The bright moon and the flute bring the cool breeze

Today's teachers groan about their divination, ask a lot of questions, talk about numbers, and advance without caring about their safety. They make people not sincere, and teach people not to use their talents; their application is perverse, and their pursuit is foolish. That is why they hide their learning and hate their teachers, suffer from the difficulty and do not know the benefit. Even if they finish their studies, they will soon leave. Is this the reason why teaching is not a punishment?

Peerless Xuanzun

When serving food to a gentleman, eat first and then stop; do not leave the food or drink it fluently; eat small portions and quickly; do not eat too much. The guest should drink by himself and stop when he says goodbye. The guest's cup should be on the left, and his drink should be on the left. Right; the jiejue, zujue, and xujue are all on the right. When offering fish, the tail is served; in winter, the fat is served on the right, and in summer, the fin is served on the right; when offering meat. In all cases, hold it with the right and place it on the left. Offer money from the left, and edict from the right. Servant of the corpse is like servant of the king. When in the car, hold the reins with the left and receive the jug with the right, and drink from the left and right. When offering sacrifices, offer sacrifices inside the sacrificial table. Gentlemen do not eat meat. Young men walk but do not rush, and when offering, sit down and drink when offering. When washing, wash your hands. Lungs of cattle and sheep , leaving without lifting the heart. All the dishes with scallions are not to be taken together. Choosing onions and scallions for a gentleman cuts off the root and the end. For the dish head, offer the beak to the ear. The left of the drinker is the highest dish. The pottery is facing the nose. Drinkers, those who worship, and those who offer sacrifices have to break the table and not sit down. Before stepping into the cup, do not taste the dishes. The fishy smell of cattle, sheep, and fish is cut into sashimi; elk is pickled, wild boar is xuan, all of which are cut and not cut; deer is made into piji, rabbit is made into wanpi, all of which are cut and not cut. Cut the onion into pieces like scallions, and put them in a sauce to soften them. If there is a person who breaks the table, take the sacrificial lungs, turn them over, and do not sit; the same is true for burning. For corpses, sit.

Masked Boss

The Master said, “If there is a car, you must see its rails; if there is a garment, you must see its wear; if someone talks about it, you must hear its sound; if someone walks about it, you must see its completion. The Ge Tan says, ‘If you wear it, you must shoot it.’” The Master said, “If you follow what you say, then your words cannot be embellished; if you follow what you say, then your actions cannot be embellished. Therefore, a gentleman speaks little, but walks to establish his credibility, so that the people cannot exaggerate his virtues and minimize his faults. The Book of Songs says, ‘The stain on the jade tablet can still be polished; the stain on this speech cannot be made.’ The Xiaoya says, ‘The gentleman is sincere, and the development is great.’ The Jun Shi says, ‘In the past, when the God of Heaven was in power, Zhou Tian observed the virtue of King Wen, and he gathered the great destiny in his body.’” The Master said, “The southerners have a saying, ‘If a man is not constant, he cannot be used for divination.’ Is this the saying left by the ancients? Even the tortoise shells cannot tell, let alone people? The Book of Songs says: ‘My tortoise is tired, but I still don’t tell it.’ The Book of Changes says: ‘The title is not equal to the bad virtue. The people stand up and do the right things. They are pure and offer sacrifices. This is disrespectful; things are complicated and chaotic, and serving the gods is difficult.’ The Book of Changes says: ‘If you don’t keep your virtue, you may suffer shame. If you keep your virtue, it will be auspicious for women and bad for men.’”

Old friends are gone forever

Confucius said: "In the common funeral, the son wears hemp, a hat and a sash, a thin mourning, a thin coat, and a stick. Enter from the gate and ascend from the west steps. If it is a small burial, the son takes off his clothes and follows the coffin, enters from the door and ascends from the east steps. The king, the officials and the scholars are the same." Zeng Zi asked: "After the king's funeral is held, what should he do when he hears about the death of his parents?" Confucius said: "Just do it. After the seal is sealed and he returns, he will not wait for you." Zeng Zi asked: "After the parents' funeral is held, when he arrives on the road and hears about the death of the king, what should he do?" Confucius said: "Just do it. After the enfeoffment, he changed his clothes and went.

Lord Tao was seriously ill and did not offer any suggestion for a replacement, which the officials in the court thought was resentful. When King Injo heard this, he said, "There are no cunning people at this time, so I will not pass on Mr. Tao's words." The wise men of the time regarded it as a virtuous message.
