Training and Learning Zhai Rules
"Studying"
Every time you study, you must rectify several cases to make them clean and straight. Put the books neatly, face the books with your body facing the book, read the words carefully and slowly, and read them clearly and subdivided. You need to read every word loudly, don't miss a word, don't miss a word, don't add a word, don't put a word upside down, don't read a word. It is far-fetched and secret, just recite it several times, it will be naturally catchy and will not be forgotten for a long time. The ancients said: read it a thousand times, and its meaning will be obvious. If you are familiar with it, you don’t need to explain it. You will know its meaning by yourself. I have always said that there are three ways to read, namely, the heart, the eyes, and the mouth. If the mind is not here, the eyes will not pay attention to the details. If the mind is not focused, it will only read rambles. It will never be memorized, and it will not be remembered for a long time. Of the three arrivals, the center is the most urgent. Once the heart has arrived, the eyes and mouth will not care. All books need to be taken care of and cannot be damaged. The crepe is folded in Jiyang and Jianglu. The reading is not finished. Although there is a rush, it must be neatly bundled and then started. This is the most appropriate method.

Instructions for "Ins and Outs of Reading" At the end of the day, you should ask for the reason to come out, and you will see kindness. This is entering calligraphy. Using it thoroughly, this is coming out of calligraphy. If you can't get the book in, you don't know the intention of the ancients. If you can't get the book out, you will die under the words. Only by knowing the way out and knowing the way in, can you learn the best way to read.
"If you keep your reading in mind, you will make progress"
As long as you keep your reading in mind, you will make progress day by day. Chen Jin only read one hundred and twenty words in one day, and then he read no books at all. This is so-called Those who have insufficient daily calculations but have more than enough in annual calculations. Nowadays, people who don't read will recite thousands of words every day. At first, they are happy, but then they read and forget, and they don't even get a hundred and twenty words in one year. When I was young, I had the habit of being greedy for too much. Even now, every time I think about it, I feel empty in my stomach. Only then do I know that Chen Xianliang has obtained the Dharma.

"The Method of Reading"
Cheng Zi said: Reading will be based on the principles and the application. If your mind is stuck at the end of the chapter and sentence, it will be of no use. This is a serious problem for scholars. When looking at books, one should not compare them to each other, and if their meaning is not correct, then every word will be incompatible with each other. When looking at the style of the writing, the meaning of the upper and lower parts is as complete as it is beautiful. It is different from the beauty of poetry. Sometimes when I feel that reading makes me happy and sometimes makes me dance with joy, I may wonder if the ancients’ meaning is consistent with the teacher’s meaning, and whether this will be the case in the future. Said: Yes. Only reading the Analects of Confucius and Mencius is enough for a scholar to have enough meaning. He must play with it. If he interprets it in words, it will not be enough for meaning. There are those who come to the world who regard reading as literature and art. They say: It is still possible to call art for literature. Reading is called an art, but those who seek books are shallow. Zhang Zi said: When reading a book, you must summarize its words and seek the author's meaning. If you study little, you will have no chance to take exams. If you gain the essence of righteousness and write books to maintain it, if you let go of this mind for a while, your moral character will be lax for a while. If you read, your mind will always be there. If you don't read, you will end up reading the meaning without seeing the book. You need to recite and meditate, mostly at night, or sit quietly. If you don't remember it, you can't think about it, but you can understand the Great Plains, and the subsequent books are easy to remember, so Those who read the book will be able to clear up their doubts and understand that they have not yet achieved what they have achieved. Every time you see something new, you will learn to make progress. Only when you have doubts where you don't have doubts can you make progress. Shang Cai Xie said: Scholars first study literature, but few can reach Taoism. Even if you take a broad view, you will do your own harm. Therefore, Mr. Mingdao taught me and said: "A wise man should be careful in reading, and don't seek to count the ink."
Luo Zhongsu said in Guishan Yang's words: There is a certain person who teaches several sentences. The method of reading is to use the body to practice it and to experience it with the heart. Calmly and silently meditate in the quietness, be detached in the tranquility, be content with the words in the book, and express the meaning of the image. This is the case for something that is done by oneself.
He Jingyin said: Lu Xian Keqiang said that you don’t need to read too much, you have to take one word per line. Yichuan also once said that it is better to read one foot than to walk one inch. The best thing to do is to be able to read, and the two gentlemen have the same intention. When reading, you must look at the saint's intentions and apply them one by one when the situation arises.
Li Shi of Yanping said: Those who read, if you know what they say, it is not my business, and I will pursue it with my own body. Then all the sages and sages will go to where I have not come, and they can all go forward. That’s it. If one seeks to explain it directly through words, and the meaning of the words can be explained by reciting it, it is unlikely that one will lose one's ambition as a plaything.
Donglai Lu said: People are often meticulous when reading, and those who have never read and those who have read to understand theory and interest can be seen by observing what they do. Whenever you read, you must be familiar with it. If your memory is slow, recite it several times, and you will naturally become familiar with it and remember it firmly. If you don’t do it many times, just remember it. If you recite it today, you will forget it tomorrow. It is no different from never reading. In order to learn the way, you must first be sincere. If you are not sincere, you will not be able to achieve it. Why do you see that he is sincere and lives in the same place, his determination is concentrated, and he will not speak nonsense. If you don't smile, if you open the book and read it, you will be as respectful as you are to the sages. If you cover the book and meditate, you will be able to understand the principles and be free from evil thoughts. If you have been practicing for a long time, you will have the image of a sage and sage as your habits and character are developed.
