Zen, Tea and Heart (II) Enlightenment of Sages' Health Care Wisdom
In an extraordinary period, no matter what kind of situation we are in, it may be beneficial to our emotional adjustment to spend more than ten minutes feeling the health wisdom of sages.

The excellent traditional culture of the Chinese nation stresses "self-cultivation, governing the country and leveling the world". The first is to pay attention to the cultivation of knowledge. Speaking of self-cultivation, in China culture, it includes body and mind, and body and mind are two different things. Body also represents the heart, that is, modern physiology and psychology are inseparable, which is omitted as "self-cultivation" Confucius said that "literature" and "quality" are body, which actually includes the cultivation of mind and the integration of body and mind.

China culture emphasizes self-cultivation, including the content of health preservation. Cultivate one's morality internally and complete one's world work externally. Starting from the thoughts of pre-Qin philosophers, it emphasizes paying attention to health preservation and perfecting personality and wisdom; From Neo-Confucianism in the Song and Ming Dynasties to Yangming's Mind Theory. , are the way of keeping in good health, the way of nourishing the heart, and the way of governing the world.

First, Confucius talked about health care.

"Benevolent people live long", "benevolent people don't worry" and "great virtue leads to longevity" are the guidelines of health preservation. "Open-minded people, open-minded, poised" pay attention to self-cultivation, self-improvement, aboveboard, heroic, and beneficial to physical and mental health. "Confucius' Family Language" says: "Long live the gods who eat gas; He who eats grain dies of wisdom; People who don't eat, die and become gods; Omnivores are home to evil spirits. And the principles of "Eight Don't Eat", "Three Commandments for Gentlemen" and "Jiu Si", which are aimed at regulating diet, adjusting mentality, grasping the middle way and maintaining a normal mind, are the source of health and the foundation of longevity.

Second, Zhuangzi talks about keeping in good health.

There is a saying in Zhuangzi's Health Master: "Good has no near name, and evil has no near punishment. The governor thinks that you can protect yourself, you can live all your life, you can support your relatives, and you can spend all your years. " The core idea of China's health culture is presented in a very clear and essential way. It also complements the meaning of Buddhism that "all evil things should be avoided, all good deeds should be done, and self-purification is all Buddhism". "The body is clean, so the heart is clean, the heart is clean, so the body is clean." Health preservation means nourishing the heart, which is also called "nourishing the heart", and nourishing the nature means life in it. The study of mind and nature is the only way, such as the way of yin and yang is mutual news.

The article "Jing Yue Quan Shu Qi Tong Lun" said: "My wife's life is nothing more than influenced by heaven and earth. And its formation, and always push blood for use; However, blood cannot be separated from qi, and qi cannot be separated from blood. ..... so all diseases are born of qi. " "All diseases are born of qi and are used by qi, which is everywhere. If they don't adjust, they will all get sick. "

"If you are more frivolous about the spirit of ambition, you will not get rid of any diseases. This is a great way to adjust your spirit." . Give full play to the wonderful use of the emotional mechanism in Huangdi Neijing, and lay the foundation for future generations' health preservation.

Health is in regulating qi, and regulating qi should know how to regulate the heart. At the same time, in the theory of shape management, it is emphasized that "people do not know the way to cultivate shape, and those who are good at keeping in good health should not cultivate this shape first, but be the home of the gods;" Those who are good at treating diseases can't treat this shape first, but it is the foundation of rejuvenation? " This "way of shaping" actually originated from the true marrow of Zhuangzi. "Master Zhuangzi" says: "My husband carries me, labors me, worries me about my old age, and dies; Therefore, those who are good at me live and those who are good at me die. Good, good in old age, good at the beginning and good at the end, people are still effective, but what is the situation of everything, and what is that (qi)? "

A wise man who is good at keeping in good health should be good at mastering and exerting the Qi (Tao) to which everything belongs. This is also the main purpose of Zhang Jingyue's exposition.

This is the so-called "Qi" (Tao), which is closely related to the "life instinct theory", or "Tao is interlinked".

Third, Mencius stresses health preservation.

"Benevolent people are invincible" and "a gentleman does not complain about others"; "I am good at cultivating my noble spirit"; "Wealth can't be lewd, poverty can't be moved, and power can't be bent." The gentleman "is poor, he is good, and good helps the world." "If Heaven wants to be a great man in Sri Lanka, it must first suffer from its mind, its bones and muscles, its body and skin, its empty body, and its actions, so it is impossible to be patient." Mencius said, we should be healthy and be an indomitable spirit. Keep in good health and raise your heart, and be determined to become a success. Mencius also said, "What you want is goodness, and what you want is faith. Enrichment is beauty, enrichment and brilliance are greatness, greatness is holiness, and holiness is God. " It is the highest state of health and heart.

"Book of Changes, Tong Ren Gua" "Only a gentleman's ambition, in order to pass the world." In fact, each of us has a gentleman's talent, which can be achieved through learning, self-cultivation and foothold in the world. Of course, there are methods and rules to follow.

Knowing the Book of Changes, all the changes in life have come, and we can really spend it in poverty and happiness. This doesn't mean doing nothing. On the contrary, it means doing what should be done and not doing what should not be done. Obey the laws of nature. As China's classic biography "The Book of Changes" said, "The husband is in harmony with heaven and earth, with the sun and the moon, with the four seasons, and with ghosts and gods." In this way, we can better grasp the opportunity, and Qi Xin will work together to turn the tide and go to victory with * * *.

We should base ourselves on reality and do what we should do. When our mentality and emotions are self-adjusted, our minds will be clearer and more open, which will help us cultivate our own spirit; Be kind to yourself and your family, and be kind to your brothers and sisters all over the world; It is more helpful to give play to your intelligence, do your duty and do what you should do better!
