This mountain is named after it.
Not long ago, my brother and I came here. Although the time was a little hasty, it caught up with the fact that some exhibition halls were not open. But after a turn, there is still a lingering sound in my ear, which has been three days.
Why did Mr. Peng Zu retire to the mountain here? This is my first doubt when I walked into this place.
Peng Zu, surnamed Peng Mingkeng, was born in Xia Dynasty. He is the great-grandson of Emperor Zhuan Xu, the eighth generation descendant of Emperor Xuanyuan, and a veritable royal blood. Led the troops to capture Xuzhou and named it Pengcheng. Now it seems that it is impossible to verify whether Xuzhou is named after him or Pengcheng is named after him. It is said that he lived to the age of 800, worked as a court doctor in Shang Dynasty and an official in charge of court records in Zhou Dynasty. Although he is also a ministerial-level cadre, he has no real power. There is no doubt that there are too many things to see in this position, I have no right to speak, and my qualifications are too old. It seems an inevitable choice to resign and leave.
I think this should be the main reason why he left the officialdom and his hometown.
But why do you only like this land? In this respect, when you walk on the Pengzu Mountain for a while, you will be suddenly enlightened.
Although the mountain is only 6 10 meters, it is not high. But looking up, a mountain ridge rises slightly from the bottom of the valley, grows taller and bigger, winds straight up, and finally grows into a high mountain, and then comes to an abrupt end. Under the high mountain, another ridge hovered slightly, gradually became bright and strong, was surrounded by rising veins, and finally grew into a huge hill and came to an abrupt end. The rising pulse is called swing, the gas of the earth's rotation is called excitement, and the two mountains embrace and rotate, which has the potential to drive the yin and yang of heaven and earth.
Also, when we climbed the stairs, we saw a longevity ladder extending in the middle, with trees on both sides, pruning bamboo and dripping green. The left is yin and the right is yang, which makes people feel that "all eyes are beautiful and interesting".
Besides, standing on the top of the mountain, you will see the Minjiang River and Fuhe River winding here, with Emei Mountain in the south and Qingcheng Mountain in the north, forming a three-mountain pattern of "Peng Zu is the best in the world, Qingcheng is the best in the world, and Emei is the best in the world". Where else can you find this natural three-dimensional Taiji landform?
Hide the wind and gather the gas, and the abundance is the treasure. Old man Peng Zu has a good eye.
Tai Chi, an important source of China culture, how many secrets do you have to wait for future generations to discover?
In Peng Zu, the most common word is "longevity". There are single-word longevity, double-word longevity, hundred-word longevity and thousand-word longevity; There are Oracle Bone Inscriptions, Jinwen, Dazhuan, Xiaozhuan, official script, regular script, running script and cursive script; There are countless couplets, aphorisms, famous sayings and anecdotes of celebrities. Of course, all this is inseparable from the central figure-Peng Zu.
People respect Peng Zu. Do they just expect to live a long life?
Actually, not necessarily.
Everyone knows that it is impossible to say that Peng Zu lived 800 years. Among them, some places at that time were dominated by bimonthly chronology, but more reflected people's yearning for a healthy life, which was the earliest pursuit of the idea that "human life is not in the sky" put forward by Taoist culture later.
For this, we only need to browse the essence of Peng Zu culture-the way of keeping in good health and the art of keeping in good health, which will enlighten us.
Peng Zu's way of keeping in good health is the way of yin and yang: emphasizing the combination of yin and yang of heaven and earth, not losing the sum of the four seasons, and conforming to the laws of nature. The second is the way of keeping in good health: emphasizing the quantity of keeping in good health, combining essence and qi, nourishing yin and strengthening yang. The third way is self-cultivation: emphasizing inaction, calmness, contentment and regular life.
Peng Zu's health preserving techniques mainly include sexual intercourse, induction and dietotherapy. Based on this, the unique viewpoint that "dietotherapy is not as good as gas therapy, gas therapy is not as good as human therapy, and it is true to treat talents with people" is put forward.
