Lin Zexu’s patriotic poem: The sea accepts hundreds of rivers, and tolerance is great; standing on a wall of thousands of feet, without desire is strong.
Hainabaichuan is introduced as follows:
Hainabaichuan is a Chinese idiom, the pinyin is hǎi nà bǎi chuān, which means that the sea can accommodate the water of hundreds of rivers. The metaphor covers a very wide range of things, and the number is very large (it also means broad-minded). It comes from "Preface to Famous Officials of the Three Kingdoms" by Yuan Hong of Jin Dynasty.
The introduction of "You Rong Nai Da" is as follows:
You have Rong Nai Da, which comes from "Shang Shu", "Shang Shu·Jun Chen": You are not angry and stubborn. Nothing is better than a husband. There must be patience, and it will help. Tolerance is great virtue. "The Analects of Confucius·Gongye Changwu": Confucius said: "I have not seen anyone who is strong." Or he said to him: "Shen Xi." Confucius said: Xi also wants to be strong, how can he be strong?
The introduction of the analysis of tolerance is great as follows:
Yuan Keli's self-explanatory couplet was originally titled "Benefits are only modest, tolerance is great." In the 18th year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty, Yuan Fucheng and Suiyang Shangshu Yuanshi Family tree·Yuan Ke Li Shiluo means to be modest, prudent and broad-minded. This is also a sign of a person's cultivation.
Yuan Keli, a famous official in the Ming Dynasty, was demoted to the rank of civilian by Emperor Wanli because of his upright opinions. He only found success in twenty-six years. These are his own words of life insights. There used to be a saying in China that "the prime minister's belly can make a boat sail." Regardless of whether those prime ministers are generous people, people regard those who have a mind as broad as the sea as respectable people.
Yuan Keli is a broad-minded man. Later, he was appointed as the right minister of the Ministry of War to inspect military affairs in Denglai. He promoted and assisted the powerful general Mao Wenlong. After Mao became arrogant and unruly, he instigated officials to attack Yuan Keli. Yuan Keli was "strange for his (Mao Wenlong's) courage and wisdom". In order to maintain the overall situation of maritime defense and not want to be involved in endless internal fighting, he reported illness to the army seven times in a row.
His successors Wu Zhiwang and Yuan Chonghuan were narrow-minded. Yuan Chonghuan actually killed Mao Wenlong out of personal anger, causing chaos in the Dongjiang Army and the gradual collapse of Denglai defense.
There is a saying in the Analects of Confucius, which is called "Without desires, one must be strong", which means that if a person has no desires, he has nothing to fear and has nothing to fear. A monk who spends his whole life practicing in a monastery will not want to go to the West; a Taoist priest who spends his whole life meditating in seclusion will not want to ascend in the daytime.
