These four sentences combine Zen? Huineng+Shen Xiu
The beautiful Buddha is: the body is a bodhi tree, and the heart is a mirror. Wipe frequently, and don't create dust.
Huineng's Buddhist saying is: Bodhi has no trees, and the mirror is not a stage. There is nothing, so there is no dust.
Huineng is self-sufficient. She always looks in the mirror.
Therefore, Yangming's theory of mind combines the emptiness of Buddhism with the enterprising spirit of Confucianism (applying the world, striving for self-improvement, and taking the world as its own responsibility)
Chapter 1: There is no kind and disgusting body.
According to the contents of the book, only one or two ideas are recorded.
Is Yangming's Mind Theory Idealism?
At first, Yangming's theory of mind was passed down from mouth to mouth, just like Zen, which became a Buddha at first sight without making a statement.
1. Q: Why do universities say that kindness should be thick and thin?
A: Our heads are very important. We have to give up one side, and we have to leave our hands and feet behind. If we insist on the unity of all things, regardless of priorities, relatives and passers-by will starve to death, who will be saved first? Natural relatives, so natural, so conscience.
Similarities and differences between here and Buddhism:
Buddhists have a story of feeding tigers and eagles with their bodies, aiming at explaining the great sorrow of the same body.
There is a cloud in the Diamond Sutra: there is no me, no me, no life, no sentient beings. All phases are illusory, so all phases are equal and there is no difference.
Confucianism is humble, friendly and orderly.
Buddhists share great sorrow and all beings are equal.
2. Does the vegetation have a conscience?
Man is the measure of all things, and this measure is conscience, so man's conscience is the conscience of vegetation, and everything in heaven and earth is integrated with man.
Contemporary environmentalists: the earth is our home, destroying our own home. (The surface consciousness awakens, but the deep conscience is not enough)
3. Similarities and differences between Wang Yangming and Zhu's understanding of things.
Wang Yangming solves problems internally.
? The meaning of the grid is right, things? It's a thing, it's an idea.
Where to? Realize, you know? Intuition/innate knowledge
In the affairs, the mind is constantly righting and constantly reflecting, and finally a self-sufficient conscience is realized.
Zhu solved the problem from the outside.
Things? Everything outside
Ge? Looking for exploration
Zhi Zhi? Find the knowledge truth contained in yourself.
For example, look at a bamboo.
Zhu saw that bamboo was blue, hollow and strong. Function? You can make cups, buildings and fences.
Bamboo root system is developed and tough? We learn the spirit of perseverance.
Wang Yangming: Bamboo symbolizes modesty, perseverance and diligence.
I am integrated with bamboo, my heart is self-sufficient, my heart is the universe, my heart is the bamboo heart, and I naturally have all the beautiful qualities of bamboo. How to make my heart humble, how to make my heart tough,
Where is Zhu? See the law of external things, and then raise its principle and function to the spiritual level. Emphasis on summing up experience, from cause and effect, the most basic experience summary rises to the law of things.
Kind of like empiricism.
From the acquisition of a little knowledge, I finally found the internal law.
Wang Yangming? Conscience is there, and the result is there. My conscience knows everything, so I am constantly improving, constantly getting rid of my own evil and self-interest, and finally returning to that conscience. From cause to effect.
Everyone who practices has Buddha nature, and everyone can become a Buddha.
Hua Yan Jing said: Tathagata wisdom is everywhere. Why? Without the wisdom of the Tathagata, there would be no sentient beings, but he reversed his persistence with delusion and could not prove it; If you leave your delusion, if you are wise, natural and unimpeded, you will succeed.
4. Reflections on the Dialogue between Wang Yangming and Xu Ai
Filial piety and faithfulness require reading and learning from experts.
Yang Ming said that everything is in your heart, a bright heart and a sincere heart are enough.
Xu's love is reasonable, and his heart is not only bright. Now it seems that airplanes and cannons still need to be learned. In the spiritual field, in the field of ethics, in the field of science and technology, we should combine a bright conscience with learning technology.
China lags behind the West because China attaches importance to morality and ignores technology.
4. Good and evil are the same thing.
Then the good and evil here are the same as those in Buddhism, empty color, empty existence, vacuum second existence, and empty is color.
