"Showing Children's Long Sayings" [ Qing Dynasty] Pan Deyu

○Seven Chapters of Poetry for a Human Being

To be a human being, you must first make a determination, and determination is the foundation. People have no ambition, and their thoughts are muddy. Follow the instructions of the good God and you will not go astray.

Follow the good thoughts, and the big end is to be obedient to relatives. Why not learn from yourself, but from others? Those who violate morality think to themselves, why do they have this body?

Being obedient to relatives is not a face, being reflexive and sincere is the main thing. If you are obedient on the outside and disobedient on the inside, you will be like a beast dressed like a beast. Introspection comes from soul dreams, and deception is quickly gone.

Those who are sincere and obedient to their relatives will be aware of their shame in doing things. I'm afraid of humiliating my relatives, and it's my hatred to play tricks. Bandits are seducers, so don't make friends with them.

Know the right path if you are ashamed, and learn to be cautious every step of the way. Guard your body like holding a jade, protect your virtue and protect your life. Don't you dare to say anything unreasonable, and dare to commit evil deeds?

Be cautious and diligent in your work, and study hard. Read it carefully and think about it carefully, and you won't be confused anywhere. We will seek the hearts of the ancients and follow them accordingly.

Everything I say has been passed down through scripture. Who doesn’t listen to ancient teachings? It is a mistake to stumble upon desires. Begin to be a human being with the desire to cut off, but regret later when you make a mistake.

The poem on the right has seven chapters, and the chapters are connected with each other, with the first chapter as the outline and the last chapter as the destination. Chapter 5: Obedience to relatives is benevolence; sincerity to oneself is trustworthiness; awareness of shame is righteousness; prudence is courtesy; reading is wisdom. The five constant elements are present, and the principles of everything are nothing more than this. Therefore, if we do not mention the names of the five constant elements and do not follow their natural order, we can explain their principles, so the names can be omitted. Moreover, the principles of the Wuchang are very large and precise. They can be described as shallow, close, and urgent, so as to form their own order.

Although being obedient to relatives and sincere to oneself is not superficial, a child who is willing to listen to his parents’ teachings is also obedient to one’s parents; a child who is willing to work in a down-to-earth manner and never lies or deceives others is also an honest person. These are the most urgent things. thing. Consciousness of shame and caution are both practical and practical, so they come second. Reading is one of the most important aspects of wisdom, so it should be placed after it. However, it is not possible to understand the truth and be sincere to oneself, so it is consistent with the above four. In short, if you don't make a will first, then the good will have no origin; if you don't kill the desire in the end, then the evil will be impure. Therefore, the first and last two chapters are particularly tight. The meaning of being able to lead the first and last chapters, and the fifth chapter, is a thread that runs through it.

The two-word proposition "being a human being" means that if you do this, you will become a human; if you don't do this, you will become an animal. Want to be human? Do you want to be a beast? Why not think about it? Mencius said: "It is inherent in me, and I don't think about it." "How can I love my body less than Tongzi? I don't think about it." "The organ of the heart is thinking, and if you think, you can get it; if you don't think, you can't." " "Everyone has someone who is more valuable than himself." Therefore, the word "si" is the most important. If you are familiar with your thinking, you will be able to set your mind. Cheng Zi also said: Those who do evil do not know that they have thoughts; if they have thoughts, they are good. Doing good deeds wholeheartedly is nothing more than determination.

If you know your shame, you can endure hardships, and you will be practical and enlightened by yourself (if you are willing to endure hardships without seeking pleasure, you must be an outstanding man). Theory and meaning are the true self, while "Poems" and "Books" are acquired.

Being smart but floating is not a talent for success. I don't know that he is dull and has a wandering mind.

"Filial piety, loyalty, etiquette, justice and integrity" are the eight characters that you all know for granted, but don't know why. Therefore, it is regarded as something that binds people and causes suffering. If you know why it is natural, then you will not suffer. This must be thought about. Speaking or hearing, it is all taken for granted; learning, learning without thinking will lead to indifference, and indifference will lead to suffering.

Telling the diary story, a filial son and his younger brother will have the heart to think of one another, and then they will be talented and talented.

Those who are willing to read are fools if they go so far as not to believe.

As long as you are sincere, it is a shame to be "sincere".

Be honest and non-deceptive first, and then talk about other things.

Nothing in the world can be false, and no one in the world can be deceived. It can't be fake, it's just fake - it's ridiculous. If one cannot be deceived, then one is deceiving oneself - it is sad.

He is as simple as a child, as subtle as a bird, and cannot be deceived by words and colors. How much more advanced than this?

Those who are filial to their younger brothers are the vitality of a person; those who are honest and honest are the backbone of a person; those who are loyal are the heart and soul of a person. Just think about it, is there ever a time when you can do without it?

Classics, history, diet, and the so-called "acquired" cannot be abolished. 2. A classical Chinese essay describing a daughter
