Mr. Yangming naturally knew Ye Feng's kind of thinking and how he would evaluate and view his own psychology. If the other party is really allowed to let go, the famous Zhuangzi is said to be like that. Even if he is a little stronger than Zhuangzi, I guess he will only be a little stronger in the end.
Mr. Yangming understands that in Ye Feng’s ideological theory, the heart has dual attributes of matter and consciousness, and is black and white intertwined and chaotic. Therefore, his cognitive judgment cannot be like his own, where "the heart is reason" and "there is nothing outside the heart and no reason outside the heart." ,
As expected, I heard Ye Feng say: "My standard for judging good and evil is not based solely on the heart. Because the human heart is chaotic and has dual attributes of matter and consciousness, it must be subjective and objective. We must consider both heart and consciousness. Factors in the external environment and material aspects must also be considered. To put it bluntly, it means action. As I said before, in terms of changes in material consciousness, depending on different situations, the dominance of consciousness and materiality may change. There is a difference.
"To put it simply, good things depend on your heart, and bad things depend on your actions."
Mr. Yangming carefully considered Ye Feng's words and tried to express his understanding of Ye Feng's thoughts.
"Good things depend on the heart, bad things depend on the behavior. The combination of heart and behavior, subjective and objective combination is used as the basis for judgment. It seems that the difficulty lies in how to choose between heart and behavior, but the real key lies in whether the judgment of good and bad things is based on you or others, Ye How did you choose me?"
Ye Feng said: "Thinking from someone else's perspective, put the other person as the standard of good and bad first, and then yourself."
Hearing this, Mr. Yangming was startled, and after a moment he smiled and said, "Although it's strange for me to say it from the mouth of someone who was beaten into a pig's head by you, it is undeniable that you are really a very gentle person."
Mr. Yangming paused deliberately and continued: "But this should not be enough. As a standard for judging good and evil, there should be more detailed and operable content."
Ye Feng said: "Like Brother Wang, I also have four sentences:
“Doing evil if you can do it is doing evil.
“It is good to be able to do evil but not to do it.
“Being good and doing good may not be good.
"Being able to do good but not doing it is close to evil."
Mr. Yangming said: "The ability to do evil and do good is the ability of consciousness, and doing evil and doing good is also a material and objective behavior. However, the "choice" of personal changes in mind and material consciousness is sandwiched between the two as a bridge, which will be controlled by consciousness. Combine the subjectivity of material behavior with the objectivity of material behavior, and then use the objective behavior itself to judge good and evil. Brother Ye, you have indeed combined the chaotic human heart and subjectivity with the three-yuan Tai Chi thinking method. I have to say, Very exciting.”
Mr. Yangming couldn't help but praise the man who beat himself into a pig's head, and said: "So no wonder, brother Ye, there are good and disgusting in your ideological system, and it's no wonder that the basic starting point of your thoughts can only be Theory of sexual evil.”
Ye Feng said: "Yes, the Four Sentences embodies the reaction of consciousness on matter. If the consciousness in the brain conforms to the choice of one's heart, then the material consciousness of the heart will appear material, accept the reaction of consciousness, and then promote The material behavior of external objects is manifested as 'doing evil if it can do evil' and 'doing good if it can do good'. On the contrary, if the consciousness in the brain does not conform to the choice of one's own heart, then the material consciousness of the heart will appear Consciousness, fight against, weaken the reaction of consciousness on matter. For example, 'can do evil but do not do' and 'can do good but do not do'. So I often say that human beings are not weak, but the power of human heart is powerful. That is Because of this basic logic.”
Mr. Yangming said: "By analogy, if matter determines consciousness, if the materiality of external objects conforms to the choice of one's heart, then the material consciousness of the mind will appear conscious and accept the determination of the materiality of the external environment. function, thereby promoting the formation and strengthening of consciousness in the brain. On the contrary, the material consciousness of the heart will appear material, resisting or even denying the decisive role of matter, thereby weakening the formation of consciousness in the brain. It has to be said that the complexity of the human heart is still It’s shown vividly, I hope you can understand this way of thinking.”
Hearing this, Ye Feng's eyes lit up and he said: "Mr. Yangming can understand the logic of my thoughts at a glance, and can even draw inferences from one fact to another. Mr. Yangming, you are indeed amazing. In fact, in a sense, this is actually the same as The "mind is reason" in Mr. Yangming's theory of mind is partly the same. It can even be said that my thoughts can be regarded as the product of the combination of Mr. Yangming's theory of mind and materialism. "
Mr. Yangming said: "No, you are the most powerful. Subjective consciousness and objective behavior, using the chaotic material-conscious human mind as the adjuster, can indeed explain the world more rationally than my theory of mind." Complexity. Not only is it closer to the truth, but it is also more inclusive of the world than my theory of mind. The key lies in the choice of human nature and the three-yuan Tai Chi thinking. In the vast world, you The theory highlights the human nature of the human heart, that is, the importance of human beings. No wonder your golden elixir method is humane. Although I don’t want to admit it, I have to admit that you have indeed gone further than my theory of mind. "
Ye Feng said: "Brother Wang, you are the senior, the predecessor. As your junior and future generations, if I can't hurt you more on your shoulders, and the future generations are weaker than the predecessors, then wouldn't it be like a weasel laying in the den?" , each generation is inferior to the last. As a predecessor, wouldn’t you also be disappointed? But my theory is not perfect, so I also benefited a lot from the discussion with Brother Wang today. This is by no means self-effacing. "
Mr. Yangming asked with a smile: "Brother Ye, what is your thought? Or what is the Tao you uphold?"
Ye Feng said: "A different way."
. . .
Mr. Yangming smiled at Ye Feng and said, "You are the person who has the most thorough understanding of human nature among the people I have ever met. Then you should know best that there is no hope for such a human being." is doomed to perish. Countless sages and philosophers throughout the dynasties have understood this truth, so they have spared no effort to change the atmosphere of the country, nation, and society in an effort to escape this fate. But how can human nature be so bad? Easily changeable, so they all failed without exception.
"They were deified, sainted, and enshrined, and their thoughts were deconstructed and even distorted by people's selfish desires. In terms of results, their names will last forever, and they were successful. But their thoughts were distorted by the world. It has also been passed down, so they also failed. However, they are all mortals, you are different, you are an immortal cultivator, and you don’t have to get involved in such nonsense as human beings."
And Ye Feng said: "Knowing that you can't do something but doing it, I don't think it is stupid in itself, but it is what makes them great."
Hearing this, Mr. Yangming laughed so loudly and happily: "Is this your answer?!"
