Synopsis

"Lu Shi Chun Qiu", also known as "Lu Lan". The book is mainly based on Taoist thoughts, and integrates the thoughts of Confucianism, Taoism, Mohism, Legalism, Military, Agriculture, Zongheng, Yin and Yang, etc., So it was included in the miscellaneous family system by later generations. "Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals" is divided into twelve chapters, eight chapters, and six treatises, with a total of twenty-six volumes, one hundred and sixty chapters, and more than 200,000 words. Due to space limitations, this book selects nearly a hundred incisive and profound philosophical quotes from the original text of more than 200,000 words, supplemented by many classic cases, in order to provide an in-depth interpretation of "Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals" and present to readers the wisdom and strategies in many aspects of health preservation, education, military affairs, self-cultivation, and country governance in the original work.

Reader comments

This book is rich in content, covering wisdom in health care, education, military and other fields. The stories and cases in the book are interesting and instructive. For example, "It is better to be rich and ignorant than to be poor and humble." It made me understand that wealth does not necessarily bring happiness, and we must maintain a normal mind. Moreover, the book also mentioned the concept of "generousness, kindness and prohibition of killing", which touched me very much. I think this book is worth reading and can teach us a lot about how to behave in the world.
