trip to the United States

Because my daughter is studying and working in the United States，I have visited relatives many times in the United States。When I went to visit relatives for the first time in September 2003，I was invited to visit and visit and academic exchanges at several universities in eastern United States，I have the opportunity to conduct in -depth professional discussions with those in the United States，It is helpful for my later research work。

2000，My daughter Zhao Meizhen went to Da Musi University in Hampshire to study，I met Professor Ailan at the school's East Asian Research Institute shortly after gone。Professor Ailan said she has come to China many times to inspect，and met me in Sanxingdui，Therefore, I hope I can talk about Samsung Dou in college。With this opportunity to visit relatives，Professor Ailan received us on the town next to school。Meet a meeting，She said with great interest in the international academic seminar "Jingzhou Guojian Bamboo Slip" held in 1998。

Professor Ailan enthusiastically promotes communication among scholars from various countries，I have applied for a fund to the Roche Foundation，Used to hold a series of academic conferences in the United States and China，Discussion in China ’s pre -Qin bamboo slips and related issues。June 1998，They first held an international academic seminar at the "Jingzhou Guodian Bamboo Slip" at the University of Da Musi，Experts from the participating experts except many Sinologists in Europe and the United States，Among Chinese scholars, my teacher Li Xueqin、Qiu Xigui、Li Boqian、Gaoming and other gentlemen。My classmates in the same class、Mr. Peng Hao, deputy curator of Jingzhou Museum，As one of the main organizers of Guodian bamboo slips，At the meeting, the basic content of the basic content Bet365 lotto review of Guodian Zhujian and the topic of the interrogation problem。

Professor Ailan asked his friend's recent situation，I can't help but talk about the admiration of Lao Tzu's "Tai Life Water" in the newly discovered in "Guo store"，And believes that the Chinese have reached an amazing height of the "universe generation" more than 2,000 years ago，It is worth taking seriously，In -depth research。Later，I read the relevant information，I learned about 807 briefs unearthed from "Guodian Bamboo Slip"、In the Warring States Literature of more than 10,000 words，Including 14 Confucian works and 4 family works，There are some new contents that have never been seen before in various articles。Where，The newly discovered article "Too Life Water" is the most important。

Current，The academic community has recognized: "" Too Life Water "provides a new model of the theory of the universe"，"" Too Life Water "actually only talked about one question，That is the problem of the theory of the universe "，"In fact, it's aquatic things"，Therefore, "Taiyi、Water、Heaven and Earth、God (Sun and Moon?)、Four o'clock ... "Such a sequential order generated by all things。"Tai Life Water" explanation，Lao Tzu has realized that "water is the source of all life"，This view is being confirmed by modern science，Explain that this is a "underground literature that shocks the world"，It is a major discovery of "Rebining the History of World Thought"。(See "Guo Dian Chu Tomb Bamboo Slip" Cultural Relics Publishing House 1998 edition; Pang Pu Wenji, Volume 2 "New Tomb"，Shandong University Press 2005 edition)

We also talk about，The ancients of Sanxingdui should have also produced insights on the world and humans，and use the form of styling art to express them，Created a unique Sanxingdui culture。That day，I not only felt the knowledge and enthusiasm of Professor Ailan，At the same time, I am deeply proud of the wisdom and creation of the ancient Chinese，and feel after bet365 live casino games retirement，You should also continue to do deep and meticulous research on Sanxingdui culture。

Professor Ailan invited me to give a lecture at the University of Da Musi，Organize a meeting with her，and introduced Sanxingdui and my situation in the lecture hall。My lecture title is "Ancient Civilizations on the Upstream of the Yangtze River in China: Samsung Dou and Sands"，Not only did I talk about the archeological harvest of Sanxingdui，Also mentioned the newly discovered Jinsha site in 2001，And think that these discoveries have further improved the study of ancient civilization in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River in China。Teachers and students from Damus Sisi University therefore have a deep interest in new discovery of Chinese archeology，Deepen their understanding of China's splendid culture and long history。

Subsequent，Professor Ailan arranged for me to go to Mingde University, Vermore, Western Hampshire to make the same lecture。Last，I invited me to Harvard University in Boston for an academic visit，A deeper communication with the Department of Anthropology。We are in the office of the Department of Anthropology，Observe and discuss the pictures of cultural relics unearthed from Samsung Dou。They mainly focus on the characteristics of the characteristics of Sanxingdui culture、Faith concept、Source at the macro level，each raised questions。I made a preliminary answer based on my own knowledge，But I feel that there are still a lot of problems that I can't say clearly。After discussion，They took me to the school's museum，I saw some early Chinese cultural relics such as Cultural Gourd in Culture Gourd in Erlitou and Jade Class，Make me very surprising。We visited the campus together，Take a photo in front of Mr. Harvard’s bronze statue，Finally dine at the tavern next to the school，The topic has never left the archeological discovery and research of Sanxingdui and ancient Chinese culture。This time more casual and frank communication，bet365 Play online games Let me have a preliminary understanding of the situation and research method of the Department of Anthropology at Harvard University，I also feel that the archeology of Sanxingdui is at height、Width or depth，There are still many jobs to do。

