The Tao is the best and the people cannot forget it.
The Book of Songs says, "Look at the winding waterfront and lush green bamboo. There is a gentle gentleman who delves into knowledge like a bone machine and keeps learning from it; Self-cultivation is like polishing beautiful jade and pondering it over and over again. He is solemn, cheerful and handsome. Such a gentle gentleman is really unforgettable!

Gao Kang said, "Kemingde." "Tai Jia" said: "Ancient times are destiny." The emperor's canon says, "Honest and clean." It goes without saying. Pan Ming of Tang Zhi said, "If you are new, you will be new, and you will be new." Gao Kang said, "Be a new citizen." The poem reads: "Although Zhou is an old country, his life has changed." Therefore, a gentleman does his best. The translation of Gao Kang said: "It can carry forward the bright character." "Tai Jia" said: "I don't forget the nature of this light." Yao Dian said: "It can carry forward lofty morality." These are all to promote their aboveboard character. King Shang Tang's motto engraved on the bathtub said, "If you can start over one day, keep starting over every day and start over forever." Gao Kang said: "Encourage people to abandon the old and absorb new ideas." The Book of Songs said: "Although the Zhou Dynasty was an ancient country, it was endowed with destiny and self-renewal." Therefore, people with high moral character pursue perfection everywhere. original text

The Book of Songs says: "Look at the curved bank of the water, with lush green bamboo. There is a gentle gentleman who delves into knowledge like a bone machine and keeps learning from it; Self-cultivation is like polishing beautiful jade and pondering it over and over again. He is solemn, cheerful and handsome. Such a gentle gentleman is really unforgettable!

The original "Poetry" cloud: "Yu! The former king did not forget. " Gentlemen are virtuous and close to each other; The villain takes pleasure in pleasure and interests, so that he will never forget it.
The Book of Songs says, "Oh, the kings of the previous generation are really unforgettable!" This is because the monarchs and nobles can follow the example of the previous kings and respect the sages to be close to their loved ones, while the ordinary people are also favored, enjoy happiness and gain benefits. Therefore, although the former kings have all passed away, people will never forget them.
It turned out that Confucius said, "I was still alone when I heard the lawsuit." It won't cause a lawsuit! "ruthless people are endless, and they are afraid of people's ambitions. This is called knowing it. The so-called knowledge is in things, words want to reach my knowledge, and poverty is in things. Everything in the world is unreasonable, but because reason is inexhaustible, its knowledge is inexhaustible. It is based on the "university" that teaching begins, and scholars must begin to become everything in the world, all of which benefit the poor because of their known principles, in order to achieve the ultimate. As for the hard work for a long time, once suddenly enlightened, everything is fine and thick, and the use of the heart is unknown. This is called the situation of things, and this is called knowing.
Confucius said: "I try litigation cases like others, the purpose of which is to prevent litigation from happening again." Let people who hide the real situation dare not rhetoric and scare people with virtue. This is called understanding the fundamental truth.
It is said that the way to acquire knowledge lies in understanding and studying everything, that is to say, if you want to acquire knowledge, you must contact things and study their principles deeply. The human mind has cognitive ability, and everything in the world always has certain principles. Just because these principles have not been fully understood. So knowledge is very limited. Therefore, from the very beginning, universities teach learners to get in touch with everything in the world, use their existing knowledge to further explore, and thus thoroughly understand the principles of everything. After a long time of hard work, one day I will suddenly get over it. At that time, everything inside and outside will understand, and my internal cognitive ability will be brought into full play without any cover. This is called knowing everything, saying everything, and this is called the acme of knowing.

The so-called sincere person is not deceiving himself. If it stinks, if it's lewd, it's called modesty. Therefore, a gentleman must be cautious! Villains are not good at fooling around and can do anything. When you meet a gentleman, he will be disgusted, cover up his bad and focus on his good. If a person sees his lungs and liver, what good is it to see himself? This is called sincerity in the middle and tangible outside, and a gentleman must be cautious and independent.
translate
Making your heart sincere means not deceiving yourself. Just as you hate rancid smells, you should love beautiful women so that you can feel at ease. Therefore, a virtuous person must be careful when he is alone.
People with low moral character do evil in private, but when they see people with high moral character, they hide their evil deeds and brag about them. As everyone knows, others see them as clearly as their own heart, lungs and liver. What's the use? This is called inner truth, and it will definitely show up externally. Therefore, a virtuous person must be careful when he is alone. original text
The so-called self-cultivation is in the right heart, and it is wrong to be angry; If you are afraid, you may be wrong; What is fun can't be right; If you are worried, you may be wrong. Absent-minded, blind, deaf, eat without knowing its taste. This is called cultivating one's mind.
The so-called people who are loved, despised, respected, pitied and lazy by others in the process of physical training. Therefore, it is difficult to know that good is evil, and knowing evil is beautiful! Therefore, there is a saying: "People don't know the evil of children, and people don't know the size of seedlings." This means that if you don't fix your body, you can't be at home. translate
It is said that to cultivate self-cultivation, we must first correct our mentality, because we can't correct our anger, our fears, our likes and worries. A bad heart is like a heart that is not on you: although you are looking, you don't seem to see it; Although listening, I don't seem to hear it; Although I am eating, I don't know what it tastes like. Therefore, to cultivate self-cultivation, we must first correct our mentality. The reason why we should cultivate ourselves before running a family and family is because people have a preference for their loved ones; Will be biased against people you hate; Be biased against those who are afraid of themselves; Will be biased against those who sympathize with themselves; You will be biased towards people you despise. So few people in the world can love a person to see his shortcomings and hate a person to see his advantages. So there is a proverb: "No one knows the shortcomings of children, and no one is satisfied with the prosperity of crops." This is why you can't manage your family and family well without self-cultivation.

