What is Tai Chi?

Taiji is a process to clarify the universe from infinity to Taiji, and even the metaplasia of everything. Infinity is the Tao, which is more primitive and ultimate than Tai Chi, and the two devices are the yin and yang devices of Tai Chi. The word Tai Chi first appeared in Yi Zhuan Ci.

The concept of Tai Chi

The origin of nouns

00 Taiji is an important concept in the history of China's thought, which was first seen in Yi Zhuan: "It is easy to have Taiji, which is the birth of two instruments. Two instruments give birth to four elephants, and four elephants give birth to gossip. " Have a very close connection with gossip.

At the end of 00 East Weekend, Yi Ci Zhuan (unearthed from Mawangdui in the Western Han Dynasty) recorded that "the ancient fu is the king of the world, looking up at the image in the sky, looking down at the underground method, and the products of birds and animals are suitable for the ground, close to the body, far away from everything, so it starts to gossip". This meaning can easily become a hexagram. First of all, Tai Chi, yarrow has not yet started to separate. There are four possible images of two hexagrams, which are called four images. Add one to each of them and it will become gossip. The following is the process of drawing gossip. At first, it was related to astronomy, meteorology and regional direction, and later it was further explained by Neo-Confucianism in the Song Dynasty in a philosophical way.

Tai Ji Chuan was called "Long Boxing", "Cotton Circle", "Thirteen Potential" and "Soft Hand" in the early days. During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, Wang Zongyue, a native of Shanxi, wrote an article on Taiji Zhuan before determining the name of Taiji Zhuan. The word "Tai Chi" comes from Zhouyi. Cohesion: "It is easy to have Tai Chi, which is to give birth to two instruments." It contains supreme, extreme, absolute and unique meanings. [ 1]

Taoist taiji

Taiji in Taoism generally refers to the most primitive order state of the universe, which appeared after the chaotic period (infinity) in which yin and yang were indistinguishable, and then formed the origin of everything (the universe). Zhuangzi and Yi Zhuan used the concept of Taiji earlier, which was generally used in cosmology and methodology. In China's ancient books, Yi has always been a philosophical work that exhausts the mysteries of heaven and earth. The analysis of divination process is basically an overview of the development of heaven and earth. Taiji gives birth to two devices, which is the process of Taiji's differentiation to form heaven and earth. Two instruments are heaven and earth, as well as yin and yang. The concept of Taiji often appears together with Yi-ology. Taoist Yi-ology has its own unique system, and the concept of Taiji is an important basic concept of Taoist Yi-ology, including cosmology, religious cultivation and witchcraft.

Tai Chi means 00 1. The word "Tai Chi" means "the center of space" in classical Chinese.

00 represents the ancient people's abstract understanding of the post-Big Bang state in China. According to modern science, about 654.38+0.35 billion years ago, infinite chaos began to stir. Unknown substances collide with each other, and the collision makes the unknown substances magnetic. Magnetism makes unknown substances attract each other and keep gathering together.

The unknown substances that gather together collide with each other constantly, and the collision causes the unknown substances to produce high temperature. The volume and temperature are constantly increasing, the volume is getting bigger and bigger, and the temperature is getting higher and higher. Finally, the temperature and volume reached the limit, and an unprecedented "big bang" occurred. In BIGBANG, under the interaction force, most of the extremely high-temperature substances are pushed out instantly, forming a huge empty space, which is called "too empty" by ancient sages in classical Chinese. "Too empty" is what modern people call "space". "Space" refers to an extremely huge empty space. In this space, you can already tell up and down, left and right, front and back. Ancient sages called it "the front, back, left, right and up" or "the universe".

00 BIGBANG, under the interaction force, a small amount of high-temperature substances were squeezed in the center of the explosion. This center point is also the center point of "Taixu", which was called "Tai Chi" by ancient sages in classical Chinese.

In "Tai Chi", substances constantly collide with each other and attract each other, resulting in high temperature and luminescence. It is the source of everything and the "sun" on which we live. The universe has changed from a chaotic state without a central point to a space with a central point, which ancient sages called "infinite Tai Chi".
