Chapter 478 The unity of knowledge and action
Wu Yonglin naturally failed to block the slowly passing hot water alone. After finding that it was useless, he had to put the wet bathrobe on his body to cover his shy body. Looking at Zhuge Wolong who seemed to be gloating next to him, Wu Yonglin punched him firmly in the chest, which of course did not use internal strength.
"Why did you hit me? Mencius said: 'It's not fate, you can accept the right way. Therefore, those who know their fate do not stand under the rock wall. Those who die through the way are the right way are the right way; those who are shackled are not the right way.'"
(Mencius said: "Nothing is not a destiny (decision). If you obey the destiny, you will accept a normal destiny; therefore, those who understand the destiny will not stand under the dangerous wall. Those who do their best to die are normal destiny; those who die by crimes are not normal destiny.")
"Confucius was trapped between Chen and Cai, and even cut off food. The disciples were so hungry that they could not stand up. However, Confucius still taught and recited, played and sang, taught poetry, rituals and music without interruption. Zilu was very angry and came to see Confucius and said, "Does a gentleman have troubles?" Confucius said, "A gentleman can stick to troubles without wavering, and villains will do whatever they want." Frustration and complacent are both human ills. The ancients said, "Thinking about fullness and warmth, hunger and cold lead to robbery." Whether facing good or bad situations, they are both human ills. The ancients said, "Thinking about fullness and warmth, and thinking about hunger and cold," whether facing good or bad situations.
, being able to keep your feet on the ground is a kind of cultivation, a noble heart. You don’t lack food or wear, which is completely different from the situation where the Confucius Saint was in at that time. What’s the difference between your behavior of standing by and watching by the side and a villain behind the scenes? What’s more, Mencius was a disciple of Zisi (Kong Ji, the grandson of Confucius), and Zisi was taught by Zengzi. Zengzi was an important successor of Confucius’s learning, so it is also said that Mencius was the second disciple of Confucius. Today I will teach you a lesson for the Kong family, who is not improving."
"Who are you? You are quite proud of your tone, and you dare to regard yourself as the descendant of the Confucius family."
"Don't worry about whether I have the qualifications or not, just take the story of writing brothels. If there is no description in your book that makes people fall into a shadow, just a painting, what can those people do to you?"
"I also made a beautiful treatment, but no one has any obscene words inside."
"Then why didn't you guard the side when you were publishing? All this was caused by your sudden carelessness. You still had something to do with fate. It made people laugh when it was spread. What kind of travel notes do you know that you would go to the famous rivers and mountains to travel? You had to go to the border line to sway. If I were an official, I would be the first to arrest you in prison. And you wrote history. If you don't have the determination to be a man, you might as well die. Not everyone can become a corporal person.
Ma Qian. You explain the military strategy. I think you are just full. In the book "The General Yao of Wu Jing", Zeng Gongliang and Ding Du, how many people scolded them behind their backs? Do you know that whenever there are wars, the weapons of the Westerners and the Daliao people are stronger and stronger every time. You even make the military strategy of Sun Zi and Guiguzi know. Do you make these people still alive? As for the stories of gods and monsters and the biography of celebrities, you have suffered so much before. Don’t you know where your own problem is?"
"God is jealous of talent."
"Uh, don't stick gilds on your face. Is this rotten thing soaked in water the thing you just wrote recently? I'll listen to your opinions."
"Reason is the origin of all things in the universe, and it is good. He gives good to people and becomes nature, and gives good to society and becomes "ritual". In the chaos and interweaving of all things in the world, it is easy for people to lose their nature of being endowed with "reason", and society loses "ritual". Since reason is the origin of all things in the universe, there must be a "reason". By exploring the principles of things (investigating things), the purpose of knowing the truth (to be aware). Therefore, if you cannot restrain the expansion of your selfish desires, you will deviate from the way of heaven, and not only will you not be able to do so. Becoming a saint (the highest level of Confucianism can be achieved by everyone), you may also lose the world. Therefore, you must cultivate, return, and stretch the nature given by God (preserving the laws of heaven) to achieve the highest state of "benevolence". At this time, you have completely entered the truth, that is, "the unity of man and nature", and then you can "do whatever you want without transcending the rules". At this time, human desires have been integrated into the laws of heaven (destroying human desires is not without desire, but the unity of reason and desires), without intention, without necessity, without solidity, without self (from "no" to "no"), then no matter what you do, no deviate from heaven."
"Preserve the laws of heaven and destroy human desires?"
"For brother, I have great opinions."
"I'm a bastard. What's the difference between you and a frog sitting in a well and looking up at the sky? As the saying goes: There is no good or evil, there is good or evil movement. Knowing good and evil is conscience, and doing good to eliminate evil is investigation.
Things and reason are endless, and when they are illusory, they will not be relieved. Therefore, they advocate "respect for conscience" and look for "reason" from one's own heart. "reason" is all about the human "heart". "reason" transforms the universe, the world and all things. People adhere to their elegance, so people's hearts adhere to their essence. In terms of the relationship between knowledge and action, it is emphasized that we must know, and we must act, and there is action in knowledge and knowledge in action. The so-called "unity of knowledge and action" is the two of them are both exterior and inseparable. Knowledge must be manifested as action, and if we do not, it cannot be considered true knowledge.
Wencheng's mistakes are not proven by others, so it is subject to conscience. Those who develop their careers may be blocked by the time. Therefore, it is said that "there is the clear and conscious action that is the real and honest way of knowing, and the truth of knowing is the real and honest way of doing." Wencheng's art does not value his ability to do politics, but is the key to daring to be straight and daring to do his intentions.
The complete Neo-Confucianism emphasizes the establishment of ideal personality through moral consciousness, and should strengthen the nation's cultural character of paying attention to integrity and moral integrity, social responsibility and historical mission. It is called "establish a mind for heaven and earth, establish a life for the people, inherit the unique knowledge for the past sages, and bring peace to all ages."
"Dare you ask me about your surname?"
"Wang Yangming."
"Do you accept apprentices?"
"Do you think that a person who is not blind and does not have a pair of glaucoma will change his initial impression of a person who is completely unaware of his character and appearance?"
"You have to believe my sincerity." Zhuge Wolong, naked, suddenly picked up the piece of clothing he used to cover his shame from under the only stone bed in the water prison, and then lifted up a very smooth stone slab that was originally covered with clothes. A deep black hole that could be passed by was revealed below the stone slab. Only then did Wu Yonglin realize that the reason why he refused to help was that he didn't want to reveal his secret.
"You are awesome, what a Shawshank Redemption."
"Who is Shawshank?"
"A guy with hairy chest as awesome as you."
"Are I handsome?"
"Do you think it's appropriate to talk about this at this time?"
"Did you realize the unity of knowledge and action?"
"I can do it, can you do it?"
"It should be possible."
