Kangxi’s famous quotes from his godson

1. You can’t bear to give up the prescription to get the true taste of the book

Tuition: Zhu Ziyun: “You must read to the point where you can’t bear to give up, and then you can get the true taste of the book. If you read too many times, you will get the true taste of the book. Those who have a brief understanding of its meaning will be disgusted with it, and those who want to read it elsewhere will not be interested in this book." This is extremely true. I have always been diligent in reading since I was a child. When I read a certain sutra, I will always talk about it and remember it. Over the years, I have read through it and found some that deserve detailed explanations. Zhu Zisi said that all readers should know it.

2. Developing virtue and cultivating one’s profession, relying on the classics and history

The teaching says: For ordinary people to develop virtue and cultivate vocation, everything should start from studying. If you read more, your appetites will be weak. If your appetites are weak, you will save money. If you save money, you will have less business. If you have less business, you will have high moral standards. The method of reading is mainly based on classics. Gou's classics are profound, and then he observes history. By observing history, you can know the virtues and foolishness of people, and you can easily understand the gains and losses in situations. Therefore, everything can be judged by the old and the young, but when it comes to reading, it does not matter whether it is the old or the young. If you read one volume, you will gain one volume; if you read one day, you will gain one day's benefit. This master is so angry that he forgets to eat, and it is as if he has failed to learn.

3. There are nine people in the mountain, no partiality.

The teaching says: There has always been knowledge of life, knowledge of learning, and knowledge of difficulties, and even if they are successful, none of them will exist. Those who have been away from school for a long time and are unable to reach the top should not wait for progress, especially not give up halfway. "Book" says: "For nine people, only one step will fall short." It is a pity for those who give up halfway.

4. The merits of learning are not beyond daily needs.

The training says: The merits of learning are not beyond daily needs. If you are in self-discipline, be careful in your words and deeds. When you are at home, be careful with your family. Respect your elders and read handouts if you are poor. If it is near and easy, you can use your strength now; if it is urgent and urgent, you can use your strength now. A day's effort will produce a day's effect. When you have doubts, if you seek help from others and ask questions, your progress will be immeasurable. If you don't use any strength now and waste your youthful years, even if you find a sage and learn from him in the future, it may not be beneficial.

5. Pursue knowledge through exhaustion of principles and gain it through practice

Tuition: Ancient Confucianism once said: "Pursuing principles is not one end, and what you get is not one place. Either you get it from reading, or you get it from reading. You can get it by talking, thinking, or doing. Although you can get a lot from reading, you can get it quickly by talking, and you can get it most deeply by thinking, and you can get it most practically by acting. Scholars who study things to gain knowledge should know it.

6. If you be patient for a while, you will realize that nothing is wrong.

Xun said: There is nothing in the world that cannot be overcome. If you be patient for a while, you will realize that nothing is happening. For example, trivial matters such as chickens and dogs among neighbors in the township party may lead to lawsuits and complaints from officials; or a joke may lead to a corner fight. All of this is due to the fact that a small moment of anger cannot lead to a major dispute. Confucius said: "A little impatience will mess up a big plan." The words of the sage are of the utmost importance.

7. Do your best to obey the destiny of heaven

The ancients said: "Do your best to obey the destiny of heaven." Oh, this is true! It is like doing your best to obey the will of heaven. Those who manage agriculture should be diligent in farming, but good harvests and poor harvests are not necessary. Those who fail to fulfill their duties are abandoning their fields and neglecting the trees; those who are dissatisfied with listening quietly are those who pick up seedlings and help their elders. Confucius advances with courtesy and retreats with righteousness, so he does his best in human affairs. If you don't get it, you can say: "It's destiny." It's just to obey the destiny.

8. Learning to nourish the mind can also nourish the body.

The saying goes: Learning to nourish the mind can also nourish the body. If you can't afford to worry about distracting thoughts, your soul will be clear and clear, your blood and energy will be at peace, your illness will be gone, and your good will will arise spontaneously. This is the mutual support of internal and external affairs.