In the second half of this visit to relatives，I have time to study at the library of Da Musi University，I saw some academic books that are not easy to see in China，Breaking the horizon，Open your mind again。

When I retire，has completed a monograph、One copy of it、The manuscript of a collection of articles，I want to do more business work anymore。Through visiting visits and academic exchanges in several universities in the eastern United States this time，I have seen the broad prospects and specific problems of archeological research，Extended your own ideas and interests，I also feel the necessity of academic exchanges，Added confidence and determination to continue the research on Sanxingdui research。This is also an important harvest and experience of studying and exchanges several times after reform and opening up，prompting me to do some more in -depth research work in the next 20 years。

　　Indonesian trip

After retirement，When I travel abroad，I also intended to choose some places related to archeological work, especially Sanxingdui research to visit and inspect，Among them, the trip to Bali, Indonesia and the Egyptian Nile River is very harvested，Become another way of learning and communication。

At the end of 2016，A friend who visited scholars in the United States returned to Chengdu to visit relatives，Asking me to go to Bali, Indonesia。I heard，People there still believe in a primitive religion that believes "all things"，It is likely to have similarities with Sanxingdui，But the specific situation does not understand。It is rare to have such an opportunity to move forward with friends，I immediately expressed willingness to go together，I also bought a "Bali Travel"，The travel process bet365 best casino games is quite interesting and harvested。

We follow the itinerary arranged by the travel agency，Take a flight from Chengdu to Singapore Airport，Remains directly to Bali, Indonesia。This is an island formed by a volcanic eruption in the central Indonesian chain islands，There is a high -scale erupted Aguon volcano that is still erupted from time to time in the north of the island.，The local people are regarded as "Shengshan"。Since it is located near the equator，The climate is humid and rainy，The volcanic ash soil is fertile in the island，and formed a larger plain and a narrow peninsula in the central and southern parts，Vegetables are extremely lush，Coastal beach is flat，Warm and pleasant people in the four seasons，Created a piece of music that is suitable for human survival。

During the relatively closed development process of local residents，formed and maintained a primitive religious belief with the concept of "all things" as the main characteristic，On the basis of absorbing Hinduism and other customs，Become a unique "Bali Hinduism", which is known as "ancient cultural living fossils"。In addition, the protection and development of the domestic and international community in Indonesia over the years，This has become a world -renowned tourist destination and international conference center。November 2022，The 17th Summit of the Twenty Group Leaders who just held significance here just held here。

In addition to visiting the beautiful scenery，The focus of the inspection also focuses on trying to understand "Bali Primitive Religion"。According to a guide,，Aboriginal people here，"Kings" from several distinguished small countries，Go to various households in various villages and villages，Most people maintain the concept of belief and related living habits of "all things with spirit"，Create a temple or home temple with different levels。They think，Sky、Di、All things and various things，All of the gods exist and dominate，All bet365 Play online games should be sacrificed and worshiped，Among them, the mountain、Sea、The faith of the gods such as coconut trees is particularly devout，and generally implement cremation。All signs of description，They still retain the core religion's belief core，Just in architecture、Statue、festival、Dance and other aspects，Later, it was affected by different degrees of Hinduism。

The largest Ubud Temple on the island，is the main temple of a kingdom in the south of the island，Building tall and gorgeous。The main building in the middle of the gate in front of the temple，Is a triangular "altar"，Use different forms of architectural structure，From the bottom to top, it is manifested as "ground", "person", "god", "god", "god"。On both sides of the altar, there is a narrow "Tianmen" split vertically from the middle，As the entrance and exit channel of the God of God，All need to go from the right，Out of the left。There are several grass -roof square houses in the middle of the temple，is a place for sacrifice，People can enter the temple for sacrifice activities。The king's palace is located in a courtyard behind the temple，The king and their families must also engage in labor production，Explain that there is still a certain degree of equal concepts here。

According to the introduction of the guide，We also visited several different levels of "Temple Temple" and "Village Temple"，The size of the building is different，Connotation is roughly similar。I still use the time of morning tour，Walk to the streets and alleys，Watch a dozen "home temples"，Most of them are an independent volcanic stone building，It is also clearly expressed as three parts: "heaven", "earth" and "underground"。In the hall of some residents，You can also see flowers or clear water placed in the upper, middle and lower positions，Three sacrifices every morning, middle, evening，To worship the world of all things and the gods in the family。

We just took a look at Bet365 app download the flowers，I have already felt the local devotion of this kind of original religion。The formation and inheritance of this belief，Maybe with the superior and closed natural geographical environment，and the historical and humanistic conditions of harmony，Also connects with local living customs and cultural traditions，It is particularly possible to have an inherent relationship with its unique social organization form，It is worth conducting in -depth research，It can be used as a reference material for us to discuss the concept of belief and social situation research of Sanxingdui ancient Shu civilization。