There is nothing wrong with conscience, and there is indeed right and wrong in the sense. Evil appears in this link.
Evil is the result of budding selfish desires in response to things.
It means that there is no good or evil, and then there is evil because of selfish desires.
Behind the leisure, in fact, it is the worry of suffering and loss, the confusion of fame and fortune.
Keep a good thought in your heart, and don't leave any thoughts in your heart, such as not getting a little dust in your eyes. You can't have any good ideas. A heart without kindness and nausea is the most natural state.
The story of weeding the garden! ! Xue Kan and Yangming, gold, feces.
Why do we live so tired, oppose foreign things, and use our own standards to measure, there is a sense of right and wrong.
It's not deliberate, or likes and dislikes depend on the sky, and there's no other meaning.
Pull up the grass? Now the grass hinders the growth of flowers, so you have to pull it out (it's okay to pull it out without doing evil, just follow your conscience). If you can't pull it out today, pull it out tomorrow. If you think you haven't finished tonight, you won't sleep well. This is private.
The rain won't bother you, it is regular. Defamation naturally fades, and you don't bother.
Only if we don't measure foreign things according to our own self-interest, will we not be restricted and dominated by foreign things, and we can control ourselves and put our hearts right.
Chapter II Good deeds and evil deeds
outlook on life
Zhang zai? Heart of heaven and earth ...
Liu xiu? Be a big official and marry a beautiful wife.
Huan Wen in the Eastern Han Dynasty? Not forever, but forever.
1. Everyone can be Yao Shun.
Confucius is smarter than a fool (most people are unequal). Confucian hierarchy of monarch and minister.
Yangming, fools don't move and refuse to move, which leads to conscience, and is also a saint. (Buddhism says that all beings are equal)
Communication psychology? Treat yourself like a fool when you meet one.
Independent people have self-esteem.
The starting point of psychology is independent consciousness and independent spirit. (Don't treat Confucius' right and wrong as right and wrong)
Think of Chen Yinke's educational goal: independent spirit and free thought. Mr. Yang Ming has this temperament in his mind.
Zhu and Yangming: Zhu changed the new people, and Yangming used the people.
The way of university is to be moral, to be close to the people and to stop at perfection.
Why?
Zhu believes that Xinmin is born incomplete because of its animality. It needs to constantly learn from things, constantly innovate itself, demand itself according to the standards of saints, constantly control itself, forcibly enter the set track, and finally reach the realm of saints and a perfect life. (heavy management)
Yangming is close to the people: the lover gives him freedom, thinks physically, does not force his own will, the will of others, leads to conscience and loves the world.
Madman: An idealist bent on becoming a saint.
When the conscience encounters injustice, we should dare to fight, and dare to fight is to fight for ourselves. Kill yourself.
Buddhism teaches people to endure humiliation, while Yangming teaches people to fight.
3. Inner Sage and Outer King
The bloody smell of politics has been strongly distorting Confucian benevolence and morality. The inner saint and the outer king are originally divided.
Here in Yangming, the standards of conscience and natural morality, according to which things can be done, can be saints inside and kings outside. Being a foreign king is not a feat, but a manifestation of conscience.
Lust, lust and wealth are always rejected by Confucianism, and it is also in line with heaven that conscience works hard in it without being deceived.
4. Not excessive, not lasting
Lu Cheng was very sad to hear that his son was dying. Yang Ming said it was a good time? Cultivate your heart! ! Practice your brain.
Neutralization? Neutralization of seven emotions, temperament and sex? Benevolence, courtesy, wisdom, faith and affection? The seven emotions of human beings (Zhu wants to eliminate the seven emotions, only sex is natural).
Yangming? Sex and emotion are natural laws, and seven emotions are inherent in conscience. The seven emotions should be revealed naturally, and neutralization is the principle of nature. Not deliberate, not persistent, not excessive, not rebellious, not innovative
Like what? Li Shimin released prisoners and went home for the Spring Festival. Come back sincerely and forgive.
Li Shimin whitewashes the prisoner's self-interest. Prisoners seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and are selfish. A performance.
If so, let a batch come back. What is the law?
Confucius talked with several disciples about their ambitions.
Ran Qiu and Gong Xichi all want to catch the wave line of life and set a point on it.
