From The Doctrine of the Mean: "Be knowledgeable, interrogate, think carefully, distinguish clearly and stick to it. Yes, Fu Neng of learning, Fu CuO also; There are questions, problems and measures; There are Fu Si and Fu Dezhi's thoughts, while Fu CuO also
There are Fu Bian, Fu Ming and Fu CuO; There are blessings, blessings, blessings. If a person can do it, he will have a hundred; if a person can do it ten times, he will have a thousand. Can do this, stupid is wise, soft is strong. "
Translation:
We should study extensively, ask questions seriously, think carefully, distinguish clearly and practice faithfully. Either don't learn, or don't stop learning. Either don't ask or don't stop if you don't understand. Either you don't think or you don't understand. Either you don't distinguish, and you won't stop until you distinguish clearly.
Either you don't implement it, you implement it, and you won't stop if you are not loyal enough. If others can do it once, I will spend a hundred times, and if others can do it ten times, I will spend a thousand times. If you can really do this, you will become smart even if you are stupid, and you will become strong even if you are weak.

In-depth understanding:
"erudite, interrogative, thoughtful, discerning and practical." This is about several levels of learning, or several progressive stages. "erudition" means that in order to learn, we must first search widely and cultivate rich and exuberant curiosity. Without curiosity, the desire to learn disappears and erudition becomes impossible.
"Bo" also means broad and inclusive. Only by being broad and inclusive can we be inclusive, learn with a world vision and an open mind, and truly be "tolerant and generous", and then "love the masses and be kind to others". So erudition can be the first stage of learning. After this stage, learning is a rootless tree and passive water.
"Interrogation" is the second stage. If you don't know anything, you should ask questions to the end and doubt what you have learned. After asking questions, you should carefully examine and analyze them through your own ideological activities, otherwise what you have learned will not be used for yourself, but for "careful thinking." "Demonstration" is the fourth stage. Learning is becoming clearer and clearer. If you don't argue, the so-called "erudition" will be mixed, and it is difficult to distinguish between true and false.
"Pursuit" is the last stage of learning, that is, since you have learned something, you must work hard to implement what you have learned, so that you can finally implement what you have learned and achieve "unity of knowledge and action". "Dedication" means loyalty, firmness, singleness and perseverance. Only people with clear goals and firm will can truly "persevere".
Taking "erudition and perseverance" as the school motto is not just taking the words "erudition" and "perseverance", but the internal unity, connection and interaction process from "erudition" to "perseverance" including "interrogation, careful thinking and discernment". Civil affairs people should be "old and old, and people are old; We are still young, we are still young. It is our responsibility to "be a family in the world". Unless we have extraordinary skills, we can't shoulder this heavy responsibility.
Only by taking "being knowledgeable and persevering" as the way of learning can we learn something, achieve something and make use of it, and "loving the people and being kind" will not become a slogan and become a mere formality.
