Husband’s Tao, virtue, benevolence, righteousness, and propriety are all integrated. Taoism, what people do, makes all things not know where it goes. Virtue is what people gain, so that all things can get what they want. A benevolent person is someone who is loved by others and has a heart of kindness, kindness and compassion, so that they can be born. Righteousness is what is appropriate for people, rewarding good deeds and punishing evil deeds in order to accomplish meritorious deeds. Etiquette is what people should do, and they should work hard and sleep well at night, in order to maintain the order of human ethics. Husband's desire to be the foundation of human beings is indispensable.
A wise man and a gentleman understand the path of prosperity and decline, know the number of success and failure, judge the trend of controlling chaos, and understand the principle of getting rid of things. Therefore, he lurks in the Tao and waits for the right time. If you act when the time comes, you will be able to achieve the position of being a minister; if you act when the opportunity arises, you will be able to achieve unparalleled achievements. If you don't meet him, you just have no body. This is because his Tao is high and his reputation is more important than that of future generations.
Righteous Dao Chapter 2
Virtue is enough to hold a distant future, faith is enough to be different, righteousness is enough to win many people, it is enough to learn from the past, and it is bright enough to illuminate the future, this person is so handsome!
Conduct is enough for appearance, wisdom is enough to resolve suspicion, trustworthiness is enough to keep promises, and integrity is enough to distribute wealth. This person is so proud!
He who keeps his duties but does not abandon them, does justice without turning back, sees disapproval but does not hesitate to avoid it, sees benefits but does not refuse to get them, this person is outstanding!
Chapter 3 of the Ambition to Seek Others
I am absolutely addicted to abstinence, so I can get rid of my tiredness. Suppression does not harm evil, so it is avoided. The wine is derogatory and the color is good, so there is no pollution.
Avoid suspicion, so don’t make mistakes. He is knowledgeable and inquires deeply, so he knows a lot. High deeds and small words lead to self-cultivation.
Be respectful, frugal and modest, so be self-disciplined. Think long and hard, so you are not poor. Relatives, benevolence and friends are straight, so I support you.
I am close to others and sincere in my practice, so I pick up people. Talents are used to make people capable, so they can help with tasks. He hates evil and rebukes slander, so he stops the chaos.
Learn from the past and test the present, so don’t be confused. Defend first and save later, so you should die. Suppose that change leads to power, so the knot is untied.
Kuao Nang goes smoothly, so there is no blame. The prongs and prongs are stems, so they make meritorious deeds. Be diligent and kind, so you can survive forever.
The fourth chapter of the Bende Sect's Dao Chapter
The art of practicing with determination and sincerity. Don't be good at making plans, don't be content with enduring humiliation, don't put virtue first, don't be happy by loving good deeds, don't be spiritual with sincerity, be wise with things, be happy with contentment, don't be miserable with many wishes, Don't be sad because of fine powder, don't be sick because of impermanence, don't be short of success, don't be lonely because of greed, don't be lonely because of self-reliance, don't be dangerous because of doubts, don't lose because of selfishness.
Zunyi Chapter 5
To express clearly is to conceal, to conceal if one has made mistakes and not to return, to confuse those who are confused and not to return, to cause harm by speaking, and to destroy those who are good-hearted. The former will be destroyed and later will be misunderstood; those who are angry but without power will be offended; those who love others will be in trouble; those who kill and humiliate those in charge will be in danger; those who are arrogant towards those whom they respect will be in danger; those who appear to be in harmony with their hearts will be lonely; those who are close and slander those who are far away and loyal will perish; those who are near and far will perish. A sage who looks far away will be confused; a woman who pays homage to a public servant will be disturbed; a private person who uses an official position will be frivolous; a person who conquers a subordinate will be invaded; a person whose name is not worthy of his name will be wasted. Those who ignore oneself and blame others will not be cured; those who are generous to themselves but belittle others will be abandoned. Those who neglect their merits due to faults will be harmed, those who are outsiders will be ruined, those who use them will be neglected, and those who reward and be stingy will be discouraged. Those who accept more and less will complain, and those who welcome and reject are obedient. Those who give little and have high expectations will not be repaid, and those who are noble but forget the humble will not be rewarded for long. It is dangerous to hold on to old grievances and abandon new achievements; it is dangerous to employ people improperly; to use force to employ people is not to be an animal; to choose officials for others is chaotic; to lose the power of others is to be weak; to make decisions based on unkindness is dangerous; to betray evil plans will lead to defeat; to be generous and generous but to give poorly. Those who wither. A warrior is poor, a traveler, a scholar, a rich man; a trader, a briber, a public servant, ignorant; a man who hears good things and neglects them, and a man who remembers his faults is violent; a man who is trusted cannot be trusted, and a man who cannot be trusted is dishonest. Those who are shepherds who behave with virtue gather, those who lead people with punishment disperse. If small achievements are not rewarded, great achievements will not be achieved; if small grievances are not forgiven, great grievances will inevitably arise. Those who are not willing to accept rewards and punishments will rebel. Rewards are for no merit, punishments are for those who are innocent. He who listens to slander will be beautiful; he who hears admonishment and his enemies will perish. Those who can have what they have are safe, but those who are greedy for what others have have will be ruined.