Ceng Wei? Go with the flow and do what you want. (a device that flows everywhere)
Adapt to local conditions and change at any time.
5. Infected by good habits and bad habits
The heart loses its noumenon, and the conscience is covered, so it can't work normally.
Everyone has many habits because of his genes and environmental influence. Politeness, hypocrisy. The cultivation of the day after tomorrow is to dissolve the habit.
The more some people see and hear, the heavier their conscience may be! !
Chapter three: the value of Yangming's theory of mind.
Values? For conscience.
1. Conscience is the intuition of morality and wisdom.
Mencius conscience? Compassion, shame and evil, and innate moral strength are only part of "benevolence"
Yangming conscience? Ontology, the only pillar on which people live, is the only measure of being a man.
Right and wrong belong to wisdom, good and evil belong to morality, and people can distinguish right and wrong from good and evil, which is conscience.
Conscience is the intuitive power of human innate morality and wisdom, and it is the moral power and wisdom of intuition. Conscience is omnipotent, the key needs to be achieved, and light is needed.
If my conscience is important to things, then everything will be reasonable.
Conscience is like Archimedes' fulcrum, which can move the earth. Everyone has this fulcrum! ! ! !
Not aware of conscience: ① lazy? Customs cover up, such as words and deeds, go its own way. 2 no ability to cause? Zhu was overshadowed by the "emperor's desire". Can't do it.
2. Unity of knowing and doing is a magic weapon to improve efficiency.
There is no pause and buffer between seeing beauty and liking beauty. This is an instinct and a conditioned reflex. Just like water flowing downwards, water knows that flowing downwards is "knowing" and flowing downwards is "doing". When a person is struck by lightning, he will fall to the ground immediately. No one will think after being struck by lightning, "shall I fall to the ground or turn around?" This is the unity of knowledge and action.
The knowledge of knowing and doing is not knowledge, but conscience. A person with a bright conscience will make a judgment of right and wrong and good and evil before taking action when facing any situation or being stimulated by the outside world.
If you have bad ideas, you must get rid of them. You need to get rid of them completely.
One thought will do, one thought will be conscience, good thoughts will be maintained, and evil thoughts will be eliminated.
The world is full of clothes and animals, with different psychology and different words and deeds!
Know what you know in your heart, don't bully your heart.
In the face of anything, get the right answer as quickly as lightning and do it without hesitation. ? Unity of knowledge and action.
3. Wang Yangming's Universal Value
Everyone can decide his position in society according to the size of his conscience.
Everyone's value is precious. Everything is one, everything is a part of me. Therefore, the work done by others is actually done by me, and others have made contributions. Instead of being jealous, I will be very excited.
The place of inner security is conscience. Feel at ease.
Anything you do, as long as you feel at ease, means that it is within the scope of conscience.
If you conform to the principles of the universe, you will feel at ease. If you don't conform to the principles of the universe, you will feel uneasy. When you are safe and uneasy, it is called "knowing".
Chapter four? Eliminating evil for good is a personality problem —— Yangming's methodology of psychology
Method? It is not only a theory of doing good and eliminating evil, but also a tool for us to learn psychology. It is the unity of knowing and doing, and it is both conscience and conscience.
1. Four Rules: Four Commandments of Yangming's Mind.
Determined, diligent, reformed, and responsible for goodness.
Make up your mind? /kloc-When he was 0/2 years old, Yang Ming asked the teacher: What was the first thing? The teacher said to be a big official, and Yang Ming said to be a saint. What is the ultimate goal of life? )
An uncertain ambition is like a ship without a rudder, a horse without a ring, drifting with the tide and running away at will, even ghosts don't know where you can go in the end! !
Yangming is determined to become a saint and often does good deeds. Remembering this principle is a determination and a desire for conscience.
As long as you can keep justice to your desires, have a bright conscience, and walk the world with this bright conscience, nothing is impossible.
After making up your mind, your eyes and ears will only have your own ambitions, and your heart will always focus on your own ambitions. Listen to me and make every sentence effective. It takes a stick, a scar, a slap and a palm of blood.
Anyone who doesn't study hard enough must have deep ambitions! ! ! There are many brain malignant tumors caused by habits, which need to be corrected before they can be changed.
