How long can a person live? The Book of Changes suggested to the world thousands of years ago that we should pay attention to two age groups.

"Life is short, eat, drink and be merry." This is the attitude of many contemporary young people. Life is so short, so everyone should seize the time, enjoy it, and don't regret it before death.

Although this is a relatively indulgent attitude, it can also be seen that people are unwilling to give up life. After all, in this world of flowers and flowers, everyone has too much persistence, reluctant to part with the people they love, and reluctant to part with their jobs and women. So people have too many regrets, life is too short, and they can only leave helpless "eat, drink and be merry".

Facing the short-lived dilemma, how can we live longer? Do you want to go to the sports hospital for physical examination every day, or do you want to practice Tai Ji Chuan every day? I believe many people are confused about this.

As for how long people can live, the Book of Changes has calculated it for us. In fact, life is just one thing. As long as you pay attention to two ages, longevity is not a problem. So what does the Book of Changes tell us? This article will discuss with you.

First, the longevity of the ancients.

Speaking of life span, in that feudal era, in fact, the life span of the ancients was much lower than now. The average life expectancy of modern people can reach 60 or 70 years, while the average life expectancy of the ancients is extremely low. They are probably less than 40 years old. The main reasons are the destruction of war, malnutrition, hunger and disease.

So theoretically, the life span of the ancients was much shorter than that of the present, so the ancients were more persistent in life than the present. For example, according to historical records, Qin Shihuang once sent Xu Fu to look for an elixir of life. Because of his persistence in immortality, he was cheated by these swindlers four times. One of the most famous is Xu Fu's voyages to the Western Ocean, and he was an alchemist in Lishankeng. Qin Shihuang's persistence in life can be seen.

But in fact, no matter how hard these monarchs try and practice folk remedies, they have no effect. When they should die, they will die. None of Qin Shihuang's people lived to 100 years old.

In fact, according to the existing scientific and technological analysis, we will find that the meaning of life lies not in the elixir, but in the ability of cell division. Theoretically, a cell divides about fifty times, and the cycle of each division is 2.5 years. Therefore, in the most ideal state, a person's life span is about 150 years old, which is the limit of human beings and seems to be a threshold.

As for the longevity technology of modern scientific research, its goal is to focus on cell telomeres, because it is said that the length of cell telomeres affects the number of cell divisions. But for now, the problem of life has not been solved.

Then the problem is coming. What are the records in the Book of Changes?

Second, the Book of Changes

The Book of Changes, as the crystallization of the wisdom of our ancestors, once represented the highest academic achievements of our ancients and exported them abroad. I remember someone once quipped that there must be two books in the German family, one is the Tao Te Ching and the other is the Book of Changes, which shows that foreigners recognize China culture.

Moreover, The Book of Changes really played a great role in the history of China. As historians feel, the results of the Book of Changes are all-encompassing, and different people have developed different people. People like Liu Ji and Yao read the Book of Changes, but people like Chang Yuchun and Xu Da read the Book of Changes and the Art of War. A book can cover everything, and everyone can get great benefits. This shows the mystery of this book.

Moreover, this book also records the life span of human beings. Its original text is as follows: "In ancient times, there were people who knew the law, yin and yang were in harmony, and several strokes were in harmony. They eat and drink regularly, live regularly, and don't work rashly, so they can live with God to the end of their lives, and they live to 100 years old. "

To put it simply, the ancients taught the people to harmonize yin and yang and to follow mathematics. We should keep normal working hours and reasonable eating habits, and then we can live to 100 without any worries.

Therefore, as early as ancient times, our ancestors believed that it was normal to stay in a reasonable state and live to be 100 years old. Moreover, according to the discussion of some scholars, the ancients thought that one hundred years old was a very important number, the ups and downs of life had been felt, and the essence of human beings had been exhausted. A hundred years old is the best time to face death calmly.

If you continue to live, you will die of old age and become a thief. It can be seen that the principle of the Book of Changes is very interesting, telling us that a person is at his best when he is 100 years old.

In addition, the Book of Changes also mentions the Dugua and the Gengua, which represent seven and eight respectively. In Yin and Yang gossip, seven represents girls and eight represents boys. In fact, there is some truth in life.

If you have read the Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic, you will find that it records that the female cycle is seven years. Therefore, from a woman's point of view, the Book of Changes is also looming. Women will take seven years as a cycle, gradually reach the peak, and then decline.

