Tai Chi Star! Dao fights!
Zhuangzi and Yang Zhu sat opposite each other, looking at each other. The two people's great road spread out, and their voices reached the world. Everyone in the world listened attentively and listened to the discussion of these two giants.
Yang Zhu took a deep breath and spoke first.
"In the past, I took my disciples to the Song Dynasty and stayed in an inn. The owner of the inn had two concubines. One was beautiful and the other was ugly. The strange thing was that the ugly concubine had a higher status than the beautiful concubine. , I asked the shop owner why.
The shop owner said: 'The pretty one thinks she is pretty but doesn't know how to make progress. After we have been together for a long time, I have seen her too much and I have forgotten how beautiful she is. Ugly is humble and polite, and ugliness is natural. After seeing her too much, I have forgotten her ugliness. After living for a long time, I no longer care about beauty or ugliness, I only care about moral character! Those who are virtuous, humble and courteous will naturally be more valued by me.
I was deeply touched after hearing this, so I warned the students: 'You must remember that if you practice virtue and get rid of the arrogance of thinking you are virtuous, you will be loved and respected by people wherever you go! '" Yang Zhu solemnly told a fable.
The story is simple, but full of philosophy, instantly attracting countless people around the world to nod. Obviously, Yang Zhu could become Lao Tzu's disciple because he was not a fool. On the contrary, he had his own strong intellectual ability.
"This is what I want to talk about today, and it is also the Taoism described by Lao Tzu. The body is heavy and the things are light. You can only improve your self-cultivation and make your most essential self valuable. Those external things are not important, such as appearance, family, money, etc. , are all floating clouds. I, a Taoist disciple, must value oneself! Those who value oneself can take everything lightly! This is what I want to tell you today about the theory of "nourishing oneself". Please learn from it all!" Yang Zhu spoke again road.
Yang Zhu's opening sentence immediately caused countless people to nod.
Zhuangzi, who was opposite, stared at Yang Zhu, pondered for a moment, and shook his head: "To value oneself is a state of self-knowledge, which makes people independent from other things, but also fettered by things. If there is no support from all things, how can it be possible?" Distinction between lightness and wealth
To value yourself, take things lightly first! If nothing is light, how can one be so valuable
How can we conform to Taoism as described by Laozi
What Lao Tzu said about Taoism should be regarded as the natural way of heaven!
It is better to forget yourself than to value yourself!
Riding on things and following the heart, communicating with heaven and earth alone.
To forget yourself, you need to forget the gains and losses in reality, forget the value of all things, and break away from fame and fortune, only then can you follow your own heart! Zhuangzi said.
Value yourself over things, forget yourself and follow your heart!
Suddenly, the two started discussing, and the two thoughts immediately collided.
Countless people in the world also listened attentively.
Because, in this argument, no one can be sure who is wrong and who is right. Why do hundreds of schools of thought contend? There is great truth in each of their thoughts, but they cannot represent everything. Need to argue.
Zhuangzi and Yang Zhu were like this at the moment. From the beginning, it was already intense.
One person speaks and the other person argues.
"Forget yourself? If you forget yourself, you will lose yourself. What's the use of losing yourself? The self-forgetfulness you mentioned does not exist at all!" Yang Zhu said coldly.
"How can you not exist because your realm is not enough? Do you know the real person? My great master is talking about the real person. The real person forgets himself and follows his heart!" Zhuangzi said.
"Grand master? Specializes in speaking about real people? You have studied the great master for many years just to argue with me? Oh, I also want to hear what fallacies you have that can help you defend me!" Yang Zhu looked at Zhuangzi coldly.
"The one who knows what Heaven is doing and what man is doing is the best! ... What is a real person? A real person in ancient times does not rebel against the few, does not become a hero, and does not act against others... The real person in ancient times...!"
