The wisdom of Confucius disciples is superior: from Confucius' four requirements

孔子弟子智慧超群：来自孔子四点要求

Confucius' education is different from that of others. His four requirements enable his disciples to have the world in mind and benefit the common people.

----Zhuge Changqing

amitabha.

Blessed life is limitless.

Confucius, the supreme teacher of Dacheng.

We read the history and marveled at the Chinese culture.

Take Confucianism for example, if you pay a little attention to it, you will find the feelings of sages and sages of Confucianism.

Confucius has three thousand disciples and seventy-two sages.

Confucius used his wisdom all his life to teach students in accordance with their aptitude, and to teach them without discrimination, so that his disciples were superior in wisdom, literary and military strategies, and benefited the society and the country.

Confucius (551 BC - 479 BC), Confucius was named Qiu, and the name was Zhongni.

A great educator, thinker and politician in Chinese history, and the founder of the Confucian school.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, people from Chou (now Qufu, Shandong Province) of the State of Lu. He founded private schools, recruited and educated disciples, and founded a moral theory with "benevolence" as the core. His teaching remarks and dialogues with his disciples were compiled into the Analects of Confucius, which will be handed down through the ages. Since the Han Dynasty, Confucius theory has become the mainstream of traditional culture for more than 2000 years, and its influence is extremely far-reaching.

Zhuge Changqing's research found that Confucius disciples are actually people who have the world in mind and benefit the common people.

Some have become prime ministers, some have become Confucian businessmen, some have become educators, some have become civil ministers and military generals, some have become the commander of the national army, some have become Confucian masters.

All emperors of the past dynasties regarded Confucius as "the supreme master of Dacheng".

Why can Confucius disciples achieve something?

Zhuge Changqing's research found that there are three reasons:

First, the disciples come from all over the country and sincerely respect and learn from Confucius teachers.

Second, Confucius taught students in accordance with their aptitude without discrimination, which made them leap forward.

Third, the disciples benefited from the four requirements of Confucius, namely, "to be determined by the Tao, to be guided by virtue, to be guided by benevolence, and to be guided by art" (summarized as "morality, benevolence and art").

Confucius put forward these four theories to make disciples become sages of life immediately.

Confucius disciples, based on these four theories, have made great efforts to practice and make contributions.

In the Analects of Confucius: Shuer Chapter, when talking about the cultivation of Confucianism, Confucius said:

Aim at Tao, according to virtue, according to benevolence, and travel in art.

Aspiration to the Tao and virtue is the principle of cultivating morality in a gentleman.

Relying on benevolence and traveling in art - ---- is the way to talk about the external morality of a gentleman.

Zhuge Changqing summarized these four requirements into four words "morality and benevolence". How to understand it?

Zhuge Changqing believes that in a nutshell, there are four things to be done in life and work:

One is Tao. In ambition, we should follow the principles of heaven, humanity and the earth;

The second is morality. Always remember to do good and accumulate virtue on the way of life;

The third is benevolence. Start from caring for the common people and benefiting the society;

The fourth is art. You should be knowledgeable and proficient in the six skills.

Zhuge Changqing believes that these four requirements are simply the ruler for shaping sages.

Confucius told his disciples that these four requirements are also my own requirements in my life. I hope you can do it conscientiously.

So, what he did became 72 sages.

Some predestined people said: these four are too simple, and I can do it.

So congratulations, you have the conditions of sages.

In fact, sages and sages are very simple. They just follow the law of heaven, have a good heart and accumulate virtue, and benefit the society.

From this sentence, we can see that the purpose of Confucius to educate his disciples is also to ask them to finally understand the truth of life and the universe and gain true wisdom. Only in this way can disciples really save themselves, and thus understand how to help others and save themselves.

Aspiration to the Tao and virtue is the principle of cultivating morality in a gentleman.

Relying on benevolence and traveling in art - ---- is the way to talk about the external morality of a gentleman.

"Aspiration to the Tao" means that a gentleman should take the ultimate goal of understanding the Tao, abiding by the principles of heaven, humanity and the earth. In ambition, the highest ideal is to be conscious of him.

"According to virtue" means that in the heart, we should have the virtue of caring for others and benefiting the society. Then, gradually expand this mood. A person can perceive others, even other things, and the greater the scope of integration with himself, it can be said that the virtue he holds is also greater. The more pure his motive is to help the world and save the people. Only in this way can love, love things, love society, love the country, and love the whole world be a false statement.

Aspiration to the Tao and virtue is the principle of cultivating morality in a gentleman.

Relying on benevolence and traveling in art - ---- is the way to talk about the external morality of a gentleman.

"Relying on benevolence" means that a gentleman should conduct himself in the world, taking love and love as the criterion, and benefiting people and things as the target.

"Traveling in art" means that a gentleman should master as much knowledge and skills as possible so as to bring concrete and effective help to others, society, spirit and material in a timely and appropriate manner.

The art of "traveling in art" refers to the six arts of "etiquette, music, shooting, imperial, calligraphy, and counting" in the Confucius era. As far as modern division is concerned.

"Etiquette" includes knowledge of philosophy, politics, diplomacy, education, etiquette, etc.

"Music" includes knowledge and skills in music, dance, art, etc.

"Shooting" refers to archery, art of war, military and martial arts.

"Yu" refers to various driving and operating skills.

"Book" refers to literature, history and self-cultivation.

"Number" includes knowledge of mathematics, science and economics.

As a Confucian gentleman, you must have a basic understanding or mastery of the six aspects of knowledge and skills mentioned above. As for in-depth understanding and mastery, we can focus on it according to personal qualifications and causes.

