Chapter 711: Duanmu Ci asked what was the best
"The world is so big, and the population is so large! One person has one idea, how many ideas are there in the world? Duanmu Ci sighed.
"Actually! There is only one idea! Fang Jishi looked at Duanmu Ci and said.
Seeing that Duanmuci's eyes were shining in the dark night, his tone was weak, and he looked depressed, he nodded with satisfaction. It can be seen! Under the tutelage of Confucius, Duanmu Ci became very kind. When he saw the suffering of the people in the world, he was anxious, and he had the feeling of rushing to the doctor when he was sick, and he thought that Confucius's doctrine and thought were correct, so he strongly supported and supported it.
"Only one?" Duanmu Ci was puzzled and asked, "Why is there only one?" The doctrine of the gentleman is one, and we all think it is correct! Lao Tzu's doctrine is another kind, although we can't accept it yet, but there are many people who accept Taoism. There are also many people with traditional ideas, and they believe in gods and spirits......"
Fang Jishi interrupted with a smile: "Hehehe! Lao Tzu said! In fact, there is only one doctrine in the world! That's to survive! It's all about survival! Think about it? Isn't it? ”
"This?" Duanmu Ci thought about it and had to nod. Then he hummed, "Hmm! Yes! ”
What is the ultimate purpose of Confucius's thought? It's just for everyone in the world to live a good life, the society is orderly, everyone is polite, and singing and dancing are level.
What is Lao Tzu's Taoist teachings about? Actually, it's the same! He wants to show humanity the way: why do people live, and what do people live for? Where do people come from, etc., is the most basic and deepest question.
What is the purpose of the traditional idea of worshipping gods? It's the same! It is to pray to the gods of heaven and earth to let themselves live happily, and the same is to survive.
By grasping this, you will be close to the people and life, and you will soon be able to find the true meaning of life.
"Since it's for survival, it's much simpler, give someone a way to live, and they will appreciate you, and you are their friend. Similarly! If you don't care about the lives of others, then! You are someone else's enemy, and others will see you as an enemy.
Long live the people!
Any doctrine and ideology is divorced from the foundation of the masses of the people! If you win the trust of the people, you can get the world!
Similarly! It's the same with businessmen, if you can win both times, business will go on forever. If you want to pit people, Dingtian will pit once or twice. And! You also have to deal with strangers all day long, and go to trick strangers. Isn't it?
It is possible to make a small fortune for a while, but it is also risky! If you meet a Taoist, or meet someone who doesn't want to die, or if you hurt others so much that they can't survive, others will play with you. When the time comes! You just want to make a little fortune and take advantage of that little advantage, but you lose your life! Isn't it?
Far from it! Where did you say it earlier? Speaking of the minority obeying the majority, speaking of who will dominate the world? Isn't it? ……”
Duanmu Ci responded in a loud voice: "Yes!" Be! Be! ”
But now the situation is: whoever has the power has the right to speak! Whose mind works! Isn't it? Kings have power, and their words count. The Son of Heaven had no power, and the princes did not listen to what he said. Isn't it?
But! The king has power, and their power can only have power in his own people, and he doesn't care if he uses it in the Great Zhou Dynasty, doesn't he?
In the world of the Great Zhou, in front of the great princes, no matter how much you are as good as you, you can't compare. No matter how strong your country is, it is useless! You can go head-to-head, but! You can't stand up to someone else's alliance! Other vassal states are too small to beat you, can they? But! They can form an alliance to work together against you! So! Power is not absolutely awesome! ……”
"So? What's the best thing to compare? Duanmu asked.
"There is a certain truth in the power that comes out of the barrel of a gun. But! In the end, it is necessary to conquer people's hearts! If you win power by unscrupulous means, and if you don't win the hearts and minds of the people, you will also lose power, right?
For example! Your sir! Where did he lose? He has no power! He did not have the power to control the entire Lu State, and he had no military power at hand. If he had military power, he could seize the country of Lu, and then! He regarded Lu Guo as his experimental field and promoted his doctrine and propositions. It's the same as Zhongdu, when he was in the middle of the capital, he governed the middle capital very well, didn't he?
If he has power and he seizes the country of Lu, he can also govern the country of Lu well, I believe this. But here's the problem! He has no power, no military power, and he can't control the state of Lu, and all his methods will not work. There are kings, important ministers, and hereditary nobles in the country of Lu. What do you do with them? Isn't it?
How could kings, ministers, hereditary nobles, let you do this? Isn't it? How could the country that their ancestors had worked so hard to build be ruined like this? Isn't it? Their ancestors didn't agree either! Their ancestors risked their lives to take the country, just for the enjoyment of future generations, how can you change history? Isn't it?
So! At this time, you must have absolute force to take down the kings, important ministers, and hereditary nobles of the Lu State and make them submit to you! And then! You can build a new world. In this new world, you can do whatever you want, you have the final say!
But! The country won by force is only temporary! You rule the country of Lu, don't you? If your doctrine and thinking and methods of governing the country are wrong, and others succumb to your force, there is no way for you. But they will never die of heart. Survive! It's the nature of human beings, the nature of human nature! Can't survive, then! Let's fight to the death! If that's the case? The world of Lu began to be chaotic again. Isn't it?
Furthermore! What's the use of you unifying the country of Lu? Isn't it? The Great Zhou world is so big, Lu is just a small country, and it is easy for others to destroy you.
So! The conquest of the world by force can only be won for a while, and if it does not win the hearts and minds of the people, it will soon be overthrown by the power of the people. No! It is defeated by the human instinct for survival! In the end, some people's erroneous thinking will not succeed......"
"This?" Duanmu Ci listened to Fang Jishi's sermon with his mouth wide open, although he felt that Fang Jishi's sermon was very wordy, but! It feels like that's the case again.
"So! Lao Tzu said! If you want to win the hearts and minds of the world, you have to go out there and preach in the world. Let more people in the world know about your doctrine and ideas, and then! Let them discern for themselves, whether you are right or not? Isn't it?
And your sir Kongqiu! He opened a school at home, created and created a small world, and he thought that his doctrine could save the world? My son Fang Zhong said! Your sir Kongqiu he! If he didn't take his students with him, what if he created a small world to go around the world? Will die quickly! It's miserable!
He went to a strange place, who did he talk to about honesty and credit? Others can't kill you? Isn't it? So! My son Fang Zhong said! His integrity and credibility can only be adapted to his students in a relatively familiar environment. When you go to a strange place, you will only become fish and meat, and others will be knives! It's you who cut it!
In this troubled time, survival comes first. Should you teach others how to survive first, not how to be obedient? You know what? When others can't survive, who will talk to you? Under the instinct of survival, it is the ability to grab food to keep yourself alive!
What do you think! You nerds, do you have any social experience? By the time you understand the truth of life, you are already facing the threat of death! ……”
