He is also called the ancestor of all kinds of workers. Carpenters, bricklayers, construction companies and even theatrical troupes all have the tradition of respecting Lu Ban as their grandfather. Ancient trade had its own rules and practices. Most craftsmen preach and teach by dictation according to the strict mentoring system. However, Lu Ban wrote a wonderful book, which is forbidden as a teaching material? Lubanshu
This book is divided into three parts. The first part is the first part, which is the production method of the construction industry. The second part is called taboo, which is divided into the middle part and the second half. The middle part is Taoism, and the second part is Dafa and medical incantation.
If you want to learn the second part, you must choose one of the orphans and widows and fulfill it on yourself. Therefore, the nickname of "Lu Ban Shu" is "missing a door". Why is Lu Ban Shu called a banned book? Will "One Door Missing" really come true?
Ancient taboo secrets
Philosophically speaking, things often have two sides, and good luck and bad luck depend on each other. But out of fear of unfortunate things, people often change its good side completely because of choking on food.
Ancient people pay attention to geomantic omen, and there are many taboos in daily life, which are closely related to the carpenter's daily work. At the same time, in ancient times, according to the social status of "scholar, agriculture and business", the status of craftsmen was not high.
Some wealthy families sometimes don't attach importance to such people. For craftsmen, they often beat and scold or even default on wages. Some secret skills recorded in Lu Ban Shu have played a role in upholding justice, punishing evil and promoting good. Today, there are still rumors in some areas that carpenters should not be offended because they are afraid of the secret spells in this book.
Therefore, the contents recorded in "The Book of Lu Ban" are very reasonable, mainly for the purpose of inheriting architectural skills and geomantic craftsman techniques, which were originally helpful for craftsmen to exist in the world. However, after the spread of the book became wider, everything changed, and some unscrupulous criminals would use the strange skills in "The Book of Lu Ban" differently, causing more negative impacts on society, and finally making "The Book of Lu Ban" a banned book.
This not only completely violates the author's original intention, but also damages the wisdom of our ancestors to some extent.
As a practical teaching material, The Book of Lu Ban has considered all imminent consequences as much as possible. Because the second half of the book records too many spells that reveal the secret, Lu Ban has marked it on the title page of the next book, "Whoever reads this book will have no children or daughters if he does it, and no children or daughters if he doesn't do it!" , "Lu Ban Shu" is also known as the unique method, and "lack of one" remains in the world.
I just didn't expect that such a vicious curse could not stop the curiosity of the world.
"A door is missing"? Widowed, widowed, lonely, lonely, disabled
There is a sad story behind Missing a Door. Shortly after Lu Ban got married, he was called to work in Beijing. His wife is just pregnant and misses her husband day and night. Ruban and his wife have a deep friendship and can't bear to see her sad. He made a wooden kite, sat on it, sipped his mouth and read a spell. He just needs to figure out where to go, and he can arrive in an instant.
Luban's wife is curious about the secret method. She secretly took advantage of Lu Ban's carelessness and wrote a spell. Once, when Grandpa came home, she secretly rode on a wooden kite and read a few spells like others, and the wooden kite flew into the sky.
However, "there are unexpected events in the sky, and people are doomed." Luban's wife suddenly became anxious, and her son was born prematurely, bleeding on the wooden kite. The spell lost its effect and fell from the sky, killing the mother and child. When Lu Ban learned the news, he was disheartened and regretted it. He knew that not all people could learn secret spells, so he set a curse of "missing a door".
Everything in the world should follow a balanced order, with gains and losses, and gains and losses. "I want fish and paws. You can't have both. " Too perfect is not life, "missing one door" seems to be the normal state of life.
Sometimes gain is loss, loss is gain, and gain and loss are not the result of hard work, but a causal cycle. When your gain is based on the loss of others, it will inevitably plant the evil cause of loss; When you fail for others, you plant good causes. This is the cycle.
The ancients said, "cultivating immortals and stealing secrets is the evil of heaven and the harm of scholars!" " According to legend, people who study Lu Ban's book all know that "there is one family in the world", but the connotation behind it is very regrettable, which means that "those who enter our door have no ancestors and grandchildren and are single for life", which conforms to the causal cycle of the world.
The "loneliness, loneliness and disability" in Missing a Subject is really unbearable. However, as long as you can learn the secret methods in the book, you can master more unique methods, which is no different from gambling, with mixed results. What really affects us and determines us is often not those external conditions, but choices, and ultimately choices lead us to different paths.
Of course, some people will ask, "Will the lack of one really come true?" ? We can't know this at present, because there are no examples to illustrate it, but there has always been a legend among the people that "the Yin and Yang family destroyed three generations and the Taoist destroyed three generations". These special professionals will be punished once and for all because they need to reveal their secrets frequently. Master Lu Ban set "a door is missing" in the book, and I am afraid so.
According to today's scientific point of view, this statement is obviously not credible, but the penetration rate of closed and backward ancient knowledge is low. When people encounter some unexplained events, they can only subconsciously contact the Oracle. Those events were regarded as "providence", which just gave a hotbed for the free growth of feudal superstition.
In ancient times, this was a spiritual belief. The existence of the "lack of a door" has played multiple purposes, which can not only repel a group of people with ulterior motives, but also test the determination and will of apprentices and completely cut off the industry monopoly of small groups. However, because its connotation is too mysterious, the real "Lu Ban Shu" may have vanished into thin air and disappeared into the long river of history in the course of thousands of years of cultural inheritance.
Whether it is "Lu Ban Shu" or "Lost Door", it confirms a truth, that is, there will be no pie in the sky. As trees are, so are fruits. So don't be afraid to lose unless you don't want it. If you don't pay at all, don't expect anything in return.
What you get is often not proportional to what you lose. Maybe you don't care about today's loss. Maybe one day in the future, you may find that what you once cared about is now your dream.
