Ami participated in the same topic PK on WeChat and asked Zen Master Hongyuan, which are the three treasures of Confucianism?Hongyuan said that the three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism each have three treasures, and the three treasures of Confucianism are benevolence, wisdom, and courage. The Three Jewels of Shakya are Buddha, Dharma and Sangha (the Three Jewels of Living), and Enlightenment, Righteousness and Purity (the Three Jewels of Self-Nature).The Three Treasures of Taoism are kindness, thrift, and letting. If you compare the three families and the three treasures, it will be easier to understand where their treasures areIn fact, the essence of Chinese traditional culture, that is, Chinese culture, is in the three treasures of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism. Therefore, Confucius, the founder of Confucianism, said: "When you hear the Tao, you can die at night." ”
The Three Treasures of Confucianism: the benevolent are not worried, the wise are not confused, and the brave are not afraid. Benevolence should be tolerant and kind, and have the virtue of great love to build harmonious community relations;A wise person must have real talent and practical learning, and have the innovative wisdom to solve problems;The brave must have a firm will, dare to move forward, and be able to meet all kinds of challenges. Confucianism corrects qi, Haoran righteousness, and heaven and earth endure forever. Its emphasis is on self-cultivation, cultivating benevolence, wisdom, and courage in one, self-cultivation, governing the country, Qi family, and leveling the world. Cultivating it to create the common people with righteousness, and cultivating it with evil will ruin the living beings. The core of the Three Treasures of Confucianism is only one word of "modesty", and the essence of Confucianism, "benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, and faithfulness" and "filial piety, loyalty, faithfulness, courtesy, righteousness, and honesty" are all attributed to one word of humility. If a person is not faithful, unfilial, unkind and unjust, how can he be a human being?Disloyalty, unfilial piety, and unkindness all stem from the lack of humility in the heart.
Wang Yangming said: "Today's people are sick, and most of them are just proud. A thousand sins and evils all come from pride. Pride is self-exalted and refuses to bow down. Therefore, if you are proud of your son, you will not be filial;If you are proud of it, you will not be ashamed;If you are proud of your ministers, you will not be loyal. The unkindness of the elephant and the unkindness of Danzhu are all the words 'arrogance', and they will result in a lifetime, and there is no way to save them from being a person who is extremely evil and sinful. "Hitler was a crazy war maniac, he was arrogant and had no humility, so he ended up in a miserable situation of going to the Jedi**. Only when a person is humble and virtuous can he embrace all things and enjoy blessings.
All the famous Chinese, especially those who have a huge historical impact on mankind, are all all-powerful Confucians, Confucius, Lao Tzu, Wang Yangming, Zeng Guofan, ** are all typical Confucians, they have mastered the three treasures and nine changes of Confucianism, they have both the wisdom of the world and the mind of birth, they can not only promote the righteousness of Confucianism, but also follow the natural right path of the Tao to change the vicissitudes of life, and can also bless the bodhisattva righteousness and compassion to the world. In particular, the three treasures of Confucianism, benevolence, wisdom, and courage are the key to success, and everyone can have them. The Three Treasures of Confucianism are not only an ideal, but also a practice, a realm and a quality. They can not only help us improve our own literacy and ability, but also help us build a more civilized and progressive society. We should all learn and inherit the Three Jewels of Confucianism, and let wisdom, benevolence and courage become our attitude and creed in life!
Ami told Hongyuan that he liked the Confucian concept of "learning from things" very much. In this life, people are constantly studying the truth of things in order to obtain the real thing. It is a pity that many of us do not have the benevolence, wisdom, and courage of Confucianism, or the benevolence is not enough, or the wisdom is blinded, or the courage is lacking, and we miss the luck, and it is difficult to make any great achievements in our lives. If you learn to learn to learn things, start from your own heart, and have all the treasures in your heart, why can't you achieve it?Very wealthy, the world, good as water, but good life;May everything be as you wish, Amitabha!
