I know things silently, I am not tired of learning, I am not tired of teaching others, what is that for me? Why did Confucius say this?

Confucius said: "Keeping the knowledge in mind silently, studying diligently without being satisfied, teaching others without being tired, what regrets do I have?"

"Knowing things silently", learning depends on knowledge. The word "knowledge" here is the same as "Zhi, Ji, Zhi" in ancient texts, so the sentence "Knowing it silently" means : When studying, you must be quiet, don't worry about external affairs, let alone strive to express yourself, you must understand it silently, this is the most important thing.

"Never get tired of learning", he himself said that his interest in learning will never change. Boredom, this is easy to understand when reading the article. At first glance, it seems nothing remarkable, but if you deeply understand, Confucius’ knowledge is here. Although it is very ordinary, you must know that the greatest thing in the world is ordinary, and you can be content with it. It is difficult to be ordinary. This is also an extension of "people who don't know but are not stunned". I use my own experience to prove that if you are determined to learn something and are willing to work hard to learn, you will not be able to continue to do it tirelessly for a period of time at most. .So it is not an easy thing to be able to learn without getting tired of it throughout your life. Like writing calligraphy and doing Tai Chi, you are very interested in it at first, and then you continue, and when you are about to make progress

, you will be more interested in yourself. The more I read calligraphy with brushes, the more disgusting I become, and I simply don’t want to read it; I also fight boxing to the point where I don’t want to do it, and I think I can’t learn well. This is the key, the beginning of progress, but most of them give up out of boredom under such circumstances. . Therefore, I feel that Confucius’s words are indeed remarkable.

Another point is the teaching attitude of “teaching others tirelessly”. It also looks easy but is difficult to do. Mencius said, “Get the world’s talents and educate them. "It's a joy." But if you "find the world's stupidest people and educate them, it's a pain!" Education is really boring sometimes. Especially the education of today's young people, the foundation is too poor since childhood, and it is almost necessary to start all over again. Laying the foundation. Therefore, a true educator must have the spirit of a religious person, love others and love the world, and must have the spirit of sacrifice to feed tigers and go into the sea to save people. It is also like using the mind-changing technique to forcefully take what is yours. , put this kind of mood into his mind. However, many scholars have knowledge, but they regard it as a secret that has not been passed down through the ages and refuse to teach others.

On the surface, these three sentences of Confucius, It is easy to see, but very difficult to do. Those who will serve as role models for future generations can make these few sentences into mottos. When they feel tired, mention these few words of Confucius, blush in their stomachs, and immediately correct themselves. After these three sentences, Confucius said: "What does it have to do with me?" Translated into vernacular, it means that I have no knowledge, I just pay attention everywhere, study silently, and memorize it by force; I never get tired of learning, and I never get tired of teaching. But apart from these three points, I understand nothing and have nothing. That’s what it means. But these three points are true knowledge, and it is difficult for all of us to achieve it, so I think this article is an extended commentary on the first "Xue Er".