Reading is the foundation of learning, and reading must be done first. The method of reading must be followed every day. If you read a sentence, you may not understand the meaning, and you will not hesitate to discuss it with others to confirm it, and you will not hesitate to ask others to read it. Mortals are often ashamed of this. If they didn't know it was better, they would be ashamed for life. Later, I learned to read, but I didn't realize that at present, it is rough to talk about life. This is extremely detrimental to learning, which has its own level. Young people are knowledgeable, smart and strong in memorizing, but not fearful. But those who think and inquire are to be feared.
Xiangshan Lu said: Generally speaking, reading and exegesis can only be done once you have mastered it, but if you read it with a calm heart and do not need to speculate, it is nothing more than immersion and cultivation, and spurring and hardening. There may be areas that are not fully understood, but it is harmless to omit them, and if they are clear and clear, they will naturally become brighter with each passing day. Later, if the original depth becomes deeper, the things that have never been understood will be smooth and clear. Reading and writing is also my business, but reading books is not for writing, and writing is the end of it. Where there is a beginning, there must be an end. I have never heard of a person who is prosperous in the beginning but not prosperous in the end. If the beginning is reversed, the so-called literary scholars can also understand it.
Mian Zhai Huang said: In daily life, you should be respectful and self-sufficient to make your mind peaceful. As for reading, I should be calm, dignified and solemn. I must meditate on the words of the sages with my heart, and always let the thoughts of the sages come into my heart. Just like looking at an object in a mirror, beauty and ugliness can be seen in the mirror, so why bother. The reason why people today are not good at reading is not because it is difficult to understand the meaning of the sages, but because our minds are disturbed and confuse the meanings of the sages. If you read calmly and carefully, you will naturally see clearly. You must not be easily complacent and then interpret the Six Classics. How can one be satisfied with being thorough? How can one dare to do so easily? It is not enough to carry out heavy tasks in future generations, and it is necessary to restrain and retreat quietly, always apologetic, and only when it is not enough can we make progress. Those who read books are most afraid of being unbalanced and like Gong Ye, who is one chapter long. Xie Shangcai is said to be a saint, and the choice of a son-in-law is amazing. Yang Guishan is said to be a saint. The reason why he asks for help from others is that he can be spared from punishment and does not burden his family, so he can have a wife. Those with high Qi in Shangcai and those with weak Qi in Guishan are therefore different in what they see. It is important to follow Wenping to see the original meaning of the sage, which is the great method of contemplating calligraphy.
Beixi Chen said: The method of reading the four books is not to ask too much, not to be clever, not to search around, not to quote. It is also just to play with a calm mind. The purpose is returned to oneself to observe its practicality. you. If I can do these four things, understand them thoroughly, make the principles clear, and be open-minded, then I will have a measure to weigh them, and I will use them to review the scriptures and read them. The books of the world discuss the affairs of the world, and they are all melted and released, and the importance, length, and shortness are completely certain. There will no longer be any discretion or disorder.
Fan Yang and Zhang said: "Learning from friends brings happiness to the world. If you are unlucky enough to learn alone, you should still have friends, as the ancients did." Therefore, reading the Analects of Confucius is like reading Confucian sages, reading Mencius is like talking to Mencius, and reading Du Shi and Su Wen is like watching the two princes. With such dedication, even if you live for a thousand years, you can meet people for thousands of years.
Chengzi said: Everyone has their own way of reading. The poems of Yi and Spring and Autumn cannot be read sentence by sentence, but the Analects of Book of Secrets can be read sentence by sentence. The words of the Six Classics are tacitly understood in their implications, and the essence is based on understanding the essence. Readers should consider the meaning of the scriptures that the saints wrote, and the reason why the saints are saints. And the reason why I haven't come yet is to seek the heart of a saint. And the reason why I haven't understood it is that if I recite it during the day and think about it at night, I will calm down my mind, calm down my anger, and eliminate my doubts, then I will have some insights. Ancient scholars all taught it, just like saints writing scriptures, originally hoping to clarify the way. Nowadays, if people do not first understand the meaning and principles, they cannot treat the classics. It doesn't mean it can be taught. If the meaning of the hexagram is originally intended to be clear, if the meaning of the hexagram is not first sought, the hexagram cannot be understood. The way of a saint is like the river map and Luoshu, which begins and ends with painting. The meaning is revealed at the beginning, and those who follow not only attach great importance to hexagrams, but also seek to understand the meaning of words, and they will definitely get the reason. As in the Spring and Autumn Period, it is what it is and what it is not, but it is just a few people at that time. Scholars do not read other books, but only look at the Spring and Autumn Period. The meaning of the hexagrams and lines has been established at the beginning, that is, the sages have made different uprisings in an intricate manner. For example, in the Spring and Autumn Period, they have already established examples. In recent times, when the writings are completely different from ordinary things, the writings have different meanings. If you follow the precedents, you can see the difference. Lost it. Su Jiming often preached the classics, and often gave lectures in practice. However, it was just empty words that were of no use and only a matter of quality. Mr. Bochun said: To establish sincerity in rhetoric, one must be careful and understand the words carefully to be able to practice pronunciation. Words are meant to be sincere. If you only modify your words, your heart will only be false. If you cultivate your words, it is to establish your own sincerity, which means that you should respect your own family, keep the inner meaning straight, and use practical things to explain it externally. Wherever Hao Hao starts, only sincerity can have a place to live. If there is a place to live, you can cultivate your career. You do small and big things all day long, but you are just loyal, so progressing in virtue is real. The starting point of rhetoric is to establish sincerity, which is the starting point for practical cultivation.
