Interpretation of the Sixth Chapter of Tao Te Ching
In study, work or life, we often have different feelings about certain things or people who have experienced different things. At this time, we can write a sentiment and record our feelings. In order to help students who can't write feelings, the following are six chapters of Tao Te Ching that I collected for you, hoping to help you.

In the sixth chapter of Tao Te Ching, there is a feeling of 1 that "Tao can be Tao, not surprising ..." The sound of reading echoed in the campus. Since the school launched the reading activity of "being friends with sages and walking with classics", there is a neat and rhythmic sound of reading on campus every day.

When the teacher held the Tao Te Ching for the first time and told us that it was the precious cultural heritage of our Chinese nation, I secretly made up my mind to study it seriously.

However, when the teacher led us to read the Tao Te Ching in a clear voice for the first time, I felt dull and uninterested in learning. Even so, I don't forget to read every day, and gradually I find that I like it. So every morning, with the singing of birds and the rising sun, I sit on the balcony and start reading in the morning while enjoying the fresh air. It opened a door to my heart and showed me how to be an upright person, a person who does not pursue fame and fortune, and a healthy and uplifting person from an early age.

After reading the Tao Te Ching, I gradually found myself careless in my original homework, thinking quietly and patiently, and the scribbled handwriting in my original homework became much more correct. From reading classic books, I also realized some principles of being a man. For example, in the article, "Those who know others are wise, and those who know themselves are clear; The winner is strong, and the loser is strong. "It tells us that a person should not only be able to defeat others, but also have the courage to defeat himself. "

Tao Te Ching has benefited me a lot. "Forever and ever. The reason why heaven and earth are so long is that they can live forever because they are not born. It puts saints and bodies first; Living outside your body. Not because of its selfless evil? Therefore, it can be private. " It means that heaven and earth can last forever because they don't live for themselves, they exist naturally, so they can last forever. Therefore, the sage put himself behind, but he was respected. He put himself outside, but he saved himself. Isn't it because saints are not selfish? That's why he is himself.

In dealing with competition, we should dare to meet challenges, treat failure and inequality with a normal heart, and change or adapt with appropriate methods, instead of blindly killing the larger foe. This will help you save yourself and achieve ultimate success. Only accumulation will flourish. Similarly, "inaction" is used to tolerate people in contemporary life. "All rivers run into the sea, with great tolerance, towering walls and materialistic justice."

In the sixth chapter of Tao Te Ching, I realized my own experience, which was extremely vain and taciturn. Everything works together, and I will see it again. Everything must be traced back to the source. In the final analysis, it is static and motionless. Life often speaks, and knowledge often speaks. I often don't know that I am a murderer. Know how to be patient, be patient for the public, be patient for the whole, all for the sky, the sky is the Tao, the Tao is long, and there is no body and no danger.

There are countless interpretations of this chapter in the past dynasties, but I think all of them are irrelevant, and there is no way to explain Laozi's thought and Tao Te Ching in depth. Starting from the fundamental point of Taoist self-cultivation, I have come to a new theory as follows:

This chapter focuses on "to the extreme, to be quiet and faithful", and the full text is based on this. I don't understand "to the extreme, to be faithful with quietness", and the following text explanation is only far-fetched. Laozi extended his interpretation of the common way of the world from the realm of Taoist practice of "looking back inside" First of all, "emptiness" and "quietness" are both opposites and unity, which is a state in which you have me and I have you. "Virtual" is ethereal and the experience is sporadic; "Quiet" means quiet and convergence. The meaning of "ambition" can be understood from "hollowing out one's heart" The process of Taoist practice and self-cultivation starts from ethereal, from ethereal to all bones of limbs, all bones of limbs are ethereal, without time and space restrictions and vacuum, which can fill the house, the sky and the universe, but today is ancient. The process moves or forks, so there is no self, no body and no world. This "pole" is infinite, or octupole, or the universe is submerged.

The process of "quietness" begins with the concept, and the "observer" holds a unitary view, so as to make his own thoughts calm, converge to his own point from time and space and external space, and reach a certain state of balance, stability and certainty. This "Benedict" is deterministic, minimal, or as constant as a needle tip, seamless as nothing.