The "six arts" seem to have a lot of content, but in the fundamental sense, they all have something in common. If we can understand what Confucius said, "consistent". It will be quick and easy to grasp the key points. At this time, you can also really do it. You can swim in the ocean of all kinds of knowledge without being addicted to them.

孔子的教育与众不同，他的四点要求，使得弟子们胸怀天下，造福苍生。

---- 诸葛长青

  阿弥陀佛。

  福生无量天尊。

  大成至圣先师孔子。

  我们翻阅历史，对中华文化赞叹不已。

  拿儒家来说，稍微关注一点，就会发现儒家思想的圣贤情怀。

  孔子弟子三千，贤者七十二。

  孔子用一生智慧，因材施教、有教无类，使得弟子们智慧超群、文韬武略、造福社会、栋梁国家。

   孔子(前551-前479)，孔子名丘，字仲尼。

  中国历史上伟大的教育家、思想家和政治家，儒家学派的创始人。

  春秋时期鲁国陬邑(今山东曲阜)人。他创办私学，招收并教育弟子，创立了以“仁”为核心的道德学说。他教学的言论以及与弟子们的对话被汇集编纂成《论语》一书，千古传诵。自汉代以后，孔子学说成为两千余年传统文化的主流，影响极其深远。

  诸葛长青研究发现，孔子弟子们竟然多是胸怀天下、造福苍生之人。

  有的成为宰相、有的成为儒商、有的成为教育家、有的成为文臣武将、有的成为国家军队统帅、有的成为儒学大师......。

  而历代帝王都把孔子奉为“大成至圣先师”。

  孔子弟子们为何能够有所成就呢？

   诸葛长青研究发现，原因有三：

  一是弟子来自全国，对孔子老师的真诚尊敬、真心学习。

  二是孔子有教无类、因材施教，使得弟子们有所飞跃。

  三是弟子得益于孔子提出的“志于道，据于德，依于仁，游于艺”四点要求（概括为“道德仁艺”）。

  孔子这四大理论提出，使弟子们立马成为人生之圣贤。

  孔子弟子们，依据这四大理论，纷纷精进修行，建功立业。

   在《论语：述而篇》里，谈到儒者的修养时，孔子说：

  志于道，据于德，依于仁，游于艺。

  志于道，据于德----是讲君子内修道德的原则。

  依于仁，游于艺----是讲君子外用道德的方式。

  这四点要求，诸葛长青概括为四个字“道德仁艺”。如何理解呢？

  诸葛长青认为，简单一点说就是，不论做人还是做事都要做到四点：

  一是道。在志向上要追求遵循天道、人道、地道；

  二是德。在人生道路上要时刻记住行善积德；

  三是仁。起心动念要从关爱苍生、造福社会出发；

  四是艺。自己要博学多才、精通六艺。

  诸葛长青认为这四点要求，简直就是塑造圣贤的尺子。

  孔子当年，告诉弟子，我这四条要求，也是我自己一生的自我要求。希望你们能够认真做到。

  于是乎，做到的成了72圣贤。

  有的有缘者说：这四条太简单了，我也能做到。

  那么恭喜你，你具备圣贤条件了。

  实际上，圣贤很简单，只不过是遵循天道、心善积德、造福社会罢了。

  从这句话里，我们可以看出，孔子教化弟子的目的，也是要求弟子，最终彻悟人生宇宙的真相，得真智慧。唯有如此，弟子们，才可能真正拯救自己，从而也懂得，如何帮助别人，拯救自己。

　　志于道，据于德----是讲君子内修道德的原则。

  依于仁，游于艺----是讲君子外用道德的方式。

　　“志于道”是说，君子为学，当以悟道，遵守天道、人道、地道为最终目的。在志向上，以自觉觉他为最高理想。

　　“据于德”是指，在心灵的深处，要有关爱别人、造福社会的德。然后，再把这种心境，逐渐扩大。一个人，能感知到他人、乃至它物，与自己是一体的范围越大，可以说，他所据守的德果，也就越大。其济世救民的动机，也就越纯。唯有如此，爱人、爱物、爱社会、爱国家，乃至爱全天下，才不会是一句，自欺欺人的妄言。

　　志于道，据于德----是讲君子内修道德的原则。

  依于仁，游于艺----是讲君子外用道德的方式。

　　“依于仁”是说，君子为人处世，以爱人爱物为准绳，以利人利物为标的。

　　“游于艺”是说，君子要尽可能多地掌握，各种知识与技能，以便于，适时、适机地给他人、给社会，在精神上、物质上，带来具体而切实有效的帮助。

　　“游于艺”的艺，在孔子时代是指“礼、乐、射、御、书、数”这六艺。就现代的分科而言。

　　“礼”，包括哲学、政治、外交、教育、礼仪等方面的知识。

　　“乐”，包括音乐、舞蹈、美术等方面的知识与技艺。

　　“射”，指射箭、兵法、军事、武功。

　　“御”，指各种驾驶、操作技能。

　　“书”，指文学、历史、自身修养。

　　“数”，包括数学、科学与经济方面知识。

　　对于上面所提六个方面的知识与技能，作为一个儒家君子，都必须要有基本的了解或掌握。至于深入地了解和精通，可根据个人的资质与因缘，有所侧重。

　　这“六艺”看起来内容很多，但在根本的道理上，它们都有相通的地方。如果能明了孔子所说“一以贯之”的道理。那学起来，就会很快、很容易抓住重点。这时，你也可以真正做到，优游徜徉于各种知识的海洋，而不被它们沉溺。