Mr. Zhengshu said: The practical study of the classics is like distinguishing between different plants and trees. The Tao is in the great and small, far and near, high and low, fine and coarse, and the forest is listed among them. For example, if the sun and moon are above and someone is missing, one person pointing it out is not as good as everyone pointing it out. Self-understanding is like a book of the Doctrine of the Mean, which has its own rationale.
For example, if a country has nine classics and the traces of saints from past dynasties, is it just practical learning, like climbing on a nine-story platform, starting from the bottom up? This is because people are suffering from the disease and often talk about empty words, and those who have no reality will not be satisfied. For the sake of learning and treating the classics, it is best to be content with nothing, then even treating the five classics would be in vain. Nowadays, there are people who have gained enlightenment and gained a lot. Those who are good at reading but suffer from emptiness are not immune to this disadvantage.
Zhang Zi said: It is also necessary to remember the classics. Even though one has the wisdom of Shun and Yu, chanting without speaking is not as good as being deaf and blind. Therefore, if you remember, you will be able to do what you say. Therefore, you cannot start learning without reciting numbers.
Guishan Yang said that after the Qin and Han Dynasties, things must be identified one by one. If you want to identify them, you must pay attention to the Six Classics. The Six Classics cannot be read easily. Many people today say that if you want to do anything, you must look at history. History must be looked at, but the traces of the six classics of the past kings' management of the world are there, which is enough. We must wait and see. There are no history books. What did people in the past do? It is said that Confucius did not have a history and wrote the Spring and Autumn Period. The more you gain, the farther you go. If it is clear from the classics that there is no time to deal with it, but if there is time to deal with it, then when a matter is raised, it must be dealt with immediately. Why not be able to identify the problem?
Luzhai Xu said: To pay attention to the purpose of the scriptures, you must read the original text repeatedly, ask the saints to give their opinions, and refer to the scriptures for your own understanding. If you read and recite it repeatedly, twenty or thirty times or even fifty or sixty times to find out its meaning, you cannot then use ancient commentaries to prove it. The ancient annotations and teachings are unclear and cannot be understood. We will examine the interpretations of various schools and choose the one that is right, and take the theory of one family as the final conclusion. Don't be general, don't know what to do. When reciting sutras and studying history, one must concentrate on rejecting external objects. Unless ordered by parents and teachers, one must not stop because of them.
Chengzi said: Anyone who interprets words should be able to understand the truth by his own mind. The reason is just the meaning and is very clear. Like a flat road. And just like following the hexagram, a gentleman enters the banquet in the dark, and the interpreter mostly does "Zunyang". When the "hui" is "hui", he may ask what word "hui" should be used. Said: This is just a big one at any time. When it is dark, it means feasting and resting. It has no other meaning. Or one might say: The words of a sage should not be taken lightly. Look at him and say: The words of the sage have their own nearness and depth. How can strong points be born from the near side, and profound teachings can be obtained by digging. The Han Confucians talked about the classics, using more than 30,000 words to understand the two words of Yao Canon. It can be said that it is important to know that only Mao Gong and Dong Xiang were Confucian, and their atmosphere was in Tokyo. Scholars valued reputation and integrity, and coupled with the etiquette and justice, they were all virtuous people.
"Reading History"
Cheng Zi said: Every time a certain person is halfway through reading history, he will cover up the book and think about it, predicting its success or failure. Then I saw that there was something wrong, and I thought more carefully. I was lucky enough to succeed, but unfortunately I failed. Today I only see the successful ones, so I think they are right, and the losers think they are wrong. I don’t know that the successful ones are wrong, and the losers are wrong. There is a bottom. To read history, one must see the sages and sages who have managed chaos. The sages and gentlemen have advanced and retreated wherever they have come from, and this is the investigation of things. Nowadays, people only see him as a person and do what he is doing without realizing that he is doing something wrong. Anyone who reads history must not only record deeds, but also understand the principles of managing chaos, safety, and the principles of prosperity and destruction. For example, if you read the First Chronicles of Emperor Gao Di, you must understand how the Han family managed chaos for four hundred years, and learn how to do it.
