The sages say: Chinese characters were made by the divine. Atheists say: that is superstition, nonsense. When someone takes the structure of a character and compares it with the facts it matches, some say it is far-fetched and some say it is coincidence. Yet the coincidences between Chinese characters and the facts are simply too many. The wise see wisdom and the foolish see folly; how anyone wants to see it is their own freedom. No one forces anyone, and certainly no one should lock people up and brainwash them as the evil Party does. If you don’t believe it, read it as a story; perhaps it will add a little fun to your leisure after meals, or perhaps it will leave a lingering aftertaste and whet your appetite.
One day I was watching New Tang Dynasty Television, and among the subtitles on the screen was a large traditional character 選 (xuǎn, “to choose, elect”). This 選 contains the character 共 (gòng), and it gave my nerves a jolt: the ancients created characters with great rigor and reason; they could never have just thrown a few strokes together at random. Why put a 共 inside? Could it be, as the Chinese Communist Party (中共) says, that the Chinese people chose the evil Party? If the Chinese people really did choose the evil Party (in essence, the CCP kidnapped the Chinese people), and the ancients’ creation of characters already prophesied the appearance of today’s evil Party in China, then what are the gains and losses of choosing it — could the meaning of this character fail to indicate that? As soon as this thought arose, from I know not where came inspiration, as if wisdom had opened up: the two 巳 above the 共 look, in form, just like two little snakes, glaring greedily, heads raised and necks stretched, their ferocity fully exposed.
What does the character 巳 (sì) mean? In the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches commonly used in China, 巳 is the sixth of the twelve Earthly Branches; its phase among the Five Phases is fire, its color red, its zodiac animal the snake. In Christianity and in Western civilization, the snake symbolizes temptation and the devil. In fact, in all upright paths and upright religions of cultivation, the snake is also a symbol of the devil… So when the ancients created this character, they were telling us that to choose the CCP is to choose temptation and the devil. Moreover, 巳 (sì) and 死 (sǐ, “death”) sound alike: to choose the CCP is to choose death.
Then what do the two 巳 foretell? The CCP has always proclaimed that it believes in Marxism-Leninism. Marx was the originator and concocter of the evil doctrine of Marxism-Leninism, and Lenin its practitioner — one Ma, one Lie (Marx and Lenin in Chinese), two demons standing side by side at the head, bringing calamity to the human world. Isn’t this the implied meaning of those two 巳?
Now take 巽 (xùn) out on its own: it is the trigram of the Eight Trigrams for the southeast of China. Why does it, too, contain a 共?
Thinking it over carefully: in the beginning, the CCP rose in China’s southeast — Shanghai, Jiangxi, the Jinggang Mountains — exactly matching the direction of 巽 among the Eight Trigrams.
Ah, how profound! A single character created by the ancients reaches across time and space to expose the harm today’s evil Party does to humanity! No wonder some say every Chinese character is a book from heaven — truly mysterious and wonderful. In creating this character 選, the ancients were not only telling us that in the Dharma-ending period of the last age an evil Party would appear in China; more importantly, they were telling us that it is a demon bringing calamity to the human world.
This in turn made me think of several other characters, one of which is 骗 (piàn, “to deceive”).
In my article “The Devil’s Snare” I once discussed the meaning of the structure of 骗. Let me repeat it here: 骗 has a left-right structure, 马 (mǎ, “horse”) on one side and 扁 (biǎn) on the other. The first character of Marx’s name (here I mean only the name Chinese people commonly use, 马克思, Ma-ke-si), 马, is exactly the left side of 骗. The right side of 骗 is 扁, and 扁 sounds like 编 (biān, “to fabricate”). Doesn’t the left-right structure of 骗 imply that Marx fabricated a set of evil doctrines to deceive people? Is it divine intent? Is it coincidence? Why isn’t the left side 犬 (“dog”)? Why not 羊 (“sheep”)? Why must it be 马? Did the ancients know long ago that a great swindler named Marx would appear in the world, and did they have something in mind when creating the character? I will not comment on that here. But history has proved that Marx was indeed a great swindler, fitting exactly the meaning of 骗. It was this great swindler who fabricated a complete set of evil doctrines and concocted a seemingly “seamless” great snare that deceived humanity for an entire century; and the CCP, armed with it, subjected the Chinese people to even more brutal ravages.
