Simplified characters existed in ancient times, but why didn't the ancients use them?

Excerpt from Disciples' Rules, large-scale public welfare class (16) Teacher Pang: Let's talk about "believing for the second time", "being the first filial brother" and saying that "being the first" is the most important thing, just like my master once said to me, "Why did you choose to inherit these things instead of others? You are not the best, your study, hard work and ability are not the best, but why? I have always been polite because I have known the rules since I was a child. After the most important thing is said, the second is the secondary thing. Why do you say "secondary life"? How did the word "secondary life" come from? When we talk about "disciples", we talk about some things. China people used to have a word called "second order". What is second order? The leaves and buds of all plants are called the second place, just like the leaves of plants, one left and one right, one up and one down. This is the origin of the ladder. The earliest ladder was nailed to both sides of a piece of wood, and later it developed into two pieces of wood, with the middle nail called the second place up and down and the first place called the left and right. The word "time" itself is the next meaning, so if you look at its radical, it belongs to two water points. Let's tell you that many two-point capital cities are misused, including "time". What is the practical significance of the two water outlet points? Like two people in the seal script. This symbol stands for cold, so "cold" and "cold" are two points. The word "cold" replaces the meaning of cold, and the double points in seal script are pronounced "ice". The word "minus" we see now is two points, but it was actually three points in ancient times. Many people mean "subtract", but in fact all the meanings are omitted, and then Chinese civilization gradually dies out. At present, most people know what it is but don't know why, so the degree of cultural research determines the height of our national culture, which is actually not high. China sings that "the Chinese nation has reached the most dangerous moment", but now, although we are rich, the traditional culture has reached the most dangerous time in society and internationally. Why? Literally, it broke the cultural roots, which is a very urgent and terrible thing. When we talk about the rules of discipleship, why should we emphasize these words? I just hope that everyone will realize its importance in their bones. Even the best ideas need to be recorded and passed on, and words will bear this responsibility. If the words are deleted, the thoughts are also deleted, which is not only an extreme point, but also a crack in the whole ideological system and a great harm! I'm not alarmist. I use it now because I don't mean it at all. For example, I made it very clear when I said the word "holy" last time, so the divinity of Chinese characters will take you to another realm, which is very dangerous. The word "time" replaces the left and right, not cold, and the word "owe" on the right represents unimportant meaning. "Sincerely believe", as we often say, is a pictophonetic word. The ancients in China wore many jades. We often hear the most traditional and well-known ancient allusion called "Hongmen Banquet". Then, between banquets, Fan Zeng asked Xiang Yu to kill Liu Bang, but Xiang Yu was honest and felt that he could not kill his opponent by means of villains at the banquet. So at the hongmen banquet, father Fan Zeng took off a piece of jade he was wearing. We often talk about doing things with determination and perseverance. The jade he lifted was called "Gui". Fan Zeng waved his knight at Xiang Yu three times, urging Xiang Yu to make up his mind to kill Liu Bang at the Hongmen banquet. But Xiang Yu turned a blind eye to the toast in his sleeve, and finally Liu Bang ran away. Why are you talking about these things? Today, many of us also wear jade. Now I ask you: Why are you wearing these things? The sage said that "a gentleman never leaves his body for no reason", that is, a gentleman never leaves his body for no special reason, so he should always wear jade. Do you know why? Today, as a descendant of the dragon and a batch of cultural heritage, we still inherit this habit. Why can't you say why? Now everyone is talking about how much their jade is and where is the culture? From ancient books, we can see that aristocratic women with social status wore jingles before they appeared. It tells you the density of jade. I'm wearing one now, and I used to wear a string, so I'm full of fairy tales when I walk. Now that women come out and strut, there is a legacy of Wang Xifeng. I haven't seen her, so I heard her voice first. Is there such a young lady? In fact, the ancients were jade, and people with virtue were qualified to wear jade, and this jade refers to jade in a narrow