9. Stand firm and defeat selfish desires

Lesson: Zhu Ziyun: "When people do bad things, their hearts are uneasy. This is conscience. But when they are blinded by selfish desires, even though they have There is no way to win the clue. You must fight hard to avoid losing to him. If you know that this is not good, you should stand firm and go on the good road. When you are familiar with it, you will not be able to keep your selfish desires." Verses are the most important part of a person's mind. Conscience can overcome selfish desires, and this is the way to become a saint and a virtuous person. Those who wish to establish their body and mind should study these words in detail.

10. Keep everything in mind and body and seek truth for yourself

Tuition: Zhu Ziyun: "The method of reading should be orderly and consistent, consistent and calm. Reading the meaning of the sentence, you can experience the actual practice, and then calm down and understand, and gradually understand the meaning. Otherwise, even if you are seeking to gain something, reciting five chariots a day will be beneficial to learning!" This sentence is reading. It's very important. When people read, they originally want to keep everything in mind and body, and seek truth for themselves. Otherwise, what is the use of reading the book casually? All readers should take this as a lesson.

Imperial Family Instructions: Court Instructions of Emperor Kangxi in Vernacular Text

Imperial Family Instructions: Court Instructions of Emperor Kangxi in Vernacular Text

Court Instructions by Xuanye of the Qing Dynasty.

1. Everything should be done with sincerity. And not in vain.

The instruction said: We must be sincere in everything we do, and do not pursue false reputations. Since I ascended the throne at a young age, whenever I go to the ancestral temple to offer sacrifices or worship gods and Buddhas, I have been sincere and serious in my heart. Even when handling national affairs, I treat all ministers sincerely and do not engage in hypocrisy. Therefore, everything I do is done with sincerity and sincerity, without even a trace of hypocrisy.

Emperor Kangxi was at the center of a political storm and had been on the throne for sixty-one years. It was somewhat surprising that he actually regarded honesty and trustworthiness as a top priority. Most people in the world equate officialdom with a battlefield, where various methods such as conspiracy, fraud, and frame-up are concentrated. In fact, even though those hypocritical tricks may be successful in a short period of time, in the face of the supreme integrity and the piercing eyes, they will eventually become contemptible trivial tricks and will only bring eternal shame. Only when leaders have integrity will their subordinates feel amiable and trustworthy, and then they will confide in them and work hard for them. Integrity is a banner with infinite appeal that unites people. Integrity itself is the great wisdom from a high position.

2. If you keep your mind in reverence, your mind and body will be pure and centered.

The instruction says: Nothing in the world should be treated lightly and negligently. Even very small and easy things should be treated with caution. Start to maintain a cautious attitude before something happens, and you will be able to deal with it more cautiously when something happens. You must stick to the spirit of caution and prudence until the end, and make things as serious as the beginning. If you continue to practice the spirit of prudence and persist for a long time, and practice it repeatedly, you will make this spirit settle down in your life. In this way, nothing will be wasted or difficult to do in your own hands. Generally speaking, by placing a cautious spirit in your heart, you can keep your mind and body in a clear and middle position, just like having a master at home, and you can naturally handle household chores. This is what the ancients meant by "respecting and being direct." "The Book of Rites" begins with a famous saying about no disrespect. The sage only has one sentence to complete the profound truth.

Respect is an important principle of self-cultivation in traditional Chinese culture. It does not mean to maintain a blindly respectful appearance at all times, but to cultivate a serious and prudent mentality. This mentality Once externalized into personal temperament and style, an excellent ability to do things will be generated. Under a pair of focused, serious and cautious eyes, the complexity and difficulty of everything can be easily relieved.

3. Although employers should be trustworthy, they should not be trusted too hastily.

The instruction says: As a boss, although you must trust them when appointing talents, you should not trust them quickly or easily. Subordinates often look at their boss's wishes and cleverly adapt to his wishes.