Change two realms: putting down the butcher's knife to become a Buddha (high talent) and being forced to put down the butcher's knife to become a Buddha (abstinence). The process of realizing that conscience is blinded by external forces.
After the reform, it is "the responsibility to be good", determination and diligence. Reform is directed at oneself, and the responsibility for doing good is directed at others. Anyone who attacks my fault is my teacher and is willing to accept my inner gratitude.
If you see the good, you will be moved. If you change, it will be like planting trees, growing day and night and flourishing branches.
2, sit-in: self-management when you are alone!
Two kinds of philosophers:
1 Keep running? Consult+spread, such as Plato.
2 Sit down, heart? Wang Yangming
A, rest thinking (let your heart into silence) naturally into silence? Staying here is meditation.
B, assess the situation, resolutely, and never tolerate. Restrain selfish desires and promote justice.
Two main points of meditation: sincerity and independence
Sincerity? Mindfulness-the sincerity of the world can establish the foundation of the world.
Sincerity means detecting insincerity, overcoming insincerity and overcoming selfish desires.
Caution is caution, even if a person pays attention to his own behavior, is strict with himself and waits for death. Yangming, this is self-management.
(1) What are my selfish desires?
By what means should I overcome these selfish desires?
(3) Self-confidence, believing that you can overcome selfish desires.
Perseverance, strong self-control willpower
5] Keep a good attitude and don't overcome it for the sake of overcoming it (don't be too sober).
Knowledge, various means and the great power of conscience can get rid of selfish desires.
Once the goods are inspected? Practice test
Reflection? The basis of selfish desires, reflection in place will not make the same mistake.
Determination (focus on this)? Prudent and independent (self-management)? Italian cities (Italian urban areas)? Unity of knowledge and action (understanding the essence of unity of knowledge and action)? Intuition/innate knowledge
3. The practice is the practice of mind.
Lu cheng? Sit still, strong inside, forced when something happens.
Yangming? Be honed in things
Practical training is the top methodology of Yangming's psychology! !
Practice things, practice what? There is nothing outside the heart, nothing outside the heart, and the mood is just right. This is "harmony".
Cultivating mind in personnel, emotion is human feelings, wealth, poverty, life and death are major events, and personnel is spiritual cultivation.
chapter five
This heart is bright, and the sage inside is the king outside.
1. Work is practice
The combination of mind and practice is the best destination.
In the eyes of mortals, work is work and practice is practice, not practice for the sake of practice. Work is practice.
Two pavilions in Ming dynasty? Jingshan Pavilion (Honor List) Shen Ming Pavilion (Blacklist)
Put me down.
Greed, ignorance and suspicion
3. Blame others for your own business
Review. Introspection and supervision
4. The heart does not move, but moves randomly.
When I say there is nothing outside my heart, I mean there is nothing in the world, and much ado about nothing. Don't be mediocre. You didn't say others were not mediocre people. Take care of your own heart and mouth, how can you take care of others' hearts and mouths?
We are not confident, so we are tempted. An empty bowl needs foreign filling, and others' evaluation is filling.
What concerns did you have before it happened? What are you afraid of when things happen?
5. Thinking and learning regimen
Ears, nose, eyes, mouth, limbs? Abstinence (neutralization) and health maintenance
6. The courage to learn by heart
Knowing right and wrong, good and evil, shame is conscience, close to courage. Correct and correct is the real courage and conscience.
7. The lever principle of the unity of knowing and doing: inciting everything in the world.
Lever fulcrum: conscience
Su Qin yi cheung caught a glimpse of the wonderful use of conscience? Take advantage of "bets"
Parents? Show filial piety
The king? loyal
Comrade? sincere
Enemy? merits and demerits
Find that fulcrum! ! The most suitable fulcrum (neutralization)
8. So horrible, conscience is unknown
Without a clear conscience, our "will" will be afraid.
Overcome fear: sit still, practice (afraid of looking for ghosts in the dark), and do good deeds? inform with
9. Psychology and Emotional Control
Active behavior? Be brave, be anti-customer, and control the situation.
Control your emotions, control your emotions, and control everything you face.
10. Life planning can only be "conscientious"
The fate is uncertain? follow one's gut feelings
1 1. Sincerity in solving the prisoner's dilemma
Your sincerity will certainly win the sincerity of others.
