From the animal tongue to the bronze tongue-spitting image to the inability to understand the language, this strange novel is brewed.
This article also involves political issues such as the disintegration of the Soviet Union and the situation in modern China. At the same time, I created a character named Lu Xiang, a Hunan human, to illustrate my interest in language by using him to explain the tongue-spitting monster dug from the Chu tomb.
I invented an archaeological discovery in my novel. An archaeological team in the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization found a female creature’s remains 17 million years ago in the highlands of South America. After this skeleton was buried, the human family would have to decide that it was an animal ape or a human. The biggest difference is that the human spine is upright, but this remains has an upright spine and a little caudal vertebra, which is like a kangaroo’s hind leg and tail to support its body.
This discovery has aroused heated research all over the world, including Ulzbek, an Estonian professor from the Baltic Sea. When he was in Chicago for a seminar on surgery, his left-wing historical materialism recognized it as the earliest maternal remains of human beings. However, this situation was a bit like Xiao Wang’s discovery of a planet by a Turkish astronomer, but no one believed him because he was wearing a Turkish uniform when he published it.
We will find that some external rules in the field of surgery are generally the same as language. It is not to test the correctness of your creative argument, but to test some external structures. Those who have participated in the oral examination of the paper will know that the mind of the oral examination Committee is often the reference material of the paper index rather than the creativity you are most proud of in the paper. This is another absurdity. Everything is very external, including language becoming an external model symbol, which is forgotten at the end of quality.
In the loneliness of lust, I learned that Confucian culture does not encourage loneliness, and this huge orthodoxy actually does not encourage people to make fine rhetoric in language. Confucius said that benevolence is the kindest and noblest morality in life, while a language with too good expression is usually heartless. This sentence has influenced a nation to speak with less expression and a language with a relatively dull expression.
Isn’t that why when we were young, we were often told not to talk casually? When guests came, parents would think that they would be punished if they left, but children didn’t know what identity words were and what identity words were, and finally they became silent.
Language and culture are closely related to rhetoric logic lgs in Greek culture, which is a very important foundation of Greek philosophy. You can see that Plato’s philosophy is dialogue and language dialectics. In western language training, you can see that their congressmen often make people feel amazing when they speak, and then wonder why we legislators don’t behave like this.
Relatively speaking, people are required to speak well more than outsiders, and they should further observe their actions and behaviors. If they don’t match, they will accept it.
East and west are not absolutely good or bad for language training. This is a matter of one’s own language.
Ignore language Confucianism
Ninety schools in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period did not all deny the importance of language. Hui Shi’s famous school said that Greek logic can actually be translated into a famous school, but now we are transliteration experts, saying that a white horse is not a horse. However, now that someone points to a white horse and tells you that it is not a horse, you will feel impatient, but this is the language. From the perspective of language logic, a white horse is two different concepts, and you will feel impatient, then you will be very Confucian.
In Greek culture, the discussion of "white horse is not a horse" is a strict distinction between parts of speech. However, in China, it has become a rhetoric, which makes Confucianism, Taoism, Mohism and other schools famous, but it is difficult to find their classical essays. The fables of "white horse is not a horse’s egg and hair" are all developed by famous schools to discuss the language structure.
Western symbols also discuss the structure of language, and advocate that we should test the compatibility of language before testing ideas. In that case, it must be a mistake. We must first mark the mistakes and then find the symbolic conclusion. Our culture is weak in this respect. You can see that the language of politicians in the West is very chaotic, because they are very particular about language because they may be attacked at any time, but we are not so strict about language. The meaning of language is often ambiguous.
Zhuang Zheli also discussed a well-known conversation with Hui Shi, Zhuang’s good friend. They watched the fish restaurant by the river and said how happy you are to see the fish swimming in the water. Many people will say that today, next to Zhuang, it is a hole that will definitely not benefit. Generally speaking, answering this question is related to language rhetoric symbols, which means that Zhuang’s question will be verified by logic.
I’m afraid that a friend next to you is afraid to speak, but Zhuang replied that I don’t know fish and music unless I know it. He overturned Hui’s inference according to Hui’s logic, and the dialogue that followed was all logical dialectics. In the eyes of Confucian orthodoxy, it was a meaningless dialogue. We can speculate that famous people could expand their words or make up for the neglect of language in Confucian culture.
Confucian culture does not pay attention to language accuracy. Confucian language is close to poetic language, which is a kind of spiritual perception and simplifies language to a very simple state.
Volume 2 Language Loneliness 3
Language limitation
The human language and writing can develop into poetry at one end and legal provisions at the other end. The legal provisions are precise and accurate to block ambiguity. Now the common language such as international law conventions is French, because French is the strictest language in the world in terms of word class definition, while China is the least.
Accuracy is the most vague, but it is very beautiful, often inaccurate, accurate and often not beautiful. No one will say that the six methods are beautiful, but many people agree that the Book of Songs is beautiful.
Kong Lai is not legal. I still remember an article in the Analects that a child’s father stole a sheep. The child confidently sued his father. Kong was quite disapproving. He thought that even his son would sue his father’s meeting, which was not what he longed for, or ethics. However, it was the law for his son to sue his father, and the law was always being done. In the end, there was no extra possibility to prevent it. Kong advocated benevolence, righteousness and morality.
When we Confucianism is the dominant culture, language will inevitably move towards poetry instead of legal provisions. Therefore, Ji Kang was dragged to the execution ground at the age of 40 because he was not obedient to heaven and not to princes. When he was light, he was proud of the world and benefited from being defeated by vulgarity today. His crimes read like a poem. Crimes like this are common in China history. It is possible that three words are not necessary. This is all influenced by China’s lack of laws and language.
