dragon follows heaven and strives for self-improvement. China people are the most self-reliant. Parents have worked hard for half a year to farm, and there is little left, and they have to pay for their own food. No one complains. In European and American countries, when people encounter difficulties in life, they have held demonstrations and asked the government to give them welfare. "Don't complain about others, don't treat others specially" is our characteristic of continuous self-improvement. "The Analects of Confucius": "I don't complain about heaven or care about people. When I go to school, I know I am a god!" Our culture, the Confucian tradition, is about this constant self-improvement. "If you do something wrong, you must strive for self-improvement", which means striving for self-improvement and finding problems in yourself. When we talk about self-improvement, we make ourselves strong, and if we rely on something else, it will stop.
China people, everyone's blood is full of the spirit of self-improvement, and everyone is struggling silently. As long as the restrictions are released, China society will flourish without drive and guidance. This is a self-motivated "self-improvement" cultural consciousness.
Throughout the history of thousands of years, those who closed their doors to the outside world were weak, and once they closed the door, they trapped the dragon and closed it. Open, cheer up at once, the dragon will take off.
The fine tradition of China people is that they are easy to get along with others. You are in business and I am a farmer. As long as everyone is on the right track, they can get along well in different industries. Confucianism says "harmony but difference", which is probably the case. This, and Yijing _ Gangua are also deeply rooted. "If you use nine, you will see that there is no leader and discipline." Why is it auspicious to be leaderless? Although "Flying Dragon in Heaven" is located in the Ninth Five-Year Plan, other dragons just respect it, not necessarily headed by it, and all the Six Dragons are headed by Tiande.
The ninth five-year plan is supreme, that's the emperor, but it's just respect. If you don't keep the virtue of heaven, the emperor can change it. Foreign royal families will basically remain unchanged, but our emperors can "take turns to sit at the top, and the emperors take turns to sit", and those with virtue will be replaced by those without virtue.
This is the dragon culture headed by Tiande.
Our culture doesn't talk about slave culture. The ninth five-year plan is supreme, but it must be headed by Tiande. "The Analects of Confucius Eight Shu" Confucius said: "The monarch makes the minister polite, and the minister is loyal to the monarch." Reciprocal relationship, although there are monarch and minister, is also reciprocal, and you can respect the monarch, but the real first is Tiande.
Mencius under King Hui Liang: Qi Xuanwang asked: "Is it true that Shang Tang exiled Xia Jie and King Wu crusaded against Shang and Zhou Dynasties?"
Mencius replied: "There is such a record in the literature."
King Xuan asked, "Can courtiers kill you?"
Mencius said: "Those who corrupt righteousness are called thieves; Those who corrupt righteousness are called disabled; People like the disabled and thieves are called husbands. I only heard that I killed my husband, not that I killed you. "
Killing Zhou Wang only killed an unruly husband, so I didn't kill you.
Our traditional dragon culture does not respect slavery. Therefore, China people will respect their leaders, but they will abide by the virtue in their hearts and do it with the concept of virtue. This is the cultural gene in the bones. If a leader has no virtue, then the next step must be to betray others. Even relatives are leaving. Why? Not a leader, but a leader of Tiande. Understand this leaderless group headed by Tiande, and you will understand why.
Therefore, the fine traditions of China people are easy to get along with. Dragon culture, headed by Tiande, retreated to daily social life, that is, talking about harmony without difference. As long as it is good, differences can be reconciled, just as the dragon is headed by Tiande. Although we are different, if we all abide by Heaven's virtue, we can coexist peacefully. If it is bad and does not abide by the virtue of heaven, it will not be for peace.
That is, China people will live in peace, but not cowardice.
China people tolerate different things and abide by the virtue of heaven, just like. People who go against God's will will not make up with you. The spirit is that the dragon is headed by Tiande.
Some people in China don't learn Confucianism, but in our genes, they all naturally have the spirit and culture of Gangualong. Confucianism only explained the spirit and culture of our nature, so Confucius said that he was talking rather than doing it. It's true. There is nothing in Confucianism of sage education that you force yourself to create. When you understand your own self, look at Confucianism again. It's just that my nature is my own, and the sage pointed it out.
People nowadays are very confused. The descendants of dragons don't know if they are dragons. I lost my spirit and lost my cultural direction. He has no cultural self-confidence, worships foreign things, and belittles China. He doesn't know that his genes are the characteristics of the dragon's self-improvement, and his spirit is that the dragon is headed by Tiande. He forgot to be self-reliant and wanted to be attached to other people's culture. He doesn't know that we are headed by Tiande. He knelt under others and was held up by others.
How I hope that people who have lost themselves can listen to their spiritual and cultural calls! You are a descendant of the dragon, you know, why are you? It is a descendant of the dragon! ! !