sense, that is, Hetian jade produced in Kunlun Mountain now, rather than jade worn in the middle and late Qing Dynasty. It's foreign culture, not China traditional culture. When the ancients brought jade, there were many names on it. The round jade that can be worn on the body is called "yellow", and the big round jade that can't be worn is called "wall". "Yellow" represents social identity and the meaning of caring for the world. Because the ancients thought that the sky was round and the sky was round, it was called "yellow" like Hehe, representing heaven and earth. The oblique herringbone jade is called "Heng", which has a great and far-reaching influence on the word "Heng". Now we say that we should have perseverance and determination in doing things, and jade can represent it. "Heng" is like a roof, which means people should have perseverance, and "Jun" means people should have determination. Why talk about jade? "Gold" is jade that is not worn on the body, because gold is rough jade and has not been carved. Why is it called Kim? That is, we can't judge what is inside the jade, and we can't cut it easily, so it's called gold. Qu Yuan's "Nine Songs" mentioned that a gentleman wore plaid clothes and had a rough jade in his arms. The most simple, unpretentious, sacred and noble character has been described by Huai Jin, so the name of the real master "nan huaijin" comes from this, that is, being a Gebu and being a civilian. The ancients said that "the mouth is the door to good or bad." If you can't say it well, it will lead to great disaster, even fatal disaster. Hello, you can rule the world and make others feel at ease. When Confucius was in troubled times, he went to worship at the Zhougong Temple in Luoyang. He found a sulfur gold man standing on the edge of the pavilion outside the main hall, with three locks locked on his mouth. As soon as he saw it, he said to the students, "Do you see it? The ancients used this method to educate the world, give advice to politicians and give guidance to the people. " What do you mean? Be careful what you say and do. That's how the idiom "shut up" came from. I'm afraid I can't lock it, because people talk too fast. Sometimes if you want people to know something, you should find someone who speaks too fast. I think it's much faster than the internet. There is a couplet in the hexagrams of the Book of Changes, which represents the phase of the mouth and tongue, and the phase of the tongue has a huge feature, which is cracking. Therefore, when this hexagram is drawn, no matter how perfect and successful it is, it is often a failure, a crack and a damage. Therefore, when the ancients returned to the palace, they classified loss, crack and loss as a palace. There is an old saying: two skins on a person's mouth, the more spread, the more magical. Hearsay and so on abound, especially at present, during the 20 years from 1983 to 2004, the geomantic Universiade was about the divination of the palace, which was called the Seven Lucky Lucks. Therefore, this era is the most chaotic and confusing on earth, and it is a very subversive and destructive 20 years, especially traditional culture. You should know that the so-called heaven is not something we can change or stop, so we must attach great importance to it and be careful. Many people say that the history of China is only 5,000 years, but 5,000 years is not what China people say. You must not believe what the barbarians in Europe say, or whoever listens to you will be dead, not dead, but dead in your mind, and your family will be ruined. Don't underestimate yourself. If a person is bad, a family will be greatly affected, and the closer they are, the more unlucky they will be. I said many questions are not alarmist, because I read these things every day, which is my deepest sorrow. Sometimes we will give in to some things, especially those who study Buddhism will say "convenience", those who are enlightened will say "convenience" and you will say "going to the toilet". The point is that you can't control the depth and scale. China people talk about things, including Buddhism and Taoism. Helping others is called "measuring people", which itself means that there are methods and category rules. Therefore, in ancient times, "degree" was law, law and norm. Now we have no ability to master the core things, and you can't have scale. Change a little today, change a little tomorrow, and finally the combination of Chinese and western will be finished. It should be called "ink" If you add more, it's called "ink". Add more, and the essence will be gone. I'm just saying that the Chinese nation only has time at the most dangerous moment. Actually, it's too much ink. I am not against a way, system or civilization, but against a variant of behavior. Why do you have to say this when you say "Jing"? One of the most fundamental reasons is that we are not afraid of all changes. Shang Tang and Zhou