It has always been a contradiction to me whether the language should be as accurate as Greek or French, or subconsciously, I am actually happy to subvert the accurate language, because I feel that the accurate language body is a paradox, and our various methods are getting more and more accurate. When the language becomes more and more accurate, it almost has no second ambiguous meaning, the language loses its flexibility, and it will be greatly limited to be a tool for expressing ideas. Writing novels will subvert the possibilities of the language. What do you think should be this way, but not that way?
Ask where the canal can be made clear as the source of living water.
People will ask, isn’t language born of ideas? Should we subvert the language or the language of ideas? It’s so difficult for a child to express himself when he looks at his babbling. This is a form of pre-existing language, but let’s not forget that today our language is so good that we forget the thoughts behind it. I saw people chattering in public and their mouths kept moving. I believe there is no thought behind his language.
Sometimes I am afraid that I will become a language inertia, especially when I teach at the podium. I am particularly afraid of language patterning, just like when I attend a funeral, the master of ceremonies recites a eulogy. I will always understand the last few days of the Republic of China, but I can’t understand it, but the tone is so ups and downs. This is the language patterning. He doesn’t care whether people can understand it or not, but he wants to finish it.
We should all let ourselves escape from the conceptual language and check our own language. Where can we be sure that it is the source of living water? If the language is kept in the state of living water, it will not be dead.
A few days ago, some of my friends got together and people asked me, do you remember when we had a meeting before? I remember that the first one was loyalty, courage and patriotism, and the last one was perseverance and success.
A few people can’t make up twelve rules, which is what we have to read every day because the language and thought are separated from the residual sound after modeling
These sounds have meaning in life.
Hui Neng, the sixth ancestor, subverted the language
We need to subvert the language, make it worthless, and the immortal language must be subverted. Either the Confucian group culture language is the name or the Greek logic is the same symbol, or the logical name becomes the China orthodoxy, and it needs to be subverted. The new generation of language is subverted, and the old generation of language is broken before it can reproduce new meanings.
The unification of the Song Dynasty means that the public text is not a subversion.
The public text can be said to be the development of Buddhism in China’s vernacular. The Tang Dynasty in China has gradually modeled the foreskin including Buddhist scriptures. The Buddhist sayings are no longer seen. People who read Buddhist scriptures are considerable in Bodhisattva’s deep Prajna Paramita. When they look at the five aggregates for a long time, they see all the sufferings. The relic is the same color, and it has been read all the time. There is no emotion in the sound, and it is not exciting to read a Buddhist scripture.
Therefore, Zen Buddhism, a sect that doesn’t believe in language, thinks that language is a misunderstanding, and language will lead to a more absurd and treacherous path of practice. Finally, neither language nor words will turn the righteousness of Buddhism into a simple and easy-to-understand vernacular to promote Buddhism.
Zen Buddhism can be traced back to Sakyamuni Buddha’s smiling story. When Sakyamuni Buddha picked up a flower and gave it to his eldest brother, Jia Ye, without saying a word, he took it to Jia Ye and smiled. After that, his soul mate did not need language. The ancestor of Dharma was the first generation of Zen Buddhism. He came from India to China to practice hard at Shaolin Temple for nine years, not words but deeds.
Penance, silence is a lonely language. He knows what he is looking for. When you are quiet and lonely, your heart language will emerge. When you are not communicating with others, your language will take on another state. No matter whether Zen or western sects are closed, Catholicism calls it a closed ceremony. Participants usually feel sad on the first day. People are going crazy, but it is in this way that Dharma changed the language from an outward behavior to an outward behavior and handed the Buddhism to the second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth ancestors, Hui Neng.
The story of Hui Neng, the fifth ancestor of Hongren and the sixth ancestor of Hongren, is the most exquisite in language, subverting Zen Buddhism. By the time of Hongren, many younger brothers wanted to inherit his mantle and compete for the inheritance of the law. Hongren was very upset when he was looking for a successor. This story was recorded in the altar sutra of the Sixth Ancestor and read like a martial arts novel. Seeing monks competing for the position of the Sixth Ancestor and competing for the leader of the Wulin in the martial arts novel, I think Wuzu would also feel a sense of loneliness in the process of searching, because he could not find a truly enlightened person who could transcend language and writing.
Among many successors, Shen Xiu called for the highest praise. He wrote a song, The Bodhisattva tree is the heart of the mirror, and he always wiped it off frequently. The younger brothers rushed to recite it. After listening to it, they didn’t express their opinions. They continued to let everyone guess this song. In the ears of a master named Hui Neng, a leader of the kitchen, this illiterate man who chopped wood and cooked rice every day had no chance to hear Buddhist scriptures or get in touch with class culture, but he immediately replied that the Bodhisattva tree mirror was not a platform to make dust in one place. If he was afraid of being dirty, he would practice.
The significance of practice lies in
The fifth ancestor heard Hui Neng’s silence and verbally said nonsense. Then he knocked three times on Hui Neng’s head and left with his hand behind his back. The story developed into a myth here. Hui Neng actually understood the meaning of the fifth ancestor because he was knocked three times. It should be noted that the only language here is nonsense, and everything else is behavior.
Hui Neng went to knock on Wuzu Hongrenmen in the middle of the night, and Wuzu told him to sit down and read the Diamond Sutra to him, because the most important thing of Dharma is that the Diamond Sutra should be read and his heart should be born. When he didn’t remember it, he could be born with compassion. When Hui Neng, a bold leader, still told Hongren, I got it. You didn’t talk about Wuzu, so I immediately gave him the cassock and told him to escape immediately and be hunted down. Wuzu told him not to even bring his robe if necessary. Later, Hui Neng became a new teacher in Huangmei, Guangdong.