Death and life are fate; its constant night and day are heaven. What people can't get away from is the emotion of things. Peter regards heaven as his father, yet he is worried and loves him, and how wonderful it is! People especially think that having a king will heal themselves, but the body is still dead, how much more is it true! "
Zhuangzi opens the chapter "The Great Master" by describing an ideal "real person". A real person can achieve "no distinction between heaven" and "human". Therefore, a "real person" can achieve "no one", "selflessness" and "self-forgetfulness". , the spiritual realm of real people is the visualization of 'Tao'.
Under the opening chapter of The Great Master, Zhuangzi's ocean of greatness surged instantly. Countless people have not been able to comprehend the realm Zhuangzi mentioned. However, although they cannot understand it, the changes in the ocean of greatness can still be seen.
On the rolling sea of the avenue, a vague figure gradually condensed.
That vague figure is an image of Tao, representing the general appearance of a Taoist leader.
Shaped by Tao, Zhuangzi uses 'real people' to determine Taoist leaders
Yang Zhu's face darkened, knowing that he could not delay any longer.
"In terms of respecting oneself, if people don't do it for themselves, they will be punished by heaven and earth! It is natural and right for people to do it for themselves! Those who do it for themselves will naturally follow the way of heaven...!" Yang Zhu said.
For a time, Yang Zhu's theory also resounded throughout the world, and its purple sea of dao was also churning. Faintly, the outline of an avenue is formed.
When they reached the height of Yang Zhu and Zhuangzi, their words and deeds affected the entire Taoist world.
No one knows which one is right, whether to cherish oneself or forget oneself, and which one is the highest state of Taoism. However, from the conflict between the two of them, it can be seen that the two people's doctrines are extremely exciting, and they are even more competitive. among.
When thoughts reach a certain level, they are no longer understandable to ordinary people. The only thing ordinary people can do is to record them and think about them later.
Above the major stars, what can be seen is the sky above Tai Chi Star. The two avenue seas, purple and black, rotate slowly, forming a pattern of yin and yang fish, competing with each other. It is also slowly expanding.
The disciples of Yang Zhu Academy and Xiaoyao Academy all over the world clenched their fists, waiting for the final result.
The Grand Master talked about the real person and compared the real person to stars. For a moment, countless stars in the outer world lit up, and the power of the stars suddenly gathered from all directions and poured into the sea of dao.
"boom!"
Suddenly, Zhuangzi's vast ocean of great wisdom became even greater.
"Yang Zhu is at a disadvantage, his Daohai has been suppressed by Zhuangzi!"
"Is Yang Zhu going to lose?"
"Zhuangzi's great road is so terrifying!"
… … … …
… … …
…
Countless exclamations came from all directions.
As the great master continued, it became increasingly difficult to resist Yang Zhu's theory of valuing oneself.
However, Yang Zhu was not depressed at this moment. On the contrary, Yang Zhu showed excitement.
Right in the center of the Dao Zhengtai where Yang Zhu and Zhuangzi were, a crack in the void seemed to appear, and a trace of purple light emerged from the crack in the void.
At the same time, the crack in the void seemed to be generating a suction force, pulling in the aura of the Great Dao of the Sky, as if it was pulling Zhuangzi and Yang Zhu's Great Dao Sea into it.
"Huh?" Zhuangzi was slightly stunned.
"My guess is indeed good. The location where the moral token is sensed is right here. In the crack in the void, there is a big secret left by me, and this big secret requires Zhuangzi's Dao breath to open it!" Yang Zhu revealed There was a rush of excitement.
It turns out that Yang Zhu set the venue for the Dao fight here in order to use Zhuangzi's avenue to unlock the secret left by Laozi.
"Yang Zhu, what have you done?" Zhuangzi's face darkened.
Yang Zhu on the opposite side sneered and said: "I didn't do anything, I just heard that you, the great master Zhuangzi, satisfied me very much!"
"No, there must be something in this space-time rift. It's pulling at my sea of avenues, as if it's merging with something? It seems to be Laozi's avenue, the most primitive Taoist avenue? What's going on here...!" Zhuangzi frowned.
