Why is there such a thing as the sky is round and the place is round ?

"Heaven and earth are round" is not a flat theory, but a philosophical thought in ancient China, and a manifestation of the theory of yin and yang. The sky and the circle symbolize movement; The earth and the square symbolize stillness; The combination of the two is the balance of yin and yang, and the complementarity of movement and static.

The design concept of "Heaven and Place" is expressed in ancient Chinese architecture, currency, etc., such as the Temple of Heaven and the Temple of Earth, the courtyard house, and the square hole round coin. These patterns and structures of "round heavens and round places" play a propaganda role in traditional Chinese culture.

"The sky is round and the earth is round" is the ancient science's understanding of the universe. The ancient Chinese's method of understanding the universe is different from the empirical experimental method of modern science, but the practice of "internal evidence". Ancient scientists summed up a set of abstract world laws through the practice of "internal evidence": the five elements of yin and yang.

The five elements of yin and yang are divided into many levels, and their concepts are like the unknowns "x,y" in the equation in modern mathematics, that is, when the equation is solving a specific problem, the unknown numbers such as x,y have specific representative substances, and when explained from a purely mathematical point of view, x,y are unknowns that do not have a specific point.

It means that there are ideals and hopes in the heart, the heavens are round and the movement changes, and the place converges and stands still.

The circle of heaven and earth is the ancient scientific understanding of the universe. The main method of the ancient Han people in the process of understanding the universe is completely different from the empirical experimental method of modern science, and the "internal evidence" is the main method of the ancients to understand the universe, and this method is to continuously strengthen the human body's own energy according to a certain energy circulation mode of human life, so as to achieve the perception ability beyond the ordinary public.

The circle of heaven and earth also implies an essence theory of traditional Chinese Han culture: everything comes into existence from nothing, and it has a close relationship with the energy changes between heaven and earth, so the ancients said that "heaven and man are one".

<>1, the heaven and the earth are scattered, and the party is actually saying. The heavens are boundless spheres, and the earth is boundary.

2. People call the place where they can see the sun, moon and stars and clouds when they look up is "sky", because the earth is round, so people can see the sun, moon and stars when they have it, so the mountain rent saying that the sky is round is a confirmation of the earth's circle. Because the earth is spherical, the heavens are also spherical. In ancient times, people did not call the place where water gathered "earth", but called it rivers, lakes and seas.

"Land" simply refers to the land on which a person can stand. Secondly, "square" does not refer to "square", but refers to "boundary", and the land with boundaries is called "place".

The "earth" is only round and round, as it refers only to the land on which a person can stand. Secondly, "square" does not refer to "square", but refers to "bordered", and the land with boundary is called "local cavity plum".

1. The sky is round.

2. According to the shape of the moon and the sun, the ancients determined that the earth is also a spherical body;

3. Magellan's first voyage determined that the earth is a sphere;

4. The satellites launched by humans take pictures in space, which confirms that the earth is a sphere.
