Time to look back on the lost heart, dawn.

 Time to look back on the lost heart, dawn.



'The gentleman nurtures his body with a calm mind and cultivates virtue through frugality.'


​


The first virtues to be taken care of in life are receiving and virtue, and the basis for this is the quietness of the mind and the frugality of life. You need to control your mind to become a monk, and frugality can only become a habit when you become accustomed to it.


​


The insight, which is the symbol of Zhuge Liang, came from this equanimity, not from an unusual chisel or flashy writing.


Insight refers to 'the ability to see the truth beneath the surface'. Because Zhuge Liang was able to control his mind, he gained insight and was able to create surprising results in a chaotic battlefield without being swayed.



What Zhuge Liang delivered next was learning.


He said, "You cannot develop your talents without learning, and you cannot achieve academics without a will."


It is difficult to achieve big dreams without a solid foundation of knowledge. Zhuge Liang was also a scholar who was well versed in the Confucianism, Law, and Taoism at the time before being an outstanding administrator or strategist. The various studies he honed since childhood became the basis for his becoming a soldier.



If he is lazy, he cannot study precisely, and if he is rough and impatient, he cannot rule his character.


Age runs with time, meaning goes with the sun, and when it finally dries up and withers, there is no way to turn back the lamentations in poor places.


Zhuge Liang teaches that in order to study properly, one must be free from indolence and impatience.


It is difficult for a person with a lazy personality to study deeply, and for a person who is impatient, it is difficult to achieve good character.



The first thing to do in order to control your mind is to acknowledge the weakness of your own mind.


There are many diseases in the heart, and the heart does not listen to me well. When you face and acknowledge your limitations, you can not neglect to restore your heart.




The dawn, when life is revived, is a good time to look back on the lost heart during the day and night.


If you wake up at dawn like that every day and set aside time to reflect on yourself, your heart will become stronger little by little.




Adults need a cave to protect themselves from the poison of the years that accumulates every day.


The dawn, waking up alone and looking back at the beginning and end of the day, becomes a cave of its own.

Fatigue society, excess of positivity, dialectic of positivity.

 Fatigue society, excess of positivity, dialectic of positivity. ​ ​ ​ Each age has its own disease. For example, there is an era that can be said to be bacterial. But this era came to an end, at least with the invention of antibiotics. The beginning of the 21st century can be defined pathologically as neither bacterial nor viral, but rather neurotic. It is an infarct disease, not a contagious disease, and it is a disease caused by an excess of positivity, not the negativity of the immunological other. Therefore, it is by no means governed by immunological techniques aimed at defeating the negativity of others. ​ The last century was the immunological age. In other words, it was an era in which clear boundaries were drawn between the inside and the outside, friends and enemies, and me and others. The essence of immunological behavior is aggression and defense. There is a certain blindness in the essence of these immunological devices that have taken over the entire society from the...

The Truth of Perspectiveism, Maturana.

 The Truth of Perspectiveism, Maturana. "The observer is the source of all things. Without the observer nothing exists. The observer is the basis of all knowledge. The basis of all claims concerning man himself, the world and the universe. The extinction of the observer is the It will mean an end and annihilation, for there will be no one left to perceive, speak, describe or explain." - <<From Being to Doing>> Maturana ​ Someone is watching something. Marurana says this is a fundamental starting point. The person develops a world of his own as he sees it as an observer. If the other person exists as an observer, then the other person's world exists, and as an observer, the world that that person sees also exists. ​ The philosopher Nietzsche, before Maturana, described this as perspectives. If the term perspectives is difficult to describe, you can borrow the term from Maturana and call it 'observers. ​ ​ Snakes are creatures of a different world from human...

active reading.

 active reading. We know more about the world than we used to, and you may still think that knowledge is essential to understanding something. But knowledge is no longer as essential for understanding as one-sided thinking. You don't have to 'know' everything about something to 'understand' it. Too much information can actually be an obstacle to understanding something. The present age is overflowing with facts that prevent us from understanding the correct appearance of things due to a lot of information. ​ One of the most active projects of some of the best intellectuals today is to unite views from an intellectual standpoint. Through the Internet, television, radio, and magazines, people are provided with well-organized resources, from clever persuasion to carefully curated information and statistics, to make 'decisions' with little effort. But with effective packaging, viewers, listeners, and readers are sometimes unable to make their own decisions. As i...
