The moral of the ancient seven steps

The seven steps in front of the door have their own mysteries. China has always had a "Nine Worship" complex. The emperor is called the Ninth Five-Year Plan, and the emperor's country is called "Kyushu". Even the steps the emperor stepped on are nine steps. Under the altar of the emperor, the prime minister of the dynasty, commonly known as "one person is below ten thousand people", has seven steps under the door of the emperor.

The setting of seven steps means wealth and smoothness, which is comparable to the highest position of an official. The number "seven" is the node where everything goes round and round. Buddhism has a cloud, a seven-level pagoda. Its Zen spirit just fits the gentle, kind and charitable attitude of the new crowd.
