Classic reading

First of all, heaven

[Original]

Heaven-the law of nature

[Tang] Feng Dao

Poverty is life, so why sigh?

Do what you have to do, and come if you can.

De-icing is necessary in winter, and grass grows by itself in spring.

Look here, the sky is very clear.

[translation]

Poverty and wealth are providence, no need to sigh.

Just grasp the present and do it well, no matter what will happen in the future.

Winter has passed, the ice and snow will melt, spring will come, and flowers will bloom.

If you can understand this truth, you can see everything in the world clearly.

[Notes]

Poor: sleepy and talented.

He Lao: Why bother? No need.

But: despite; Just concerned.

Second, increase benign literature.

[Original]

But doing good deeds is the future of Mo Wen. Narrow rivers and water are exciting, and people are in urgent need of family planning. Knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, don't go to Tiger Mountain.

[translation]

Just concentrate on doing good deeds, regardless of the future. When the river narrows, the water flow will be very fast, and people will use their wit and have emergency measures at the critical moment; If you know there are tigers in the mountains, don't go to the mountains with tigers.

[background]

Zengguang Xianwen first appeared in the Ming Dynasty, which collected all kinds of proverbs and sayings in China from ancient times to the present. Later, it was changed to this appearance after the continuous supplement of the literati in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It was called "adding glory to the text" in history, commonly known as "adding glory to the text". I have never seen any books, but I have only seen the Confucian scholars' weekly revision during the Tongzhi period of the Qing Dynasty.

[Appreciation]

But doing good deeds is the future of Mo Wen. -do all the things that should be done well, no matter what will happen in the future. No matter how good the planning for the future is, it is meaningless not to do the things that should be done well in a down-to-earth manner. As long as you do more good deeds, you don't have to worry about your future fate. Thus, there is a metaphor of "people are looking at things" and "good and evil must have different retribution".

Narrow rivers and water are exciting, and people are in urgent need of family planning. Knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, don't go to Tiger Mountain. If someone is guiding you ahead, don't follow blindly. Seeing is not necessarily believing. Follow your deepest thoughts.