Let us talk about the character 共. Taken on its own, 共 has no derogatory meaning. Combined with 同 it becomes 共同 (“together”), which is neutral: doing good things together is of course commendatory, and doing bad things together is derogatory. Yet when the ancients created characters, wherever they applied it to the evil Party, it was derogatory. In the space-time of the universe, the celestial eye of the ancient sage Cangjie was open; he had already looked across time and space and seen that an evil Party would appear on Chinese soil to bring calamity to the human world, and in creating characters he tirelessly embedded this thing in the structures of certain derogatory characters. We can give many examples. Look at the traditional character 異 (异, yì, “strange, deviant”): a top-bottom structure, 田 above and 共 below, makes 異. 田 can be said to be land, or the field of the heart. Isn’t this clearly telling us that when an evil Party appears on the land, it is something deviant?! When the evil Party seeks to communize (共) the people’s land, it mutates humanity; when someone conceives the thought of communizing the people’s land, he is no longer truly human but a beast-man who takes the monkey as his ancestor (because it still has human form, I call it a beast-man).
Rice 米 is such a good thing! In the traditional character 糞 (“dung”), 米 plus 異 makes 糞; in the simplified character, 米 above and 共 below still makes 粪 (fèn, “dung”).
The character 暴 (bào) of 暴力 (“violence”) has 日 above and 水 below, with a 共 embedded in the middle. 日 is fire, so it is fire above and water below — the hexagram Wei Ji (Before Completion, fire over water), an inauspicious hexagram. The implied meaning is clear: the character 暴 is closely bound up with the CCP. The divine — or, one might say, the ancients — knew long ago that the CCP would be something that carries out violent revolution and would bring disaster to humanity. How could the ancients of several thousand years ago have known that in the 20th century a Communist Party that carries out violent revolution would appear on earth? If not divine intent, what else could explain it? Is this an accidental coincidence?
Chinese characters told us long ago that the CCP is a demon — in the traditional characters, and in the simplified characters too. Recently there was an article online about the simplified character 导 (dǎo, “to guide, lead”). On top of this 导 is again a 巳. As said above, 巳 is the red snake, which Westerners call the red dragon, and which in the Book of Revelation in the Bible symbolizes the CCP. With the snake demon at the head, where can it lead people? Doesn’t this show that the culture of present human society is using the devil’s theories to lead people step by step down the demonic path and into the fire pit? Originally, the traditional character 導 created by the ancients had 道 (dào, “the Way”) on top. The ancients were telling us that people must follow something, that following needs a standard, and that this standard is the Dao. What is the Dao? The Daoist school speaks of Truthfulness, the Buddhist school of Compassion, and Falun Dafa speaks of Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance (Zhen-Shan-Ren) — this is the way of cultivation, which is higher than the human; and there is also the way of being human: benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, trustworthiness, loyalty, filial piety and integrity. Beyond these are crooked and evil ways, which do not belong to the category of the Dao; here I call them evil paths and crooked roads: struggle, killing, violence, scheming against one another, deception; atheism; the law of the jungle, the survival of the fittest… The sages have us follow the righteous Fa and the righteous Way, while the Communist Party wants us to walk an evil and crooked road.
Just look at school education, online media and so on in today’s CCP society, and we find that orthodox, traditional and kind cultural ideas are criticized, while what is promoted is the Marxist-Leninist ideas of struggle, possession, the law of the jungle and seizing wealth by trickery and force. The publicity and business philosophies of every trade and profession are either money or pornography — all matching the simplified character 导.
