It is still illegal to do evil in heaven, and people can't live if they do evil.

The disaster from heaven can also escape; There is no escape from the crime you have committed. It is often considered as a feeling of self-torture. It can also be understood as: human destiny can be transformed, so "it is still possible to violate the sin of heaven", but if you don't make progress, it is "self-inflicted, you can't live."

Mencius said: "Benevolence is glorious, but unkindness is humiliating. It is disgusting to live in unkindness today, but it is still disgusting to live in the next place. If it's evil, it's not like a sage worshiping a scholar at all. A sage is in office and a capable person is in office. When the country is at leisure, it will be clear about its political punishment in time, although the big country will be afraid. " The poem says:' It's raining in the sky and raining in the soil. (1) Confucius said,' Who knows this poem? Who dares to insult his country if he can rule it? Leisure in the countryside now is as happy as leisure in time (2), and it is self-seeking. No matter what happens, it will be seek fortune for oneself. "Poetry" says:' As the saying goes, do what you want, and make money for yourself '(3) "Tai Jia" says (4):' If Heaven commits evil, it is still illegal (5); You can't live by committing crimes yourself. That's right. "

Mencius said, "Benevolence is glory, and being bad is shame. Now some people hate shame but live in unkindness, just as they hate humidity but live in low-lying wetlands. If they really hate shame, they should respect morality, let sages reign, and let capable people reign. The state takes this opportunity to amend the political and criminal law. Even big countries will be afraid. " The Book of Songs says:' It's better to be respectful than to rain. Confucius said,' Whoever wrote this poem knows it! He can govern the country well. Who dares to bully him? If the country has nothing to do, it is asking for disaster to linger on pleasure and be lazy and arrogant at this time. All the blessings and misfortunes are self-inflicted. The Book of Songs says,' Always think according to your destiny and make money for yourself', and The Book of History Tai Jia says,' Heaven can do evil, but it can be avoided; You can't live if you commit a crime. That's the truth. "
