Collection of Ci Ci·Chapter 4·Full Text
Author:
"Yi" is consistent with heaven and earth, so it can understand the way of heaven and earth.
Looking up to observe astronomy, looking down to observe geography, this is why we know the dim light;
The original is the end, so we know the theory of death and life; essence is the thing, and the wandering soul is the change, so we know the mood of ghosts and gods.
It is similar to the heaven and the earth, so it does not violate it; it knows all things around it, and the Tao helps the world, so it cannot do anything; it walks sideways and does not flow, it is happy and knows destiny, so it does not worry; it is peaceful and benevolent, so it can love. The scope of heaven and earth is transformed without being overtaken, the tune is transformed into all things without being left behind, and it can be understood through the way of day and night. Therefore, the gods have no formula and the "Yi" has no body.
