Tao Yuanming was a poet, lyricist and essayist in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.

He retired to the countryside, enjoyed reading, and had unique views on reading.

he advocates "study hard, but not seek for great understanding".

In the Biography of Mr. Wuliu, I wrote: "Quiet and quiet, don't admire Rong Li. Good at reading, not asking for much understanding. Every time I know something, I will happily forget to eat. "

here, "study hard, don't ask for much understanding" means that although you study hard, you don't give tedious exegesis.