The so-called rule of the country must be family-oriented, and there is no truth that the family can not teach others. Therefore, a gentleman does not become a monk and becomes a Buddhist. Filial piety, so things are also jun; Brother, so the matter is long; Yeah, that's why Gong Ye. "Poetry" says: "Peach flies away, but its Ye Zhenzhen. The son of Yu Gui is suitable for his family. " Suitable for their families, and then you can teach people. Poetry says, "Brothers should be brothers." You should be brothers and younger brothers, and then you can teach the people. "Poetry" said: "It's just four countries." Father-son law, then civil law. This is called running a country, in your own home.
translate
The reason why a country should first manage its own family and clan is because it is impossible to restrain others without discipline. Therefore, educated people receive the education of governing the country at home: filial piety to parents can be used to serve the monarch, respect for brothers can be used to serve officials, and kindness to children can be used to rule the people. The Book of Songs says: "Peach blossoms are delicious and have dense leaves. The girl got married and brought the whole family together. " Let the whole family live in harmony, and then the people of a country can live in harmony. The Book of Songs says, "Brothers live in harmony." Brothers live in harmony, and then people in a country can live in harmony. The Book of Songs said: "The appearance and behavior are solemn and serious, which is an example for the four countries." Only when a person is worthy of being imitated as a father, son, brother or younger brother will people imitate him. This is the truth that governing the country must first govern the family and govern the family. original text
The so-called "leveling the world" means governing the country. People are old, filial, long, young and caring for orphans, but people are different. This is a polite way for a gentleman.
translate
The reason why we should govern the country well is that high-level people respect the elderly and ordinary people will be filial to their parents. Senior people respect their elders, and ordinary people will respect their brothers. People in the upper class sympathize with orphans, and ordinary people will follow suit. Therefore, people with high moral character always practice the "moral principle" of setting an example and pushing others. original text
If you are evil, don't let it fall; What is evil is not in this matter; Evil is ahead, not behind; What is the evil of the future, not the evil of the past; Right evil, not left; If you are left evil, don't give it to right evil. This is the so-called instant way. translate
If you hate a certain behavior of your boss, don't treat your subordinates with this behavior; If you hate a certain behavior of subordinates, don't treat your boss with this behavior; If you hate a certain behavior of the person in front, don't treat the person behind with this behavior; If you hate a certain behavior of the person behind, don't treat the person in front with this behavior; If you hate some behavior of the person on your right, don't treat the person on your left with this behavior; If you hate some behavior of the person on your left, don't treat the person on your right with this behavior.

"Poetry" says: "Only the gentleman is happy, but the parents of the people are also happy." What the people do is good, and what the people hate is evil. This is called people's parents. "Poetry" says: "Nanyue is hard to see, but rocks are hard to see. Hehe, Teacher Yin, the people have a vision. " A country cannot be careless. The monarch is the world. "Poetry" says: "Yin has a clear conscience without losing his teacher. It is not easy to be strict with yin. " If you talk too much, you will get the country, and if you lose the people, you will lose the country. translate
The Book of Songs says: "The monarch and the minister are the parents of Shu Ren." He likes what people like, and he hates what people hate. Such a monarch can be said to be the parents of the people. The Book of Songs says: "The towering Nanshan stands tall. Master Yin, the people look up to you. " People who rule the country must be cautious. A little bias will be overthrown by everyone. The Book of Songs said: "When Yin didn't lose the hearts of the people, it was still reasonable. Please refer to Yin for reference. It is not easy to keep the destiny. " In other words, if you win the hearts of the people, you will get the country, and if you lose the hearts of the people, you will lose the country. original text
Therefore, a gentleman must first be cautious. There are virtues, people, soil, soil, money and money. De, this is also; Those rich people will end up with nothing. Outside, fighting for the people. Therefore, if you gather wealth, the people will disperse, and if you scatter wealth, the people will gather. People who say the wrong thing come out and go in; Goods that go in illegally will also go out illegally. translate
Therefore, people with high moral character pay attention to cultivation first. Only when there is virtue can someone raise it, and only when there is support can the land be protected. Only when there is land can there be wealth, and only when there is wealth can there be supply and utilization. Virtue is the foundation, and wealth is the end. If the roots are regarded as external things and the branches are regarded as internal roots, they will compete with the people for profits. Therefore, when kings gather wealth and goods, people's hearts will be separated; When the king distributes his wealth to the people, the people will gather together. It's like if you speak irrationally, people will answer you with unreasonable words; The source of wealth and goods is unknown, and one day it will be lost inexplicably.