Therefore, Lao Tzu has the idea that "all things work together, and I will watch it". Everything must be traced back to the source. "Feelings." Complexity "and" returning to the original "are the focus of this paper. "Emptiness" and "quietness" are two hands that Taoism must learn in self-cultivation. For example, "Yin and Yang, Being and Nothing" are both opposite and unified. There is nothing, but nothing. Empty is expansion, and extremely empty is "work"; Static is regression, returning to this moment is "recovery", and static is "returning to the roots". As far as the cultivation of kung fu is concerned, the process of "emptiness and quietness" is like the ups and downs of Buddhist mind. It starts in emptiness and ends in quietness, and whether there is mutual existence or not has the original purpose of Buddhism and Taoism.

After this chapter, Laozi's extended analysis of heaven and man started from the sense of emptiness of self-cultivation and never left a trace. This is the ultimate principle of Tao!

Therefore, I admire Song Changxing of the Qing Dynasty, saying, "If you make it extreme, there is nothing, and emptiness is extreme." : "single-minded and persistent, silent and motionless, silent and honest, quiet and motionless." But all the explanations are not detailed enough to understand and comprehend from the perspective of cultivation. If you think that Laozi's thoughts have nothing to want, you should understand them from the original works, instead of demonstrating them according to the thinking of the times.

The sixth chapter of Tao Te Ching feels and experiences 3 Han Hengheng; In this era when WeChat and QQ connect you and me, there may be friends in everyone's circle of friends who have a net name of "being kind as water", or colleagues who have personal signatures saying "The sage's way can't be fought, and the husband can't be fought, so the world can't fight with it" and "Zhi Zhi can be dangerous, and the husband can't be profitable, so it can be hidden and changed". This grand occasion is enough to show the great influence of Laozi's thought on the Chinese nation. More than two thousand years ago, a hundred schools of thought contended and put forward their own ideas of governing the country and protecting the people. These ideas are still the treasures of our nation.

Laozi said, "Good is like water, and water is good for everything without dispute". The core point is to benefit life and the whole people, while ignoring fame and power. Laozi said: "Heaven is beneficial and harmless; The sage's way is "inaction" if you don't argue, but if you don't violate the law. Laozi also said: "Don't take the world without taking it, take the world without taking it." Managers should not violate the law and discipline. If managers are often bold and constantly make troubles to show their power, it will be difficult for enterprises to govern. Laozi said that "governing by doing nothing", managers should conform to the laws of nature and seek practical ways in a realistic way in order to "have no medicine to cure".

"Staff sergeant is diligent." Laozi also stressed that grasping the law can be used to guide practice, not just to talk about it.

For enterprises, product quality is one of the key factors to open the market. For example, through unremitting efforts, Maanshan Iron & Steel Co., Ltd. has overcome five core difficulties, namely, more personalized demand for automobile plates, short renewal cycle of automobile plates, extremely high surface requirements for automobile plates, great production difficulties, auto production line in automobile production, extremely high quality and stability requirements for steel plates, long automobile production process, many technical difficulties and high integration of reading notes. Now, as the mainstream supplier of domestic automobile panels, it has gradually opened up the market, gained more users and won a better reputation. In the process of upgrading the company's production line and cold-rolled products, a relatively complete equipment system has been established, and lean management of equipment has been promoted. By strengthening basic management and professional training, the transformation of equipment from repair to control to repair to pipe has been realized, ensuring the stable and lean operation of equipment and providing a strong guarantee for the quality stability of high-end products such as silicon steel, household appliances and automobile outer panels.

Doing nothing during the day, can't sleep well! If you can't contribute to your work, it is empty and painful. We follow the law, seek truth from facts, overcome difficulties and innovate to create efficiency. If you have a job, you have a responsibility, and if you have a responsibility, you have to bear it. "inaction" is the method to guide our work, and "inaction" is to spur us to achieve our goals.

Tao Te Ching is an enlightening masterpiece of China's simple dialectics in ancient times, which opened the curtain for human beings to explore the laws of nature for thousands of years. It is of great benefit to guide our life to treat it dialectically, take its essence and discard its dross.

