Read "Laozi" have a feeling essay 500 words

The twenty-seven chapters of Laozi have this sentence:

"The good man is the teacher of the bad man; the bad man is the capital of the good man, and there is a sense of reading Laozi."

"The good man" is the "bad man" teacher, which is easy to be understood, accepted and advocated, but the "bad man", not only do not criticize, but also as our mirror!

This is the first time I've ever seen a mirror with the "bad guy", so that I can correct and improve myself, and it's not easy to do.

No wonder Confucius said that Laozi was a dragon.

Confucius also said similar `words' in the Analects of Confucius:

"Seeing the virtuous and thinking of qi zhi yan, seeing the unwise and internal introspection also."

We can basically do the "good" as a teacher, as a role model, can do "see Yin Si Qi Yan", read "reading" Laozi "feeling". But if the "bad" as a mirror, "see not virtuous and introspection" requires a lot of courage, metrics, and quite a high level of cultivation and spiritual realm.

The reason why it is difficult for us to do "not good people, good people's capital", "see not virtuous and introspection", a bad person abhorrence, the second is not dare to face up to their own shortcomings.

However, if we want to really improve ourselves, we should look at ourselves, dissect ourselves, let the light of justice illuminate themselves, let the wisdom of the sages awaken themselves, let the evil doers warn themselves, and let the power of morality constrain themselves. Sweep away any barriers on the mind, erase all the dust and dirt on the state of mind, and return a pure and empty natural heart, to be an upright and honest natural man.
