Zeng Shiliang: My brother Ceng Shiqiang.

Text/Professor Zeng's younger brother Professor Zeng Shiliang

▽

This time I came to Zeng's house and became my brother's third brother.

In sixty-eight years, my brother never gave up on me and took care of me. My brother and I are inseparable.

I have mixed feelings about writing about my brother's life, and I don't know where to start.

My younger brother was born in the year of Bingzi, Xiao Shu, and spent his childhood in Zhangzhou. Grandfather Ji Luangong used to be the chief construction officer of Longxi County, and turned to practice medicine, which is famous for helping the world. Grandpa has five children, seven daughters, and his brother is his eldest grandson, so he is naturally pampered.

My brother has been very clever since he was a child. He skipped primary school and went to Grade 25. My father was ordered to go to Hua 'an Preparatory Middle School, and my brother skipped the first grade of junior high school.

1949, my parents came to Taiwan Province with my brother, sister and second brother. The following year, my brother entered Xinying Nanguang Middle School to be a senior one.

/kloc-in the autumn of 0/953, my brother was admitted to the Department of Industrial Education of Normal University (now Taiwan Province Normal University). My brother lived a full and happy life for four years at public expense.

Professor Mou Zongsan, who teaches philosophy, Professor Zhang Qijun, who teaches Laozi, and Professor Luo Fulin, who teaches printing, all have a great influence on my brother. Professor Chen Zhiping from the Chinese Department and Professor Liang Shiqiu from the English Department have improved the humanistic atmosphere on campus, as well as the higher humanistic quality of senior brothers.

After graduating from college, I went back to Xinying High School to teach for a year, and then flew to Penghu as a reserve officer. This year, I used my vacation time to tutor the commander, the son of General Hu Zongnan. Later, Hu Weizhen was appointed as the representative on the Star, and invited his senior brother to give a speech on the Star.

My late father was a famous educator. He wrote several books in those years, some of which were copied by my brother, and some even trained my brother to write, which was deliberately carved.

My brother was appointed as the headmaster of a middle school at the age of 28. As young and promising, many schools are still vying for the internet.

At the age of thirty-nine, my third year as secretary of Pingtung Agricultural College was a turning point in my brother's life.

16, seven years of workplace experience, proud of the wind, setbacks and obstacles are inevitable, one day I went home to visit my parents, my late father put forward a point:

"Go to the third floor and get some books of the I ching to read! 」

My late father was addicted to books, and the third floor it built was a library with nearly 10,000 books. He was sweating like a pig.

Our five children have enjoyed the elegance of sunbathing in winter since childhood, and of course they have read a lot of fun while sunbathing.

My late father usually bought four books, one for my brother, one for me and one for my sister. In the early days, I squeezed money from my meager monthly salary to buy books. The whole family lives together, so it is unnecessary and impossible to buy four books.

It turned out that my brother had six or seven books related to the Book of Changes, so he went upstairs and picked out a dozen books to take back.

Three months later, I opened a column on "China Management" in Economic Daily.

Five months later, the SME Department invited senior students to hold a series of lectures, which received enthusiastic response. Invitations from major enterprises continue, and large management consulting companies compete to arrange courses. "Chinese Management" was very popular and all the rage, and my brother became the most famous management expert.

Senior Brother has held more than 3,000 lectures in Taiwan Province Province, and tens of thousands of private enterprises have participated in senior brother's management and leadership courses, including TSMC, Uni-President Group, Evergreen Group and Quanta Computer.

At the same time, Brother has published 40 or 50 monographs such as China Economic Power Management, China Management Idea, China People's Management Behavior, Chinese Management, and Justice Management. Paper is expensive in Luoyang, which also makes all circles respect their brothers as "the father of management in China" and "the master of management in China".

Chinese-style management advocated by Brother A has three main axes: people-oriented, combined with Taoist thought and changing with time. These three axes are the truth revealed by the Book of Changes, so Chinese management has long existed.

There is no doubt that the sages and wise kings of all ages have great reputations in history, and they all know the samadhi of the Book of Changes. In fact, I ching is more than samadhi. More than thirty? It is enough for ordinary people to know one or two.

1990, Ashong was invited to the University of Science and Technology of China to give a lecture on "Chinese management" in the Master of Science in Decision Management program jointly organized by China and the United States. Later, the students in this class went to public office, all of them were handy and successful, and of course they were promoted step by step.

