The practice of the guqin

Charming and delicate, graceful, swaying in the wind, it seems that you can still smell the faint fragrance,

In "Dream of Red Mansions", Lin Daiyu described the coordination of playing the piano environment and inner preparation. There is a passage: "The piano is forbidden. The ancients ordered it to govern the body, cultivate the temperament, suppress its lust, and eliminate its luxury. If you want to play the piano, you must choose a quiet room, either on the top of the floor, in the forest, on the top of the mountain, or on the water cliff. When the sky and earth are peaceful, the wind is clear and the moon is bright, burning incense and sitting quietly, and the mind is not over. Only when the qi and blood are peaceful can you combine with the spirit and the Tao be wonderful. Therefore, the ancients said: It is difficult to meet a soulmate. If you don’t have a soulmate, you would rather face it alone.

The breeze and bright moon, the bright pines and strange rocks, wild apes and old cranes, can only be used to express interest to the piano. There is another layer, and the fingering method and sound are good. If you need to play the piano, you must first dress neatly, or have crane cloaks or deep clothes, just like the ancients' appearance, so that you can be called a saint's instrument. Then wash your hands, burn incense, then put your body next to the couch, place the piano on the table, sit in the fifth emblem, and raise your hands calmly, so that your body and mind are both upright. You must also know how to be light, slow, relaxed, and respect your body."

The ideal environment for playing the piano is to burn incense, calm the mind, purify the body, cleanse the hands, and calm down your heart. It is very leisurely and confident, calm and composed, harmonious with the world, neither fast nor slow, the whole body is harmonious, and is connected with the Taihe Qi in the universe. The posture of playing the piano is somewhat similar to the posture of meditation, focusing on the eyes, nose, heart, Dantian below the heart, and breathing evenly. Sitting upright in front of the fifth emblem of the piano, putting your hands on the strings, blending the inner strings of the heart with the strings of the guqin; the breath of the piano player

, temperament, thoughts, and the musical fun and thoughts you want to convey... Through the contact and retention of the strings and the body of the hand, the musical phrases show an extraordinary artistic conception between the virtual and the real, seeking the sounds outside the strings and the fun, and experiencing the wonderful fun of the soul and the strings. You can experience the fun of the music with your own hands. From this we can see that the way of cultivating one's body and nature is in line with the "Tao" of heaven and earth, and the principle of the generation of all things in the universe. If you examine and learn carefully, you will be able to deeply understand and understand the essence.

In the "Xishan Qinkuan" item: "When you have not pressed the string, you should first soothe the air, clear the heart, slow down the level, and stay away from the spirit. From the silence of all the sounds, the sound is quiet, and the sound is sparse, as if it were a vast outline. As ancient times, you can enjoy the strings, keep the climate on the strings, and then come down to coordinate the rhythm."

In "Xishan Qinkuan": "Recalling the most holy ancient times, the heart is connected with nature, virtue is in harmony with the gods, and the temperament of the whole body is to regulate the temperament of the people in the world. Therefore, it is made into a zither, and it is important to be harmonious. At the beginning of harmony, first use the correct rhythm to adjust the strings, look for the sound of the emblem, distinguish it in the fingers, and judge it in listening. This is what is called harmony and harmony."

The "right" of the strings of the right tune has the meaning of ending in one, and the "right tune" emphasizes not the Huangzhong tune...; it requires the piano player to play the piano with correct mind and mindfulness. The tune should be tuned into the five positive notes, with the heart string as the main and the string as the auxiliary. In the tune, the piano sound is naturally adjusted to the positive notation, and the physical and mental state is adjusted from the resonance of the five positive notes, the piano and the sound are harmonious, and the meaning is different.

"Flirting" is to observe whether the sound of the five positive sounds has reached harmony with nature; and listen to whether the frequency of the string vibration during tuning is consistent with the correct heart and intention of the spirit.

From this we can see that before playing the piano, you need to be upright in virtue, correct in mind, and correct in mind, so that you can reach the state of harmony between man and god while playing the piano.

Three, conclusion

China's "guqin" has the meaning of cultivating oneself and cultivating one's nature, educating the world, understanding the virtues of gods, and combining the harmony of heaven and earth. Guqin contains the harmony of man and nature, the universe view, life view and moral view of the unity of man and nature; with the change of time and space, "qin Tao" and "qin virtue" are still the standards for those who play the piano to take in their hearts as self-required standards. If everyone can value virtue and do good, the whole society will naturally show a stable and harmonious style, such as the Zhou Dynasty's civil and military rule, the Tang Dynasty's Zhenguan rule, the Qing Dynasty's Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong prosperity...; the return of people's hearts to be good is a blessing for all living beings.
