What is the origin of Hutuluo?

River Map and Luo Shu are the sources of China culture. The Book of Changes says, "Rivers paint, Luo writes, and sages write." This saint is Fuxi, the ancestor of human culture. Legend has it that in Fu, a dragon horse appeared from the Yellow River, carrying a "river map"; A turtle appeared from Luoshui, carrying "Luoshu". Fuxi drew eight diagrams according to this kind of "picture" and "book". Later, Zhou Wenwang studied the written king eight diagrams and sixty-four hexagrams according to Fuxi's eight diagrams, and wrote them into eight diagrams respectively.

He Tu and Luo Shu are two mysterious patterns handed down from ancient China, which have always been regarded as the origin of Heluo culture.

On October 2014165438+1October1Kloc-0/day, the legend of Hutuluo was approved by the State Council to be included in the fourth batch of national intangible cultural heritage list.

He Tu and Luo Shu are the source of China culture, and they are the five elements of Yin and Yang. Confucian scholars in the Han dynasty thought that the river map was gossip, while Luo Shu was the nine realms of Hongfan in Shangshu. He Tu and Luo Shu first appeared in Shangshu, and then hundred schools of thought appeared in Yi Zhuan. Tai Chi, Eight Diagrams, Zhouyi, Liu Jia, nine planets, Feng Shui and so on can all be traced back to this point.

There is a cloud in the Book of Changes: "Rivers draw pictures, Luo writes books, and saints write them." The Book of Changes and Hong Fan play an important role in the history of China's cultural development, and have far-reaching influence on philosophy, politics, military science, ethics, aesthetics and literature. As the source of China's history and culture, Hetuluo's works have contributed a lot.

Trace the origin

Zhouyi originated from Fuxi Bagua, which in turn originated from He Tu and Luo Shu. Zhu, a great philosopher in the Song Dynasty, juxtaposed "River Map" and "Luo Shu" for the first time in the book The Original Meaning of Zhouyi, and put his map in the first place, with nine as the river map and ten as the Luo Shu. Scholars in later generations think that Zhu's "River Map" and "Luo Shu" originated from Chen Tuan, a Taoist priest in the Song Dynasty, and Zhu introduced the old and brought forth the new. Zhu briefly described the development process of River Map and Luo Shu, saying: "The images of books began in Kong Anguo, Liu Xin and Wei Guanlangzi in the Han Dynasty, and were called by Mr. Song and Mr. Shao Yongyao in the Ming Dynasty. They changed their names in Liu Mu, but because of them, many scholars restored them today and learned from their old names. " Zhu said so, but in the Qing Dynasty, scholars such as Huang Zongxi and Hu Weiwei raised objections to Song Ru's River Map and Luo Shu. Since then, "river map" and "Luo Shu" have become a long-standing mystery in academic circles.
