The allusion of "Zhuang Zhou's Dream Butterfly" comes from "Zhuang Zi·Qi Wu Lun", in which Zhuang Zhou refers to Zhuang Zi himself.
He slept at home one day, dreaming that he had become a butterfly, and then danced in the air. The image was so lifelike and the consciousness was so complete that Zhuangzi thought everything was real and even thought he was a butterfly.
After waking up, Zhuangzi found that he was still a human body, but he suddenly realized that this human body is also very lifelike in image and complete consciousness? The difference between
is that butterflies are dancing in the air, while people are walking on the ground. So he began to wonder whether he was a real butterfly and a person in a dream, or a real person and a butterfly in a dream? Although the story of
looks a little absurd, it reveals a profound truth-we live in this world, often do not question what we do, think that we are right, and that other people’s ideas and practices are wrong. , Never look at things from another angle.
Therefore, when encountering some difficulties and frustrations, I always feel confused and cannot distinguish what is true and what is false.
According to Taoism, one person’s world is one world, and different people see different worlds.
If we want to achieve great harmony, live in a world together, and achieve harmony and satisfaction, we must establish a connection with all things in the world, and then we can build a "real" world. The process of
is the process of real understanding of oneself and behavior.
There is only one real natural world, and the difference lies only in everyone’s cognition. Therefore, as long as the cognition of the world is the same, the contradictions between people, countries and nations, nations and nations can be resolved.
When we encounter a surprising thing, we often ask people around us to pinch ourselves. If there is pain, it means it is in reality, if not, it may be in a dream.
Everyone has had a dreaming experience. In dreams, we not only have a complete image and consciousness, but also a complete and even vivid environment. These situations make us feel that we are in reality. Many times we don't even know that we are in a dream, just like in real life, we never question whether we are in the consciousness and image of another world.
From a dialectical point of view, if we are obsessed with the world in front of us, we may never be able to appreciate the self in another world. And this self is of course composed of our consciousness and image, and whether it is Taoism, Buddhism, or Confucianism, they are all emphasizing another world.
The more we are obsessed with one thing, and the more we are obsessed with one thing, the easier it is to be deceived by it and lose sight of the objective environment and our position.
For example, female sex, money, power, many people are looking for these things, and when they wake up, they find that they have gone astray, or continue helplessly, or are in prison, or are old.
"I don't know that Zhou's dream is Hu Die and, Hu Die's dream is Zhou and Hu? There must be a difference between Zhou and Hu Die. This is called materialization."
materialization, but also the change between me All things are completely one, so "everyone is servicing, saints are stupid, they are long live and become pure, all things are completely, and therefore they are together".
Everyone is always busy arguing between right and wrong, but the saint seems to be very ignorant and ignorant, blending the many variations and ups and downs of the past and the present, but he is not troubled by the confusion, everything is like this, and because of this Accumulate in a simple and pure state.