If a boss prefers a certain hobby, his subordinates will definitely try to seduce him. I know all kinds of fun skills. Have you ever seen me prefer a certain kind of fun? For this reason, no fun skills can make me addicted.

The most rare thing when drinking the wine of power is sobriety. This sobriety comes from being fully aware of the various unfair means of seeking favors and competition adopted by subordinates. In order to uphold principles and maintain fairness, the boss must first dismantle the bridges that allow unfair means to cross in terms of his own preferences. In front of Kangxi, who could not overwhelm me with any skill, all opportunists could only look to the peak and rest their minds.

4. The benevolent regards all things as one.

The instruction said: A benevolent person regards all things in the world as one, and his compassion is triggered wherever he goes. If you give full play to this kind of love, then all people and things in the world will be covered by it. Express this kind of mood, and feelings of kindness and kindness will be produced accordingly. Whatever is beneficial to others, do it; anything that is not beneficial to others, give up. No matter how big or small the matter is, love is always endless; release my heart and strength to the fullest, and let all the destined people in the world receive my kindness one by one.

Any heart full of love is a vast ocean, possessing the holy power of immersing heaven and earth.

Although not every bouquet of waves can reach every corner of the world, as long as you have one breath left, you will continue to rise up and bravely and firmly control the vast sea of ????love. This is the heart of an emperor, a heart of an emperor with Manchu origin forged from the traditional culture of the Central Plains. From here we can also see the evolution process and great significance of the expansion of Central Plains culture into Chinese national culture.

5. Let yourself go.

The edict says: Who can be a human being without making mistakes? But some people make mistakes and most of the time they don’t take responsibility for them. This is not the case for me. When I accidentally blame others for being forgetful in casual conversations, I will take the initiative to take the blame and say: This is my mistake. Only in this way can people understand and even be moved by it. Some people even feel uneasy because of it. Most people who can take the initiative to take responsibility for their mistakes are those with high moral character.

If you make a mistake but are unwilling to admit it, you mistakenly believe that admitting a mistake means losing your dignity. Refusing to admit mistakes for the sake of dignity not only hurts the atmosphere of frankness and honesty among colleagues, but also exposes one's narrow mind that cannot withstand the storm, and turns one's dignity into a kind of lonely stubbornness. Leaders who take the initiative to take responsibility for their mistakes can not only move everyone while regaining their dignity, but also help create a positive atmosphere. A truth-seeking working atmosphere where we can get along frankly. Refusing to admit mistakes is tantamount to persisting in mistakes, and persisting in mistakes is tantamount to self-destruction.

Admitting mistakes is to correct them. Only those who can correct mistakes in time can continue to gain and strive for self-improvement.

6. People are usually clean. Then the body will be pure and clear.

The instruction says: You should keep clean whether you are at home or out. As long as people pay attention to keeping clean, a kind of Qingming Qi will adhere to themselves. If you are close to dirty things, you will be polluted by the turbid air, and the clear air will gradually be covered and obscured by it.

Human beings are the spirit of all things, and they should look fresh, noble and smart. Qing Qi is a kind of noble and wise Qi, while turbid Qi is a kind of dirty and stupid Qi. Clean air is a transcendent and ethereal thing, and only by maintaining clean living habits can it come quietly. Kangxi obviously required his descendants to pay attention to cultivating and improving their spiritual temperament in their daily diet.

7. Always be content with yourself.

The teaching said: "Laozi" said: People who know how to be satisfied will be rich. He also said: If you are satisfied with hiding, you will not be incurring shame. If you know when it is enough, you will not be in danger, and you can maintain a long-term path. Clothes are only used to protect the body. However, some people in the world are not satisfied even if they wear leather clothes worth thousands of gold. I don’t know that some people are just as comfortable wearing simple clothes. Food only serves to satisfy hunger, but some people spend huge sums of money to collect and store food and still feel dissatisfied. I don’t know that some people still feel happy even though they eat simple meals.

