brick by brick
Three meanings:
First, reading should be in a certain order and cannot be reversed.
Second, according to their actual situation and ability, arrange a reading plan, and earnestly abide by it.
Third, we should lay a solid foundation for reading, and we should not swallow our dates and rush for success.
Read carefully and think carefully.
You should be familiar with reading and reciting, and be good at thinking.
Familiarity helps to understand, which means "read it a thousand times and its meaning is self-evident". Zhu's emphasis on the reading era is too limited to machinery.
The purpose of close reading is to think carefully. Zhu put forward the process of "no doubt-doubt-solution". That is, the process of finding problems and solving them.
If you can really read well and think well, then you can really finish reading the book and remember it forever.
This is just two of the six articles in Zhu's Zhu Shu Du Fa.
