Tracing back to the source, things will get better and better from small to large. That's right. This is connected with "nothing" and is still collected. Crossing the river is not overloaded or wasted.
What does it mean to go underground? Heaven. Is there anything better than this?
Having a mother and a father means that mother is the oldest in the family, right? I think so. You don't have to ask.

Reading Thai hexagrams will inevitably lead to a question: is the ancient people's human feelings the same as today's? If not, what can we learn from Yi? For example, on the issue of family status, Thai hexagrams tell us that we should respect our mothers at home so that the family will be peaceful; However, in the previous textbooks, it was clearly told us that in China's long feudal society, women's status was low. On the eve of liberation, in many provinces, mothers were not allowed to eat at the same table as their husbands and sons when cooking. At that time, men were superior to women, and there were many cases of domestic violence and abandonment of mothers. Where can I show respect for my mother?
When you have doubts and solve them, you can make progress in your study. Reading, observing people, feeling, reflecting and reconstructing are what we often say. This is a necessary stage for easy learning, and it is also an important moment for easy learning to go deeper. Swallowing dates, specious, self-righteous and self-deceiving are the most common mistakes we make when reading. And this is precisely the "honesty and faith" repeatedly emphasized in the "University" left by the sage.
In order to answer the doubts brought by Thai hexagrams, we might as well ask a few more questions.
1, what is a mother?
2. Are all mothers worthy of respect?
3. Why does Thai Gua emphasize respect for mother?
4. In the age when men are superior to women, isn't it self-deception to respect mothers?
Before answering these questions, it is still necessary to emphasize that "easy is easy, easy is like". Don't make a long speech, you can make it clear in one sentence, not necessarily in two sentences. Anything that lasts for a long time or can't be explained clearly shows that the temperature of learning Yi is not enough.
1, Kun is a mother's image, not only kind and kind, but also reasonable, tenacious and honest, tolerant and intelligent. In modern Chinese vocabulary, Kun represents the idealized image of mother. In the world of images, there are not only abstractions of motherhood, but also concrete cases that embody motherhood. If I have to use one word to sum up my mother's image, it is "love".
2. Assholes also have the right to have children. Why do you respect assholes? The reason why the traditional "filial piety" culture once went into a dead end, was unsustainable, and became a hypocritical moral preaching, because it confused the image of parents with specific individual entities. To paraphrase a sentence from Niu ren's cross talk: If you want to be a father in the future, you have to be admitted, otherwise you are not qualified to be a father. Crosstalk is exaggerated, but the truth is right. "We should be reasonable and empathetic." Don't cheat your feelings and do things against your will. Jun Jun, minister, father, son. Only when parents are alone can their children know who to learn from. Parents are ghosts, and children are always required to be individuals. Isn't that a trick?
There is an explanation here: the hexagram of Thai hexagram says that respecting mother is a family matter. It is fate that people get together, and it is a great fate to be together for a lifetime. It is a miracle to raise offspring and become a real family, which was originally a microcosm of the whole mankind. Yi thinks that it is ok to regard human beings, countries, nationalities and units as a family, but the image of "mother" is complicated. Therefore, let's take ordinary families as an example. There are essential differences between the external contradictions and internal contradictions of the family. The way to solve external contradictions is "health" and the way to solve internal contradictions is "shun". In the external struggle, we must rely on self-improvement to gain the right to exist and the space for development; But in the family, only "love" can unite everyone. And the mother is the one who can bring her family back. "Mom is here and home is there." Of course, it should be emphasized that "mother" is an image. If a man has the image of "mother", he is not a mother.
Readers who like to watch East Asian costume films may have the impression that the emperor must be respectful in front of the queen mother, because the son of heaven is an example for all the people, and it is a national policy to govern the country with filial piety. I ching expressed my reverence for my mother through the word "Tai". "Men are superior to women" is an institutional and cultural phenomenon under specific historical conditions. The "filial piety" culture emphasized by Chinese civilization can be regarded as the inheritance of "Tai" thought under the background of "men are superior to women". In fact, it is easy to convey a sincere feeling, but in the real society, behind the production relations and superstructure, productivity and economic foundation still play a decisive role. To put it more bluntly, at home, filial piety is to respect the mother's natural feelings, while the system design that men are superior to women comes from the objective needs of the ruling class.
