Quoted from Nan (22 classic famous sentences by Mr. Nan)

Nan huaijin received a strict private school education from childhood and studied hard all his life. He is widely involved in the subset of classics and history, the contention of a hundred schools of thought, astronomical calendar, medical skills and martial arts, poems and songs, and has a deep understanding of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism.

He can be called a "walking dictionary" and a "walking history book" of China's classical culture. He is a rare figure who can penetrate Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism and even the whole traditional culture of China in modern times. Many of his words can bring us profound enlightenment in life.

Today, we have selected 22 passages from Mr. nan huaijin, and I believe everyone will benefit a lot from reading them.

The highest state of life

The highest state of life is: Buddha is the heart, Tao is the bone, Confucianism is the table, and the world is open; Skills in hand, you can be in it, thinking in your head, and live calmly. Reading history for three thousand years is nothing more than fame and fortune; Nine, Wan Li's enlightenment ends in poetry, wine and countryside.

Reading is for understanding, not for making a living.

Why should a person study? Judging from the traditional culture of China, this is an important old problem. Why should a person study? Traditionally, the most correct answer is the word "read".

To be reasonable is to understand the truth of being a man first. If you want to ask the Chinese nation, what is the educational purpose of China people? Say it again: to be a man, not to live. Because the meaning of "life" is that people want to "survive" in this world, how to maintain their own lives, and at the same time, let everyone have a better "life" and live a comfortable and happy life.

This is all after reading comprehension. Because of the development of wisdom and intellectual knowledge, it is easy to understand the technology of making a living, and all kinds of intellectual knowledge beneficial to making a living also belong to reading comprehension. It is of course inevitable to understand the way of "human relations".

Unfortunately, modern people know that the basic purpose of cultural education is just to "make a living". We want our children to study, study and receive education, just for the sake of their future, to have a good job, a high salary, or to earn a lot of money and live a good "life".

Think of others more.

It is also important to be objective in everything and let him think of what I want. Some people are often unhappy and dissatisfied with the handling of one thing.

To tell the truth, if we handle it ourselves, we may not be better than each other. The problem lies in our human psychology, and there is a natural requirement that others can be perfect; Ask friends, subordinates, and officers. I hope he has no shortcomings and everything is fine. But don't forget that the other person is also a person. Since he is a person, he has shortcomings.

From a psychological point of view, it is absolutely selfish to expect others to be good, because the perfection of the other party is based on their own views and needs. I think the other person's mistake is actually just because it violates my opinion and is based on his own needs or behavior.

Confucianism is a grain store, Taoism is a drugstore and Buddhism is a department store.

The cultural history of China before Qin and Han Dynasties was dominated by Confucianism, Mohism and Taoism. After the Tang and Song Dynasties, there were Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. China's cultural thought has been shrouded in these three schools until the early Republic of China. The May 4th Movement took place. At that time, I wanted to "overthrow Kongjiadian". There was a ripple in the mainstream of China culture, which changed and influenced for decades.

Buddhism is like a department store. If you have money and leisure, you can go shopping or not, but society needs it. Taoism is like a drugstore, which contains the thoughts of military strategists and strategists, as well as astronomy, geography and medicine. A country or a nation must go to this drugstore when they are sick. Confucius and Mencius thought that Confucianism was a grain depot and should be eaten every day. To deeply understand the evolution of China's cultural history and what to do in the future, we must study the Four Books.

Making friends has art.

We know it's hard to make friends sometimes. Zi You once said in the article "Establishing People": "Count the shame of the princes. The number of friends is scarce. " If there is anything wrong with the superiors, cadres have the responsibility to persuade them to be loyal. But he refused to listen to repeated advice, and then he reluctantly said it, and he was insulted. The same is true between friends. If you ask too much or give advice, you will alienate your friendship.

Confucius said to Zigong that the way to make friends is to "persuade the good and do it." Do your best to be loyal, encourage him and induce him well. When there is no other way, we will no longer be forced. If you go too far, it will not work; "Don't humiliate yourself", the friendship of friends will be gone and become enemies.

