Zhang Hengqu, a great scholar in the Northern Song Dynasty:
Represents heaven and earth, represents life,
For the past and the future, for eternal peace.
Heart is heaven and earth: heaven and earth are unintentional, but endless, and biochemical things are the heart of heaven and earth. Therefore, Cheng said, "Heaven and earth are unintentional, but creatures are the heart." He said, "Heaven and earth were formed unintentionally." Because the biochemistry of heaven and earth is only the natural popularization of the virtue of life, it is not intended to give birth to such a vast world. So it is "unintentional" and "Chenghua". Unintentional and intentional (taking biology as the heart) is people's kind concern for the virtue of heaven and earth. Through people's attention and guidance, the heart of the universe will be highlighted.
For the heart of the world
Song and Ming thinkers' requirements for moral cultivation. In the Northern Song Dynasty, Zhang Zai proposed that "establish the heart of heaven and earth, establish the way of the people, go to the sacred school, and create eternal peace" ("Quotations from Zhang Zi"? Ideal of life in quotations. When he said stand up, he was actually determined to win. Lu Jiuyuan in the Southern Song Dynasty also said that "the heart should be established": "The heart can't gurgle, only stand on its own feet." ("Lu Jiuyuan Collection? Quotations) He believes that "the heart is the reason", and moral norms such as benevolence, righteousness, courtesy and wisdom are inherent in people's hearts.
A New Interpretation of "Four for Sentences"
"make a heart for heaven and earth"
-a new interpretation of Zhang zai's "four sentences"
Zhang Zai, a famous Neo-Confucianist and Guan Xue leader in the Northern Song Dynasty, was called Mr. Hengqu (1020- 1077), leaving many valuable spiritual heritages for later generations, including his four famous sayings:
The heart of heaven and earth,
Make a living for the people,
For the sake of past success,
Create peace for the world.
These four famous sayings have been passed down for generations. * * * The Prime Minister's speeches abroad or interviews with reporters have been quoted many times; In 2005, Mr. Lien Chan, then chairman of the People First Party, visited the mainland, which was also used to send a message to Peking University students. It shows that the spiritual appeal of Zhang Zai's four famous sayings is strong. According to Zhang Zai's four famous sayings, there is a word "Wei" at the beginning of every sentence, which can be abbreviated as "four sentences". For "four sentences", the difficulty in explanation lies in the first sentence. Based on years of research experience, the author briefly explains "four for one sentence" as follows.
The first sentence is "for heaven and earth". The more popular explanation is that heaven and earth are unintentional, people have hearts, and people's hearts are also "the hearts of heaven and earth"; "Keeping a heart of heaven and earth" means developing people's thinking ability and understanding natural things and laws. This is a misunderstanding. First of all, in ancient times, the word "heaven and earth" did not specifically refer to nature. There is a "three talents" universe model about heaven, earth and man in the Confucian classic Yi Zhuan, which shows that the ancients tend to regard heaven, earth and man as a whole. So "heaven and earth" is "between heaven and earth", including not only nature, but also individuals and human society. Zhang Zai also called the "heaven and earth" of social significance "world". Secondly, Zhang Zai did not deny the existence of "the heart of heaven and earth". "The Heart of Heaven and Earth" is Zhouyi? As a famous Yi-ology scholar, Zhang Zai believes that "the heart of heaven and earth is just a creature." ("Hengqu is easy to say? Obviously, in the sense that heaven and earth can generate everything, Zhang Zai affirmed that heaven and earth are intentional. The heart of life is inherent in heaven and earth, so there is no need for people to "stand up", otherwise their abilities will be unduly exaggerated. "Building the heart of heaven and earth" is actually to establish a spiritual value system with benevolence, filial piety and other moral ethics as the core for the society. In his book The Cave of Confucian Classics, Zhang Zai focused on the significance and methods of "establishing faith". If you turn a blind eye, your understanding of "Lixin" is easy to be guessed. In Zhang Zai's view, "establishing heart" is also the heart of "establishing righteousness", because justice "can make the world happy", so that "the world" (society) must generally accept moral values such as the principle of benevolence and filial piety. ("Zheng Meng? Judging from these data, the meaning of "establishing heaven and earth" is very clear, and its focus is not epistemology, but axiology.
The second sentence is "making a living for the people". "Destiny" refers to people, and "destiny" refers to people's fate. This involves the problem of "settling down" that Confucianism has been paying attention to. The history books say that Zhang Zai "enjoyed his life". The "fate" of "making a living for the people" mainly refers to people's fate. It has long been popular in history that people can only resign themselves to fate. However, Zhang Zai believes that as long as people make their own moral efforts, they can control their own destiny in spiritual value and give meaning to life. Therefore, "making a living for the people" means choosing the right destiny direction for the people and establishing the meaning of life.
The third sentence is "a lesson from the past." "Most Holy" refers to the saints in history. The so-called saints in Confucianism actually refer to personality models and spiritual leaders. "Juexue" refers to the interrupted academic tradition. Neo-Confucianism generally believes that the Confucian school system has been extinct since Mencius, and efforts should be made to restore it ...
Question 2: Make a heart for heaven and earth, make a life for the people, link the past with the future, and create a peaceful future for all generations. What do you mean? The score of 10 shows that the scholar has the heart of heaven and earth, indicating that he knows everything and knows the knowledge of the operation of heaven and earth, so he does not doubt this practice. To live for the people is to serve the people, and it is our duty to rehabilitate the wrongs. In order to make the past serve the present and inherit the theory of ancient saints, we should study hard and never get tired of it. To create eternal peace, we should also wave flags and shout for eternal peace to prevent instability in troubled times.
