From the twenty-fourth episode of "The Buddha Speaks of the Ten Good Karma Sutras", the original meaning of this sentence is that from the perspective of nature and instinct, people, whether they are human beings as a whole or individual physical beings, You should fully consider your own interests in everything. Otherwise, you will be punished by nature. Moreover, this kind of punishment is quite severe, as severe as killing and destroying. The meaning is completely different from the current meaning.

Some people say that "if a person does not serve himself, the heaven and earth will destroy him" is a Confucian view. This is Zhang Guan Li Dai, This should be attributed to Sakyamuni. Confucianism talks about "denying oneself and restoring propriety" and "sacrifice oneself for others", which is not selfish.

The wise saying "If a man does not serve himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth", it is time for justice and thought-provoking.

More than two thousand years ago, the ancient Greek philosopher Socrates warned us: "Know thyself."

Sanmao was puzzled: "What are you? Who are you? Are you your own?"

In 1980, the fifth issue of "China Youth" published Pan Xiao The letter proposed that "subjectivity is for oneself, objectivity is for others", which aroused widespread concern among young people. The reason why the discussion called the first love of Chinese youth’s thoughts ended in failure is that she misused the rubbish concept of “self” in the old paper. The self is himself, and he is in conflict with others. If I were to replace myself, this sentence would be "Subjectivity is myself, and objectivity is even more myself." Because subjectivity is myself, and objectivity is myself, including myself, all human beings. It is harmony with oneself and the magnificent love of the characters themselves.

Marx was the first person to recognize "self" because Marx regarded all mankind as himself. Only by liberating all mankind can the proletariat itself be finally liberated. Philosophy regards the proletariat as its material weapon. Similarly, the proletariat also regards philosophy as its spiritual weapon. Philosophy cannot become reality without destroying the proletariat. If the proletariat does not transform philosophy into reality, it cannot become reality. Eliminate the proletariat itself. Marx said: "The result of history is: the most complex truth, the essence of all truths, (people) will eventually understand themselves." Marx said, I have said it, I have saved my soul.

The relationship between human beings and nature is social. The essence of human beings is the sum of all social relationships. In the final analysis, it is the character himself. If human beings do not regard nature (heaven and earth) as themselves, that is to say, if humans do not regard nature as themselves, the atmosphere will be polluted and the earth will be overdrafted. Wouldn't it be a catastrophe?

Lenin understood Marx’s soul and understood himself. He said, “We must understand the ‘self-movement’ of all processes in the world... The main focus should be on understanding the ‘self’ movement. "At the source."

Although Mao Zedong said, "When the world reaches a time when all mankind consciously transforms itself and the world, that will be the era of world communism." But he did not know that transforming himself was the beginning. Transform the world. If "and transform the world" are removed, it can be simplified to "When the world transforms itself, it will be the era of communism."

It's okay to worship yourself, but you can't be superstitious about yourself, because your character is in the world. Get to know yourself and understand yourself in the process of exercising yourself.

It is natural and right to live for oneself, and if others do not serve oneself, they will be punished by heaven and earth.