On the surface, it seems quite tactful for Confucius to teach students how to make friends. Enough is enough, not too much. In fact, from our own experience, we know that Confucius' words are not flashy. The spirit of friendship in China culture lies in "overstepping the rules and saying good words", which is the true value of friends. If there are mistakes, we can correct each other and encourage each other to develop in a good direction. This is a true friend, but there is a limit to excessive discipline and good advice. Especially * * * career friends, more attention should be paid. We have seen a lot in history and know that we can't do it, so we have to leave. After we left, we remained friends.

Life is practice.

Real practice is not only in the mountains, temples, but also in society. Live in practice, practice in life ... how you treat others, others will treat you, don't always complain, don't always find fault with others, don't always want to change others, first adjust your mentality and repair your heart, and everything will follow your heart.

If you embrace everything with a broad mind, you won't be confused. Seeing that all people are good people, everything is good, and everything is good, you can always find your own shortcomings and get rid of self-dependence. This is practice, otherwise what can you practice?

Don't "Taoist evil", but "Taoist goodness"

Most people like to criticize other people's shortcomings, especially the national characteristics of China, like to ask people questions, and care too much about people like investigating household registration. This is a common phenomenon. Many people in China have the habit of talking about others as soon as they meet. This is the disadvantage of being a Taoist. This is about two books that we must read, one is On Induction, and the other is Wen Chang di Yin Jun Shi Wen. China used to be a scholar of these two books. To achieve fame, the first thing is to cover up evil and promote good.

When a friend makes a mistake, he should persuade him behind closed doors and always cover up for others outside. This is morality. But this is just the dogma of fighting for fame in the past. People's habits are not like this, but the evil of people who like Taoism. So we should cultivate the pleasure of kindness.

Especially among friends, who has no shortcomings? But if you want to talk more about the strengths of others, Wang Zeng, the famous prime minister of the Song Dynasty, can do it. "Prospering the public court and administering the private room" is a necessary accomplishment. A successful person has his own cultivation advantages, that is, in recent decades, he has seen that successful friends from all walks of life have their own advantages. The kindness of a Taoist priest has tangible benefits.

Be gentle, and then you can become a gentleman.

Some people are very talented and have a good nature, but they are not knowledgeable enough to write a letter well. Among the friends of the previous generation, I found that many people were great. After the founding of the Republic of China, many people were great in politics, economy and society and made great contributions to the social country. Although writing is almost irrelevant, he is verve and cultivated. Others write well and read well, but I dare not discuss with them more. Sometimes I think they know nothing about the world, which is ironic. On the contrary, some people are not so knowledgeable and do not understand literature, but they are great. They are clever and thorough, and this is "quality".

A knowledgeable scholar is not necessarily good in quality. Take the meanness of predecessors, such as a poem by Shu Wei scolding Chen Meigong. You can tell at a glance. This poem says: "Decorate the big shelf in the forest and be an arty little master. The shortcut to fame is unintentional, but Chu Shi tried to brag in vain. Rex's book of sacrificial poems is called Zuo, Flying to Camp Zhong Ding to Run Clouds. Suddenly-only Yun Zhonghe flew to my sister's prime minister. "

This poem illustrates the importance of a person's literary accomplishment and quality. People can't live without learning and knowledge. What's the use of drilling for the sake of study? We don't agree with such knowledge. Good writing is good and knowledgeable, but there is nothing wrong with asking him out to do things. This is the shortcoming of good writing and poor quality. Be gentle, and then be a gentleman. That's the truth.

All the cultivation methods are just three words.

Regardless of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, all other religions, all human cultivation methods are these three words-kindness and caring thoughts. Take care of your thoughts, take care of your own thoughts.

The difference between a hero and a sage

Heroes can conquer the world, but not themselves; Saints don't want to conquer the world, but conquer themselves. Heroes give their troubles to others to pick up, and saints themselves pick up all the troubles of the world. This is the traditional spirit of our China culture. I hope everyone can fulfill the responsibility of being a saint and become a great politician.

