The son is in Qi Wenshao, and I don't know the taste of meat in March. Yue: I don't want to be happy, but I also want to be happy.
Vernacular explanation is taken from online education college.
Confucius heard and studied Shao Le, the representative figure of Wang Shunde in Qi State. He was so forgetful that he lost his mind. He was immersed in the artistic conception of being less happy for three months, and even the delicious meat was not felt when he ate it. So I said with admiration: I didn't expect the creation of Little Music to represent Wang Shun's achievements, and the artistic conception was so high that it was amazing.
Zhangzhi
In this chapter, Confucius is beautiful and happy.
Historical background: The historical background of this chapter is that in the twenty-five years of Lu's reign, Zhai's cockfighting lost Ji, and he became angry from embarrassment and joined forces with Lu to attack Ji's family. After the defeat, Zhao Gong was killed and fled to Qi.
In the twenty-fifth year of Lu, 5 17 BC, Confucius was thirty-five years old. When he returned to Lu from Luoyi, the eastern capital, he learned that he had fought a civil war with three doctors. Lu was defeated and fled to Qi, and Zhai was killed. Lu, after all, is a place where Duke Zhou treats etiquette and entertains, and dares not kill the king. Different from the civil strife in Qi after that, Dr. Chen was in charge of state affairs, which showed that the power of ritual and music education was binding on traitors. Confucius didn't want to go to Lu without a monarch, so he came to Qi and worked as a servant in Dr. Gao's house, teaching and educating people. During this period, I talked with Master Qi about etiquette and music. I had the opportunity to hear Shaole and felt that Shaole was perfect, so I devoted myself to studying for three months. Immersed in music, I don't even know the taste of meat when I eat, and I forget myself.
I tried to answer:
1. What is Shaole?
Shaole is a kind of music that praises Shun De and politics. Peace in the world is what Yao Chan gave up. Shunchuan is in the land, so it is peaceful. So Confucius praised Shun's happiness as both beautiful and beautiful. He won the world because of cutting Zhou, and his joy was accompanied by the sound of war, so Confucius' joy was complete, but not perfect.
2. Why does Qi have less fun?
Li Lezhi of the Han Dynasty said that after Chen Shun, he was less happy in Chen, and in the Spring and Autumn Period, when Chen Gongzi finished (Chen) ruling Qi, he devoted himself to Qi politics for a long time. When he arrived, Chen's generation was already complete. Qinai has a good time.
Japanese Takehiro said: The destruction of Qi Huangong has brought gains. The same is true after Shun.
3. Is it that everyone will be filled with emotion after listening to Shao Le, and don't know the taste of March meat?
Confucius, a great musician, said, "I'm glad to know." . Initiate, as if also; From it, if it is pure, if it is good. "Historical Records Biography of Confucius said: Confucius learned the piano from Xiangzi not only to learn his music score, but also to gain his ambition through his own experience. Confucius started a school as a disciple at the age of 30. At that time, the subjects he taught were called "Six Arts", namely: poetry, calligraphy, ceremony, Yi, Yue, Spring and Autumn. In this regard, "Historical Records Confucius Family" contains: "Confucius teaches with poetry. "After traveling around the world and returning to Lu, Confucius said," I will guard against Lu, and then I will enjoy myself, elegance and praise. " "There are 350 poems, all of which are recited by Confucius, which are suitable for Shao, Wu, Ya and Ode. Rites and music can be described from now on." These records show that Confucius is proficient in music theory and temperament.
A great musician like Confucius, with his metaphysical connotation, yearned for a harmonious world of Yao and Shun all his life. Therefore, he realized the way of Yao and Shun in Shaole, a symbol of Wang Shun's achievements. He could immerse himself in the artistic conception of Shaole, and even didn't feel the delicious meat when eating it.
And the average person, without that kind of musical accomplishment, without the connotation of pottery, without yearning for Yaoshun Avenue, can't appreciate the artistic conception of less music.
4. Confucius didn't know the taste of March meat. Is it too addictive, not in the middle?
The art corresponding to the avenue is not comparable to ordinary hobbies. A saint has seven emotions. Emotions and sorrows love evil desires, not in the middle, but in the middle.
5. How can we understand the realm and connotation of music?
To improve music literacy, we must enhance the connotation and understand the musician's mind, so as to understand the realm and connotation of beautiful music.
