Confucius said, "I know I can't do it: the knower can't do it, but the fool can't." The Tao is unknown, and I know it: the sages have passed it, and the unscrupulous are not as good as it. People seldom know the taste after eating and drinking. Confucius said, "My husband, it's no use talking! "

There is a very important quality in the Book of Changes, which is righteousness. The middle finger refers to the middle position of the upper divination or the lower divination, but it means that the yang is in the yang position and the yin is in the yin position, each with its own position. In this way, even in a bad environment, as long as you are doing something, the timing of anger is just right, so that you can get the best even if you encounter risk challenges. Is that me? This is definitely impossible. For example, Beijing is naturally in the north of Nanjing, but in Harbin's view, Beijing has become the south, so moderation is not the result of choice, but the result of the natural development of life.

Then why do some people naturally expand to near the mean, while others naturally expand with such troubles? How can we demonstrate the golden mean? "People don't know the taste until they eat" is a vivid metaphor for us. This is what we eat every day, but few people can really taste the taste of food. Why do you say that? For example, if you have a piece of candy in your mouth, no matter what other food you eat at this time, it will feel sweet, and it is difficult to tell the true taste of the food. In other words, only when your mouth is empty can you taste the real taste of food. So we can draw an important conclusion that only an ethereal heart can perceive the true thoughts of others. The taste of the golden mean can only be experienced by pure people with empty hearts, such as drinking water and thinking about the source, knowing yourself and knowing yourself. If a person has never eaten an apple, he doesn't know what it tastes like no matter how others describe it.

This is the golden mean. Words cannot describe its essence. After many hardships, Mr. Yangming realized Tao in Longchang and had a thorough understanding of the golden mean. In the next 500 years, how many scholars hope to surpass Yangming's painstaking efforts, but they can do very little, because it is difficult for people to surpass Mr. Yangming in the degree of moderate physical evidence, so it is difficult for them to surpass Yangming's mind.

"Confucius said: Don't say it!" Here is Confucius lamenting that the golden mean is really difficult to practice. Each of us can walk freely, step by step with our left foot and step by step with our right foot, but we can still walk out of a straight line because we have bright eyes and can always calibrate our direction. Without this kind of correction mechanism, we will have both ends meet, so a stable way of walking needs a mechanism of balance between left and right to go steadily and far. In a word, if you want to show the golden mean better, the most important thing is to make your heart ethereal and pure, so that you can naturally walk on the golden mean and deal with people just right.

1. There is no middle way to choose from in the world. Only in our hearts can we return to Zhong Zheng.

Only an ethereal and pure heart can realize the silent call of others.

3. The doctrine of the mean, knowing difficulties is easy.
