? The first of the three Yis, "Lianshan Yi" - the earliest heavenly book for the Chinese nation to understand the world
In ancient times, there were three "Yi". The "Three Character Classic" of Mongolian studies compiled by scholar Wang Yinglin of the Great Song Dynasty preached: "There is Lianshan, there is Guizang, there is Zhouyi, and the three Yis are detailed."
? "Book of Rites" "Chun Guan" records: "The method of "Three Yis" of Dabuzhang, one is called "Lianshan", the second is called "Guizang", and the third is called "Zhouyi". Its sutra hexagrams are all eight, and its other hexagrams are all sixty and four. "
"Lianshan Yi" is the first of the Three Yis and is said to have been written by Fu Xi. In ancient times, our ancestors understood nature, followed nature, gradually understood the sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, clouds and other natural laws, and then quoted them as a guideline for national governance.
? The era of "Lianshan Yi" was around the Xia Dynasty, which was in the late primitive society. Human beings had not yet ended the era of mountain living. Hunting and animal husbandry were the main production and lifestyle. The ancestors respected and admired mountains and forests, and their understanding of nature was still limited to mountains, rivers and trees, so the "Lianshan Yi" appeared. Compared with the "Gui Zang Yi", the graphics are circles, while the "Zhou Yi" covers both square and round shapes, and the "Lianshan Yi" has a circular shape. The shape is square, with Gen as the head symbolizing the mountain. The ancients believed that "the clouds coming out of the mountains are endless."
? "Lianshanyi" *** has the Eight Diagrams of monarch, ministers, people, things, yin, yang, soldiers, and elephants, which are unified by mountains. The sixty-four images are divided into eight palaces, and the sixty-four images are as follows:
Lord Chongshan, Lord Minister and Minister, Lord Minguan, Lord Wulong, Lord Yinhou, Lord Yangshi, Lord Soldier and General, Lord Elephant head;
Fushan minister, minister lord, minister scholar, minister turtle, minister Yin son, minister Yang father, minister soldier, minister Xianggu;
List of mountain people, The people's food, the people's power, the people's goods, the people's wives, the people's husbands, the people's weapons, the people's elephants;
It also includes mountain objects, the king's gold, the officials' wood, the people's soil, and the things Yin water, things Yang fire, things soldiers holding, things Xiang spring;
Qian Shan Yin, Yin Jun soil, Yin ministers wild, Yin people ghosts, Yin objects beasts, Yin Yang music, Yin soldiers demon, Yin Xiang Winter;
Lianshan Yang, Yang Juntian, Yang Chenqian, Yang Minshen, Yang Wuqian, Yang Yin Li, Yang Bingcuo, Yang Xiangxia;
Zangshan Soldiers, military commanders, military ministers and assistants, soldiers and civilians, military materials, military plots, military Yang formations, military elephants in autumn;
Mountain elephants, Xiangjun sun, Xiangchen moon, Xiangmin Stars resemble objects and clouds, resemble cloudy nights, resemble sunny days, and resemble military aura.
Chong refers to the ancient Chong state. Emperor Yao conferred the title of Sun Gun, the fifth generation of Zhuanxu, the father of Dayu, on Chong, so "Lianshan Yi" begins with Chongshanjun.
? The ancient "Three Tombs Book" was the classic book that people of that period revealed the content of "The Three Changes". This is a monograph that explains "Lianshan", "Guizang" and "Zhouyi" by classifying "Shanfen", "Qifen" and "Xingfen". "Shanfen" mainly takes Fuxi's "Lianshanyi" as the interpretation object. The era of "Gui Zang Yi" has reached the Yin and Shang Dynasties, agriculture was the mainstay, and the earth became the object of worship by the ancestors. Therefore, "Gui Zang Yi" begins with Kun. In the Western Zhou Dynasty, social development was diversified, and in order to meet the needs of production and life, people's understanding of the sky and the need to master the laws of nature required continuous exploration of the laws of celestial phenomena. The understanding of the sky was placed in the first place, and the "Qian Kun Yi" was produced. " is the "Book of Changes" that later evolved from King Wen, headed by Qian. I won’t go into details here.
It is said that social existence determines social consciousness. The evolution of "Three Changes of Changes" reflects the history of the ancestors' migration from the mountain dwelling era to the valley plains and into the farming era. It also reflects the process of human beings from adapting to nature to transforming nature.
Human beings have developed to this day, mastered quantum communication, and used satellites to guide production and life. It can be said that "sitting on the ground, traveling 80,000 miles a day, surveying the sky and seeing a thousand rivers in the distance." However, the understanding and grasp of the laws of nature are still unclear. Breaking away from the circle of human life, we still strictly observe the alternation of day and night, sunrise and sunset every day. From this perspective, our understanding of mountains is similar to that of mountains in the days of mountain dwelling. It will probably take a long time for humans to understand and master the universe.
