The second meaning of the Eight Diagrams in the Book of Changes: What does the Eight Diagrams represent

周易八卦含义之二：八卦坤卦代表什么

Kun Gua means to be virtuous and to be virtuous. With virtue, there is a blessing.

-----Zhuge Changqing

What is the divination of the Eight Diagrams of the Book of Changes?

Zhuge Changqing said: Fuxi ancestors called "heaven" "dry" and "earth" "kun".

So "heaven and earth" is also called "heaven and earth".

In life, people often say: self-improvement and virtue.

What do you mean? Zhuge Changqing said: This is the education of our ancestors to our future generations. It reminds us to strive for self-improvement as the sky does, to carry things with virtue as the earth does, and to do more good deeds.

Zhou Yi predicted that the sky, the earth and the personnel were measured in the middle. But our forefather was very intelligent. He was afraid that we would always focus on prediction. Therefore, it is most important to remind future generations that "work hard and do good".

"The genealogy biography" said: "Good without accumulation is not enough to become famous, and evil without accumulation is not enough to destroy the body. The villain regards small good as useless, and the small evil as harmless, and the small evil as not to go. Therefore, the accumulation of evil can not be covered up. The sin is large but cannot be solved."

A family that accumulates good will have aftereffects, and a family that accumulates bad will have aftereffects.

The old ancestor hoped that our descendants could work hard, do good deeds and accumulate virtue, and be rich and lucky.

Our ancestors are so great that they always think about us, our descendants, and earnestly teach us.

The Chinese people should always be grateful to their ancestors.

Usually, people will notice some words about Kun Gua.

For example, the highest heaven and earth, the birth of all things, is obedient to heaven. The earth is thick and loaded, and the morality is boundless. It is grand and magnificent, and its products are Xianheng. The terrain is vast; A gentleman carries things with virtue.

So, in life, why call your father heaven and your mother earth?

Why remind men to be strong and women to be gentle?

Why does Kun Gua represent the southwest when divining? On behalf of the land, on behalf of the gentle character?

Zhuge Changqing said, "This should start with all things represented by the Kun Gua itself.".

The Book of Changes of Plum Blossoms, written by Shao Yong, a contemporary Chinese scholar of changes, expounds the basic meaning of the Kun hexagram (the eight hexagrams belong to all things):

坤卦，就是厚德载物，就是让人行善积德。有了德，就有了福报。

----- 诸葛长青

    周易八卦的坤卦是什么？
   诸葛长青曰：伏羲祖先把“天”叫做“乾”，把“地”叫做“坤”。
   所以“天地”，又叫做“乾坤”。
   生活中，人们常说：自强不息、厚德载物。
   什么意思呢？诸葛长青曰：这是老祖宗对我们后代的教育，提醒我们像天一样自强不息、努力奋斗，像大地一样厚德载物、多做善事。

   周易预测，上测天、下测地、中间测人事。但是我们的祖宗十分有智慧，他怕我们总是把注意力放在预测上，所以，提醒后代子孙，“努力奋斗，行善积德”是最重要的。

   《系辞传》中说：“善不积不足以成名，恶不积不足以灭身。小人以小善为无益，而弗为也，以小恶为无伤，而弗去也。故恶积而不可掩。罪大而不可解。”
   积善之家必有余庆，积不善之家必有余殃。
   老祖宗希望我们后代能够努力奋斗，行善积德，富贵吉祥。
   老祖宗太伟大了，始终惦记着我们这些后代咨子孙，谆谆教导。
   中华儿女要永远感恩老祖宗啊。
   平时大家会注意到一些关于坤卦的词语。

   譬如：至哉坤元，万物资生，乃顺承天。坤厚载物，德合无疆。含弘光大，品物咸亨。 地势坤；君子以厚德载物。
   那么，生活中，为什么把父亲叫做天，把母亲叫做地？

   为什么提醒男人要刚强、女人要温柔？

    为什么占卜的时候，坤卦代表西南？代表土地、代表性格柔和.......？
   诸葛长青曰，这就要从坤卦的本身代表的万事万物说起。
    我国代易学家邵雍所著《梅花易数》阐述了坤卦的基本含义（八卦万物属类）：