With this in mind, I have always consciously grasped the right measure of contentment. Even though he is the emperor, he only needs to dress appropriately; even though he is rich from all over the world, he never needs a variety of dishes for daily meals. This is not something I did forcefully, it was something I did naturally and naturally. When you see me like this, you should encourage each other with the virtue of frugality.

Once a person falls into the vortex of pursuing luxury, his desire will be driven by the colorful world on a path of no return that increases day by day and is constantly compared. This path will only leave an ending of wasted effort and regret. sigh. A wise person can stop and think twice before embarking on this road because he can penetrate the splendor of arrogance and see the essence of life enjoyment: clothing cannot cover the body, food cannot fill the intestines; he would rather choose to live rationally on the spiritual level Control and extend the happiness that comes with creation.

8. If you want to follow the law, you have to do it first.

The edict said: If a person like me, who is above all people, wants to implement laws, he must take the lead and set an example, so that people can naturally obey. Even if it is such a small thing as smoking, although it does not involve much harm, fires often occur because of it, so I always prohibit it. But it’s not that I don’t know how to smoke. I loved smoking at my adoptive mother’s house when I was young. Now we want to ban others from smoking, but we can’t help ourselves. What will we use to convince others? So I will never smoke again.

Only when those in power formulate and implement laws and regulations and make the same determination as Kangxi did to quit smoking and start from me can the laws be spread across the world in a fair and just manner. If you sternly ask your subordinates to be honest and refuse corruption at the conference, but you are crazy about taking bribes in private, no matter how strict the legal provisions against corruption are, they will only be reduced to a piece of paper that will first be ridiculed by yourself. If this phenomenon is not corrected for a long time and is allowed to grow in the dark, the world will become a black hole that can dissolve and swallow up all disciplines. The law is as great as heaven, and there are no exceptions, so that the power and dignity of the law can be demonstrated.

9. Constant hard work leads to relaxation.

The instructions said: People in the world generally like ease and hate hard work. I believe that people can only understand ease first by insisting on hard work. If you just settle for ease, you won't be able to stand the hard work. Therefore, the "Book of Changes" says: The movement of heaven is healthy, and a gentleman strives to constantly strive for self-improvement. From this point of view, the sage sees hard work as a blessing and ease as a disaster.

After a long period of pampering, you will be out of breath when you work occasionally; after sweating profusely, you will have an occasional rest, and you can best enjoy the breeze. Kangxi's view that he can achieve ease through constant hard work is indeed a wise saying. Only through diligent labor can we create and enjoy comfortable happiness. Diligence is an important pillar of life that depends on both good times and bad times.

10. Think about what is right or wrong. Just for a moment.

The instruction says: As long as a person's mind moves, he will form a thought. Whether the thought is righteous or not, is formed in an instant. If this thought is not correct, you will know it in an instant and correct it immediately, so that it will naturally not stray too far from the path. "Shangshu" says: A sage will become a dissolute person if he does not think carefully, and a dissolute person will become a saint if he can think carefully. The generation of a thought is very subtle. When it is quiet, it is stored in the body. When it occurs, it must be carefully examined. You must make it look up to you without any shame, that is the real skill. Therefore, the ancient sages focused their attention on defense when the idea of ??defense first arose, before things started to happen, so they used very little force but achieved huge results.

This is the righteous work advocated by the ancients. People must learn to self-examine the thoughts formed in their minds, place this thought on the big stage of heaven and earth, and judge its rights and wrongs, pros and cons. Keep the correct and beneficial thoughts and extinguish the wrong and harmful thoughts. As long as you can self-examine the buds of your thoughts and make appropriate choices, you can gain a complete victory before things happen.

1 1. Mortal people have special aspirations. This is the way to maintain your health.

