Mozi, the founder of Mohism, set an example and traveled all over the world, calling for helping the poor.
Then let's take a look at Mozi's famous saying of loving peace through Mohist culture.
Lovers see love, and evil people see evil.
All Love by Mozi. This sentence points out that those who love and respect others are bound to be loved and respected, and those who don't like and hate others are bound to be rejected and hated. Mozi advocated "universal love" and "mutual non-aggression", and believed that people should love and respect each other, and should not conquer or fight each other. He told people that the relationship between people is always mutual, and how you treat others will be treated by others in the same way, so harmony should be the most important.
Promote the benefits of the world and eliminate the harm of the world.
All Love by Mozi. This sentence means to do anything beneficial to the whole world and help it build up; Get rid of anything harmful to the whole world. The core of Mozi's theory is to love the world. Doing beneficial things for all the people in the world and eliminating the evils that endanger the people embodies Mozi's great ambition of pursuing peace and justice and seeking welfare for the people.
When the righteous are above, the world will be ruled.
Mozi mentioned in "The Unfortunate Life of Mozi" that the world will be peaceful and stable only when moral people are in the upper position. This shows that Mozi respected the superior monarch and mainly practiced "righteous politics", and his behavior should conform to "morality", so that the country can be stable, the people can live and work in peace and contentment, and the world can usher in peace.
Conclusion: Mozi advocated universal love and non-aggression all his life, and believed that meritocracy was the basis of social stability. That's what he advocated and did. Mozi led his disciples around the world all his life to help the poor and the weak. His awe-inspiring and compassionate kindness seems to be out of place in the troubled times of the Warring States, but it is so admirable. Today, we should also learn from Mohism's spirit of loving peace and pursuing justice, turning swords into plowshares and maintaining a hard-won peaceful life.