So, what is sex? Because the relevant exhibition hall is not open, it is quite meaningless to look in from the outside. So we can only know a thing or two from a poem by later generations. That is, "heaven and earth are full of yin and yang, and Tai Chi two instruments are Na Gankun. Health care in the room is in line with its path and is the source of ancient and modern times. " Although it still sounds foggy, Ge Hong, a Taoist theorist in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, said that "the stagnation of Yin and Yang hurts people" is still very enlightening.
There is also a poem explaining "Introduction": "Natural magnetic field helps qi, which helps to get rid of the old and benefit the new". In this regard, Zhuangzi commented: "Bragging, breathing, spitting out the old and absorbing the new, the path of the bear, the delay of the bird, only for longevity. The skill of this guide, the person who raises the body, is liked by the examiner Peng Zushou. " This may be the earliest origin of this idiom, and only these four words will make us pay tribute to this "introduction".
As for "the art of dietotherapy", it is much easier to understand, and there is a poem to prove it: "Food and medicine have the same origin and five flavors, and everything should be preserved in time." This statement is absolutely true, even in Qu Yuan's Songs of the South? Tian Wen sighed, "What does Peng Keng care about and how long did he live?" It seems that the old man Peng Zu is still a veritable granddaddy of the catering industry.
Looking back on all this, what can touch our hearts the most? Obviously, how to live better and healthier. The meaning of life lies in the process, the harmony with heaven and earth, the harmony of yin and yang, the harmony of breath and the harmony inside and outside.
Peng Zu was a great philosopher.
The central corridor of Peng Zu Scenic Area consists of nine bends, ninety-nine platforms and 999 steps. In China culture, "Nine" is respected, and "Nine Nine" symbolizes eternal significance. "999" is the message left by Peng Zu when he died: "May everyone in the world be kind-oriented and live a long life in 999."
Whether Peng Zu's news has a real source or not, the idea of "taking goodness as the foundation" conveyed by him is very important. Hundreds of years later, Confucius put forward the benevolent policy thought of "great virtue" ... which must lead to long life ",which cannot but say that they are in the same strain.
Benevolent people live a long life, which should be our greatest gain when we come to Peng Zu.
Peng Zu studied under Yin Shouzi. After learning the truth, he lived in seclusion in Wuyishan and came to Shu in his later years. I started living in Pengshan Xianger Mountain, and later moved to my present place. At that time, people had forgotten the name of the mountain, and today it was named after his arrival. This name has been around for thousands of years, which shows his position in people's minds.
Why is Peng Zu so loved by people of all ages? Because of his kindness.
China people especially admire the saying that "goodness is like water" because "water conservancy does not dispute everything". Peng Zu is such a person. Although he comes from a famous family, he belongs to the bottom of society, to the people and to the lives of thousands of families. It is because of this feeling that he can constantly explore and study the social environment and natural environment, as well as food, clothing, housing, sports, medicine and so on. So as to sum up and adjust a set of self-contained longevity theory and technology. what is the purpose? It is traveling all over the world, widely teaching the way of health and longevity, and greatly benefiting the people.
Curing the world by hanging pots is the foundation of China's medicine, of which Peng Zu played an important role.
When it comes to Peng Zu's goodness, we can't help mentioning San 'e, the third daughter of Peng Zu. She has been with her father, studying medicine and collecting medicine. She is Peng Zu's right-hand man.
It is said that there was a serious plague in Pengshan before. It was Peng Zu and San 'e who collected herbs and made an alchemy day and night, walking around the streets and saving lives, which soon eliminated the disaster. Since then, in order to thank their father and daughter, local people and people around them will go to Pengzu Mountain to worship them every year on the third day of the third lunar month, that is, San 'e's birthday. Until now, this custom is still followed.
March 3rd has become the most lively and grand mountain tour in Pengshan every year.
Kindness should not be forgotten, nor will it be forgotten. This is a warm current that rises slowly in our hearts on the way down the mountain.
Just like the "flying bridge" not far away, just like another name of this mountain-"fairy mountain", just like the towering statue of Peng Zu, they not only shine under the blue sky and white clouds. Moreover, it will always shine in people's hearts …
