Chapter 2239 (2/2)
It's not a matter of ability, it's not a matter of talent, it's a lack of accumulation.
Whether it is the accumulation of knowledge, life experience or horizons, it takes time step by step. Even King Wen of Zhou or Kong Sheng can only make a blockbuster in his later years and become a saint.
What does Fang Yun rely on?
Zong Wenxiong looked stiff and said slowly, ”the golden mean” In Chinese, zisizi has the theory of three knowing and three doing things. The first is ”knowing by birth”, the second is ”learning by learning”, and the last is ”knowing by difficulty”. The three doing things are ”doing things in peace”, ”doing things in profit” and ”doing things reluctantly”. Kong Sheng himself said that if he could not reach the boundary known by birth, it was just learning and knowing. It seems that Fang Xusheng is afraid that he was born to know. ”
The great Confucians didn't know how to refute.
Three knowledge and three actions is one of the Confucian evaluation systems.
Being born to know is the ideal state and the holy of nature. You know everything when you are born. However, such people have never appeared. Confucius said that this is the highest level in order to motivate students and avoid students' complacency.
Learning and knowing is Kong Sheng's evaluation of himself. Through active and unremitting efforts, he has achieved success in learning and achieved wisdom. Initiative is the core of learning and knowing.
Finally, it is ”difficult to know”. When you encounter personal difficulties, or find yourself insufficient, you have to learn. Finally, you know that this is poor.
Among the three elements, doing it safely is to do it for peace of mind. The extended meaning is to obey the original heart, not fake foreign things, and take the initiative to do it and practice it.
It is because of external temptations, such as fame and wealth, that we do it for profit, which is slightly worse than doing it for safety, but we still have the initiative intention.
Reluctantly, do it when you have to do it. It is almost forced, and there is little active will.
However, the judgment made in the golden mean is essentially the same as long as it reaches the state of ”knowledge”.
Whether it is safe, profitable or reluctantly, as long as it is done, it is essentially the same.
In the doctrine of the mean, the three knowing and three doing originally only refers to learning and practicing the ”five ways” such as the way of kings and officials, the way of father and son, the way of couples, the way of brothers and friends, and the ”Three Virtues” such as wisdom, benevolence and courage, but it can be extended to learning everything, practicing everything, knowing everything and completing everything.
Three knowledge comes from Confucius. Confucius originally said that ”learning by birth, learning by learning” and ”learning by difficulty”. Learning by difficulty is to learn after encountering difficulties. In Confucius' view, even if you can't learn, you can accept it as long as you learn, which is only slightly worse than him.
Zisizi finished mentioning the three knowledge and three lines, and Confucius said after ”learning from difficulties”, if ”learning from difficulties”, he would be the most inferior person, which is a rare derogatory remark of Confucius.
Kong Sheng is equally superior to gentlemen and villains, adults and villains, scholars and people. He distinguishes them strictly according to ”Rites” and has no meaning of discrimination. However, when talking about people who are sleepy and don't learn, his tone is obviously full of personal feelings and criticizes this behavior.
The reason why all the great Confucians are silent is that after Zong Wenxiong said that Fang Yun was born and knew, they all feel like people who are sleepy but don't learn. The gap is too big.
A moment later, Zong Wenxiong couldn't help asking, ”Fang Xusheng, where is your annotation? When will it be written?”
The rest of the Confucianism didn't want Fang Yun to expose his strength, but they all looked forward to Fang Yun saying it.
”It's almost a step to the mountain and sea given by God.” Fang Yun smiled and changed the topic.
