My vegetable garden connects to the fairy world of Lilliput

Humans...may really be on par with immortals.

This is the case in the prehistoric immortal world.

How can this world be different?

Perhaps...looking inward can also draw inferences, and seeing the truth of the immortal world from a small part of the tube.

…

The little people heard this.

They looked straight at the cultivators in the prehistoric immortal world.

Pangu spoke: "What the immortal master said is right. In our prehistoric world...in fact, the status of humans and immortals is almost the same, especially the human emperor...they cannot practice, but their status is not lower than that of saints. Even the prehistoric saints are afraid of cause and effect and dare not take direct action."

"And people's beliefs are what immortals and gods desire."

"So...some saints want to promote the Conferred God Tribulation." Pangu looked at the ancestor Hongjun meaningfully.

The ancestor Hongjun lowered his head in shame.

He dared not say anything.

The biggest behind-the-scenes manipulator of the Conferred God Tribulation was actually him.

The purpose was also very simple, to divide the fate of the human race.

The human race is too scary.

They have amazing fertility and... show great advantages among all races. It is reasonable to say that they are innate spirits.

Let's put it this way... even if this race was created by Nuwa, Nuwa would not dare to destroy it easily. Even if King Zhou of Shang was designed to blaspheme her, the mother of human creation, she could not directly take action. You can imagine how awesome humans are.

From the moment they were created, they were no longer affiliated creatures of anyone.

They are independent existences.

Even... Nuwa doesn't seem like a real creator. It seems that the reason why Nuwa created humans is a mission. After her mission is completed, it has nothing to do with the human race.

It seems that even if Nuwa didn't create humans, there would be Nanwa who created humans, and other Wa who created humans.

This is a mission and an opportunity, which happened to be picked up by Nuwa. (But it refers to the setting of this book, don't bring it into other literary works)

This point is more concrete after the prehistoric fairyland broke the world barrier and entered other worlds.

Even the prehistoric Nuwa felt so.

Because of a very obvious phenomenon... there are humans in other worlds.

Were humans in other worlds also created by Nuwa?

Nuwa remembered that she had no experience of traveling to other worlds to create humans, so... this is very strange.

Nuwa and humans are actually a kind of transaction. She brought humans to the prehistoric world, and she also obtained the status of a saint. Humans... don't owe her much.

So it seems that the human race is very mean.

But the fact is that after Nuwa created humans, she also became a saint. In fact, she herself also had great benefits, and humans didn't owe her anything.

"So... humans are actually pretty awesome?" Black Kirin said.

The word "awesome" was learned from Xiaoli.

"It should be so." Pangu said.

...

Suning spoke again: "It's not that humans are awesome, but that all creatures are born awesome. The people here... belong to a general term, which can refer to humans, or you and me." Suning said.

Hearing this, everyone nodded.

Today, they benefited a lot.

Originally, they thought that Suning and the world were almost understood by themselves.

Unexpectedly, every time when everyone felt that they had completely understood it, Suning always showed unfathomable cognition, and this world... always showed a vast taste.

The little people admired and were shocked.

Looking forward to Suning's continued preaching.

Suning continued:

"Okay, next, let's continue to talk about the next knowledge of Wang Yangming's philosophy of mind, the unity of knowledge and action."

The unity of knowledge and action?

Know, then act...

Understand and then act?

"This is one of the core concepts of Wang Yangming's philosophy of mind.

It means that knowledge and action are an inseparable whole, "knowledge is the beginning of action, and action is the completion of knowledge".

Wang Yangming believed that traditional Confucianism overemphasized the learning of knowledge and neglected practical action, which was incorrect. True knowledge must be tested and reflected through practice. Only by transforming knowledge into practical action can we truly achieve people's moral cultivation and social harmony.

For example, a person knows the truth of filial piety to his parents, but if he only stays on the lip service and does not take practical actions to care for and take care of his parents, then he cannot be regarded as truly filial."

When the little people heard this, they couldn't help but sigh...

That's right.

Know and then act.

Just when the little people wanted to study it in depth, Suning said: "However, it is generally believed that this theory is actually wrong."

"???"

Wrong?

No... This is wrong?

"Or the order is wrong!"

Everyone was full of question marks?

Saints, are also wrong?

This…

“Know and act…means knowing, then acting, and acting will accomplish it.”

“However, manyWhen...only by taking action can we know...understand the great way!"

"That is to say, action is the only criterion for testing facts." Suning said.

"Well...the reason why I said this is to tell you that saints...actually, they are also wrong, and I still want to say it out loud because I want you to know the full picture of Wang Yangming's philosophy of mind." Suning said.

"I want to tell you that we should not only follow the superiors or the books, but also the facts!"

"The next thing to talk about is the third theory, to reach the conscience:

This is the fundamental purpose of Wang Yangming's philosophy of mind.

Wang Yangming believed that everyone is born with conscience, which is the inner moral perception and the standard for judging right and wrong. However, people's conscience will be obscured by selfish desires, so they need to polish their conscience through self-cultivation practice,

so as to achieve moral perfection. "To" is the practice of "doing good and eliminating evil", through constant self-reflection, removing selfish desires and distracting thoughts in the heart, and restoring the original appearance of conscience.

When conscience expands and accumulates from oneself, it will reach a certain level and realize the realm of "greater self", reflecting social responsibility and care for others. "After Suning finished speaking, most people at the scene were silent.

Because many people present actually do things without conscience or bad conscience, they are all egoistic, I am conscience, whatever I do is right, even if it is killing and arson.

"This is also a matter of opinion, but I want to say one thing, this world will eventually move from disorder to order, that is to say... order will be the final result anyway."

"The birth of Wang Yangming's philosophy of mind is closely related to the social background and academic environment of the Ming Dynasty at that time, and it has had an extremely important impact on later generations.

At the turn of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Wang Yangming's philosophy of mind became one of the mainstream thoughts,

influencing many scholars and thinkers. In Japan, Wang Yangming's thoughts were widely used in education and governance, and had an important impact on the process of modernization of Japanese pirates.

In modern times, Wang Yangming's idea of ​​"unity of knowledge and action" is still inspiring, encouraging people to focus on practice and application while pursuing knowledge to achieve personal value and social progress.