Ancient classics should be memorized from childhood.

When I read the Four Books and Five Classics, I had to recite them. The children are very happy after school. You push me and I push you while singing. If you study like this, you will keep it in mind and never forget it. When I think about it, I will meditate in my mind, and then I will think about the truth again ... People often ask me why I have such good knowledge, and I actually tell others that this is the result of memorizing these ancient books before I was thirteen.

Doing people well and doing things right is learning.

Learning is not literature, but good writing is this person's literature; Erudition is the knowledge of this person; As for learning, even if you don't know a word, you may be learned-doing well, doing right, absolutely good, absolutely right, that's learning.

Don't be afraid of loneliness and desolation when studying. Only with this spirit and attitude can we talk about learning.

People don't make three basic mistakes.

There are three basic mistakes that people can't make: one is to respect the position of virtue; Second, they seek great wisdom with small wisdom; Third, they are not powerful, but they have great responsibilities.

If you suffer, you can enjoy happiness.

In fact, good things and pain are just two sides of the same body, one is the back of the hand and the other is the palm. If he can really throw away good things, he can also throw away pain, so pain is also a good test. If a person can't get rid of trouble, pain and adversity, it is impossible to say that he can get rid of good things.

You can't "deceive yourself"

Anyone who does only three things in his life will die: deceiving himself, deceiving others and being cheated. That's all. All cleverness in the world is equal, and no one can fool anyone. Obviously, if others look at you, you should look at others, especially if you can't pretend. Anyone with a discerning eye will see through your heart, heart and lungs.

People, because of "self-deception", will "deceive others", and of course they will be "cheated" in the end. People don't lie to themselves, who can lie to you? In other words, people have to love themselves before they can love others, and finally they can be loved naturally. It can also be said that people need self-esteem to respect others, so that others can respect you.

17

A gentleman never complains.

People can really learn for the sake of learning, so instead of complaining, ask yourself, why can't I stand up? Why didn't I achieve this goal? It is a variety of questions about one's own knowledge, cultivation and practice. I seriously reflect on myself and have no thoughts of complaining. Take the current concept, this kind of psychology is absolutely healthy, and this is the gentleman.

The best thing in life is to be in the right place at the right time.

The Book of Changes tells us that there are two key points, science, philosophy and personnel. Pay attention to two things when doing anything, namely "time" and "location" and time and space.

Very good things, great talents, if not timely, everything is useless. There is also "bit", for example, something is expensive, but it is useless in a certain occasion; If a beautiful jade vase is put in the toilet, this position is not quite right.

Everything in life, it is best to be in the right place at the right time. Time is luck. If you are lucky, you can't leave your position. It means that people invite you to dinner and you are invited to the invitation. You ran to the wrong place. There is no seat for you in that room, so you can't eat.

Man's supreme wisdom is to be true to himself, to others and to things, to know the opportunity is coming, to seize it and to do what should be done.

About occupation

What is a career? Confucius' Book of Changes is called: People who take measures in the world are called causes. A person who does one thing all his life is a contribution to the public, the nation and the whole society. This is a career.

Be yourself

"Throughout his life, I don't know where the honor and disgrace are, and I don't know where I am." This is the philosophy of life. Why do people ask you to feel good about yourself before greeting outsiders? It's none of my business outside. In my own mind, I think it is good to laugh and cry, which has nothing to do with others.

Life is like a play.

Life is like a play, the play has already started, so you should continue to play it, but you should know clearly that you are acting. ...

You should play your part well, but don't pretend to be serious. In fact, the world is not our hometown, and all beings are just passers-by in a hurry. What is there to be persistent, what is there to care about, and what can be done if you talk less? How about taking a step back?

This is the best time and the worst time.

This is the best time and the worst time. The contribution of western culture has promoted the development of material civilization, which can be said to be happiness on the surface; Bad means that people are busy with the competition for survival, afraid of the destruction of war and worried about the difficulty of reclamation. Mentally, it is the most painful. Under the sharp contrast between developed material civilization and poor spiritual life, mankind is facing a new crisis.