Nanxuan Zhang said: When looking at the history of history, we should examine the management of chaos and the reasons for its rise and fall. Observe whether a person is right or wrong, how much he is right, and how little he shows to his husband. It seems that he is free to choose and give up, especially when he is three times. If knowledge and knowledge can help, writing and diction will be useless. As a court captain in Dingguo, there are no wronged people in the world. Who can be bullied by the Shi family? The deaths of Zhao Gai, Han Yang and others are all at the hands of Dingguo. There is no great injustice. In general, when looking at history, one should not be deceived by the historians. Zhang Shizhi was a court official. If anyone was surprised by his horse, the superior wanted to kill him. Shizhi thought he was worthy and fined him. He also said: The Dharma is the king of the world, and it is time for the envoy to punish him. Now he has been sent to Tingwei, and Tingwei has brought peace to the world. Shi Zhi knows that Tingwei is the peace of the world, but he does not know. The king brings peace to the world. When asked about the method of reading Tongjian, he said: To control chaos, gain and loss, the source of talents is evil, it is not the use of wealth and wealth. The art of war, good words and good deeds, should be studied thoroughly.
Donglai Lu said: The history of history begins with books, and then with Zuo.
Fan Yang Zhang said: If you look at the events of the Tang Dynasty, if you are involved in it, what is the temperament of the person, what is the destiny, the scholar-bureaucrats in the dynasty at that time, who is a gentleman, who is a villain, and how do they deal with things? Which one is right and which one is wrong? They are all in the chest, and the next time Xiaoran can talk about it. But when it comes to finger painting, the opportunity is ripe, and you will definitely be better than others when things happen in the future. All the joyful and shocking things in the past should be stored in the heart and used to express them, and the articles written in the pen will not be empty words.
Xu of Lu Zhai said: There must be compromise when reading the history of Zi, and the Six Classics also requires compromise when discussing the history of Mencius. For example, a family law has a pattern of laws and regulations to reward merits and punishments. Those that conform to the format of the laws and regulations are considered appropriate, and those that do not conform to the format of the laws and regulations are inappropriate. The opinions of various schools of thought are correct if they agree with the teachings of the Six Classics and Meng, and those which do not agree with the teachings of the Six Classics are considered wrong. People who do archeology like this rarely lose anything when they go and get it.
When reading history, one must concentrate on one family and leave the rest behind to read it. After a history is completed, one must memorize it and then read it without taking a single history. This is common. In a few years, the history can be recorded and read. One history has not yet been completed, and other histories are mixed together, and they are all intertwined. The first one cannot understand the whole history. However, when reading the three biographies, one should refer to the historical records, and when reading the historical records, one should refer to the previous Chinese dictionaries. Each has its own method, and cannot be I don’t know.
When reading historical records, you should first look at the big details of the person, and then look at the details. The good will be followed, and the bad will be taken as a warning. Therefore, for my own benefit, just memorizing the things and reading his books is not the so-called learning.
Study Record "Xue Xuan's Study Record"
"On Learning"
The first step in learning is to establish your heart as the foundation, and read when your heart is in it. From this point on all the hard work and practice will be advanced. Mencius said: There is no other way to learn, just ask for peace of mind. Cheng Zi said: The sages have thousands of words, but they only want people to take back what they have given up. If you turn back into your body, you will be able to seek upwards. This is what it means. If one learns the Tao from the books of sages and sages, but only enters into the idle mind of a disciple without seeking the truth, then there will be no self. Taoism is based on the Five Classics and Four Books. It is dedicated to historians and cannot enter Taoism by itself. Mencius concentrated on his four-character study. Shao Zi's poem says: If you don't read, it is not a holy book. All books that are not correct cannot be read. Since the beginning of literature, there have been more and more books, and it is necessary to choose from them. Zheng Sheng messes up elegant music, and miscellaneous books mess up the Bible. The remaining things are within my ability and are not necessary. The only thing about reading is what I have learned from my heart. I will try my best to take advantage of my leisure and never stop. Han Ziwu was always reading, and his words about not worrying about other things really won my heart. The wealth of ten thousand gold is not enough for me to enjoy reading in one day. If the taste of foreign things lasts for a long time, it will be disgusting. The longer you read, the deeper the taste becomes, and you never tire of it. If you read to prevent a diagnosis, you still want to take medicine to eliminate the disease. Although the disease is not cured, if the medicine is often overpowering, the disease will decline on its own. Although the heart is not stable, if you often get a deep taste of books, the heart will mature on its own. If it takes a long time, it will decline. Those who are familiar with it will transform. If you want to gain something from learning, you must read by yourself. When you study, you will become familiar with it. Every sentence will naturally become one with your heart, and you will gain something. Read the previous sentence as if there is no following sentence, read this book as if there is no other book, and you will gain a lot in your heart. The reason why people who read books do not see virtues and great achievements are that they just talk but do not practice them. If you read and study and practice the chapters from time to time, you will be able to learn and practice from time to time. If you read the chapter on filial piety to your younger brother, you will know whether you can be filial to your younger brother. If you read Yan Yuan's question about benevolence, you will be able to see, hear, speak and act if it is inappropriate. If you can't do this, just talk to your ears. Just read and learn. Yan Zi’s four points