What is the myth of "the essence of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon"?

It means all kinds of energy between heaven and earth, the energy radiated by the sun and the moon.

This sentence comes from the original text of Chapter 43 of Tao Te Ching: The world is the softest, and the cultivation of internal strength is qi-oriented, and the aura of heaven and earth is absorbed in yourself.

The aura of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon, is the energy that people and any living thing need to survive from the Taoist point of view. Some traditional training methods are refining qi, refining spirit, refining qi and eliminating deficiency, among which the essence is the essence of grain, that is, the energy provided by food. After the grain is broken, the aura of heaven and earth and the essence of the sun and the moon are adopted. From this we know that the aura of heaven and earth and the essence of the sun and the moon are both energy.

Extended data:

"Reiki" is the spirit of heaven and earth. In Lingshu, it is pointed out that "Qi is the spirit of heaven and earth and the essence of all things".

Life is between heaven and earth, and the spirit of heaven and earth is today, stars, moon, gold, wood, water, fire and earth. If the spirit of heaven and earth is adopted, it should be done every day, at noon, at noon and at four o'clock. The factors are that the sun is born, the Taiyin is born at noon, and the qi is stronger than the hair and full of the qi, so the yin and yang are integrated, especially the qi is full. However, apart from these four seasons, if you do it at will, there will be no benefit. There should be no noise and noise where you need to work.

The aura of heaven and earth is the aura of everything, just like the aura of people. People's gas field will change with their mental outlook and health, and so will heaven and earth. If human beings are insatiable and don't know how to cherish it, they will destroy nature, the climate will deteriorate, and the artificial large-scale civil buildings and the laws of natural circulation will weaken the gas field. Heaven and earth, like sick people, have weakened their aura.

The ancients said, "The immortal absorbs the aura of heaven and earth and gathers the essence of the sun and the moon in order to live a long life." In fact, this sentence is well-founded. The so-called "heaven and earth are nothing but gas fields" refers to the weather (air) and the earth's atmosphere. The weather is sunny, and the ground gas is cloudy. Everything is formed by the interaction between weather and atmosphere. Su Wen's theory of yin-yang correspondence says: "The weather is connected with the lungs, and the earth-qi is connected with phlegm." .

One legend is that ...

According to legend, at the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, Lao Zi rode a green cow from Luoyang to Hanguguan. The satrap of Hanguguan, Yin, loves Taoism on weekdays and has quite a Taoist origin. Before I came, I looked at the stars and the air, and saw a purple air coming from the east, so he guessed that someone would really come.

When Lao Zi rode an ox through the customs, Yin decided that Lao Zi was a real person. This is the story of "Purple Gas Coming from the East". Later generations used "purple gas coming from the east" to express good luck.

After I stayed in Hangu, I saw Yin's kindness and pure temperament, so I took its essence and wrote a book for Yin, named Tao Te Ching.

After the Tao Te Ching was written, Lao Tzu said to Yin, "I gave you the Tao Te Ching, which is divided into two parts. The first part is the Tao Te Ching, which talks about the root of the universe, including the opportunity of the change of heaven and earth, and the secret of the perfection of ghosts and gods; The next chapter is the Classic of Virtue, which is a way of dealing with the world, including the art of advancing and retreating, the way of longevity and the way of learning. Study hard, practice hard and finally achieve something! " Say, Lao tze drifted away.

In the Sanqing Hall of many Taoist temples, there are three gods: Jade Qing, Qinglingbao and Taiqing Morality. Among them, the statue of the old gentleman in Taishang lives on the right side of the original god, holding a cattail leaf fan and living in the fairyland of Taiqing in Rhoda paradise, which is one of the "highest gods in Taoism".

Yang Guo's Lao Zi legend is divided into two parts. The first part describes the growth process of Laozi from childhood to old age. The second part is about the legend of Laozi and Tianjing Palace. Strong mythical color and cordial local oral description describe the legendary life of Laozi.

These beautiful stories reflect Yang Guo's profound cultural accumulation, inherit Laozi's thoughts, and prove the historical origin of Laozi's birthplace from another side.

The legends of Laozi have been handed down from generation to generation in Yang Guo, and most of them are circulated in local languages, which are popular and beautiful and have high literary research value. Collecting, excavating and protecting these folk stories is of great significance to textual research of Lao Zi's birthplace, promotion of Taoist culture and inheritance of Lao Zi's thoughts.
