"Lose a little bit to benefit the world, not with it; Serve the whole world, don't take it! ”

"Know who said no?" Seeing that his son was on the road, Hong Tao was very happy and began to drag words. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Now even if you stay up late and blind your eyes, it's worth it, these ideals have no chance to be realized in your life, if you can lie on the clouds and watch your son and grandson help you realize it, it should be a beautiful thing.

As for why he said that he was lying on the clouds instead of lying under the ground to watch, Hong Tao thought it was inevitable. The one in the sky, those things tossing themselves like this, definitely not planning to send themselves into the eighteenth layer of hell. It is estimated that they are looking for accomplices, to see if there are any talents who can mix with them, and then choose to play with others and toss others, which is the fun in the sky.

"It should be from "Liezi", it was said by a person named Yang Zhu. When I was a child, Uncle Wen taught me to read this book, but Uncle Wen didn't seem to have a high opinion of this person, saying that his thinking was too selfish, and if everyone was unwilling to pay and thought about themselves, wouldn't it be more difficult for the country and the government to function. Although Hong Jinhe does not have the experience in Hong Tao's mind, he has received a lot more traditional education than Hong Tao.

"Don't listen to your Uncle Wen, his own thoughts haven't taken shape yet. The reason why he and the mainstream culture of the Great Song Dynasty don't like Yang Zhu is not because what he said is unreasonable, but because his ideas are contrary to the ruling class like the Great Song Dynasty, so no matter whether what he says is reasonable or not, he must oppose it, otherwise how can the emperor and the court of the Great Song Dynasty rule the people? Remember, under a political system like the Great Song Dynasty, there is no right or wrong in things, only suitable for maintaining rule. If it is suitable, it will be vigorously promoted, and if it is not suitable, it will be beaten to death with a stick. Hong Tao's limited knowledge of ancient times basically came from later generations, and when it came to ancient times, he didn't read much of the books at that time. The reason is very simple, the typesetting, paper quality, fonts, and broken sentences do not conform to the reading habits of modern people, and there are many books that are simply manuscripts.

"You think he has a point?" Hong Jinhe didn't expect his father to discuss the thoughts of the ancients with him, and carefully pondered Yang Zhu's words.

"How do I think this person is selfish to the extreme, the only advantage is that he is not greedy, such a person will be good for the country?" It's a pity that after pondering for a long time, I tried my best to think about Yang Zhu, but I didn't find anything worthy of praise.

Mozi advocated love, and he believed that as long as it was beneficial to the people of the world, even if it polished the top of his head and broke the soles of his feet, he should do it. Yang Zhu advocated for me, even if plucking one of his hairs could be beneficial to the people of the world, he was not happy. Later, Mencius, a representative of Confucianism, used a dime to evaluate Yang Zhu's thoughts, which is the origin of this idiom. ”

In fact, he should also add a sentence in his original words, everyone does not lose a single bit, everyone is not good for the world, and the world is governed. As I understand it, his main point is not to make everyone extremely self-interested, but to call on everyone to take their rights seriously. Even in the name of the state, it cannot harm the interests of individuals, which is to harm the world at all, and not to do so; However, he also opposes harming the interests of the country and making profits for himself, which is to serve the whole world and not take it. ”

Yang Zhu believes that people can't harm others and benefit themselves, and they don't have to sacrifice themselves for others, then the world will be the same. But this kind of thinking is very unfavorable to the way of rule of the Great Song Dynasty, and of course it is not conducive to the Tang Dynasty, the Qin Dynasty and the like, so everyone deliberately ignores the second half of his sentence and only focuses on the first half of the sentence, so as to prove that this person's argument is wrong and despicable. This is called taking words out of context and lacks the spirit of scientific exploration. ”

"Actually, if you think about it carefully, does the current legal system and concept of checks and balances in the Golden River Empire come from this sentence? Within the empire, it is required to balance the interests of all parties as much as possible, and finally achieve a relative balance, which is not to make the people develop a habit of valuing their own interests without easily harming the interests of others. What is the great harmony in the world, to put it bluntly, it is to try to get closer to everyone as equal as possible within a certain rule. ”

"True equality is impossible, but relative equality is achievable. By doing so, the contradictions between people, between people and the government, and between people and society can be weakened and will not erupt violently. The advantage is that everyone can sit together relatively peacefully and resolve conflicts through negotiation, without having to take drastic actions, such as war. Flipping through the history books, which dynasty and which generation did not have a civil war? Which dynasty and which generation can die well? This is the result of suppressing contradictions. No matter how great the government's power is, contradictions will erupt after they accumulate to a certain extent, and this is an objective law. The difference is only that some dynasties have suppressed for a long time, and some dynasties have suppressed for a short time, and there is no difference in essence. Hong Tao's words were not original to him, and if it weren't for a friend of his father who was a professor of Chinese, he probably wouldn't even know who Yang Zhu was. However, this teacher's evaluation of Yang Zhu and his cognition of Yang Zhu's thoughts made Hong Tao feel very touched. As he grew older and saw more and more things, he felt more and more that this Yang Zhu classmate was not a traverser, otherwise how could he describe the thoughts of later generations so perfectly two thousand years ago.

