Zi Gong asked, "Is there a word that can be pursued for a lifetime?" Confucius said, "This is forgiveness!" ! Don't impose what you don't want on others. "

reading comprehension

When Confucius said to Ceng Zi that "my way is consistent" in Li Ren, Ceng Zi once summed it up as "Confucius' way, and only loyalty and forgiveness" took "forgiveness" as an important aspect of "learning from others".

In Yan Yuan, Zhong Gong asked Confucius what benevolence was, and Confucius also recommended "Don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you" as an important part of benevolence. In this chapter, the sage once again recommended the motto "Don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you" to Zigong, high flyers. People often say, "Look at your heart." Say it again. "People's hearts are all flesh." In fact, this is the practice of "don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you". The problem is that people in the world often do the opposite. Ordinary people just want others to do things they don't want to do; You can't sell things you don't want to others. On the other hand, what you want to do and what you love are not willing to share with others. So it's not "don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you". The root cause is that you seldom think of others, only yourself. After all, this is not a personal matter at work. In fact, we also see that in Gongye Chang, Zi Gong himself once said, "I don't want others to add me, and I don't want others to add me." This is the meaning of "don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you". Confucius immediately said, "Zi Gong, you didn't do it." But Zigong has to do this for the sake of life here. On the one hand, it shows that "don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you" is very important, on the other hand, it also shows that it is really difficult to do it, even the highest ruler of Confucius-Zi Gong. Therefore, "Don't do to others what you don't want others to do to you" is actually one of the top kung fu in Confucius' Confucianism, which is what we said earlier ("Gongye Chang"): "The Tao is difficult and unforgivable!"

Although the sky can't go up, but the heart yearns for it, it is impossible not to pursue it hard!
