Mencius said, "A gentleman has three pleasures, but the king of the world does not exist." . Parents exist, brothers have no chance, and they are happy; Yang is worthy of the sky, regardless of people, but also happy; It is three pleasures to be educated by talents in the world. A gentleman has three pleasures, and the king of the world does not exist. "Note (1) Therefore, accidents refer to disasters, diseases and losses. ② Left: ashamed. Mencius said, "A gentleman has three great pleasures, and serving the world with virtue is not one of them. Parents are alive and brothers are safe, which is the first happiness; Being worthy of heaven in the world and being worthy of people in the next is the second greatest happiness; It is the third greatest happiness to get excellent educational talents in the world. Gentlemen have three great pleasures, and serving the world with virtue is not one of them. " "Gentleman's three pleasures" refers to a gentleman's three pleasures in life. There is such a passage in the article "Mencius is dedicated": "A gentleman has three pleasures, but the king of the world does not exist. Parents exist, brothers have no chance, and they are happy. Be worthy of the sky, live up to people, and be happy. If you are educated by talented people in the world, you will have three pleasures. "This passage tells us that Mencius's' gentlemen's three pleasures' refers to three kinds of pleasures in life: parents are alive, brothers have no accidents, and they can be filial, which is the first joy; Treating others with virtue, taking the world as the sky, beggar your neighbor and being worthy of your conscience is the second pleasure. The third pleasure is the pleasure gained by the gentleman to preach and teach, that is, to get the outstanding talents in the world and educate them, so that the gentleman's way can spread all over the world and benefit the society. " "Gentleman" is the ideal personality of Confucianism. Mencius thought: "A gentleman is different from others because of his intention. A gentleman is considerate with benevolence and considerate with courtesy. "In other words, the fundamental difference between a gentleman and ordinary people is that he can keep his moral conscience in his heart and never forget it, which ordinary people can't do. Therefore, Mencius' "three pleasures of a gentleman" is a subjective inner experience of a higher level of moral realm, that is, this is the happiness that a gentleman can obtain. Parents and brothers are healthy and safe, and there are no accidents, so that they can enjoy family happiness. This is a common natural expectation. This is the first pleasure of "gentlemen's three pleasures". Its deeper meaning is that filial piety will bring people moral satisfaction and happiness. Because this is the need of human inner moral nature. Mencius thought: "Everything is ready for me, and I am sincere and happy." In other words, people are born with all kinds of moral natures. As long as they return to their own search and be honest, they can get the greatest happiness. Therefore, it is a great happiness that words and deeds can meet the requirements of one's conscience nature, so that one can have a clear conscience and gain peace of mind. This is the second pleasure of a gentleman. It is undoubtedly a great pleasure for a gentleman to get talents from all over the world, enlighten their minds, answer all kinds of doubts in their hearts, impart knowledge to them and see them grow sturdily. Through them, he can spread the truth all over the world, benefit the society and benefit the people.
