Mr. Zi said: "My father is watching his ambitions, but he is not watching his actions. If you have not changed your father's ways for three years, you can be called filial."

1 Internet interpretation - Confucius said: "When his father is alive, observe his ambitions. When his father dies, observe his behavior. If he does not change his father's principles for a long time, it can be said to be filial piety. "

2 Teacher Fan Deng said that if you understand it mechanically, you will become like Song Huizong. There is no change and innovation at all. Restoring the old system and doing things according to the way of your fathers will easily go to extremes, so we need to start again. Let’s understand the meaning of not changing from our father’s ways for three years. This Tao should be family tradition, family motto, and values.

3 In ancient times, the three-year rule of not changing one's father was indeed related to the father's industry, because if you did not pass it on, it would mean that the ancestral craftsmanship was lost, but it would be unfilial. Today, I hope that everyone can understand more of my father's spirit and principles of life, and practice it on yourself. This is filial piety.

In the end, father’s love has the deepest impression in our hearts, the longest lasting effect, the most astringent feeling, and the greatest benefit. That is a high mountain, children are forever! ! !
