What does Tianquan preach mean?

In his later years, Wang Yangming taught the definitive "Four Sentences Teaching", namely: there is no good and no disgusting body, there are good and malicious movements, knowing good and knowing evil is conscience, and doing evil for good is a character. Due to the different understandings of the Four Sentences Teaching, Wang Yangming's high-foot Wang Ji (Ruzhong) and Qian Dehong had a dispute, so there was a public case of "Tianquan Enlightenment":

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, Dehong and Ji visited Zhang Yuanchong Zhouzhong, because the theory was the purpose of learning. Ji said: "Mr. said that knowing good and knowing evil is conscience, and doing evil for good is a thing, but this is probably not the end of the story."

Dehong said, 'What is it? Ki said:

Since the mind and body are neither good nor evil, the mind is also neither good nor evil, knowledge is also neither good nor evil, and things are also neither good nor evil. If it is said that there is good and evil in the mind, after all, the mind is not free of good and evil. Dehong said

The mind and body used to have no good and no evil, but now I have been used to it for a long time, and I feel that there is good and evil in the mind and body, and to eliminate evil for good is the kung fu of the body. If you see that the ontology is like this, you can only say that there is no kung fu to use, and I am afraid that you will only see the ears. Ki said:

Mr. Tomorrow will leave, and you can go in with you in the evening. 'It's day and night, the guests are scattered, Mr. will enter, Wen Hong and Ji Hou will stand in court, Mr. will come back, and move to Tianquan Bridge. Dehongju and Ki argued, please ask.

The gentleman said: "I was about to ask this question!" I will do it today, and there is no argument among my friends about this, and the views of the two gentlemen are just right to take each other, and they should not get sick with each other.

You must use Dehong Kung Fu, and Dehong must penetrate the body of Ruzhong. The two gentlemen take each other as benefits, and I have nothing to learn. 'Dehong, excuse me.

The gentleman said, 'There is only you, and the essence of conscience is nothing, and the essence is just too empty.' In the void, the sun, moon and stars, wind and rain, dew and thunder, haze and hunger, what is not there?

And what thing can be an obstacle to the void? The same is true of the human heart itself. It's too void and formless, and once it disappears, why bother a little effort?

Dehong Kung Fu needs to be like this, that is, it is in harmony with the ontological Kung Fu. 'Ki, excuse me. Mr. said:

Seeing this, Ruzhong had no choice but to cultivate himself silently, and could not cling to others. Those who are rooted in the world are also rare to find. As soon as you understand the ontology, you can see the kung fu, the inside and outside of the object, all together, this Yanzi and Mingdao dare not take it, how can it be easy to look at people?

The second gentleman has said to the scholar later, we must follow my four purposes: no good and no evil is the body of the mind, there is good and evil is the movement of the will, knowing good and knowing evil is conscience, and doing evil for good is the object. In this way, self-cultivation leads to the holy throne; In this way, there is no mistake.

Ji said: 'After the ontology is penetrated, what is the purpose of these four sentences? Mr. said:

This is a thorough statement, from the beginning to the saint, only this effort. Beginners use this, step by step, although the most saint, exhaustive research. Yao and Shun Jing are just like that.

The gentleman also instructed again: 'The second gentleman shall not change these four sentences of purpose in the future. In these four sentences, everyone follows up and down.

I have been teaching for many years, and I have made it a few times, and now I have established these four sentences. Since the human heart has knowledge, it has been stained by customs, and now we do not teach it to practice good and evil in conscience, but only to think of an ontology in the air, and everything is not true. This illness is not a small one, and it must be explained early.

It is Rihong and Ki provinces. ”

There are three kinds of answers:

Tianquan preached the Tao, and it was Tianquan who was the one who obtained the Tao.

There is also a possibility that Tianquan is a place name! And where you preach?

The third is to explain that the content of the sermon is good! It's like a heavenly spring!

Oh my bad!