With his profound insights and open-minded spirit, Lao Tzu explained to the world how to treat people, how to manage scientifically, how to cultivate one's morality, how to seek knowledge, how to govern the country, and so on, telling us that no matter what we do, we must follow the Tao (that is, the law of things) and not have too many desires. "People who acted according to law in ancient times", the sky was clear, the ground was flat, and so on. God's respect for law can be clear, the earth's respect for law can be flat, God's respect for law can be flat, rivers can be full of respect for law, and all natural things can be endless, and princes and kings can win the world by respecting law. "Its cause" can be inferred. "When the sky is clear, there will be cracks; If there is no peace in the territory, it will be frightening; God has no spirit and will be afraid of rest; If the valley is not surplus, it will be exhausted; Everything is lifeless and will be destroyed; Marquis is not righteous and must be afraid. " It is said that if the weather is not clear, it may explode, if the ground is not peaceful, it may collapse, if God does not appear, it may disappear, if there is no water, the rivers may dry up, and if everything cannot grow, it may perish. If you pursue too much and desire too much, you will get tired of life; Be quiet and do nothing, and you will be content, otherwise it will bring disaster.

Laozi's Tao Te Ching put forward his thought of governing the country and protecting the people by dialectical philosophical method. The first half of Tao Te Ching mainly discusses the strategy of governing the country, and the second half mainly discusses how to govern people.

In the first paragraph, "Tao can be Tao, but not constant, and its name can be named, but not constant." In other words, Tao, as the origin of the world, can be described in words, but it is not eternal. "A name can be named, not a constant name." It is a name that can be called, not a fixed name. "Unknown, the beginning of heaven and earth; Fame is the mother of all things. " That is to say, when heaven and earth first appeared, there was no name, but when everything gradually appeared, it had its own name (but it was not eternal). "So there is always a desire to see its strangeness, and there is always a desire to see its embarrassment." It means that we often explore its mystery when we have no desire, and sometimes we explore its mud ball. "The two have the same name." In other words, both being and being come from Tao, but with different names. "The same is mysterious" is also profound and subtle, which is difficult to grasp. "Mysterious, mysterious, the gate of Wan Qi." What I mean here is that this mysterious and mysterious way is the door to all mysteries.

From the very beginning, Laozi introduced "no desire to view the metaphysics, but desire to view the metaphysics" with concrete and abstract "Tao", that is, he wrote that the best way to understand the metaphysics is to achieve "no desire". This is similar to the "pure inaction" he advocated. "No desire" is the main idea that runs through the Tao Te Ching.

Laozi believes that human nature is good and pure. This ugly human behavior should be an abnormal phenomenon that human nature is distorted by unreasonable and imperfect social system. Therefore, Lao Tzu insists on discarding the false and retaining the true, retaining the goodness and beauty in human nature, and abandoning everything that causes people's greed. Today, his political thoughts seem difficult to understand. In his ideal society, people are developed in limbs, simple in mind, have no luxury for material enjoyment, and are not bothered by various dazzling cultures or knowledge. He is a historical recycler. In his eyes, it is natural for people to be in a free and relaxed social environment, which is obviously more in line with human nature than a social system full of crisis, struggle, murder and conspiracy, although material civilization is developed.

The "inaction" he emphasized is to conform to nature, and its effectiveness in governing society is obviously much more reasonable and powerful than restraining people's social behavior with laws, regulations, systems, morality and knowledge. This is the basic meaning of "doing nothing without doing anything". This social ideal of Laozi is closely related to his "Tao" theory.

Out of a deep understanding of the laws of nature, Laozi regards the movement of conforming to the Tao as the highest criterion that human political system, social life and moral norms should follow. What is embodied in his political thought is his advocacy of "governing by doing nothing" and "teaching without words". The so-called "rule of inaction" is not inaction, but emphasizes that human social behavior should conform to nature and be suitable for the movement of Tao. Specifically, it requires the rulers to give people a relaxed living and production environment and not to interfere in order to conform to nature. In this comfortable living environment, ordinary people will naturally feel the benefits of this policy without suffering from tyranny or worrying about heavy taxes, thus achieving the educational effect of "teaching by example".

Governing the country is like this, how to govern the people? Kind, soft and firm.