The instruction said: If a person can concentrate on an art or a skill, his mind will not be attached to foreign objects all the time, which is very beneficial to health. The surviving officials of the Ming Dynasty and those who were good at calligraphy among the predecessors of our dynasty that I know all lived a long life and were in good health. There are also Han people who are good at painting. Those whose skills are more outstanding than others can live to be seventy or eighty years old. They are in good health and their paintings are as good as usual, and they do not look old. It can be seen from this that having a single-minded orientation of the mind is the way to maintain good health.

Kangxi once said in the previous article that all arts cannot overwhelm me, and here he advocates concentrating on one art and one skill. Isn’t it contradictory? The art in the previous article refers to inviting friends to indulge in fun. The art here refers to specializing in an elegant skill. The former art can easily cause those in power to fall into corruption and affect the fairness of decision-making; the latter art allows people to concentrate on being alone and cultivate their body and mind. If you don't use any skills to focus your energy in life, you will always be attached to external things and feel empty. You can only chase friends everywhere, waste your energy in eating, drinking and having fun with others, wasting your time, and in the end you will not only have nothing. He even brought back a jealous resentment; but once he left the crowd, he felt bored, isolated, and even dared not face his extremely empty self. It is really better to concentrate on a skill, which can not only improve the skill, but also regulate the mind and body.

1 2. Give it something. You must choose what you need.

The edict said: It is inevitable for people to receive and give gifts.

When encountering other people’s birthday celebrations or other happy events, of course you have to give some gifts, but you must choose something that the other person needs and is useful, or give something that he likes in daily life, so that you can give it to the fullest extent. My thoughts.

Otherwise, just because someone else gives me a gift, and I give him a gift in return, it is equivalent to exchanging the name of the gift. People should pay attention to these things.

Kangxi’s giving of gifts to people emphasized the principle of being useful or desirable to others. The purpose was to express one’s ambitions through things, which were reflected through the gifts given out. My sincerity and sincerity towards my relatives and friends make a small gift illuminate the friendship in the world. In today's society, the phenomenon of reciprocity is more frequent and complex. Those fake cigarettes and fake wines that have succeeded in the gift market cannot be said to be a long-term exhibition and humiliation of the world's people.

1 3. Reading more will weaken your appetite.

The instruction says: Improving morality and achieving achievements in life must start with reading. If you read more, people's hobbies and greed will fade; if hobbies and greed fade, various expenses will be frugal; if expenses are frugal, people's various greed and greed will be reduced; if greed and greed are reduced, The quality that people establish for themselves will tend to be noble.

The reason why reading more can dilute people's cravings is because reading itself first takes up the time and space where cravings arise; more importantly, reading is talking to experts, and the truth in the book can dilute people's cravings. The realistic atmosphere that is most likely to produce cravings. If you cannot be transcendent and independent of this atmosphere, your life will inevitably be oppressed by the surrounding atmosphere of competition and comparison, making it very confusing and panicky. Therefore, Kangxi said: If the camp is small, the character will be high.

1 4. Keep your ambition. Don't be angry.

Instructions: Mencius said: Maintain ambition, but do not be impatient. If people want to improve their health, it is difficult to go beyond these two sentences. Why? If there is really no rush, then the mind will naturally be peaceful; if the ambition can always be kept unchanged, the mind will not be shaken and changed by the outside world, and will naturally be stable. Is there anything more important than maintaining your health?

Ambition unifies and determines the main direction of life value, and can lead people into an ideal realm of life that transcends the status quo. The road to ambition is full of twists and turns; the fierce and impatient mentality on this special road seems too short and too simple, and cannot withstand the tossing and teasing of various complicated road conditions. Only a peaceful mind can generate enough wisdom and endurance to clear all the obstacles on this road one by one. With ambition, you will have a stable state of life layout; this kind of stability is a kind of persistence and determination that is not tempted by distractions and is not intimidated by dangers. With both the guidance of ambition and the corresponding heart and strength, such a life must be a truly confident, fulfilling and developed life. Kangxi's famous sayings
