Mencius information:
Mencius (about 372 BC - about 289 BC), named Ke, or given the courtesy name Ziyu , Huaxia nationality (Han nationality), from Zou (now Zoucheng City, Shandong Province).
He is the second disciple of Kong Ji, the grandson of Confucius. According to legend, he is a descendant of Qingfu, an aristocratic son surnamed Ji of the state of Lu. His father's name is Ji, and his mother's surname is Zhǎng.
Mencius was a great thinker, educator and representative of the Confucian school during the Warring States Period. Together with Confucius, he is also called "Confucius and Mencius". His representative works include "The Fish I Want", "Many Helps for the Right, Little Help for the Bad", "Born in Worry, Die in Peace", "The King Looks Around and Talks About Others", which have been included in junior high school Chinese textbooks, "The Ignorance of the Country" Also" is included in high school Chinese textbooks.
Politically, Mencius advocated the rule of law and benevolent government; theoretically, he admired Confucius and opposed Yang Zhu and Mo Zhai. He advocated benevolent government and put forward the people-centered thought of "the people are more important than the emperor". He traveled to Qi, Song, Teng, Wei, Lu and other countries, imitating Confucius and implementing his own political ideas, which lasted for more than 20 years. However, Mencius' theory of benevolent government was considered "far-fetched and broad-minded" and was not implemented. In the end, he retired from teaching, and together with his students, he "prefaced the Poetry and the Book, described the meaning of Zhongni (that is, Confucius), and wrote seven chapters of Mencius."
Mencius "Nurture my awe-inspiring spirit well." A person with great righteousness is called the spirit of a gentleman. In this world, it may be called qigong, which is wrong. A person with great righteousness is enriched by virtue, but empty without virtue. In ancient times, the invisible was regarded as Qi, so it was called Qi.
Later generations named Mencius as "Ya Sheng Gong" and respectfully called "Ya Sheng". His disciples and subsequent disciples recorded Mencius's words and deeds in the book "Mencius", which is a collection of quotation prose. The compilation of Mencius' remarks was compiled by Mencius and his disciple Wan Zhang**.
