Records of Biography: Engraved Edition in the Early Sixth Year of Longqing's Sixth Year in the Ming Dynasty, the Original Appearance of a Classic That Has Been Dusty for More Than 400 Years

"Zhuan Xilu" is a collection of quotations and letters from Wang Yangming, the master of philosophy in the Ming Dynasty. It embodies the core views of Yangming's psychology and is the most classic must-read for beginners to understand Yangming's psychology. ◆"Heart is reason": The best code of conduct is actually in the heart of each of us. When encountering problems, instead of worrying about it, it is better to listen to the original voice in the heart. ◆ "To Conscience": Everyone has an innate sense of morality and judgment, but they are blinded by acquired habits and selfish desires. If you can restore and follow your natural conscience, it will not be difficult to gain inner peace. ◆ "Unity of knowledge and action": Human cognition and practice are inseparable. Only by unifying the two can we avoid the disease of blindly acting or empty talk and all difficulties will be easily solved. It is precisely because Yangming's philosophy of mind contains the supreme wisdom of "tranquility within, invincibility without resistance" that Zeng Guofan, the most famous minister of the late Qing Dynasty, Sun Yat-sen who ended China's two thousand years of imperial rule, Liang Qichao, the leader of the Reform Movement of 1898 and the New Culture Movement, Ito Hirobumi, the hero of Japan's Meiji Restoration, all highly praised "Chuan Xi Lu". The late Chinese classics master Qian Mu even listed the book as one of the "must-read books for everyone in China".
