First, writing can start writing about the world.
1472, a generation of sage Wang Shouren was born in the Ming dynasty, and his birth was just like that in the novel. It is described in the novel that the father is the number one scholar, and the mother is pregnant 14 months before giving birth to the child. Before giving birth to the child, the grandmother dreamed that the gods descended from the sky and the gods came down from the clouds with a child in their arms. Wang Yangming didn't speak until he was 5 years old, but he was already full of knowledge.
Young and promising, he entered the official career, denying the sage Zhu's theory of "learning from others" After he realized Taoism in Longchang, he founded his own school of mind, and put forward the philosophical theories of "mind is reason", "unity of knowledge and action" and "conscience":
Mind is reason: "righteousness" is in everyone's heart. People should improve their inner cultivation and wisdom through "the unity of knowing and doing", without harming others' self-interest, eliminating distractions and striving for altruism, so as to achieve the harmonious operation of society. This is everyone's "conscience". ?
"Mind is reason" is the reason,
"Unity of knowing and doing" is a process practice.
"Conscience" is the fundamental purpose,
The three constitute a whole and are indispensable.
Judging from the fact that "Wen can write a pen to secure the world", there are only a handful of people who can compete with Wang Yangming.
Second, I got on the horse and decided to be Kun.
Wang Yangming is also a standout in the military. He is not an armchair strategist like Zhao Kuo, but a genius of "knowing and doing in one". His military thinking and archery are first-rate. ?
15 16, Wang Yangming became an imperial adviser, in charge of the mountainous areas bordering Jiangxi, Fujian, Hunan and Guangdong provinces. However, local bandits are rampant. Due to the special terrain and spies, the court could do nothing about them.
15 17, Wang Yangming, with a group of generals, put down the bandits who had been in trouble for ten years and was exclaimed as a god by the local people.
In A.D. 19, Zhu, king of Ning, rose up to 65,438+10,000 troops and rebelled against the imperial court. This Ning Wang is the one in "Chou-heung in Tang Bohu Hall". In "Chou-heung in Tang Bohu Hall", he is both civil and military in Tang Bohu. He defeated the deadly scholar with the Tang overlord gun and got Ning Wang. But in reality, Tang Bohu escaped by pretending to be crazy and selling stupidity, and spent the rest of his life miserably.
It was Wang Yangming who really put down the rebellion. He launched a "psychological war", skillfully used deviant ways, shot a letter with an arrow to provoke internal relations in Wang Ning, and trapped Wang Ning in his hometown of Nanchang. Then he skillfully used the tactics of transferring mountain tigers, encircling Wei to save Zhao, scheming and burning ships. And created the myth that "a scholar without a single soldier spent 35 days to settle 65,438+10,000 rebels".
Third, be both civil and military, and create a generation of saints.
Wang Yangming was deliberately downplayed because he respected the theory of mind, which was inconsistent with many mainstream thoughts in modern times. But true saints will not be covered up and forgotten. His thoughts and actions shine brilliantly and deeply affect us.
But at present, people in East Asia are most influenced by Wang Yangming's thought. For example, the rise of modern Japan relies on the ubiquitous craftsman spirit, and the real essence and core of the craftsman spirit is actually Wang Yangming's "mind study". Fortunately, in recent years, Wang Yangming's thought has been highly respected by us and began to return to the public's field of vision.
As a China person, we really can't forget Wang Yangming!