"Not only your Daohai, but also my Daohai has entered. I understand that this is the real Dao of Lao Tzu, and it is also the most fundamental Dao that I leave to future generations to deal with the ancient food tribe. Only by integrating the gifts of Lao Tzu can we It is Lao Tzu’s Taoism who is qualified to determine the Taoism of the world!” Yang Zhu’s eyes lit up.
"What did you say?" Zhuangzi raised his eyebrows.
"Grandmaster? You can't achieve it by relying on a single statement. I am the real great master, and you can inherit Laozi's Taoist orthodoxy by integrating it with Laozi's Dao. That’s right!” Yang Zhu sneered.
Zhuangzi looked at Yang Zhu and sneered: "I don't know if what you said is right, but I understand that now, when you and I fight, I surpass you in terms of realm and size! Even if, Your and my Dao are one with Lao Tzu’s Dao, and that’s how I become orthodox!”
"You and I argue, if you win, you are indeed the orthodox, but what if I win?" Yang Zhu sneered.
"You win? Ha, hahaha, your theory of self-esteem has been suppressed by my grand master. How can you win?" Zhuangzi sneered.
"I've only said half of what you said about your self. How do you know that you will definitely win?" Yang Zhu said proudly.
"oh?"
"On the theory of valuing yourself, you value yourself over things. Didn't you realize that Confucianism also values humanity and despises the way of heaven?" Yang Zhu said with a smile.
"What did you say?" Zhuangzi raised his eyebrows.
"Your self-forgetfulness means emphasizing the way of nature and underestimating the way of humanity, while my respect for oneself means emphasizing the way of humanity and underestimating the way of heaven! Two opposing ideas, valuing oneself, are also related to Confucianism. Confucius puts etiquette first and people-oriented. By borrowing the theories of Confucius and integrating my noble self, I can have the Confucian Confucianism and Taoism. The white tiger can tear your Taoism into pieces!" Yang Zhu snorted coldly.
"Roar~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!"
Then he saw a monstrous white tiger suddenly appear in Yang Zhu's Great Dao Sea. The white tiger roared ferociously and rushed toward Zhuangzi's Great Dao Sea.
At the same time, countless scholars all over the world stared wide-eyed.
"Valuing the way of humanity and despising the way of heaven? Value yourself and Confucianism? How is this possible? Yang Zhu can also integrate Confucianism into his own thoughts?" Countless people exclaimed.
"I, a Taoist, should be open to all rivers and integrate Confucianism, why not? Zhuangzi, if you want to suppress my Taoism, you have to tear my Taoism into pieces!" Yang Zhu sneered.
"boom!"
The white tiger of the Great Dao rushed into the sea of Zhuangzi's Dao, impacting ferociously and constantly tearing apart the sea of Zhuangzi's Dao.
In an instant, countless butterflies and giant rocs flew out of the sea of Zhuangzi's avenue, but they were allowed to be torn apart by white tigers, refusing to fight.
The big advantage Zhuangzi had just now disappeared in an instant.
Zhuangzi's face turned ugly for a while.
"How about it? If you want to defeat me, you must destroy me, the white tiger of the Great Dao. Use your Zhuangzi thoughts to severely destroy Confucius' thoughts. Only by destroying Confucius' thoughts can you defeat me, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!" Yang Zhu laughed proudly.
Yang Zhu knew that Wang Xiong had traveled through Confucius, so he thought he had found Zhuangzi's weakness. Although Zhuangzi did not know what method he used to stabilize the integration of Confucianism and Taoism, this must be in a balance. It’s not that Confucianism is gone.
Thoughts are indestructible! Unless you die!
Asking Zhuangzi to destroy Confucian thought is basically asking Wang Xiong to commit suicide.
It's like using the left brain to kill the right brain. When the right brain dies and the balance is broken, the left brain will also die.
If Zhuangzi could not destroy Yang Zhu, the White Tiger of the Great Dao, he could only give up the huge victory he had just achieved to others.
Give in, admit defeat, and let Yang Zhu win
"Hahahaha!" Yang Zhu laughed.
At this most critical moment, giving the most fatal blow is the best use of Zhuangzi's weakness.