“…… How can you really say that a controversial person can be turned into a big thinker in a few words. I heard that you are reusing the traitors in the Great Song Dynasty, and you want to take away Wen Hao, a careerist, as well, I really don't understand whether you are building the Great Song Dynasty or harming the Great Song Dynasty. If you tell outsiders what you have done, it is estimated that most people will think that you are the greatest powerful minister in history, and you will do anything for power. Even if what you say makes sense, do you plan to rehabilitate Yang Zhu, or do you plan to use his philosophical ideas to influence the people of the Great Song Dynasty? I don't think you can do these two things, didn't you tell us since you were a child, ten years is enough to govern a country, but thirty years is not enough to change the thinking of a generation. Hong Jinhe is really envious of his father's mouth, as long as he wants to, the dead can be said to be alive. However, whether Yang Zhu's philosophy is right or wrong does not seem to have anything to do with the current problems of the Great Song Dynasty, and he doesn't quite understand what his father and himself mean when they say these things.

"I take back this sentence now and change the minds of a generation, ten years is enough. I haven't tried it before, it's all just thought, but now that I've tried it, I'm going to correct my perception. Kid, do you know what is the fastest thing to change people's minds? It's not schools, it's not officials, it's not laws, it's not guns, it's all auxiliary measures, and there are only two ways to be the most direct and effective, one is dictatorship, and the other is religion! I want to promote Taoism in the Great Song Dynasty, it itself is very marketable in the Great Song Dynasty, and the royal families of all dynasties believe in it, and the resistance to promotion is smaller. However, the Taoism I promote needs to be improved, and this work will have to be completed by the Imperial Supervision Department for me, and I have no manpower and no time to train new Taoist leaders. "I really went around a big circle in the world, and I saw Europe ruled by Christianity, West Asia and North Africa ruled by Islam, America ruled by nature worship, and then I had the experience of the Heliosianism. Hong Tao felt that religion was indeed a weapon of the ruling class, and that he should also contribute to his own transformation of the Great Song Dynasty.

Faith is something that you can't touch or see, but it's still very useful at a critical moment. However, Hong Tao did not want to promote the overly xenophobic religious system of the Sun God Religion in the Great Song Dynasty, and it was not suitable for the land of the Great Song Dynasty. Buddhism is very conducive to internal rule, but unfortunately it has a very big side effect, that is, it will turn the people into sheep and lose their blood. The mainstream of the Ji \ Du \ Religion and the Yi \ Lan Religion is not in the Great Song Dynasty, such a big country and nation should always have its own set of things, so choose to choose, and the native Taoism has become the first choice.

But Taoism has a natural shortcoming, that is, it is too loose, too free, advocating self-cultivation, focusing on this life and this life, the deeper the faith, the more otherworldly, like to play in the secluded world. As far as the ruling class is concerned, the common people have cultivated and studied immortality on their own, and who will take care of the imperial court. Moreover, the common people can cultivate immortality, how can they reflect the dignity of the emperor, so Taoism naturally cannot be treated by the ruling class.

But then again, under a parliamentary monarchy, the policy of fooling the people is not absolutely necessary, or much less so. In the state of decentralization, the government is only a referee, whether the athlete is smart or not has little impact on the referee, or the athlete is smarter and the referee is more worry-free. In particular, under the premise that the two parties are elected to power, any policy mistake by the ruling party will become the target of attack by the opposition parties, and it will be too difficult to engage in methods to fool the people.

"The Imperial Supervision Department does have a department dedicated to the study of religion, but that is for the training of intelligence personnel, and there is no systematic research in this area, so how can it help you?" Hong Jinhe has never had much contact with the religious system since he was a child, and if there is, it is also Senya's Christianity, and he is really blind to the theory that Hong Tao said.

"It's not for the Ministry of Supervision to help me with religion, but for them to help me deceive people. I have a talent for religion myself, but it takes a whole team to deceive people on a large scale. I don't have these foundations in the Great Song Dynasty, and I can't care about doing this, the Imperial Supervision Department can just help, and by the way, I can also let the people of the Supervision Department infiltrate every corner of the Great Song Dynasty through religion, and there is no loss to the Empire. "Hong Tao didn't plan to talk too much about religious things with Hong Jinhe, let him take his own time, the Jinhe Empire doesn't need this kind of auxiliary measures, at least not for a short time.