Laozi's thought of governing the country and protecting the people in Tao Te Ching has far-reaching influence and still has important reference significance.

In today's society, life and work are fast and stressful, and people's temper becomes anxious. If you can be kind and gentle, you can be calm. If you are calm and natural, your life and work will be very comfortable and your efficiency will be greatly improved. Not only that, kindness and gentleness can also help to deal with the relationship between friends and colleagues, so that they can live in harmony and have a lot of sunshine.

Recently, I am reading the Tao Te Ching written by Lao Zi, a great man in the Spring and Autumn Period. Because this book is profound and contains profound knowledge, I can't fully understand it yet, but I still feel its mystery, such as Laozi's emphasis on Tao and morality, the truth of "being as good as water", the character of water, and the relationship between "being" and "not being".

I like this book very much, and I like the truth inside. For example, Lao Tzu said, "Tao can be Tao, not surprising." It means that if "Tao" can be expressed in words, it is not really "Tao"; "Tao" cannot be expressed in words, but must be understood with the heart, because it is not always "Tao". The book Tao Te Ching is about Tao and virtue. "Tao is born, and virtue is cultivated." Laozi believes that people with excellent moral character never pursue formal "virtue"; And those who take advantage never give up the pursuit of formal "virtue", which is the real lack of "virtue"

Then I also talked about "inaction". What is inaction? Laozi emphasized "doing nothing but not doing it", and doing nothing is a great achievement. How to understand? "Doing nothing" means doing nothing in one aspect and then making room for other more useful things, which is "promising" and "promising". To put it bluntly, "inaction" is to avoid conflicts and do what you like for your own freedom.

"Kindness is like water", "A benevolent person enjoys Leshan, a wise person enjoys water", Lao Tzu love the water and sage Kong Aishui. "Good as water" refers to the highest goodness between heaven and earth. "Good as water" comes from the eighth chapter of Tao Te Ching, and there is another sentence in this chapter: The husband is indisputable, so there is nothing special about it. Because we don't argue with others, there is nothing wrong. In addition, the seventy-eighth chapter of Tao Te Ching also talked about water: "The water in the world is not weak, but it cannot be won if it is strong." There is nothing weaker than water in the world, and no one is better at tackling difficulties than him. There is an idiom called "pervasive", which embodies the power of water. Water flows downwards, because it flows downwards, so it is full of power. Whenever there is a gap, it will take advantage of it.

Lao Tzu also likes to mention "yes" and "no". "If I think it is profitable, I feel useless." "Being" is visible to the naked eye, which can be beneficial to people, and "Nothing" can also be used by people. How do you say this? For example, in ancient times, the wheel of a car was supported by 30 spokes, and the empty shell was "nothing", but if it was "yes", it was not "nothing", then it lost its purpose and was no longer a car. For another example, the middle of the bowl is empty, which means "no" If it is a "thing" or a solid, it will lose the purpose of the bowl and become waste. For example, if the house is hollow, it means "nothing". If it is solid, it will lose its use. In short, "having" can benefit people, and "having nothing" can also be used by people. In addition, in Chinese painting, if the place where the pen is written is "you" and the place where the pen is not written is "nothing", then "nothing" sets off "you" and "you" sets off "nothing". Nothing is inseparable from existence, and existence is inseparable from existence. It's impossible to make a painting completely black or blank, is it? Moreover, from the aesthetic point of view, the "nothingness" in the painting is useful, giving people an ethereal feeling, like "…" in an article, leaving a blank for readers to imagine, which is also "nothingness". In addition, "you" and "nothing" have another meaning: "you" stands for life and "nothing" stands for death. Whether they match each other or not, life and death go hand in hand. Life is death, and death is life. Without life, there is no death. How can there be life if there is no death? Once "born" means "death" in the future; And "death" means "life". From this point of view, there is a lot of knowledge between "being" and "not being".

Tao Te Ching is a great masterpiece with unprecedented classics. It is the second classic since I read Disciples Rules, which inspires life. The truth in the book, I feel that I will understand it deeper with my age.

Life time is limited, so we should take the time to read more such classic books. Tao Te Ching is such a classic. It is of great benefit to chew and savor it carefully.