6. Is this chapter also the embodiment of Confucius' music knowledge?
Music is one of the six essential skills of Confucian gentlemen (shooting books with rites and music). Confucius said: A gentleman does more than he does. Although versatility is not necessarily a gentleman, a gentleman must be versatile. There are many descriptions of Confucius' musical attainments in Shengtu: learning to be a pianist, visiting Yue Changhong, and Qi Wenshao not knowing the taste of meat in March. Especially when the sage learned from Qin, he didn't change the tune for ten days in a row, and finally realized that the tune was Cao's, which made him amazed and admired the wisdom of the sage.
Confucius understood the metaphysical connotation, but he also needed to learn metaphysical skills. Confucius studied music with great care and understanding. Only by grasping the metaphysical connotation and mastering learning can we reach the highest level of wandering in art. Nowadays, education often puts the cart before the horse, focusing only on learning skills without cultural connotation. This kind of learning, the realm of skills is impossible to go deep. Second, without the soul of culture, people will become craftsmen who only know technology.
A real artist should be a gentleman like Confucius, with the highest connotation, the second skill, and self-cultivation both inside and outside.
I have to feel that in today's era, craftsmen are easy to have, but artists are hard to have!
7. Why is it described as not knowing the taste of meat?
Whether ancient meat is a precious food or not, the taste of meat is very beautiful. This is why I don't know the taste of meat to describe the beauty of artistic conception of less happiness.
Instructed by Teacher Tang:
1. What kind of music is Shaole? Why can you smell Shao Le in Qi?
Shao Yue, the music of Shun Wang, narrates the great virtue of Shun Wang's education. Confucius was in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, and his descendants were sealed in the State of Chen by the Zhou Dynasty, so Shaole should stay in the State of Chen, but Confucius heard that Shaole was in Qi because Chen Wan, Chen's son, fled to Qi and brought Shaole with him. Wen Shaole, on behalf of Confucius, not only listens, but also follows.
2. March I wonder if March is a real number. Why March?
March represents a learning stage, a period of time, not necessarily 90 days. In ancient books, I saw numbers such as three and nine, some real and some imaginary. If they are imaginary numbers, it means the majority.
3. Why use meat to compare?
In the previous environment, eating meat was a rare thing. Ordinary people have little chance to eat meat, which is delicious. When eating meat, you must immerse yourself and savor it. Confucius forgot the taste of meat when he studied Shao Le, which showed that he was absorbed in his study and didn't know the taste of food.
If you change it to the current example, you can take the mobile phone as an example to learn a subject, but forgot to use it in March.
4. Why is Confucius so happy? Is it wrong to be so immersed in it?
The Book of History records that Wang Shun appointed sages, established orderly politics by courtesy, and Yue Guankui created less music. It describes that Wang Shun won merits and was banished to the world, and the court officials performed their duties, diligent and harmonious, showing the peaceful scene of Wang Shun's successful governance. Confucius likes diving and learning, and goes deep into it layer by layer to feel the great virtues of Wang Shun. How can such an understanding not conform to the middle way?
Music tip:
Musical instruments are blue, bell, drum, piano and so on. The three-character scripture says that "wood, stone, gold, silk and bamboo are eight tones". Musical instruments made of eight bells can play five scales, among which drums can be harmonized with various musical instruments without hitting any scales.
The pentatonic scale refers to the order of five degrees, from palace sound to aftersound, and the order is: palace-top-angle-positive sound; If arranged in pitch order, it is: 1 2 3 5 6 Gong Shang Jiao Qian (zhǐ) feather. "Harmony, division, b, tardiness and fairness" were used in the Tang Dynasty.
The five tones of Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zheng and Yu match the five internal organs of Ling Xie Shu Ke: the spleen corresponds to Gong (1), and the voice is slow and slow; The lung should respond to quotient (2), and its sound promotes clarity; Liver response angle ③, sound length; Heart should be applied (5), its statement; The kidney should be feathered (6), and its sound is heavy and thin, which is the normal tone of the five internal organs.
"Palace" belongs to the master of the five tones, the king of the five tones, and dominates all the tones. "Business belongs to gold, which is the image of a minister" and "I am in harmony with it". "Horn belongs to wood, which is the image of human beings". The sign is fire, and it is the image of things. Feather belongs to water, and it is the image of things.