In June, 2007, Lecture Room broadcasted Ashong's The Book of Changes and Life, which created the highest ratings and made Ashong popular all over the country.

In 2008, Hu Xueyan's Revelation was broadcast, and after innovation, fifteen episodes of The Mystery of the Book of Changes were recorded. Starting with the crude concepts of infinity, Tai Chi, Yin and Yang, Four Elephants, Eight Diagrams and Sixty-four Guas, I gradually stripped the mystery of the Book of Changes.

While recording, my brother wrote two masterpieces, The Mystery of the Book of Changes and The Wisdom of the Book of Changes, which sold 2 million copies, ranking first in the best-selling charts.

At this time, an endless stream of invitations came from all over the country, and some even went directly to Beijing to queue up. However, my brother has an amazing move: thank you for most of the invitations.

My brother wants to teach China Taoist culture to more Chinese descendants while the iron is hot. He made a list of scheduled CDs, and intended to work hard to finish them as soon as possible.

This list is dazzling:

Explain in detail the sixty-four hexagrams and 170 episodes of the Book of Changes.

Comment on the Romance of the Three Kingdoms 168,

Explain in detail the 8 1 chapter 100 episode of Tao Te Ching.

The Analects of Confucius contains 160 episodes of life wisdom,

There are filial piety, universities, the characteristics of China culture, ancient emperors and four military advisers, and so on. , 1000 episodes.

20 12 10 completed the record of 64 hexagrams and 170 episodes in Detailed Interpretation of the Book of Changes. All the members of the production team were nervous and meticulous for three years and released instantly. Loud firecrackers can't hide the laughter of all the members.

Brother, after dinner, go back to the hotel and tell the producer:

"It's nice to celebrate, but don't set off so many firecrackers in the future. The space in Beijing is already very poor! 」

According to the inheritance of Yi-ology, the literary and artistic goals of the Han Dynasty are: to be more saint and to learn from the past. That is to say, it took 3,500 years for Confucius, Fu, and three sages to achieve brilliant achievements.

After Confucius, in every era, many people with lofty ideals continued to study and develop.

But after more than two thousand years, there are still too many people who can't understand, understand and understand. Although full of enthusiasm, but also have to look forward to and sigh, and this "beginning of the league" passed by.

Because Brother A tried his best to "write clearly" the essence of the Book of Changes, he touched thousands of "Fan Zeng" in Qian Qian and paid close attention to it all the time.

More than 130 disciples in the inheritance class formally paid their respects to their teachers in imperial academy, Peking and the Confucius Temple in Taipei.

As the saying goes, "One day as a teacher, a lifetime as a father", in 20 16, my brother was unwell and returned to Taiwan by charter flight, and entered three cases. His disciples flew in from the other side in batches to visit his teacher and pray for him.

Three more people came to Taiwan in turn to accompany them, and their visas expired two weeks later, which impressed the three chief medical staff.

On 20 18 1 1 month1/day, my brother died.

Sick in bed for two years, I still miss the inheritance and promotion of Taoist culture in China. I also hope that the affiliated school of Luofushan National College will grow sturdily and develop sustainably, guide endless students to understand China Taoist culture and reap endless benefits.

On October 3rd, 2020, I opened Facebook and saw six poems:

Once gave birth to the holy gate of Kunlun Mountain, the official yin and yang were strong and weak, and the strength of yin and yang was Tai Chi. The immortal rises to the sun, and his name is Jiangshangfeng. The teacher's purpose is in accordance with God's will, and the essay shows predestination.

I didn't know the poet was Zhang, but I passed it on to several people who were destined to share this information.

Everything is God's will. On June 1 1, when I first met Zhang Xie Yichuang, president of the Chinese Orthodox Cultural Society, I realized that the president had visited my brother's house in Taipei five years ago and had a good talk.

Some people only do what they like, some people know justice and do what they should do, and very few people do what God entrusts, which is what we call "coming with a mission".

My brother is, and so is President Zhang Chuang. We can communicate with each other on another frequency.

My brother has done a lot of things entrusted by God. His modern interpretation of China orthodox culture, especially the Book of Changes, can be described as not fulfilling his mission, and Long Ze has been widely accepted.

Now that my senior brother has passed away by providence, President Zhang Chuang has more coordination work to do. All the predecessors and brothers of China Taoist Culture Association have the responsibility to take the lead.