Question 3: Please explain the meaning of "making a heart for heaven and earth, making a life for the people, connecting the past with the future, and peace for all generations":
Establish the heart of life for heaven and earth, point out a way for the people to follow, inherit the knowledge of Confucius and Mencius and other sages, and open up the foundation of permanent peace for future generations.
Explanation:
1, "setting up the heart of heaven and earth" means that people are born with a benevolent heart and a sage is a grand duke's heart. In fact, compassion is the heart that can't bear others, which is what Confucius said, "Don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you", which is the starting point of benevolence. In this way, Mr. Ma Yifu concluded: "Scholars should not seek benevolence with knowledge, and be kind and heartless, but should be based on the heart of heaven and earth. "
2. "Making a living for the people" comes directly from Mencius' thought of "making a living". There is a saying in Mencius: "He who does his best knows his nature. If you know its nature, you will know its nature. Keep your heart and cultivate your nature, then things will be natural. I want to live a long life, and I cultivate my self-cultivation, so I am very firm. " Through self-cultivation, if a person can finally achieve such a state that he can maintain his sexual integrity regardless of his life span, then the individual can be said to have settled down. The "life for the people" marked by Zhang Zai is actually "life for the people, the life of my compatriots", and its life lies in teaching, and "cultivation is called teaching", which is the so-called.
3. "The past is not forgotten", so those who "go to the holy" are the first to promote Confucianism represented by Confucius and Mencius; Juexue is Taoism advocated by Confucius and Mencius. As far as Confucianism is concerned, Confucius is certainly a master, and the Song Dynasty masters such as Lian, Luo, Guan and Min pushed the development of Confucianism to a brand-new stage. Only Confucianism in Song Dynasty can truly carry forward Confucius and Mencius.
4. "Harmony is the world" expresses the eternal political ideal of pre-Qin Confucianism and Song Confucianism. The expectation of "openness" is called. Only by "making peace for the world" and realizing the cultural ideal described in Zhang Zai's Mingxi can ignorant modern people return to the honest spiritual home of mankind.
Ye Caijie: "Heaven and earth take life as their heart, and saints and counselors educate them, so that everything has its own life and is also the heart of heaven and earth;" Clarifying justice and principles and cultivating principles are also the way for the people; Following Juexue means to describe orthodoxy; When peace is achieved, it is said that if there is a king, Fallise will be occupied and it will last forever. Press: Neo-Confucianism in the Song Dynasty believed that Taoism came from Yao, Shun, Yu, Tang,. As for Confucius, as for Mencius. Mencius did not, nor did his Tao spread. It was not until Song Ruxing that he advocated knowledge that had not been handed down for thousands of years. So it's called "going to a holy school". Make way for the people, Selected Works of Cross Canal? "Sexism" means "making life for the people."
Supplement:
If the landlord takes this as a novel, I think it's quite difficult. Because this is the expression of Confucian lofty sentiments and ambitions, it is difficult to integrate current online novels, especially articles about modern cities or self-cultivation. Of course, if the landlord is of other types, it is another matter. The hero of the novel, as upstairs said, should be upright, preferably an official, and can benefit the people and build the country.
Question 4: What is love? Love is a great existence.
Love is a child who plays house.
Only by playing house can you get true love.
But once it comes true, then love will disappear.
Question 5: What does it mean to create heaven and earth? The main point is to make peace with each other, but the sergeant is not smooth, and his talent and ambition cannot be displayed. He can only give lectures, write books and create ideas.
Zhang Zai, a famous Neo-Confucianist in the Northern Song Dynasty and a leader of Guan Xue, left many valuable spiritual heritages for later generations, including his four famous sayings, namely, to stand for heaven and earth, to stand for the people, to make a legacy for the past and the future, and to make the world peaceful.
These four famous sayings have been passed down for generations. It shows that the spiritual appeal of Zhang Zai's four famous sayings is strong.

Question 6: What do you mean by making a living for heaven and earth? This is the first half of Mr. Zhang Zai's sentence.
The heart of heaven and earth ... the heart of heaven and earth is unintentional ... as Lao Tzu said, heaven and earth are heartless, and everything is a grass dog. Because the greatest benevolence of heaven and earth is justice that never favors everything in the world, heaven and earth are actually benevolent, but the so-called benevolence is also our subjective feeling, that is to say, the heart of heaven and earth is the heart of benevolence ... and the heart of heaven and earth really depends on us to build it.
Making a living for the people ... there is an idiom called settlement ... this sentence by Mr. Zhang Zai is the highest pursuit of Confucianism ... and there is another sentence in the highest pursuit of Confucianism, "cultivate one's morality, govern the country and level the world." How to govern the country? Just let the people around you settle down and settle down. Governing the country means letting the people in the world settle down and settle down ... Everyone in the world will complete the number of governing the country, but there are so many people in the world ... Therefore, it is impossible to do these two things with simple help ... So we can only make a living for the people-guide them in the right direction.

Question 8: Scholars are the heart of heaven and earth, the life of the people, the career of the former dynasty, and the security of the world! What do you mean? Hello, this sentence was said by Zhang Zai, a scholar in the Northern Song Dynasty. Yuan Tengfei once said, "Every time my senior three children graduate, I will write them a paragraph on the blackboard. This passage was said by Zhang Zai, a neo-Confucian in the Song Dynasty: A scholar is the heart of heaven and earth, the life of the people, the legacy of future generations, and the security of all ages. I told the students that we should follow Zhang's four-point study. In fact, sometimes I'm not sure how many students can listen, but I think even if a child listens, I won't talk in vain. " This is the responsibility of a scholar, and the most important thing is to learn from the past. Inherit the theory of ancient saints, study hard and never get tired. That's all that matters. As a student, my future wish is this. As a teacher, teach students knowledge and inherit Juexue. Thank you for your adoption. Please ask questions.
