Chapter 710: A Spark Can Fire a Prairie Fire
"Life is just a life process, did your husband teach you?" Fang Jishi asked.
"This?"
"The Taoist said! Man, like all things, has evolved. So! Life is just a life process. Man, like all things, lives for the sake of living. Bear! We can't avoid it! Die! We can't avoid it either! We can't decide our own life and not come into this world. Nor can we allow ourselves to live forever in this world. Isn't it? ”
"This?"
"So! Taoists say! If it comes, it will be safe! ”
"If you come, you will be safe?"
"The Taoist said! Now that we're here, let's live well! There are still decades in life. It's not long to say it's long, and it's not short to say it's short. Our lives, in fact, are not so boring. Our lives! Experienced infancy, adolescence, youth, prime of life and old age! There are different content in different age groups, isn't it?
For example! When we were in the womb of our mothers, our parents pinned our hopes on us. In infancy, we were loved by our parents and elders. In our teenage years, we have the joy of freedom. In our youth, we socialize with the opposite sex, find a life partner, and then start a family. Afterwards! We have our own children and offspring, and we have become parents and elders. And then later! We are too old to work, and we accept the support of our children and grandchildren. So! Our lives are very rich.
So! Taoists think! We should live for ourselves. Then we live for our families, and then we live for our families, groups, societies, and countries.
And your sir! It seems that what you teach is not to live for yourself, but to live for this society and for the country. Think about it, don't you? Are you putting the cart before the horse? Didn't start from the perspective of people, human nature? Isn't it? As if born to live for the country, the king, and others? Isn't it? ”
"This?" Duanmu Ci repeated the old words and asked, "We all live for ourselves, and we all take care of each other." So! Will this world continue to be chaotic like this? ”
"This society needs to be educated! But! You can't force your opinions, your thoughts! You know what I mean? ”
"Not yet? Not yet? Or to promote! ”
"You can't force promotion! It's about the people voluntarily accepting it! Got it? ”
"What does it mean to accept voluntarily?" Duanmu Ci asked.
"Accept it voluntarily! You think it's right, and you stick to it! If you think it's wrong, you resist it! And forced promotion is! Whether others accept it or not, I think it's right, and I force others to accept it! This is forced promotion. ”
"Sir's doctrine is correct, huh?" Duanmuci emphasized again.
"Your sir's doctrine of thought is what you and your sir, as well as your classmates think is correct! And for Taoists, your doctrines and ideas are bullshit! Do you say that you force others to promote? Isn't it?
Not to mention that the doctrine of your master is wrong, even the kings and hereditary nobles, and others, consider your ideas to be unworkable and unrealistic. It's fantasy, it's wishful thinking......"
"How so? How so? Duanmu Ci wanted to emphasize again, and seeing that Fang Jishi was impatient, he had to say: "Then Engong, you say?" How is this society governed? You can't just do nothing, can you? If you don't promote, don't act, and go with the flow, how can you make the people accept it voluntarily? ”
"Lao Tzu said!" Do your duty, do your best', do a responsibility to be a man, for example, I am doing a duty to be a man, and I am here to educate you! Persuade you! Preaching to you. This is 'doing one's duty'.
So! What does it mean to 'do what you can'? That is! I have done my duty as a human being and have preached to you! Can you listen to it, can you accept it! I don't know. Anyway! I have preached to you to the best of my ability. Whether you accept it or not, I can't do anything. Because! I can't force you to accept my point of view! I can't force you to accept the Taoist viewpoint! Isn't it? ”
"You call this irresponsible!" Duanmu Ci said excitedly.
"How do I call irresponsible?"
"Do you call this 'doing what you are and doing what you can'? You're called irresponsible! ”
"That? What does it mean to be responsible? Fang Jishi asked rhetorically, "What do you mean?" I preach to you today! You have to accept it! If you don't accept it, you have to accept it! Do you accept it or not? ”
Talking! Fang Jishi's eyes widened, forcing him to look at Duanmu Ci.
"I don't accept it!"
"Nimadi! Do you accept it or not? Fang Jishi jumped up, lifted Duanmu as soon as he could, and threw it out. But instead of throwing it, he asked again: "Do you accept the Taoist theory I just said?" ”
"I don't accept it!"
"Go to Nima Land!" Fang Jishi shook his hand and threw Duanmu Ci to the ground. And then! Stepped on it! Forced again: "What I just said, Taoist theory, do you accept it?" ”
"I don't accept it!" Duanmu said hardly.
"You can die!" Fang Jishi stepped on Duanmu Ci's body with his foot. And then! Sit back to where you came.
sneered: "You still have a hard mouth!" Do you see what I mean? You can't force others to accept it! So! You and your husband cannot forcibly promote your doctrine and ideas! Because! You think your doctrine and ideas are correct, but others don't necessarily accept them. It's just like before! I said that the idea of the Taoist doctrine is correct and forces you to accept it, but you would rather die than accept it, right? ”
"Sir's doctrine is right! All of you are wrong in your doctrine and thinking! Woo woo woo ......" Duanmu Ci said as he got up and rubbed the painful place where he was stepped on.
"You still don't understand what I mean! I mean! You forcibly promote your doctrinal ideas, it will not work! Others don't accept it! You know what? Don't be stubborn, just think that your own doctrine and thinking are correct, and everyone else's is wrong! ……”
"So? What do we need to do to rule the world? Duanmu Ci asked while rubbing the painful part of the trampling.
"A spark can start a prairie fire!"
"A spark can start a prairie fire?"
"Lao Tzu said!" Do your duty, do your best'. For example! You and your husband think the same! So! You develop people who think they are just like you, you organize together, form a small group, form your own little world.
We Taoists are the same, spreading our own doctrines and ideas everywhere, and we have people with the same ideas gathered together to form a small group and form our own small world. And then! The minority obeys the majority, and whoever has the most will dominate the world......"
