What are the four realms of life? What are the four realms of life?

Wang Guowei said in "Words in the World" that those who have become great careers and university questions in ancient and modern times must pass through the triple realm

The first realm: Last night, the west wind withered the green trees, and I went up to the tall building alone, looking at the end of the world.

The second realm: the belt gradually widens and does not regret it, and makes people haggard for Yi.

The third realm: The crowd looked for him, and suddenly looked back, but the person was in the lamplight.

Without a long-term view, there is no way to determine a valuable exploration goal.

Without the urgent desire and self-confidence in the goal, it is difficult to face the long and arduous journey.

Without thousands of up and down searches, there will be no instantaneous epiphany.

Wang Guowei, a master of Chinese culture, delicately explained the road of life in three sentences: the initial confusion, then the persistence and the final epiphany.

There is no other way to succeed.

I believe everyone is very familiar with Wang Guowei's "three realms" theory, and many people have extended it to many other fields, such as business management, marketing, research and development, etc., which is deeply inspiring.

The above three sentences are taken from Yan Shu [Butterfly Love Flower], Liu Yong [Feng Qiwu] and Xin Qiji [Qingyu Case].

Yan Shu [Butterfly Love Flower].

The threshold chrysanthemum is sorrowful, and the smoke is weeping. The curtain was cold, and the swallows flew away. The bright moon does not know how to part, and the oblique light penetrates the Zhu household.

Last night the west wind withered the green trees. Go up to the tall building alone and look at the end of the world. If you want to send color notes and rulers, you know where the mountains and rivers are.

Liu Yong [Feng Qiwu].

Leaning on the dangerous building, the wind is fine. Looking forward to the extreme spring sorrow, gloomy sky. In the afterglow of grass-colored smoke. Speechless, who will rely on the column.

I plan to get drunk with a crazy picture, and I sing about wine, and I have no taste for it. The belt gradually widened and did not regret it, and it made people haggard for Yi.

Xin Qijian [Qingyu case].

Thousands of trees bloom at night in the east wind. More blows down, stars like rain. BMW carved cars are full of incense, the sound of the phoenix flute moves, the jade pot turns brightly, and the fish and dragon dance all night.

Moth snow willow ** wisps. The laughter is full of dark fragrance. The crowd is looking for it. Suddenly looking back, the man was there, and the lights were dim.

The reason why people are different from each other is because of the difference in realm.

There are four realms of life: the natural realm, the utilitarian realm, the moral realm, and the heaven and earth realm. Natural Realm:

If a person is just doing things according to instinct or customs, but he is not aware of it, or he does not understand it very well. What he does has no meaning or very little meaning to him. Utilitarian realm:

Man is aware of himself and does all kinds of things for himself. This does not mean that he is necessarily an immoral person. He can do something, and then bring Wang Chongguo to the benefit of others, and his motive is self-interested.

Therefore, all kinds of things he does have utilitarian significance for him. Moral realm: Man understands the existence of society, he is a member of society.

This society is a stupid whole, and he is a part of this whole. With this understanding, he does all kinds of things for the benefit of society, or as Confucianism says, he does things for the sake of "righteousness and not profit." He is truly a moral person, and all he does is moral behavior that conforms to a strict moral sense.

Everything he did had a moral meaning. The moral realm has moral values. Heaven and Earth Realm (Philosophical Realm):

Man understands that beyond the whole of society, there is a larger whole, the universe. He is not only a member of society, but also a member of the universe. He was a citizen of the social organization, and at the same time what Mencius called a "heavenly citizen."

With this understanding, he does all sorts of things for the good of the universe. He understands the meaning of what he is doing and realizes that he is doing what he does. The realm of heaven and earth has supermoral values.

The realm of life", the essence of the four realms refers to: the natural realm, the utilitarian realm, the moral realm, and the realm of heaven and earth.

1. The natural realm.

A person does things just according to his instincts or his social customs, and what he does is unaware or unincomrutable, and this matter has no or little meaning to him, and the state of life that this person has reached, that is, the natural state.

2. Utilitarian realm.

A person may be aware of himself and do all sorts of things for himself. This does not mean that he is necessarily an immoral person. The consequences of what they do can be beneficial to others, and the motive is self-interest, which has utilitarian significance for themselves. This state of life is the realm of utilitarianism.

3. Moral realm.

A person may understand the existence of society and become a member of it, have this awareness and do all kinds of things for the benefit of society, that is, for the sake of "righteousness and not profit". He is a truly moral person, and what he does is in line with strict moral behavior and has moral significance. This state of life is the moral realm.

4. The realm of heaven and earth.

A person is not only a member of society, but also a member of the universe. He was a citizen of the social organization, and at the same time what Mencius called a "heavenly citizen." With this understanding, he does all sorts of things for the good of the universe.

He understands the meaning of what he does and consciously does what he is doing. This realization constituted the highest state of life for him. This state of life is the realm of heaven and earth.

The four realms of life refer to: the natural realm, the utilitarian realm, the moral realm, and the realm of heaven and earth. The four realms of life, which are based on the classics of the Spring and Autumn Period and the philosophies of the sages of the past dynasties, are actually the four stages of a perfect life.

1.The natural realm: If a person is just doing things according to instinct or customs, but he is not aware of it, or he is not aware of it. What is done has no meaning, or little meaning.

2.Utilitarian realm: Man is aware of himself and does all kinds of things for himself. This does not mean that he is necessarily an immoral person. It is possible to do something that has the consequences of benefiting others and the motive of self-interest. Therefore, all kinds of things that are done have utilitarian significance.

3.Moral realm: Man understands the existence of society, he is a member of society.

This society is a whole, a part of this whole. With this understanding, he does all kinds of things for the benefit of society, or as Confucianism says, he does things for the sake of "righteousness and not profit." A truly moral person does moral behavior that conforms to a strict moral sense.

Everything that is done has a moral meaning. The moral realm has moral values.

4.Heaven and Earth Realm (Philosophical Realm): Man understands that beyond the whole of society, there is a larger whole, the universe.

Not only a member of society, but also a member of the universe. He is a citizen of the social organization, and at the same time he is also the "citizen of heaven" as Mencius said. With this understanding, we do all kinds of things for the benefit of the universe.

Understand the meaning of what he is doing, and consciously do what he does. The realm of heaven and earth has supermoral values.
