Many people know about the custom and origin of the summer solstice, but how many people know about the story and its significance? Today, let Xiaobian popularize this knowledge to everyone.
The 10th solar term of the 24 solar terms in the summer solstice enters the festival from June 21 to 22 of the Gregorian calendar, when the sun reaches the Yellow longitude 90 & deg;, the position of the direct ground reaches the northernmost end of the year, almost the direct Tropic of cancer. The summer solstice is the earliest solar term among the 24 solar terms. As early as the 7th century B.C., our ancestors determined the summer solstice by measuring the sun's shadow in the guise. Summer is the largest and the most extreme, where everything grows and flourishes to the extreme and Yang reaches the extreme. It is the shortest night and longest day in the northern hemisphere.
The summer solstice is the turning point of direct sunlight on the earth. After this day, it will take a 'turning back'. The direct sunlight point will gradually move south, and the days in the northern hemisphere will gradually become shorter. After the summer solstice, the height of the sun began to decrease day by day.
In ancient China, the summer solstice was divided into three periods: 'the first one was antlers; the second one was cicadas; the third one was Pinellia. '
The summer solstice is the most poetic day of the year. If you can't see your shadow following you when you stand on the land at 23 ° 26 north latitude, it must be the summer solstice. On the day of the summer solstice, the sun almost points directly at the Tropic of cancer, which is in the form of direct rays at noon. People living on the Tropic of cancer and its southern vicinity can set up a pole in the sun at noon around the summer solstice to observe how "instant effect" can become "instant effect".
In the summer solstice, the idiom "instant effect" does not hold up because of natural phenomena. Life, open and aboveboard, no 'shadow', fearless also, integrity cast!
Summer solstice, give people the greatest wisdom enlightenment, when it is' fearless without shadow '.
'it's said that you are loyal to the green mountains, that the fire is the real gold, that the waves are rough and you don't flow, that the wind is clear and the moon isn't stained with dust, that one heart is clear and the sun and the moon are bright, that one cavity is full of vitality, and that the clouds are flying in disorder, and that you are ready to use your knife & hellip; & hellip;' every time you listen to the theme song "great hero" of the TV drama "Marshal Peng Dehuai", your eyes are always filled with tears. "Who dares to fight with the sword? I'm the only general Peng!" this is Mao Zedong's highest praise for the great hero.
From Marshal Peng Dehuai, the six words of "loyalty, cleanness and responsibility" of the Communists can be best reflected. "Loyalty" comes from faith, "cleanliness" comes from self-cultivation, "responsibility" not only needs the support of firm faith, the purpose of serving the people wholeheartedly and perseverance, but also cannot be separated from the clean life and character. A person who is not clean is not qualified to bear. Only those who stand up to the sky, are open and aboveboard, and have capital between heaven and earth, can be qualified and dare to bear more. A wall stands on a thousand feet, and when there is no desire, there is no strength. Selfless and fearless.
Here, lust free and selfless means that there should be no non separation of thoughts, indulgence in greed, do not fake the public for private interests, harm others for self-interest, etc. reasonable life demands and legitimate personal interests are advocated and protected. Shadowless "shadow" refers to the dark side of life, specifically, bad deeds, even illegal behaviors.
Nowadays, when a tiger or a fly is detained and other information is released to the world, while people clap their hands, some people will be restless, even scared. Obviously, such people are people who have been 'infected' with 'tigers' or' flies'. They have either been in cahoots or colluded with each other, or they sleep with cats, act as' protective umbrella ', or they are directly' partners', etc., so they always worry about being exposed and involved. A corrupt man once confessed after the crime: "in the past, when he heard the siren, he was frightened and often woke up in the middle of the night, scared and sweated.". '
To be fearless, we need to be fearless, which is called "fearless". Those who revere heaven and earth are worthy of heaven, while those who revere the Dharma abide by the bottom line, discipline and law, and do things cleanly. Pure and clean people have no "shadow" in their hearts, but they are fearless, dare to take responsibility and dare to face life directly.
Ask the canal to be clear so that there is a source of water. Integrity lies in virtue and integrity lies in ambition. Integrity is fearless, justice is selfless. It's as thin as a daisy, and as cheap as a plum without fear of cold. Songzhumei, three friends in the cold; honest and clear, three officials; spirit, three treasures of human. The law is right, the heart of heaven is smooth, the officials are clean and the people are safe. There are gods on the head three feet, and a piece of ice heart is in the jade pot. I'll go to the sky in a cool way, so as not to make Lu Yan's words short and long.
When a man is famous, a wild goose is famous; when he loves beauty, everyone has it. Everyone should take good care of his own feathers, be pure and white, and do things cleanly.
Happiness is the best. This place of peace is my hometown. Peace of mind is peace of mind. Only a clean person can have peace of mind. Look up in the blue sky, boat line in the mirror; Penglai is not far away, just about to sail. To be a clean person, to do no 'shadow' things, life has its own poetry, there are distant & hellip; & hellip;
The solar term summer solstice is a life of integrity. Like the sun, fearless.
