Confucius said, "Take part in it, and my way is consistent." Zeng Zi said, "Only." When Zi came out, his disciples asked, "What is it?" Zeng Zi said, "The way of a master is loyalty and forgiveness."?

2. Translation:

Confucius said, "Come on, what I am talking about is always carried out by a basic idea." Ceng Zi said, "Yes." After Confucius went out, his classmates asked Ceng Zi, "Ceng Zi said," The teacher's way is just loyalty and forgiveness. "

The way of loyalty and forgiveness is an important content of Confucius and Confucianism. According to Confucius' explanation, forgiveness means "Don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you". Forgive yourself, but be loyal to others. Treating others with loyalty and forgiveness is the basic requirement of benevolence, which runs through all aspects of Confucius' thought. The question of principle runs through a person and a thing from beginning to end and cannot be changed. This is the persistence of personality and the only way to success.
