Chapter 392: Chopsticks Culture
[How nice, my adoptive mother still talks to her well. When I was a child, my mother slapped her chopsticks and slapped her down, crying. JPG. 】

【Oh, me too.When I was young, I liked to knock the bowl with chopsticks and stick the chopsticks on the rice. My mother said it was beggar behavior.He also likes to hold chopsticks in his mouth, so my mother called directly with chopsticks. 】

[My mother didn’t say that the same dish can’t be served three times in a row, but every parent’s quality is also different, but they all corrected the behavior they thought was impolite, isn’t it great? 】

[It is unlucky for us to insert chopsticks on the rice for sacrifice. 】

[It is really a tragedy for the Chinese people that a good traditional culture is so belittled, and it is also smothered with a shit bowl that suffocates maternal love! 】

[Chinese people should wake up and refuse to be coerced by capital. 】

[Humbly ask the boss, so, where is the connection between chopsticks and the theory of yin and yang?When using it, one chopstick is on the top and the other is on the bottom? 】

[Upstairs, you know how to observe.I also found that when one chopstick moves, the other will follow. 】

[In the process of using chopsticks, the up and down, active and passive, I think we are using the theoretical knowledge of the theory of yin and yang, but we usually just use it, and never need to care about the theoretical laws and culture behind it. 】

[That's right, the common people use it but don't know it. 】

[For the understanding of the relationship between human beings and the world, the ancients had a concept of the three talents of heaven, earth, and man.When you use chopsticks, have you ever paid attention to the posture in which you hold the chopsticks? 】

[The image of the three talents of heaven, earth and man, is it also related to the posture of holding chopsticks? 】

[When holding chopsticks, the thumb and index finger are on top, the ring finger and little finger are on the bottom, and the middle finger is in the middle. This is exactly the image of the three talents of heaven, earth and man. 】

【Immediately took the chopsticks out to observe, it really is. 】

[Seconds to understand the concept of harmony between man and nature. 】

[Someone asked earlier, how does the theory of yin and yang apply to the use of chopsticks?When you use chopsticks, is one on top and the other on the bottom?Up is yang, down is yin. 】

[What about before and after? 】

[The front and back are also a pair of yin and yang. 】

Similar doubts are dumb.

[One is active, and the other is bound to be passive. The active is Yang, and the passive is Yin. This is called the image of two appearances.You can refer to the famous Tai Chi diagram, a white fish and a black fish, the eyes of the white fish are black, and the eyes of the black fish are white, this is called you in you and you in me.When two fish combine into one, it is Tai Chi. 】

【Combine two into one to form a whole. The ancients were very particular about the holistic view. 】

[The same goes for chopsticks, which talks about the culture of pairs and the culture of the Book of Changes. 】

【Appreciate further details. 】

[Pairs and pairs are indeed, out of pairs into pairs describes a good relationship between husband and wife. 】

[Butterflies and mandarin ducks must be in pairs. 】

[The big stone lions at the entrance of the ancestral hall must have a row of faces, the male lion on the left and the female lion on the right.The one who steps on the hydrangea is the male lion, and the one who steps on the cub is the female lion. 】

[The lion was originally a tribute from the Yuezhi Kingdom in ancient times. The royal family felt that it was very imperial, so a large stone lion could be seen at the entrance of the palace, majestic and majestic. 】

[Isn't the lion from Africa? 】

[The ancient Yuezhi Kingdom was in Africa. 】

[Learned again. 】

[The big stone lion at the gate of the palace has a movable stone in its mouth, which means don't talk too much. 】

[The lion at the gate of the temple also has a stone in its mouth, how do you explain it? 】

[Those who offer incense in the temple, believers and good women come here for all kinds of prayers. There are balls in the lion's mouth, and there are balls and prayers. 】

[Responsive to every request. 】

【Study members! 】

[And the stone lion at the entrance of the bank? 】

[Financial resources are abundant. 】

[Good guy, the stone lions also flexibly use the theory of yin and yang, forming pairs. 】

[Not to mention that I didn't realize that the chopsticks are also in pairs. 】

[It is really a pair culture. 】

[But what is the relationship between chopsticks and Yijing culture? 】

[As we all know, one chopstick cannot hold things. Two chopsticks must be combined into one to form a joint force to play the role of holding things. 】

[That's true.I can't stand alone. 】

[One has to be sharpened to fork things. 】

[There are sharp bars everywhere, are they still chopsticks if they are pointed?That's the spike, sticking out as much as you do. 】

【Ha ha ha ha. 】

[When the chopsticks are combined into one, it is Tai Chi, which means a perfect result.When the Tai Chi of chopsticks is divided into two, and when they play the function of holding things, they are Yin and Yang, implying that everything follows the law of opposites and unity. 】

[And the two chopsticks are interchangeable, that is to say, which chopstick is active or passive does not remain the same, which also shows that Yin and Yang can be transformed into each other under certain conditions. 】

[Uh, that's true. 】

[The reason why chopsticks are simple and not simple is because they are simple because they are composed of two slender sticks, which we use every day and can be seen everywhere, which is the most simple and simple.Simplicity is one of the characteristics of the Three Changes of Yijing culture. 】

[Okay, I was successfully convinced. 】

【I also. 】

[You can see it everywhere, use chopsticks every day, but know nothing about the world of chopsticks, really. 】

[One flower, one world, I suddenly realized the Zen meaning in it. 】

[What about the other two transactions? 】

[Chopsticks can be made of many kinds of materials, as mentioned in the barrage above, chopsticks carved out of ivory, chopsticks inlaid with patterns, in addition, chopsticks can also be made of wood, bamboo, jade and other materials, traditional ordinary chopsticks Most are made of bamboo.This is the change of chopsticks. 】

[Understood, change. 】

[Really. 】

[No matter how the chopsticks change, their characteristics of being straight and long and forming a pair remain unchanged.This also shows that the properties of things themselves will not change.This is the difficulty of chopsticks. 】

[Learn another one, it's not easy. 】

[The three changes of Yijing culture, simple, changeable and difficult, are included in a pair of chopsticks. 】

[It was mentioned earlier in the barrage that Japan also uses chopsticks to hold sushi. In fact, chopsticks, as a symbol that condenses traditional Chinese culture, were also passed down from my country. 】

[Not only spread to Japan, but also radiated to the Korean Peninsula, Southeast Asian countries and regions. 】

[Now chopsticks are used all over the world. 】

[Careful friends should have noticed that Japanese chopsticks are pointed at one end, and they are not as silky as our chopsticks when holding things. It is easier for things to slip between the two chopsticks. 】

【That’s true. I wondered about this when I was eating Japanese food, but I didn’t notice the sharp ends of their chopsticks. 】

[It has to be our ancestors. 】

[I haven't learned the essence, it's just a show. 】

[In addition, our chopsticks are placed there, neither rolling nor wandering. 】

【I go!Another advantage. 】

[It's also something I haven't found before. 】
