Zeng Guofan's letter

Zeng Guofan was a politician, strategist, philosopher and writer in modern China, and was the founder and commander-in-chief of Xiang Army. Zeng Guofan's letter has been at home for some time, and I always feel that my parents are short and have never opened it. I just watched it recently.

His letters from home are very different from our daily telephone calls. First of all, children go out to study and are reluctant to tell their families many things. Zeng Guofan's description of study and work is quite detailed. And there are many practical methods. Secondly, there are more only children in the family now, and we know less about the feelings of brothers and sisters. As the eldest grandson, Zeng Guofan's letter is full of expectations and educational methods for his brothers. Finally, the persistence of dreams and the contribution to the country are filled with feelings of home and country.

Among them, there is a letter to my brothers, and the general content is two learning points.

First, the temperature of fierce fire and slow fire

Zisi and Zhu were inspired by cook the meat. When reading, they need to concentrate on reading in a short time, grasp the general situation of what they read, and then chew the chapters carefully to get the essence of the book.

Classic books are worth learning from. In fact, many foreign books have also mentioned this method. Like how to read a book.

Second, the way of Gankun's rites and music

For example, in calligraphy, line is God, Kun is form, strength is joy, and silk is ceremony. A way of thinking that integrates opposites into one.

In addition, he also suggested that brothers analyze themselves daily, of course, in the form of diaries, and unify the paper and write in regular script for future binding. Are there many people keeping diaries now? Few people can wake me up three times.