From 导 one also thinks of 进 (jìn, “to advance”). The traditional form of 进 is 進: getting better and better as one goes, gradually entering a fine state (佳境) — that is 進. But the simplified 进 implies leading people to walk into a well (井). From the changes in these two characters we find that it is precisely today’s deviant culture that is step by step destroying China’s traditional divinely imparted culture, mutating and corrupting the morality of the Chinese people: there is no official who is not corrupt, and businesspeople fake goods everywhere. Look at the land of China today: the sky is no longer bright, the water no longer clear, and people’s hearts have turned bad. There is a principle in the world: whatever has gone bad must be eliminated; when people’s hearts go bad on such a large scale, disaster comes. The CCP has, in a planned and purposeful way, led the Chinese people toward evil. Even more serious, today it persecutes Falun Gong and has set its powerful propaganda machine in motion to spread rumors about Falun Dafa and about the Master of Dafa, poisoning billions of people and leading them into a state from which they can never recover.
The evil Party often shouts “long live” (万岁, “ten thousand years”) to itself, but look at what the two characters 万岁 are. 万 is made of 一 and 刀 (“knife”); 岁 is made of 夕 below 山 (“mountain”). The implied meaning of “Long live the evil Party” is that a Communist Party that wants to live ten thousand years is in fact a gang of bandits holding up big knives below the mountain: they themselves would live ten thousand years, yet put others in a place of death from which there is no recovery (in fact, it is the one that will go to hell first). This also fulfills what is prophesied in the Book of Revelation in the Bible: all who receive the mark of the red dragon beast (swearing allegiance to the CCP), whether great, middling or small, will, when the Great Judgment comes, drink the poisoned wine of God’s wrath and sink into hell, never to be reborn (paraphrased).
Why do Falun Gong practitioners clarify the truth? In fact it is to save people, not to engage in politics: they want people to see clearly that the CCP is a demon, to distance themselves from the CCP, to withdraw from the Party, the Youth League and the Young Pioneers, and to remember that Falun Dafa is good — then they will surely turn misfortune into good fortune and meet good luck in the face of disaster.
Some may say that Chinese characters are just things the ancients or people today thought up at random; when the characters were first created, people could not possibly have thought so far ahead, and the above is something I have forced onto them. That is not surprising. Under the poison of the CCP’s atheism, and with orthodox historical culture a desert to them, people often block off with the word “superstition” the phenomena that cannot be seen with the naked eye yet are reflected in our real lives, and no longer think about their deeper meaning. People believe that human thoughts are produced by their own brains, but in fact many come from messages from gods in other dimensions. On 15 July 2015 the People’s News (Renminbao) published a report, “An Incredible Wonder Once Caused a Worldwide Sensation,” which included this passage: a woman named Rosemary Brown became famous for a time for composing some music of master quality. But she said she did not have such great ability; these pieces were written under the guidance of famous deceased composers, and the role she played was merely that of a tape recorder and stenographer. The biography of Edison (Thomas A. Edison, Benefactor of Mankind, by Francis Trevelyan Miller, published 1931), on pages 292 and 293, clearly records: “If I denied the existence of God, I would be blaspheming my knowledge.” The author of the biography also points out that without divine inspiration, without a guiding power, Edison would never have had an extraordinary mind able to see into the mysteries of the material world. Could the ancients’ creation of characters and the CCP’s simplification of Chinese characters also be another form of tape recorder and recorder of messages? Or perhaps the creators of the characters did not have such profound motives at all; it was the intent of gods in other dimensions that entered their minds, while they thought the ideas were their own.
From ancient times to the present, everything has been arranged by heaven. Perhaps this is called a law — the law by which heaven’s arrangements have proceeded step by step to the present day — and this law appeared long ago in Chinese characters.
The ancients had a saying: those who know how to watch see the inner workings; those who don’t, just watch the fun. Unbelievers can find any number of reasons to refute this, which is not surprising — post a notice on all four gates and there will always be some who cannot read. To believe or not to believe is entirely up to you.