Theoretically speaking, the most prosperous period for women is 21 and 28. This period is the best period for women's physiology, and then it will gradually decline, and it will basically fall into aging after 49 years old.

Three, two important times

Of course, in addition to these ways to prolong life, the Book of Changes also mentioned two very important figures, which were quoted by Empress Dowager Cixi in the process of moving towards * * *. Simply put: seventy-three, eighty-four, the prince went uninvited.

I remember that in real historical records, Empress Dowager Cixi and Yuan Shikai were preparing for constitutional reform. As a result, the life span of Empress Dowager Cixi at that time may end in these two age stages. Therefore, the preparatory constitutionalism was abruptly pushed for twelve years, which led to the despair of China's reform process.

Similarly, in a person's life, these two age stages are also particularly dangerous. Like the famous Kong Old Master Q, he died at the age of 73, which is heartless. On the other hand, Meng died at the age of 80, and a generation of ranger scholars fell. So I ching is very reasonable. Seventy-three and eighty-four are the most vulnerable periods of the human body. If you are not careful, you will fall on the road to death.

Therefore, all the old people in this period must be careful, don't indulge themselves at will, keep a normal mentality and enjoy Du Jie.

If we can cross these two thresholds, generally speaking, it is still possible for people to live to one hundred or even one hundred and ten years old. But in fact, because ancient people did not have a stable environment, it was difficult for them to cross these two thresholds. In modern society, the pace of people's life is getting faster and faster, and the content of life is getting more and more, so if you want to cross these two thresholds, you are also facing many challenges of self-discipline.

But in theory, as long as we learn the Book of Changes and then master these important key points, then we can live a long life. Moreover, the Book of Changes clearly tells us that maintaining normal physiological functions and living to 100 years old is a natural death, which we can learn from.

Therefore, in this life, there is not only carpe diem, but also a kind of self-cultivation. Life is precious, and it is good to live for a long time, but at the same time, we should also pay attention to the fact that the longevity of life lies not in our own will, but in the normal operation of our bodies.

Therefore, no matter what you do, you should focus on health. After all, your health is the capital of the revolution. If you are tired, then everything has nothing to do with us.

In addition, we need to pay attention to the fact that life must live longer and more meaningfully at the same time. To live longer is not to linger, but to enjoy life better and do more valuable things. Therefore, we should combine the length of life with the meaning of life to make our life more valuable and happier, so that we can live longer and die without regret.

As for human medical research, if we want to solve the problem of cell telomere, and even want to live forever, in all fairness, it has nothing to do with us, not only because the technical cycle is too long for us to see, but also because living forever is really not necessarily a good thing. So according to the Book of Changes, I lived to be a hundred years old and left without regret.

From this incident, we can know that the Book of Changes contains life wisdom and has great guiding significance to our lives. The Book of Changes is the source of China culture and the book of answers to life questions!

Many people used to think that the Book of Changes was a fortune-telling book. Later, people gradually discovered that the Book of Changes has thoroughly explained all kinds of truths in the world. Reading the Book of Changes is equivalent to reading life, and you are no longer confused in the process of life.

The Book of Changes is about the laws between heaven and earth, and it is a study of the encounter between heaven and man. The Book of Changes has been circulated for thousands of years. There are many scholars who have studied it deeply, which is very remarkable. However, no one has ever been able to learn and solve all the problems, but some people who learn the Book of Changes are more likely to succeed.

When we are alive, we should really take time to look at the Book of Changes and feel the wisdom inside. It can teach us how to act according to the law, make the right choice and make our life prosperous.

Nowadays, businessmen, politicians, scholars and parents are faced with many strange problems, but all of them can find solutions in this book.

On the basis of respecting the original work, the illustrated Book of Changes translates the classical Chinese that everyone can't understand into plain vernacular, so that you can easily understand it even if you can't understand the classical Chinese.

Most importantly, it graphically explains the wisdom behind each of the 64 hexagrams.

More importantly, the wisdom of the Book of Changes can be easily applied to our lives, workplaces and businesses to help us succeed.

From the explanations of the five elements, heavenly stems, earthly branches, Taiji and gossip to the introduction of images, figures and theories in the Book of Changes, we can appreciate the wisdom of the ancients.

Combining with practical examples, I tell you how to analyze the problem and turn the obscure and boring content in the Book of Changes into something that everyone can understand, learn and use, which really benefits me endlessly.

Applying the wisdom learned from the Book of Changes to our lives will further promote our success!