Anli Chapter 6
The blame lies in not letting go of small mistakes, and the trouble lies in not hesitating to make plans. Blessings come from accumulating good, disaster comes from accumulating evil. Hunger lies in humble peasants, cold lies in lazy weavers. The peace lies in gaining people, the danger lies in losing soldiers. Wealth comes when we are welcomed, poverty comes when we abandon it. There is no constant control on the top, and there are many doubts on the bottom. If you take the superior lightly, you will be guilty, and if you insult the inferior, you will have no relatives. Those who are close to you are not valued, and those who are far away are treated lightly. Do not doubt yourself but do not trust others; be confident and do not doubt others. A useless scholar has no true friends, and he has no straight friends. There are no virtuous people in a dangerous country, and there are no good people in a chaotic government. Those who love people deeply are eager to seek wise people, and those who are happy to find wise people nourish others well. The generals of the country, the tyrants, and the nobles will all return; the generals of the country, the wise ones, will be the first to flee. If the land is thin, no big things will grow; if the water is shallow, big fish won't swim; if the trees are bare, no big birds will live; if the forests are sparse, no big animals will live. If the mountains are steep, they will collapse; if the mountains are full, they will overflow. Those who abandon jade and take stones are blind; those who use sheep's skin and tiger's skin are soft. If you don't raise your clothes and lead, you will fall down; if you walk without looking at the ground, you will be knocked upside down. The house of the weak will be ruined, and the country of the weak will be ruined. The foot cold is sad, and the people's resentment hurts the country. When a mountain is about to collapse, the people will die first; when a country is about to decline, the people will die first. The roots are withered and the branches are rotten, and the people are in dire straits and the country is in ruins. Those who are on the same track as the overturned carriage will collapse; those who are on the same track as the country's subjugation will be destroyed. Those who see that they have been lost must be careful about losing them, and those who hate their traces must avoid them. Those who are afraid of danger will be safe, and those who are afraid of death will survive. What a lady does, if she has the right way, she will be lucky, and if she does not, it will be bad. Those who are lucky will be blessed by a hundred blessings; those who are unlucky will be attacked by a hundred misfortunes. If it is not sacred, it is favored by nature. Those who make good plans will have no evil, and those who do not have far-sightedness will have short-term worries. Comrades gain from each other, colleagues worry about each other, share evil with each other, pursue love with each other, envy each other with beauty, and conspire with wisdom. Those who are of the same rank harm each other, those who are of the same benefit are jealous of each other, those who share the same voice respond to each other, and those who share the same spirit are sympathetic to each other. Like people depend on each other, they have the same meaning, they help each other in the same difficulties, they complement each other in the same way, they follow the same skills in the same way, and they win in the same way. This is the result of counting and cannot be violated. He who frees himself and teaches others is counterintuitive; he who rectifies himself and transforms others is obedient. It is difficult to follow those who are against it, and it is easy to follow those who follow it. If it is difficult to follow, it will be chaos, and if it is easy to follow, it will be logical.
It’s okay to manage one’s body, family, and country in this way!
