Ordinary people's lives are divided, and the life with clear inner feelings is forgotten, compressed, sunk in the depths of life and surrounded by darkness. The external way of animal life has always been enlightening, and one will waste a trip to the world.
So we should read honestly and honestly, and read out the true feelings of life. If such a boring book is read, what is not interesting in this world? Therefore, children who have studied classics are studious and want to learn everything they see, especially reading. What books do they read? Look at the so-called "extracurricular books" written in vernacular Chinese.
But we almost forbid him to read. Why? It is too convenient and easy to read extracurricular books, but he wants to read more when he is curious, which takes up the time of reading famous books. It is easy for a person to read books of knowledge, but seldom to read classics. Now is the time to read classics, and reading as soon as possible is the best policy.
If a child is six or seven years old and wants to read Snow White's story when he is seventeen or eighteen, his stomach is full of knowledge. If he comes to see the story of Snow White, he will understand better that the original seven dwarfs will not become eight. However, when I was six or seven years old, I didn't start learning the reading of The Analects until I was seventeen or eighteen, which was different. Although "learning from time to time" sounds the same, they have different meanings.
It turns out that the learning methods of knowledge and intelligence are different, and the timing of reading classics and extracurricular books is also different. Now the whole world is advocating reading, and we in China should follow suit. Most people think it's great that students like reading extracurricular books. I tell you, the higher their horizons, the more different the scenery they see. Our family, which studies classics, does not encourage children to read extracurricular books because they are meaningless.
Don't believe it? If a primary school student has read all the extra-curricular books in six years, it is so thick (the gestures are higher than each other) and another person has not read anything, but he has already read The Analects of Confucius, Mencius, University, The Doctrine of the Mean, I Ching, I Ching, Lao Zi, Zhuangzi, Tang Poetry and Song Poetry. When he is seventeen or eighteen, he will read those extra-curricular books. Don't! Not for a second, because he disdains reading these books, disdains reading them! (Applause)
Therefore, I suggest that the first extra-curricular book our children should read should at least be China's View on Ancient Literature or Zi Tongzhi Jian, or else they should read Zuo Zhuan and Twenty-five History. I just got a call from a teacher the other day. She said that the children she had taught to learn classics were already reading Twenty-five History in the third grade, which was published by Zhonghua Book Company, and they finished reading it in the third grade. (Applause. ) Later, I read the historical records several times, and Zizhi knew all about it. Now I am in the first grade of junior high school, and the college entrance examination will be held next year. He often tells his friends that he doesn't like anime characters, but he likes historical characters because anime characters have no content.
Ladies and gentlemen, you should raise your eyes a little, or your children will sink into a vulgar world. To lift him up and let him see the light of heaven and earth, you must use bright things to let him absorb and trigger the light of his life.
I think this is a very good and effective educational method. Believe it or not, do it, starting tomorrow! Don't do it if you don't believe me! Believe half, do half; If you believe in one layer, you can do it, and if you do it, it will be effective. Doing it is effective, and reading one sentence is effective! China1400 million people can read one classic every day, and read1400 million classics every day. We can save the earth! This is called reading the Bible honestly.
Again, the third point is "read a lot of classics." I have said a lot just now, the more the better, what is a lot? First, there are many words to read, and second, there are many times to read. I just said it a hundred times, 200 times, 300 times and 500 times. The more times, the more familiar. The more words he has, the wider, thicker and deeper his future foundation will be. We need to know that the more this happens, the more time it will take. So it depends on how many layers you trust in classic education and how long it will take. You completely trust classics, that is, you only read classics all day, read classics for more than eight hours every day, and study for ten years. This man is happy all his life! If you don't do this, after ten years, there will be no chance!
Tell a joke: It is said that there is a religious system in Tibet called "living Buddha certification". A "living Buddha" is a reincarnated monk, who is often certified at the age of two or three and taken away. Someone asked suspiciously: Do you think it's true? They said: it shouldn't be wrong, because there are many signs to prove it, so it can't be wrong. What if someone asks: You admit your mistake? They said: we were certified when we were about three or four years old, so we took them back to bed and let everyone worship him. One of the most important systems is to invite the best teachers! Do the best education! What is the best teacher? Is to invite a teacher who really understands education to teach. What is the best education? That is, reading classics, reading classics all day, reading classics for ten hours a day, takes ten years. They said: if you are not a living Buddha, you will become a living Buddha! So don't ask if your child is born smart, and don't ask this. This is not something you can advocate. What you can advocate is to let him read the Bible honestly and widely for ten years.
If there is no wisdom, can it be measured? Can you serve the masses without your heart? Can you have compassion without compassion? Can you rule the country and the world? It's too late to get a breath for yourself and a bite for yourself. Can you still serve the public?
So, ladies and gentlemen, if you want to broaden your horizons, let him read the greatest wisdom of all mankind. When do you read it? He read all the most difficult books for thousands of years when he didn't understand the difficulty! ! ! (Applause warmly)
When a person's accounting is simpler and more difficult, it means that this person is finished. When we children don't know whether it's difficult or not, we stuff all the difficult things into our stomachs. If it is difficult, it will be easy for us all our lives! Isn't this the greatest happiness in life? So, read the Bible! ?
If you honestly read many classics, that kind of happiness will naturally occur, and it is not shallow spiritual happiness, but deep spiritual happiness! Especially when a child writes the whole book word for word from beginning to end, from the depths of life, how inspired and edified the child's mind will be, and how happy he will be!
Through such learning, the breadth and depth of the mind have been broadened, and children will have a general style. He will be able to see and hear in all directions in the future. To cultivate a confident and ambitious child, a child with lofty spirit and bright eyes, we must know how to teach. This is his nature, and any child can learn like this.
We should not treat human life as an animal, but only like to play and frolic. A person's life, also like stability, also like bright and noble. But if we don't give the child this chance, it will be impossible to know as soon as possible that he still has stable, stable, bright and noble qualities in life, which will hinder him!
So what are you going to do after reading the Bible? He has his own understanding and application. As for where to learn? Where is the application? That's a natural thing in life. The so-called "applying what you have learned" does not necessarily mean learning now, but using it now. Some things are used for learning now, such as vernacular Chinese, such as knowledge and skills-the so-called science and technology education, and now almost all of them are bought and sold. But the learning of wisdom is divided into two stages, starting with reciting classics, but not limited to reciting. Preview is for future understanding and use. Reciting courses can be designed and quantified, while the understanding and application of wisdom is long-term, infinite, silent, non-fixed and unpredictable.
