"People are different now. They take wine as their pulp, run amok and get drunk, trying to exhaust their essence and dissipate their truth. They are not satisfied, they are eager for happiness from time to time, and their lives are unrestrained, so they will decline in half a century. "
Let's look at this paragraph: the point here is not to indulge. If people indulge without restraint, the essence of the human body will be exhausted. We know that once the essence is exhausted, the real Yuan Qi will dissipate. In a person's life, the most important link in operation is that essence can be angry and qi can become god, which is what we usually call essence. When people have the spirit, the popular ying qi and Wei qi are sufficient and firm. Ying qi provides sufficient support for the five internal organs, while Wei qi provides strong protection for the human body. Think about it, can this quality of life be low? Therefore, people who are good at keeping in good health must know how to cherish their own essence. When the essence is full, the spirit will be strong, the spirit will be comprehensive, the body will be strong, the body will be strong, the natural diseases will be less, the spirit will be strong, and the old age will be strong. These are all because of the essence.
Let's take a look at Zhang Zhicong's interpretation of the relevant content in this passage. He said: wine can hurt the spleen (this statement should not be known to most people), and temper injury can not play its role in publicizing the taste of five grains, so the qi of life is injured. If you act rashly, you will hurt your own god, and if you are drunk, you will hurt your own essence. Nowadays, people don't know how to keep in good health, indulge their hobbies and desires and hurt their vigor. The gods are hidden in your heart. If you have to be very happy from the heart, you will lose the protection of the gods. If you are happy, your anger will slow down. If you do the opposite, you will hurt your spirit. An unrestrained life consumes a person's essence. Now people just want to be happy but can't accumulate essence, so they will age at 50.
Let's look at Bing Wang's explanation of this passage. He said: people are not like this now. They are addicted to alcohol and use it as a drink, but they are used to their crazy behavior, which leads to the loss of credit. I am so obsessed with beauty that I often have sex after getting drunk. Then the result of this desire is the consumption of essence, and this consumption will make the yuan Qi Zhen of human body disappear. Therefore, Bing Wang emphasized that liking beauty is called desire, and neglecting desire is consumption. If the desire is not restrained, the essence will be exhausted and the consumption will be insufficient, then the Yuan Zhen Qi will be lost. Bing Wang also cited an example: A sage knows how to protect the essence from being dissipated easily, then the essence will be sufficient, the essence will be full of natural bone marrow, and the bone marrow will be strong. If people don't know how to be full, they will often indulge in lust from time to time to speed up their hearts and let them use their desires quickly. In addition, people start aging at the age of 50.
Let's look at Sen Lizhi's interpretation of "exhausting its essence with desire and dispersing its truth with desire". He said: If people indulge in lust without restraint, their semen will run out. Exhaustion of semen is called consumption. If it is consumed, the real Yuan Qi will disappear by itself. Huang Shigong's Su Shu records: "Sorrow is more than essence": Tao is called one, and purity is called essence. Fine hair is called God. No potential, no life, no death, no first, no later, no yin, no yang, no movement; If you give up form, you will become smart, philosophical, intelligent and knowledgeable. All flesh and blood are worthy. If you are using it, you will gather and not disperse; If you use it badly, you will disperse but not gather. If the eyes are obscene, the essence is scattered in color; Ear obscenity in sound, essence in sound; If the mouth is obscene, it will be refined and scattered; If the nose smells obscene, the essence will spread out and smell. It's gone. It can last a long time. Simple translation: what is born in the avenue is one, and what is pure but not miscellaneous is essence. What emanates from the essence is God. This essence is latent in nothing, that is, there is no life, no death, no first and then no yin, no yang and no movement; When the essence enters the body, it becomes Ming, Zhe, Wisdom and Knowledge. All living beings are born from this essence. If used correctly, it will be concentrated and will not be dispersed; If evil is used, it will disperse but not gather. If the eyes are confused by beauty, the essence will be lost because of beauty; When the ear is confused by sound, it loses its essence because of sound; If the mouth is confused by taste, the essence will be lost because of taste; When the nose is confused by the smell, the essence is lost because of the smell. If a person is confused by many things, this essence will be continuously lost, and that person's life will not last long.
Let's take a look at Gao Sezong's interpretation of this paragraph. He said: people nowadays don't know how to keep in good health, but they have killed their own lives. Wine can be promiscuous. If you drink wine as pulp, your mind will not act according to heaven, but become accustomed to it. If wine is pulp, then the body will not obey the command of the heart, but have sex after drunkenness, leading to exhaustion of semen. It is common to act rashly, so you can dissipate the people's yuan Zhen. Exhausted to dissipate the truth, I don't know how to maintain my body. I don't know how to control God at any time to maintain my heart. I just want to be happy in my heart, but my body is contrary to the happiness of health preservation, which leads to the lack of discipline in my daily life and the inability to be in harmony with God. So, at 50, I am old.