are: don’t stop thinking in your heart, keep thinking in your mouth, keep it and don’t lose it, follow it and don’t violate it. Is there any mistake? Looking at the books in the world, I don't know where to use them. Even though there are many, I think it's a joke. Don't check whether the theory exists, but read all the books without refutation and misunderstanding, in order to learn and understand the knowledge and win over others. I know that the more I remember, the more suffocated my heart becomes, the more desolate my ambition becomes, and the more dim my consciousness becomes. Reading in this way is not useless, it is also appropriate. Therefore, it is the harm of mental tricks. Whenever you read, you must be humble and calm, and recite it slowly, so that you can closely observe its meaning. If your heart is full of energy and you recite it in a hurry, you will learn how to read and recite like a child in a village. If you shout loudly, how can you understand the meaning of it? Reading should come from your own mouth and enter your own ears. If you read in a quiet, broad and careful way, you can get the wonderful things from it. If you are agitated, anxious and rough in pursuit of it, it is the so-called turning a blind eye, hearing but not hearing, and eating without knowing the taste. It's wonderful enough. It is difficult to achieve anything by reading with your mouth and your heart racing outside. Zhu Zi said: Tong Yuyun has read it a thousand times, and its meaning can be seen. He also said: Think about it and think about it again. If the thought cannot be understood, ghosts and gods will understand it. This is not the power of thinking, the ultimate spirit, and not lying. This statement is based on the essence of reading and meditating, and it will have its own enlightenment. Reading without thinking is like a bird passing by in the swift wind. The previous sound is extinguished and the shadow is extinguished. You also don’t know what the sages are saying and what its purpose is. Only if you think carefully, pay attention to physical and mental things, and repeatedly test the principles, you will know that every word and word of the sages' books is useful. Reading to clarify moral principles is to seek practical principles for daily use. If you read without clarifying moral principles, you will be absorbed in the idleness of words and will eventually be unable to understand the practical principles. The books of sages are enlightened by gods and depend on people, otherwise the books will be edited by dust. The book can be enlightened and lively. The books of sages contain the principles of everything in heaven and earth, ancient and modern. If you can understand the principles from the books, then the principles are practical. Otherwise, how can the books be practical if they are self-written and logical? "Cheng Zhu Chuan Annotation" There are few people who are interested in their leisure time. I even hold a volume of the Doctrine of the Mean, and because of this book, people all over the world are thinking about it. How many people can truly grasp the principles of the Doctrine of the Mean from the book of the Doctrine of the Mean? She gave up the Four Books and Five Classics of Primary School, and the books of Confucianism in the Song Dynasty. If you don't read the books of others before reading them, it's like hating Mount Tai but loving the hills and mountains. I don't think they are small. Chengzi said: To those who are taught, it is words. It's up to the person to get the meaning from the words. The way you study should be based on words to achieve success. To understand the words but not to understand the meaning is to learn the chapters, sentences and words. The four books must be read immediately. If a person can sincerely seek the Tao, even though it has its own place in the text of the Five Classics and Four Books.
If one is not sincere towards this, even if one chapter of the sutra is repeatedly explained in tens of thousands of words, one will not be able to achieve anything. It’s all common people who don’t know the taste of food and drink, and don’t know how to use it every day. This is not only true for ordinary people, but also for those who are afraid of reading and do not understand the truth. Only by reading the books of sages and seeing the practical value of every word can we learn practical knowledge. If you only take the resources of oral poetry, it is not practical learning. When you are so proud that you forget to speak, you know that reading should not stop at the idleness of words, but should be understood by the expressions of words. Reading is all about understanding the inherent principles, and there is no doubt that you want to practice them. The words of sages and sages will lead to knowledge. You should imitate the methods of analysing. The mouth and ears are poor. Reading must be thorough and specific in order to understand the truth. If a thought is mixed, it will be separated by a layer. If you read with a bird's eye, you will not be able to achieve subtlety. The books of Lian, Luo, Guan, and Min must be read every day, and the Tao of Zhou, Cheng, Zhang, and Zhu must be respected. It would be wrong to abandon this and learn from others. It is beneficial to read the books of sages and be considerate of your own body and mind when it comes to all the important words. You must be sure to get them in practice and practice them diligently, which is beneficial. Otherwise, if the book is written by itself and I am myself, even if I read all the books of sages and sages, it will be of no use. Reading is not beneficial to the body and mind, it is just a matter of confusion. Reading should only be based on the annotations of the main text. If you have already analyzed the annotations of the main text and still have doubts, you can refer to the quotations. In addition to the annotations, there are all Confucian small annotations. The scriptures are no more than a few words, and the small annotations Even though it contains thousands and hundreds of words, in fact, not only can scholars not be able to comprehensively read and comprehend the scriptures, but they also cannot be precise in their annotations. If a great sage made it, he would have to cut it again with a gong. If you read, you will get the essentials, which is the nature of destiny. It is essential to read without thinking, but thinking is too painful and unruly. Then the heart will move accordingly. If the spirit and energy are unclear, it will be as clear as a well. If it is confused frequently, it will become turbid. Whenever you feel tired after reading and thinking for a long time, you should sit up straight with your lap folded and clear your mind. If you continue to think for a while, your mind will be clear and the meaning will come to you.
