The Deeper Reflections Behind Wuhan Pneumonia: What is the Relationship Between Humanity and Nature?

A pneumonia that made Wuhan locked down and the whole country on high alert, this winter break was filled with the gunpowder of zero interest. The pneumonia originated in the Wuhan Aquatic Products Market, the virus came from bats, the culprit of the 1999 SARS was initially considered to be raccoon dogs, and finally found that it came from the Lingnan region of China's chrysanthemum bats

Bats are the second largest group of mammals after rodents. They are a class of mammals that have evolved true flying ability. There are currently 19 families and 185 genera and 961 species worldwide, except for some islands in the polar and offshore regions, they are distributed all over the world. Bats can fly, although they don't have feathers and wings like birds, their flight ability is weaker than that of birds, but their forelimbs are highly developed, and a thin and hairy membrane extends from the last bone of the fingers to the bone of the humerus, along the side of the body and the hind limb and tail, forming a bat's unique flying organ - wings. Based on this unique flying method, bats have become the mammals in the sky

It is said that the origin of the coronavirus came from someone eating bat raw meat, in simple terms, eating bats, it is said that in a season of wilderness survival, Bear roasted bats for 4 hours to prevent them from being raw, usually Bear would roast animals until they were crispy, except for bats, which he roasted and ate after baking

According to Wuhan's lockdown, there have been nearly half a month, the diagnosis number from the initial 444 to now 14423, every day the diagnosis number is increasing, while the cure number is less than four hundred, the death number is about 300, looking at this 300 number may not be shocking, but these 300 people relate to 300 families, some of them are the pillars of the family, some may not have enjoyed family reunion, some may not have seen the world, ... In total, this is 300 lives, 300 people who were swept in without knowing it, they could have been at home with their families, they could have spent a lot of time watching the world, but now, they are cold in their bodies, their families have not come out of the shadow of losing loved ones, this reminds me of the writing used in the past, 'Echoes of grief'Some people have a bright family light and gather together, some kneel in front of the shrine to say goodbye to the deceased, some places have celebrations, some fall into hell...

Pneumonia latest developments

As early as the Warring States period, the Warring States philosopher Zhuangzi's 'Taoist Philosophy' said: 'Heaven, earth and I coexist, while all things and I are one;'And Lao Tzu's 'Tao Te Ching' said: 'Things are mixed and formed, they came into being before heaven and earth, and the Tao is their mother.' 'Heaven' is silent and majestic, independent and unchanging, it rotates without ceasing, it does not damage anything, it can be used as the mother of heaven and earth. I don't know its name, so I call it 'Tao', and I call it 'Grand Way', 'Grand Way' is called 'Passing', 'Passing' is called 'Distance', 'Distance' is called 'Return', 'Return' is called 'Farther', 'Farther' is called 'Reverse', 'Reverse' is called 'Distant'. Therefore, 'Tao' is great, heaven is great, earth is great, and humans are great. There are four major realms in the domain, and humans live in one of them. Human follows the earth, earth follows heaven, heaven follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature.

Tao Te Ching

Human follows the earth, earth follows heaven, heaven follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature. These few sentences are the most mysterious. 'Following' is translated as 'emulating', which is also correct. 'Following' refers to the rules and regulations. The rules and regulations followed by humans are determined by the earth, because humans live on earth, they must follow the rules and regulations of the earth. 'Earth' is ruled by what rules and regulations? That is heaven, rain, wind and clouds, day and night, earth follows heaven unconditionally. Then, what rules and regulations does 'Heaven' follow? That is 'Tao', as mentioned at the beginning, 'Things are mixed and formed', 'Things are mixed and formed' are the same as 'Tao', they are the mother of heaven and earth. 'Heaven' follows 'Tao', and 'Tao' follows nature.

Our ancestors left behind the legend of the Great diverting the waters, although it was diverting waters, it was not against heaven, it was to change the river course, to dredge the channel, to follow the water flow

Ancient Chinese culture teaches us to follow the Tao and nature, and taking a look at the past few years, have humans reflected on their behavior, whether they respect nature, and whether they can harmonize with nature. Are humans really the masters of the earth, or should we consider the relationship between us and the earth, is it exploitation or guardianship?

With the development of technology, humans achieved the dream of traveling 1000 miles a day, without pills, they could fly to the moon, our medical progress made the ability to change fate not a dream, countless people have walked out of the gate of hell and been saved, we can go to nine countries and nine seas, we can be thousands of miles apart as if we are close to each other. We are proud of the progress of science, but the plague hit people hard, without an effective drug, we relied on antibiotics, the cure was finally achieved because of the rise of temperature and the arrival of the summer climate, the virus disappeared. Ultimately, it was nature forgiving us once, Ebola virus in recent years has also stirred up the world, until now, people are still at a loss, are humans really the masters of this earth, or should we consider what kind of relationship we have with the earth, is it exploitation or guardianship?

Plague disinfection

Ebola virus

Viruses and microbes have existed for nearly 3.4 billion years, they are distributed in every corner of the world, but we cannot see them with the naked eye, so we think viruses do not exist!

However, we humans have only been separated from the ape people for 700,000 years, and only about 10,000 years since the agricultural society, compared to 3.4 billion years, who has the right to exist? We should respect which habitat?

We humans are just a very equal and humble existence among the countless lives. In addition to considering human ethics, we also need to consider the ethics of the entire nature. Only in this way can people and nature harmonize, instead of ending up in the earth without a home.

I firmly believe that the Chinese nation has existed for thousands of years, it has gone through countless guests, it has also experienced countless invaders, finally, all of them were defeated by us. This plague is no exception, I wish all the people who rushed to the front line to return safely, God bless Wuhan, let's go together!
