The full text of "Ten Useless" is: "Bad intentions, Feng Shui is useless; Parents are unfilial and it is useless to serve God; It is useless to make friends if brothers are not at peace; It is useless to study if you misbehave; Doing things perversely, being smart is useless; It is useless to be arrogant and knowledgeable; Being rich and heartless, it is useless to accumulate; It is useless to rob people of money and give; At the expense of vitality, medicine is useless; It's not good luck, and it's useless to ask for it. " Why do you engage in "useless" things? Probably because Lin Zexu did not distinguish the dialectical relationship between right and wrong and the end.
"Ten Useless" runs through the light of being immune, which makes people feel like a spring breeze. In reality, such examples are common: writing and other bodies are misbehaving; Obsessed with feng shui help but not seeking self-improvement; I don't care about my parents, but I respect the gods from afar ... These people are using the pursuit of things outside their bodies, while ignoring and concealing their self-cultivation. A person is not filial to his parents who give life and help him grow up. He must be at odds with his brothers and sisters, and he is generous with chaff. How can he help and care for others? How can a person who relies on external divine power to dream of success have firm ideals, beliefs and perseverance?
After reading Cui Ziyu's Motto, Bai Juyi said, "I admire it, but I have failed to do my best, so I always study it." In his subsequent "Continued Motto", he wrote: "I am proud of things without meaning, and I am far from insulting others. Seek things without color, and respect yourself. You are different from evil, and you are neighbors. " That is to say, don't be arrogant and arrogant, so as to stay away from the humiliation of others; Don't try to get things done by clever words, so as to respect your personality; Keep away from evil people when making friends, and live with gentlemen. He also wrote: "cultivate outside and inside, rest and be true." Emphasize both internal and external cultivation, and rest to make it peaceful and sincere. In fact, the enrichment and improvement of self is far better than feng shui and the protection of the gods. You don't have to give up the near and seek the far, but you should look for and tap your own initiative.
"it's useless to take people's money in vain; Lust and lust are useless. " By cheating and plundering other people's wealth, even charity can't offset sin, and it's useless to do good afterwards and accumulate more virtue (that is, "Yin Zhi"). It warns people not to be good and not to do it, but to do it with evil. Remember that "the flowers are getting more attractive." Qianlong was endowed with "Openness and Openness" by Yuanmingyuan: "Digging the pond to watch the fish, being frank and swinging again. When asked how to answer, Fish Le Fish knows it ... "This is really an open state!
"Ten Useless" also puts forward the principle that morality must come first when considering a person. Every society has specific moral values, values and codes of conduct, and individual behavior must meet the requirements of these concepts. "Doing things perversely" means being different from others by not following morality and rules, and displaying cleverness. This kind of behavior, combined with reading some books, as an opportunistic technique, is bound to cause more knowledge and greater harm to society. Reading is to realize people's all-round and free development, not to cultivate exquisite self-interest and speculators.
"Ten Useless" points out that life is a step-by-step process, and planning and success complement each other. Do things according to karma, not only what your bosom friend can do, but also what he can do. When the fortune is not available, that is, the objective conditions are not enough to meet the subjective requirements, if you seek it hastily, you will lose something. To unify subjective desire with objective reality, assess the situation and follow the trend is to combine "seeking" with "luck", which has profound practical guiding significance. This reminds people of the common word "H" in the Summer Palace and the Forbidden City, which means calm, serene and sudden, and one word embodies rich cultural heritage.
It has been more than 17 years since the "Ten Useless" came out. Every generation has different backgrounds in living and doing things, and everyone's attitude, methods and experiences towards it will be different. For example, sometimes savings are powerful, and sometimes self-expression is valuable; Sometimes we pursue the effect of a strong man's broken wrist, and sometimes we stress that things are slow and round. People's understanding of "Ten Useless" will be different, but as ten goodwill reminders for future generations, it embodies the basic moral concept of being a man and doing things, and can also be said to be the bottom line and high-voltage line of personality signs, which makes people constantly urged and vigilant.