"Recognition"
Reading in front of the entity, recognizing it is like reading the first chapter of the Doctrine of the Mean, where the destiny of heaven is called nature. It is convenient to ask where the nature of destiny is, and reading the first chapter of the University to Mingde and New People. In the pursuit of perfection, one should simply ask why the three things are like this, then the principles will be all there, and the mind will be free and will not be entangled by words or words. After reading for a long time, I can see that the principles in the book and the principles in my own life are consistent one by one, and then I can gain something. Only when reading is considerate to your own body and mind can it be interesting. All are true. How can the sages deceive me? The truth lies in the leisure of all things and things. The books of sages only touch upon the truth. Reading does not know where the truth lies. What's the point of staying at the end of words? If a person reads the words of a sage, he can embody them both physically and mentally in every sentence, and if he practices them diligently, even Yanzi can express his meaning. When reading and remembering a sentence, you should look for the truth of it. You must see the whereabouts before it is beneficial. The ancient Confucianism said that when you read, you are only afraid of "seeking and thinking". It is best to read the word "seeking and thinking" like a sage. When you say a sentence, you will think about it again and again. In my body and mind, what is it? For yes, in all things, what is yes. If the words of the sages and sages have their own meaning, then you will know that every word is true and not just empty words.

The first reading is primary school first, followed by the four books and the six classics, and The books written by Zhou Cheng, Zhang Zhu and Sima Shao are irrational and should not be read indiscriminately. Once the reading is done step by step, you can only read one book after you are familiar with it. You should not be rash and careless. Even if you read too many books, it will be useless.
Wang Shouren's Quotations
"Biography of Learning"
A friend asked about reading and couldn't remember how. The Master said: As long as you know how to do it, you have to remember it, and you have to know it. This is already the second meaning. As long as you understand your own essence, if you just want to remember it, you don't know it. If a disciple wants to know, he cannot understand his own true nature.

You must read more of the ancient books, but You can't rely on books, you can't rely on reading, and you can't rely on the ancients.

Why three generations ago, scholarship was like that. After three generations, scholarship was so weak in the Han Dynasty, and there was a legacy of the Wei and Jin Dynasties Since then, it is not because of the intentions of future generations that the emperors have fallen behind. The intentions of the predecessors actually reflect the scholarship of future generations, which is not as good as the scholarship of the predecessors. There are probably two reasons why the scholarship of future generations is difficult to match. One is the study of principles, and the other is the study of rhetoric. The study of righteousness and theory still attacks the study of diction. Those who care about righteousness and reason will regard the scholars of diction as unreachable; Illuminating people's eyes and ears. Although the meaning and principles are as deep as searching for a sound in an empty valley, they both stop at the bottom of their wanderings. They take different paths but reach the same destination. These are all engaged in the end of language, rather than practical learning. Therefore, there is a reason why academics are not as good as those of the Three Dynasties and those of the Han Dynasty. If the knowledge based on diagrams is not passed on, all practical knowledge will be reduced to empty literature. Those who stand firm in their leisure time and are unwavering in all weathers will have one or two people in each generation.
It is also the leader of the alliance that implements the laws and regulations of a generation of cultural relics. However, if things are rare, the price will be difficult to equal. If people are rare, people will rarely know the world. If there is no map, people will not understand the study of maps. Zhang Hua was a native of the Jin Dynasty. There were thousands of palaces and houses in the Han Dynasty, and they responded like a ring. People at that time admired his museum, and Zhang Hua had a great museum. This is not the effect of a natural history. See the map of the palaces of the Han Dynasty. A man from the Tang Dynasty in Wuping asked Lu Sanhuan and Zheng Qimu about the Spring and Autumn Period. There was no trace of the family lineage. People at that time admired the Ming Dynasty Spring and Autumn Period. Ping Yigu was familiar with the Spring and Autumn Period. This It is not the result of the Spring and Autumn Period of the Ming Dynasty. There is no genealogy of the Spring and Autumn Period, but there is no picture of Shihua. Even though I have read all the books of the Han Dynasty, I still don’t know the origin of the palaces of the previous dynasties. There is no genealogy of Shipingyi. Know the history of the ancient clans. At that time, the author's later historians did not know what his learning was like that of others, and the old ministers also did not know it. When they saw Yang Quanqi's map of Luojing, Fang Sheng and Zhang Huazhi saw the genealogy of Du Yugongzi, and Fang Juepingyi, it is better to know. The study of diagrams and charts is a great scholar, and Xiao He is also an official with swords and pens. He knows the place of the constitution of the Yan and Han Dynasties, and he is a great Confucian. The father and son argue at the end of the sentence, calculating the gains and losses of the slightest, and losing the general outline of their scholarship. The canons of the Qin people, Xiao He can be collected in the grass, and the canons of the early Xiao He, Xin Xiang cannot be recorded after Taiping. This is all See something different. Those who chase deer care about deer but do not know that there are mountains. Those who seek fish care about fish but do not know that there is water. Liu's study focused on chapters and sentences, so he knew there were books but not pictures. Calling, the study of diagrams is absolutely no one’s fault.

