Chapter 1008
Although Ge Hong didn't have much contact with Shen Zhezi and was deliberately alienated, he still had a good understanding of Shen Zhezi's character.Although Shen Zhezi seems to be magnanimous and magnanimous, he has the humility to be in harmony with the public and courteous to the scholars, but in his heart there is a kind of aloof arrogance, which will always be revealed inadvertently.

This is also one of the reasons why Ge Hong has always held a respectful and distant attitude towards Shen Zhezi. If a person with such a personality is just a person with different family backgrounds and status, it is at best just a duplicity and pretending to be normal.

But Shen Zhezi happened to be from a noble family, with a high status, and he has the ability to guide the world.That's why this kind of person is particularly scary. Whatever their external appearance shows, they have all kinds of considerations and purposes, but they always have a calm and indifferent heart. Personnel with enough respect.

Such people, good and evil, are no longer judged well. If they really want to cause any harm to the world, it will definitely not be comparable to thieves like Liu and Shi.But once such a person commits evil, the means are too many to be guarded against, and even people can't help but dance with joy, willing to be an accomplice.

Therefore, Ge Hong's estrangement from Shen Zhezi, in addition to his own different interests, also carries a kind of awe that he has no choice but to dispel.

The words Shen Zhezi talked about today also confirmed Ge Hong's feelings about his character, which is basically a lawless and fearless madman.If the person is just an ordinary person who is depressed and unwilling, it can still be said to be angry for a while, but if the words come from Shen Zhezi's mouth, it means that this is his real thought!
However, what shocked Ge Hong even more was that after listening to Shen Zhezi's words of belittling sages and morals, apart from the urge to cover his ears and run away, he was actually a little bit excited!

Although Ge Hong is the current Jiangdong Tianshi Taoist master, he is not a person who is obsessed with mystery. Shidao has gained wider mainstream recognition.

It is precisely because of this upholding that it is conceivable that Shen Zhezi's words that are less than sages shocked Ge Hong.Compared with the so-called famous scholars who had great prosperity in metaphysics and talked about Xiaoyao since China and North Korea, Ge Hong paid more attention to the significance of Gangchang Mingjiao to the whole world.

Therefore, Ge Hong is a person who respects the profound way and abides by the etiquette. In fact, most of the great figures who become famous in the way of heavenly masters have this kind of duality, or they have pragmatic thinking besides advocating the emptiness.Only when they conform to the mainstream values ​​can many of their religious theories be packaged for sale and accepted by more people.

This is also reflected in Ge Hong's distaste for integrity. Although he does not approve of many behaviors of the Shen family, especially Shen Zhezi, he is still willing to accept donations and funding from the Shen family.This is the quality and attitude that a religious figure must have, because once the conflict is too sharp and the conflict is too intense, they will only suffer.

At least for the time being, the way of the Heavenly Master is to persuade people from above, and to subdue people from below. Any confrontation with the mainstream, especially those in power, is just asking for trouble.

For example, the Tianshi Dao in Jiangdong has almost become a plaything in the hands of the Shen family. The house record preaching and worship of the believers have already been seized by the powerful sects headed by the Shen family. In other words, no matter whether it is human or financial resources, they no longer have It has established its own source channels, and further established its vassal status as a result of its dependence.

And the leader of Dao Zhongyin, Master Wu Zhonglu, can be said to have been reduced to Shen Zhezi's grasp. He is keen to study some Dao rituals, fasting and offering sacrifices. Although he is also promoting the development of Dao Chuan, he no longer has independent status.

It was precisely because he knew what kind of person Ge Hong was that Shen Zhezi dared to say such things in front of him.Although Shen Zhezi's reputation is now lofty, and the morality of today's world is not deeply restrained by Confucianism, legalism and ethics, there is no shortage of worldly styles, but if his theory is really spread, it will inevitably be attacked by some defenders of Taoism and even metaphysicians.

Saints never die, but robbers never stop, although there is an old saying by Zhuangzi.However, when Shen Zhezi raised it, it was fundamentally different from Zhuangzi. Zhuangzi was not in line with the aloofness, but Shen Zhezi showed a kind of ambition to replace it. He held the same attitude to the so-called ancient teachings of sages as Confucius did to ghosts and gods. Attitude, leave it alone.

As a religious person, although Ge Hong respectfully obeys the code of ethics, this is a means for him to gain recognition, rather than a firm belief. This is also a pragmatic adaptation.As long as it can be determined to be beneficial to them, there is nothing that cannot be absorbed and integrated. This is one of the reasons why Shen Zhezi and Ge Hong have discussed this step.

But even so, Ge Hong still could not accept Shen Zhezi's statement: "If the scriptures and righteousness are ignored, then there is no morality? People boast of different standards, so who should the people obey? Father and son cannot follow suit, brothers hold their own. Heresy, the reason why the morals of the world are more important than the rules and regulations is not based on priority. Everyone follows this, so that everyone can be upright and chaos will not arise. The governor is a good minister who calms chaos. Word!"

The reason why he said this is not as a seeker who is obsessed with immortality, but as a religious leader whose popularity is tied, he upholds his social responsibility.

Hearing what Ge Hong said, Shen Zhezi also became serious.Although the old man is still denying himself in his words, since he is still willing to talk, it shows that he at least partially agrees with his point of view, thus pointing out the biggest logical loophole in his words, that is, there is no standard.

