"The Analects of Confucius, Doctrine of the Mean, and Great Learning" was compiled by Confucius's disciples and his re-disciples. It is mainly in the style of quotations and dialogues, recording the words and deeds of Confucius and his disciples, and embodies Confucius' political opinions, ethical thoughts, moral concepts and educational principles. Together with "The Great Learning", "The Doctrine of the Mean", "Mencius", "The Book of Songs", "Shangshu", "Book of Rites", "Book of Changes" and "Spring and Autumn Annals", it is also known as the "Four Books and Five Classics". There are twenty chapters in the current version of The Analects. "The Great Learning" puts forward the three principles of enlightening morality, being close to the people, and striving for perfection. It also proposes eight items: studying things, seeking knowledge, sincerity, righteousness, self-cultivation, regulating the family, governing the country, and bringing peace to the world. Therefore, it has the important significance of transforming from an "inner sage" to an "outer king." "The Doctrine of the Mean" emphasizes "sincerity", regards "sincerity" as a category of ideological system, and regards the pursuit of "sincerity" as the criterion of "humanity". At the same time, it puts forward the learning process and cognitive methods of "learning extensively", "inquiring", "thinking carefully", "discriminating clearly" and "practicing sincerely".

A traditional cultural classic! Worth reading again

To this day, they still serve as important totems of Chinese people's spiritual beliefs and the traditional culture of the Chinese nation, playing an important role in education and cultural dissemination. Although great changes have taken place in the times, we can still obtain the moral laws and the spirit of learning from them, regulate our own behavior with the program of being virtuous, close to the people and striving for perfection, and take sincerity as the requirement of life.

"Zhu Xi's definition of "golden mean" is: "The middle one is impartial and has no fault or inferiority. Yong, ordinary. "Human nature is neither good nor evil. From the perspective of human nature, it is the origin of human nature and the basic wisdom of human beings. In modern words, it is the "critical point", which is the "golden mean" that is difficult to grasp." Each of us must pay attention to moderation in dealing with others, not to be too paranoid, and learn to use the water-like philosophy to combine hardness and softness.
I'm not very good at writing book reviews. I think good ones are good.
Study for the saints and emulate the forefathers
Confucius taught us: be kind-hearted, respect the elderly and love the young, be a gentleman, and do things well before speaking before speaking. These seemingly common principles, but few people can actually apply them. Words and deeds must be consistent with what is said. There are many people who use rhetoric and opportunism, but that is just self-comfort. If a person does not agree with his words, it will be difficult to take the right path.
The book "The Doctrine of the Mean" talks about many principles of life and taught me how to be a gentleman and a virtuous person. It also has some methods of governing the country and studying. I have learned a lot of knowledge and principles. I am grateful to the great sages for their wisdom and philosophy.

I like reading. I used to read a book for a long time. Now that I have listening and reading, it is so convenient! I like it very much