The nature is all unified, the heart is all incompetent, and the Qi is all full. People are born with this, and all their talents are complete. It may be incomplete, which is the crime of not being qualified, poor scholarship, disordered moral integrity, harm of heresy, and confusion. Today's departure is far away from ancient times, and everyone's departure is also a saint. Those who are lucky enough to survive are great sages and great sages. The book of benefiting the world is also a book that those who learn it should be consistent with their nature, their heart is consistent, and their Qi is the book to seek for and avoid evil. The art of righteousness can distinguish between sincerity and falsehood, distinguish the quality of priority, and practice it faithfully and stick to it. I don't believe that his materials are incomplete. All students have been studying from Yu Wen for many years. But because of him, I can't start. It is the joy of a man to educate talented people, so he has to follow the order of reading and learning, so that the common people will not be inferior, but will lose their full talent due to disorder. Among the books of the three dynasties of the pre-Qin Dynasty, the Six Classics are written by Meng Wei. Changes are taking place and customs are deteriorating day by day. Scholars look down upon the world and do not work hard, hoping for their talents and getting them all. In the study of the three generations, the order of major and minor, and the taste of successive ones, although there are some residual threads, it is difficult to understand. You should just follow them and work hard. The Six Classics speak to Meng'er. People in the world often regard Yu Meng as the beginning of learning, but they don't know the completion of Yu Meng's sages. The so-called general who is erudite and speaks in detail is also a general who talks about things in reverse. The sages end with this, and the scholars begin with this. The details of the sages are not mentioned. If you suddenly talk about the covenant between sages and sages, you are going against it. The so-called face and shape are not separated, it is already talked about in a baby, and it is also related to life. Although the sentence reading and exegesis are indispensable, it cannot be forced to be interpreted after being familiar with it. Although I don't know much about Han Yong in my heart, I think it's OK to be the first to enter. If you don't dig into it, it will confuse your ears. After the six classics are completed, you will get it by seeking it. To treat the Six Classics, one must write poems by oneself. The ancient people recited poems thirteen times, chanting their emotions and feeling their will, and the harmonious sound was here. People's ears are obscured by blood and Qi. Poetry can guide emotions, and open up blood and Qi so that young children can often hear the sound of singing and chanting. It can be long without losing the meaning of piercing beauty. Although there is blood and Qi, it can be obscured. Poetry and then writing, the so-called saint's love in writing, you can see it. Ci people also use words to ask for love, and love can be obtained. Once the blood and qi are opened, the emotions are acquired, and the foundation is established. This legislation can be levied. There is nothing more useful than etiquette. The etiquette of the three generations has been abolished. What can be seen today is the rites collected by Han Confucians, recorded by Zhou Gong, and are called Zhou rites. The two books have governed, and it cannot be stopped except in the Spring and Autumn Period. The Spring and Autumn Period used the laws of heaven and kings to stop the cause of the world. After the Spring and Autumn Period has been established, the use of saints can be seen. The poems are based on their emotions, the books are based on their words, the rituals are based on their integrity, and the Spring and Autumn Period are based on their judgments. Then use poetry, calligraphy and ritual as the body of learning, and the Spring and Autumn Period as the purpose of learning. The body and use are consistent, the root and the bottom are specific, and the principles of the world are exhausted. Exhausting reason and exhausting one's nature to the point of death. Then learn to change things from your husband, and it is easy to do it. The reason why a sage becomes a saint is that the end becomes the beginning. Scholars use their minds to do so, because poetry, books, etiquette and music cannot be learned if they are not clear, and the Spring and Autumn Five Classics cannot be learned if they are not clear. If Yifu doesn't know the roughness, how can he know the fineness? If the ones that are near are not exhausted, then how can they be exhausted that are far away? Many scholars are fond of lofty and far-reaching affairs. They seek fame but retain their true reputation. The meaning of the ancient pagans and sages is obscure and unclear. The Six Classics have been popularized since the Qin Dynasty, annotated in the Han Shu, explained in the Tang Dynasty, and discussed in the Song Dynasty. They have changed day by day. Scholars should also know their precedence and not change their conscience based on their words. Scholars in modern times often abandon the annotations and exegesis of biographies and publish the arguments of Confucian scholars. They do not know the theory of argumentation. I passed on the annotations and exegesis of the scriptures, and got sixty-seven out of ten. The Confucians of the Song Dynasty worked diligently to eradicate falsehoods as if they were true remedies, and they were prepared in three or four ways. Therefore, it is necessary to first pass on the annotation and then explain it, and then explain it and then discuss it.