Standards are the most important definition to evaluate whether something is good or bad. Once a broad argument spreads everywhere, it is a terrible thing to have no standards.

For example, the Confucian Yangming Mind Theory, because there is no standard, is also the most complicated school and the most intense internal struggle.Psychology pays attention to seeking from within, reaching conscience, and not seeking from without, which leads to what kind of achievements you have achieved or what kind of state you have reached. It is based on your own self as the standard, and cannot be judged objectively.

So which faction is the orthodoxy of psychology?I think I am, the rest are heresies, how can this kind of mentality coexist peacefully.And once you have a universally recognized orthodoxy of psychology, it means that you still have to seek outside to prove yourself, and you have deviated from it.

Of course, the greatest value of Xinxue lies in the affirmation of personal value, so on this basis, it can make the old theory glow with new vitality.

Even if there is no theory, even ordinary things will become chaotic if there is no standard, so it is necessary to advocate the same text of books, the same track of cars, and the unification of weights and measures.

Shen Zhezi's words of destroying and abandoning sages are not aimed at a certain former sage, but directly question the ancient inheritance and the coexistence mode that maintains people and people, and people and heaven and earth.

Shen Zhezi laughed again and said: "The reason why the father is the father, and the reason why the son is the son, Mr. Gai's people refer to them. There may be different names in the north, the south, China and foreign countries, but it does not change the essence of the inheritance of flesh and blood. Hey, it’s not easy to make false accusations in the Qin Dynasty. Men and women, old and young, change clothes in spring and autumn, but it’s just a texture. It can be seen that the world has its own laws, and they will never be changed by the sages’ discourses and the destruction of strong beams.”

"Beyond the pole of heaven, there is the pole of heaven, and beyond the pole of heaven, there is another pole of heaven, and beyond the pole of heaven, there is another pole of heaven. Xiaohan forms astrology by itself, Yuan Qi is subtle and subtle, and there is no lack of eternity in the ancient times. There is still great power beyond human power. Animals and birds born from viviparous eggs have their own The great ability to run and soar. Mr. has been immersed in the mysterious way for a long time, but he is still trapped in this earthly body. He can't travel a thousand miles a day, and his vertical leap can't measure up to the size. territory?"

Hearing Shen Zhezi sarcastically ridiculing his shallow morality, Ge Hong couldn't calm down for a while no matter how well-trained he was, and said with a cold snort, "I don't know that the great governor is also deeply familiar with the theory of the immortal Fang's family."

"I can't achieve the highest goodness by cultivating this human body, so how dare I expect to be able to reach the realm of the gods and wonders like my husband. However, there is always a connection in the world. I am sensitive to human affairs and make wild guesses in the immortal way. For example, Mr. In business, although the ancient hermits and lofty theories are widely used, you still have to dig and cast gold and copper, and burn elixir to be good at Taoism. How much interest is hidden in all things in the world, Mr. is the master among them, and I am far behind."

Shen Zhezi paused for a while, and then continued: "Speaking of this, I would like to ask you, why are people and things always bound to the ground and not allowed to dance in the air? , finally fell to the ground?"

"When the qi is transformed, the clear ones will naturally rise, and the turbid ones will settle. The governor Gao Zhiminda, why do you need to ask people about this micro-principle?"

Hearing Ge Hong's explanation, Shen Zhezi couldn't help feeling that the ancients just understood a little too much, so he asked again: "I also know that the voices of the characters are different, but how much is the difference, and I don't know how it can be weighed? For example, my husband and I, the gentleman is naturally very fresh, but if we really jump through the air, the teacher may not be able to beat me by a few points."

"Ridiculous! This is really ridiculous! How can you say that it is voicing!"

For Shen Zhezi's harsh question, it's not that Ge Hong has no words to fight back, but seeing the serious expression on the other side's face, he feels that Xia Chong is beyond words. For such a deeply obsessed person, it's useless to say what he says .

However, Shen Zhezi had the pleasure of making strong arguments, and continued: "When Qi is transformed, the top is clear and the bottom is turbid. How can we divide it? I have also read a little about Mr. Gao's works recently, but I have noticed that the old theories are more obsessed with seeking clarity. Quality, but little power to pursue. All things in the world have their own qi, but they also have their own strength. I can surpass my husband by virtue of my strength, not because of my quality, but because of my strength.

People and things have different weights, which is the embodiment of the material force added by heaven and earth. The catkins are light, and a little wind can dissolve the material force and dance up.Things have always been static and fixed, and only because of the exertion of material force can they take on their respective postures.Mr. is only dedicated to clean quality, but he is seldom aware of material resources.Qi is ethereal and cannot be weighed, but strength can be measured concretely. "

At this point, Shen Zhezi saw that Ge Hong had turned into a frown, and then he smiled and said: "I am just peeking into the darkness outside the door. No matter what, I can't compare with my master's profound knowledge. Even if I have such a delusion, It is also out of the idea of ​​utilitarianism. If you can clearly judge the power of the world and all things, and get the essence of its use, then why can't you borrow it? What is the difference between me and heaven and man? Gaining its power and nourishing its virtue, All in virtue, isn't this a natural way of law?"
