中文解读：
天来小子所言的“三在3presence-时now presence·空here presence·人me presence”在这里不仅仅指的是儒家《大学》中的三条修养路径——明德、亲民、止于至善，而是赋予了它更深刻的哲学和宇宙意义。“三在”不仅是道德和社会层面的实践，也涵盖了活在当下的玄妙哲学，结合了道家和儒家的智慧，以天时、地利、人和为背景，呈现了一种宇宙和个人内外和谐的状态。
-
明德：活在当下的此时——南朱雀的月窟时
- 明德，在此象征着人内在德行的光辉。这里的“此时”指的是活在当下的瞬间。南朱雀（在天象学中是四象之一，代表火与南方）是一个具有象征意义的存在，指的是明德之光普照天下。月窟则是月亮的隐秘所在，象征着深邃的智慧与内在的光辉。在这一时刻，“明德”就是活在当下、洞察内心、感知宇宙的智慧和力量。
-
亲民：活在当下的此地——北玄武的天根处
- 亲民是指通过自我修养和道德光辉，服务于人民、造福社会。这里的“此地”是指活在当下的“此地”，即我们身处的空间与现实。北玄武代表的是四象中的水和北方，象征着包容、稳定和支持。天根处，指的是连接天地的根本之地，这个位置象征着与天命的连接、与天地的和谐。活在当下的亲民，就是要在此时此地，立足现实，实践道德，以行动去影响和服务他人。
-
止于至善：活在当下的此人——中麒麟的时空点
- 止于至善是儒家追求的道德至高境界，在此处被延伸为活在当下的最终目标，即达至完美与和谐的状态。“此人”指的是个体，通过修身、齐家、治国，最终实现个人的至善。中麒麟象征着极致的智慧与超凡的品行，时空点则代表每个瞬间与空间的交汇，体现了道家思想中的“无为而治”与“天人合一”。活在当下的止于至善就是指在每一个当下时刻，都能做出最具智慧与和谐的选择，达成与宇宙的契合与完美。
English Interpretation:
What "The Child from Heaven" (天来小子) is conveying with the concept of “Three Presence: time (now presence)-space (here presence) -person (me presence)” is not merely about the three principles of Confucianism in the "Great Learning" (明德, 亲民, 止于至善), but rather an elevation of these concepts into a profound philosophy that intertwines both living in the present moment and universal cosmic principles. By blending Taoist, Confucian, and metaphysical ideas, the three principles are expanded to cover not only moral and social cultivation but also the realization of one’s presence in the universe at the precise moment of now.
-
Illuminating Virtue (明德): Living in the Present - At the moment of the Southern Vermilion Bird's Moon Palace
- Illuminating Virtue (明德) here symbolizes the inner brilliance of virtue. The "moment" refers to living fully in the present, at this exact instant. The Southern Vermilion Bird is one of the Four Symbols in Chinese cosmology, representing fire and the south, symbolizing the light of virtue that spreads across the world. The Moon Palace suggests a deep, hidden wisdom, where virtue is cultivated in the inner sanctum. In this moment, Illuminating Virtue is about being fully present in the now, understanding one's inner nature, and perceiving the wisdom and power of the universe.
-
Benefiting the People (亲民): Living in the Present - At the Northern Black Tortoise’s Root of Heaven
- Benefiting the People (亲民) means extending one's cultivation and virtue to serve the people and create societal harmony. The "place" here refers to living in the present moment and the space we inhabit. The Northern Black Tortoise, representing water and the north in Chinese cosmology, symbolizes stability, support, and protection. The Root of Heaven is a metaphor for the foundational connection between the heavens and the earth, symbolizing alignment with the natural order and the Tao. Living in the present as Benefiting the People means actively contributing to society and others by living in the here and now, applying virtue to help others in practical ways.
-
Reaching Perfection (止于至善): Living in the Present - At the Moment of the Central Qilin’s Spacetime Point
- Reaching Perfection (止于至善) is the final state of moral excellence in Confucianism. Here, it is extended to symbolize the ultimate state of living in the present—the achievement of perfect harmony and goodness in every moment. The Central Qilin represents a legendary being symbolizing ultimate wisdom and perfect conduct, a perfect alignment of the self with the universe. The spacetime point represents the intersection of each individual moment and space, echoing Taoist concepts of wu wei (effortless action) and oneness with the cosmos. Living in the present as Reaching Perfection means making the wisest and most harmonious decisions in every moment, achieving alignment with the universe and perfection in every instant.
Conclusion:
The "Three In" as interpreted by "The Child from Heaven" not only reflects the practical Confucian ideals of Illuminating Virtue, Benefiting the People, and Reaching Perfection but also incorporates a deeper metaphysical understanding of living in the present moment. It connects the principles with cosmic elements (South Vermilion Bird, Northern Black Tortoise, Central Qilin), suggesting that true moral cultivation and societal harmony can only be achieved when one is fully aligned with the present moment, the universe, and the highest virtues. This integration of Confucian ethics and Taoist wisdom shows the profoundness of "living in the now" while practicing the highest ideals of personal and societal harmony.
This fusion of Chinese philosophy into a living, present-focused practice offers a transformative path to holistic well-being and cosmic alignment.