Always follow the original story, draw conclusions based on your own personal experience and experience, weigh it against the laws of nature, and human feelings. Don’t like novelty, don’t like eccentricity, don’t like slander, don’t be intrusive, calm my mind and ease my anger, and be full of subtleties. Make a debt. If a powerful crossbow is fired, it will definitely penetrate and hit the target. If we talk about crime and imprisonment with a stick, when the stick sees blood, the feelings won't be cruel, not broken, not absurd, not profound. I think that the high abyss is really clear, the open space is cheerful and sincere, and then I gain sympathy. The Six Classics have been cured, and Mencius has been mastered, and then the study of history has been established first. The great ones and the small ones cannot be taken away. There are six scriptures in my heart, Meng is the main one, and I will not deceive the traces of their ruin and prosperity. Just like holding a balance, like a hanging mirror, light and heavy, sleeping and rising, in my eyes, learning history also has a sequence. There is no division between classics and history in ancient times. Poems and books in the Spring and Autumn Period are all history. Because the sages deleted, fixed, and penned them, the great classics and canons are According to the classics, the rise of history began with the Han Dynasty, and pre-Qin books, such as Zuo's Chuan Guoyu Shiben and Warring States Policies, were all collected and recorded. There are no finished books, and Sima Qian's large group of books are written as historical records. It has been prepared for thousands of years. However, the refutation may not be pure, so it is okay to choose the pure one and abandon the refuting one. The historical records of later generations are all based on the same tradition but with minor differences. Their creation and establishment of laws and regulations compiled and inherited the Six Classics, taking the ashes of the three generations as the yardstick for a hundred generations. If Qian can be said to be a good person of the Shi family, Ban Gu's history of pre-Han Dynasty is comparable to Qian's. The main principle is to move, but the book is less encrypted. The history of the Eastern Han Dynasty was written by Fan Ye. He was a strange and curious person, so his books are similar to him. However, when discussing the situation of praise, the rules are inferior to Qian's. It is said that it is praise by itself. This is the wonder of my article, and I have made various prefaces without diminishing it. Compared with the past Qin Dynasty, Chen Shou's work in the Three Kingdoms was too personal, and his great achievements were often destroyed. It was not a biography of Pei Song, a heroic man of the generation, so he was framed by Shou. If there is an author in the future, he must change it and be punished for his longevity. Fen Zhaolie's dim light breaks through Cao Cao's ghost thieves, which is a speed through the ages. The history of Jin Dynasty was established in Li and Tang Dynasties, and everyone from Fang to Du returned home alone. It is full of false accusations and obscene things, and the record of them loses the historical style. The Three Kingdoms was too brief, while the Jin Dynasty was too complex, and the seven dynasties of the North and South each had their own books. In the Tang Dynasty, Li Yanshou wrote the history of the North and South, and he was very successful in describing events in words. However, his deeds were so filthy that although he wanted to write about them, he couldn't. The history of the Sui Dynasty was completed at the time of the rise and fall of the Tang Dynasty. There were some criticisms, likes and dislikes, and some were superficial. The two old books on the history of the Tang Dynasty were written by Liu Xu, but they were not complete and the writing was not up to the mark. The new books were completed in the Song Dynasty and Europe. Although the Song Zhugong's theory is complete, the text has the intention of doing something, or it may be exaggerated and the discussion is pure, which is not the comparison with the old books. However, scholars should start with the old and then the new. The two books of the Five Dynasties were all written in the old Song Dynasty. As soon as a new book is published, all previous history is discarded, so-called a cleansing. For those who have failed, the history of the Song and Jin Dynasties has not yet become the history of the Jin Dynasty. There are only many actual records of Song Dynasty affairs, and the summary of the affairs of the Eastern Capital is the most detailed. This is the history of past lives, which must be read by scholars, and the reasons for its abolition and prosperity in all dynasties. The traces of evil and righteousness, the cultural relics of the state system, state power and system, are calm and clear. At times, the tenets of the Six Classics are used to make arguments, and at other times, they are used to test their own opinions, and then they take the general lessons of Wen Gong and the discussions of Song Confucianism. Examining the right and wrong, this can be said to be a study of history. Scholars often have not seen the entire history, and are eager to get names, hoping to use them as a basis for talking and talking. As for the Tongjian, they are also incomplete. When they read the main purpose of the Tongjian in Zuogoujie, the subtle meaning of Duke Wen will be lost. So the achievements are shallow. After the history has been established, the scholars, Lao Zhuang and Li Yin are read, and the four books of Fu all come out with the same consistency. Although it is said that the Taoists have the best principles for their leisure, it is okay to retain their principles but not their accommodation. Although the book Su Wen is written by medical experts, it has been an important canon of the pre-Qin Dynasty for three generations. Scholars should also devote themselves to the book of Sun Wu Jianghuang. Xunzi discussed the idea that excessive curiosity leads to evil nature, but his distinction between kings and hegemons and his words of benevolence and righteousness cannot be discarded. Guanzi's book "The Overlord's Strategy" should be read even if it is not a king's way. Yangzi said that Taiyuan's Dharma was issued by Confucius and Mencius, and left his wishes to later generations. Some people may have different opinions, saying that there is a mixture of good and evil in nature, which dramatizes the Qin Dynasty. Meixin's discussion of affairs was reckless and usurped the Han Dynasty. Han Zi said that his writing was rather stagnant, Su Zi said that he used difficult and dangerous words and wrote superficial principles, but Wen Gong highly praised it. I think it is better than Mencius and Xun, and it may be suppressed or promoted, but it is not suitable to settle on it. Although it is appropriate to use its words but not its verses, it is okay. Jia Yi, Dong Zhongshu, and Liu Xiang all had books, but it was a pity that they still had the Warring States period. Apart from being active and horizontal, they studied Dong Zi's three strategies, which were clear and pure. Meng Ke's subjugation was not something Liu Jia had attempted. Wen Zhongzi was born in the north and south. After the partial refutation, when the Sui Dynasty was in full swing, he established the Hefenzhuang School of Education and became the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty. He can be said to be a great Confucian. His book was written by his disciples Dong Xue, Yao Dou and others, so when comparing it, there are too many rhetorical questions, which is very similar to the Analects of Confucius. As for its maxims and theories, there are things that Han Confucianism has never said, and they are inferior to Meng Ke's. Han Zi's books are rich and elegant, embodying the vitality of the Li and Tang dynasties. Compared with the Han family, it slandered the Buddha and Lao Lao and supported it. Zhou Kong and Meng Ke were inferior to each other. Since the rise of the Song Dynasty, the books of the Dukes, Zhou Cheng and Zhang's Xingli, Shao Kangjie's Xiangshu, Ou Su< /p>
