Thirty-Six Eight-Diagram Arrays: The Array of Destiny

Xuefeng

The occurrence, development, transition, and extinction of everything and every phenomenon in the world all have a destiny.

The Earth’s year is 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes, and 46 seconds. This is a destiny.

The mass of the Sun is 1.989 × 10^27 tons, the mass of the Earth is approximately 9.89 × 10^21 tons, and the mass of the Moon is about 7.35 × 10^22 tons. These are also destiny.

A person has two eyes, one mouth, one head, and two legs. The human body has 206 bones, and the heart beats 2.5 to 3 billion times in a lifetime. The normal pH of the human body is 7.35 to 7.45, and the normal body temperature averages between 36 and 37 degrees Celsius (underarm). Normal blood pressure is 140 mmHg (18.6 kPa) systolic and 90 mmHg (12 kPa) diastolic. There is a specific size, quantity, and distance ratio between each organ in the human body. These are all destinies.

Everything has a limit. Exceeding the limit will cause a qualitative change, or in other words, everything has a certain proportion or degree, and exceeding that proportion or degree will inevitably lead to the opposite. When water is poured into a container, there is definitely a moment when it is full. When eating, there is always a moment when you cannot eat anymore. A camel can only carry a certain weight. Beyond the maximum load, “a straw can break the camel’s back.” A metal rod is very hard, but if continuously struck at a certain fixed point, it will eventually break.

Everything has a destiny; this is the law of the universe.

Regarding human life, the same law of everything having a destiny also applies. The number of teeth a person should have, the number of hairs, the number of sweat glands are all destinies. When a person is born, when teeth grow, when puberty starts, when aging begins, when death occurs, these are all destinies.

It takes 21 days for a chicken to hatch eggs, and humans give birth after ten months of pregnancy. This is a destiny.

We know weather forecasts can predict the weather. This itself proves that everything has a destiny. If there were no destinies, it would be impossible to forecast the weather for the next few days, even impossible for a few hours. Throughout human history, some people have been able to predict the future changes of the world, which also proves that everything has a destiny.

Before the discovery of some chemical elements, Mendeleev arranged the periodic table of elements and predicted the existence of other elements that had not yet been discovered. This means that everything has a destiny, a law, and a rule. So, how long a person can live in their lifetime, what diseases they will get, when they will get better or worse, what kind of people they will meet in their lifetime, what conflicts they will have with others, what blessings and sufferings they will experience, what kind of hardships they will endure, and even what kind of work they will do, are all destinies that cannot be escaped. This is also the truth summarized by the ancients: “What is meant to be will always find a way, what is not meant to be cannot be forced.”

Giving everything a certain destiny allows them to grow, decline, change, and transit within a certain destiny, thus maintaining the orderly operation of the world, which is the destiny array.

Without the destiny array, the Earth would run out of the solar system, tigers would grow wings, mice would be bigger than cows, people could drink the Pacific Ocean in one gulp, some people would live for tens of thousands of years on Earth, and seasons would not change periodically.

The destiny array is a constraint. Confining everything within a certain range, proportion, or degree is the function, value, and significance of the destiny array.

If one does not escape the destiny array, as a human, they will inevitably continue to cycle within a certain domain of life.

So, how can one escape the destiny array?

Grafting apples onto cold-resistant pear trees produced apple pears. A common iron rod becomes magnetic and directional after magnetization. Ordinary iron, when carbon is added (carbonization), becomes alloy steel, greatly improving its strength, hardness, toughness, and plasticity. Saccharin and sweet wine, chestnuts and duck meat, persimmons and crabs, shrimp shells and red dates combined into food become toxic. Morphine, derived from the opium poppy, reacts with acetic anhydride to undergo esterification, resulting in the formation of its diacetyl derivative, which is the notorious drug heroin.

When the nature of things changes, their destinies change accordingly.

The key to escaping the destiny array is to replace human consciousness with celestial consciousness. After the replacement, the destinies as a human end, and the destinies as a celestial being begin.