Wuwang are changing the world. The problem is that they intend to keep the original and make appropriate changes. Today, they abandon the old and don't use it, which will also affect our hearts. Why don't you respect the elderly now? The reason is that our ideological core has changed. The word "old" is a symbol, which often represents old and useless. Once your mind is eroded by this wrong fallacy, you will bring it to every detail of your life. Why should we be filial to our parents, respect teachers, respect the old and love the young? It's no use shouting slogans now. If the core culture is not excavated, it will be very dangerous in the future. I remember I was scared to see my teacher in primary school. In junior high school, I was hiding; After I went to high school, I got bored and stared at it. After going to college, we developed to an extreme, without teachers, because we studied art and painting at that time, which may be more arrogant than other colleges and universities. When we meet teachers, we are like brothers, because some teachers are younger than the students in our class. I don't know after that, but I have seen it again in recent years. It seems that legislation has been enacted now. It is illegal for teachers to beat and scold children and corporal punishment. I have always supported government behavior, but this behavior needs to be discussed. If children don't get the education they deserve and indulge in development blindly, the Chinese nation will have no future. The ancients said: "If you don't fight for three days, you will go to the house and uncover the tiles." Now it's not as simple as just talking about norms. This is actually a systematic project, which requires the joint efforts of several generations. So why do I spend so much time talking about these things here? A person who has no rules is judged as useless. Has Shang heard of it? Now it is not hurting Zhong Yong, but hurting great unity. Everything in the unified system has appeared, which is very bad for me personally. Why do you say be cautious? There are two suggestions, especially for parents and teachers, not to arbitrarily and shallowly make a curse-like attribute to children and students, or make a destructive judgment, which will cause great blows and injuries to the nation and a family, which is more terrible than any kind of foreign aggression. Therefore, noble people can keep their mouths shut, and the ancients said, "noble people talk less and do more." This is not a random act, but a cautious approach. In class that day, I said "flies are greedy for dogs", which is a state of doing things. In ancient times, it was the most abusive, as we now say, vulgar and philistine. There are two ways to write this idiom. The first way is to use the words "fly" and "dog" together, and then define them deeper. The word "fly" represents a small area and a small force. In class some time ago, I said that Yi is the way of heaven and earth and the principle of personnel. People who learn Yi must have the heart of a saint and the quality of a god, and don't do selfish things. It sounds like a joke, but it's actually the truth. What I said that day was Ceng Gong's Ice Guide. Today I will give you a brief introduction, because your age is particularly suitable for this period, that is, when you reach middle age, your fortune will reach the tip of your nose. Physically speaking, the nose has a nice name, called "Zhongyue", because it has a very close connection with Henan people. It's about a good-looking person, which is called "Heaven is perfect, the terrain is Fiona Fang, and the five mountains face the DPRK". This is the core culture of China. Don't think that it is Mount Tai that "respects the five mountains", but it is really Songshan, as it was in the Tang Dynasty. When Zen was closed, it was Zhongyue Mountain, and there was no such thing as Mount Tai. Later, it was because the Yellow Emperor was a good fairy. Everyone knows that there are three fairy mountains overseas, Penglai, Abbot and Yingzhou, so they all love to go to the seaside to seek immortality. There is definitely no sea in the Central Plains, and everyone wants to make the dynasty permanent. Upper stop, middle stop and lower stop represent three stages: youth, middle age and old age. Now 90% of everyone's wealth has reached the halfway station. These are the core cultures of China. Zeng Guofan was able to turn the tide because he knew people. Although the writing style is not as good as Li Hongzhang's and the martial arts is not as good as Left, why does a scholar lead the tribe to level the world? Because Ceng Gong knows people. Now that you have been studying for many years, you often call yourself a villain. At a high level, you said that "birds of a feather flock together, and people are divided into groups". At a low level, you are a villain. How can you be so stupid that you can't even see anyone!
