Content Summary

Why is the Big Six Kings called Liuren? For example, “Liu Ren Shisi” said that there are ten heavenly stems, why Liuren took the word “Wang”, because the king is the Yang water of the heavenly stem, and the first water of the sky is taken as the beginning of easy numbering. The king also sent the branch to Hai, which belongs to the Qian Palace, and the Qian hexagram is the head of the Yi hexagram, so it is named Ren, which symbolizes the beginning of heaven and earth. The author believes that: Chapter 8 of Lao Tzu’s “Tao Te Ching” “The most virtuous person is like water. Water is good for all things, and does not fight; it deals with the evil of everyone, so it is more like Tao. Living in a good place, with a good heart, with good benevolence, and good faith, Good governance, good deeds, and good times. Husbands only do not fight, so there is no preference.” This passage says that water is the closest to Tao and is the best. So the big Liuren was named “Ren”, the king of water. It is because the predictive function of the Big Six Kings is closest to the Tao, and is most in line with the Tao (everything in the universe). Among the ten heavenly stems, Renshui is the largest, and it is called Yangshui, hence the name. The name six is taken from the three talents of heaven, earth and man, and heaven, earth and man are divided into yin and yang, which is the number of six. Therefore, Daliuren can measure the sky (cosmic winds, clouds, thunderstorms, etc.), the earth (mountains, rivers, trees, geographical environment, etc.), and people (ie, daily things, soldiers, ghosts and gods, etc.), in short. Everything in the universe is included.