Gao Kang said: "Only life is not constant." If it is good, you will get it, if it is not good, you will lose it. The Book of Chu said: "Chu has no treasure, but is good at it." My uncle said, "The dead are not treasures, but the benevolent relatives are treasures." translate
Gao Kang said: "The fate of Heaven will not be consistent." In other words, if you do good, you will get your destiny, and if you don't do good, you will lose your destiny. The Book of Chu said: "Nothing in Chu is a treasure, but goodness is a treasure." My uncle said, "Exiled people have nothing but kindness."
The original "Qin Shi" said: "If I have no other skills, my heart will rest. People have skills, if any. A person's heart is good, if it can be contained from his mouth, it is beneficial, so as to protect my children and people. People have a skill, and diseases are evil. People are sacred, but if they violate it, they can't tolerate it, they can't protect my children and grandchildren, and there will be danger! " Only the benevolent let nature take its course and burst into four barbarians, not with China. This means that only the benevolent can love and be wicked. Qin Shihuang said: "If there is such a loyal and honest minister, he has no special skills, but he is broad-minded.
Have a tolerant attitude. Others have skills, just as they have them; He is convinced that others have both ability and political integrity, not only verbally, but sincerely. Using such people can protect my children and people and benefit them! On the contrary, if others have technology, they will be jealous and disgusted; Others have both ability and political integrity, but he tries his best to suppress and crowd out, and he can't tolerate it anyway. Using such people can not only protect my children and people, but also be very dangerous! "So, people with kindness will banish such intolerant people to the land of four barbarians and prevent them from living in China. This shows that people with kindness can distinguish between love and hate.
Seeing the sage without lifting, lifting without first, life is also. If you see something bad, you can't back down. If you back down, you can't go far. What a good man hates and what a bad man likes is his arrogance, and disaster will catch his husband. Therefore, a gentleman has a saying: if you get it, you will be loyal, and if you lose it, you will be arrogant. translate
It is contemptuous to find talented people without selecting them, and to select them without reusing them; It is wrong to find the wicked without recalling them, and to recall them without driving them away. It's against human nature to like things that everyone hates and dislike things that everyone likes. Disaster is bound to befall you. Therefore, a gentleman should have a correct principle: he must gain everything through loyalty, and arrogance and indulgence will lose everything.

There is a way to make money: more people live, less people eat, more people are sick, and people who use them are comfortable, so wealth is enough! Kind people get rich by money, and unkind people get rich by their own bodies. It is also bad for people without kindness to go on, people without kindness are not finished, and people without treasury wealth are not their wealth.
translate
There are also correct ways to produce wealth: many people produce wealth and few people consume it; Those who create wealth are diligent, and those who consume wealth are thrifty, so that wealth will always be sufficient. A caring person cultivates his virtue with wealth, while a heartless person does not hesitate to collect money at the expense of his life. The superior does not like benevolence, and the inferior does not like loyalty; Those who don't like loyalty but can't do things; There is no one who does not cherish the property in the national treasury as his own wealth. Meng Xianzi said: "With four carriages, there is no need to raise chickens and pigs; Sacrifice ice to doctor Qing's house, so don't raise cattle and sheep again; A retainer with a hundred chariots should not take in a retainer who plunders people's wealth. It is better to have a retainer who steals than to have a retainer who plunders people's wealth. "That is to say, a country should not take wealth as its interest, but should take benevolence and righteousness as its interest.
As a monarch, he still devotes himself to collecting money, which must be induced by villains. The monarch thinks that these villains are good people and let them handle state affairs. So, natural disasters and man-made disasters came together. Although there are talents at this time, there is no way to save them. Therefore, a country should not take wealth and goods as its interests, but should take benevolence and righteousness as its interests. The original text Meng Xianzi said, "Cattle and horses don't pay attention to chickens and dolphins, the ice-cutting house doesn't pay attention to cattle and sheep, and the hundred-riding house doesn't pay attention to livestock ministers." It is better to have a thief than a minister. "That is to say, the country does not benefit from benefits, but also benefits from righteousness. To serve the country, those who spend money must be small. He is kind, the messenger of the villain is the country, and disaster arrival. Although there are good people, none of them are good! This means that the country does not benefit from profit, but also benefits from righteousness.
