I benefited a lot from reading the ancestral teachings of major surnames in China.

The so-called "ancestral teachings" refer to the teachings of ancestors to their descendants. However, the "ancestral teachings" contained in the genealogy are mostly spoken by the ancestors and ancestors, who use the name of the ancestors to impose their will on all the people. The function of "ancestral precepts" is to maintain the unity of the family from an ideological perspective. Moreover, the ancestral precepts shine with the glory of Yi culture and are worthy of learning and reference by future generations.

Family Poems

Riding horses out of the border, letting them set the rules everywhere;

I have lived in my home for a long time Country, my hometown has been my hometown for a long time.

Don’t forget your words in the morning and evening, and recite the incense of ancestors in the morning and evening.

God bless me, I am a golden retriever, twenty-seven men will always prosper.

Liu's "Poetry of Ancestors"

This poem is widely circulated. After giving birth to fourteen sons, he encouraged his sons to develop outward, not to care about their children, but to be obsessed with family. A poem was widely disseminated to inspire future generations and serve as the basis for future religious recognition. This poem was later regarded as a family poem by Liu.

Legacy of the Three Ancestors

Legacy of Han Ancestor Liu Bang

According to records in "Historical Records" and "Han Shu", after the founding of the Western Han Dynasty, Liu Bang, the great ancestor of the Han Dynasty, and a group of ministers Talk about the reasons why he was able to defeat Xiang Yu and stand out in the "Chu-Han War".

My husband can strategize and win thousands of miles away, but I am not as good as the ovary; in town, caressing the people, paying and feeding the people, I am not as good as Xiao He; even if there are millions of people, the battle will be victorious, and the attack will be victorious. I am not as good as Han Xin. All three are outstanding people and I can use them. This is why I conquer the world!

The legacy of Emperor Guangwu Liu Xiu

Liu Xiu inherited and carried forward the tradition of Liu Bang, accepted people from all over the world, listened to the opinions of the world, learned from others and used them, learned from others' strengths, and founded The century-old foundation of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Liu Xiu was a wise but down-to-earth loyal emperor, diligent in governing the country, strict in self-discipline, and opposed to exaggerated rhetoric and noble words and deeds. Liu Xiu left a lesson to his descendants:

Those who try to get closer will be in vain, and those who try to get closer will succeed by chance. Therefore, it is said: Those who are proficient in literature and practice will not have children, those who are good in literature and virtue will be strong, those who are self-possessed will be safe, and those who are greedy will be crippled.

Liu Xiu’s words warned his descendants: to be ambitious, forget morality for profit, and be greedy for money and profit. People whose goals are too high or too far have high ambitions and low ambitions. They are disdainful of the things in front of them and have some unrealistic dreams. In the end, they are just "work in vain"; those who forget about virtue will do anything by any means and lose morality. In the end, they will only be cast aside; those who are greedy for money cannot feel at ease even if they get something. A gentleman loves money, but he must get it wisely.

The legacy of Shu Zhaolie Emperor Liu Bei

Liu Bei was a rare benevolent and righteous king during the Three Kingdoms period. Cao Cao and Sun Quan often killed cities randomly during battles, but Liu Bei always put benevolence first, loved the people like a son, never killed himself, and was deeply loved by the people. As the saying goes, he who wins the hearts of the people wins the world. It was Liu Bei's benevolence and righteousness that enabled him to deal with the powerful forces of Cao Cao and Yuan Shao in the early Three Kingdoms period. He traveled around and sought refuge with others, making him popular everywhere. Liu Bei's virtue won the life and death followers of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, and the dedication of Zhuge Wolong. Therefore, in his last words, he placed this creed first among his warnings to the prince:

Encourage it, encourage it! Not for evil, not for good! Only virtue is good and you can convince people!

The Liu family’s genealogy records Liu Bei’s legacy. His choice between right and wrong, good and evil, and his personal code of conduct have been generally accepted by Liu and even the entire Chinese nation.

The above-mentioned "Teachings of the Three Ancestors" are widely circulated in the Liu family

They do wrong and violate their ancestors.

If you love an official, you must love the people.

Talented people can harm the wise, and poisonous people can harm the group.

People are better at prosecuting than animals.

Confusing profit with wisdom, disaster comes from the mouth.

My ancestors are in heaven, and the tsar is still alive.

The punishment of yin and yang must be punished, and the investigation must be deep.

Zu Youyin, Shunyong,

The descendants will be prosperous and live a long life.

Glory and shame, the new world,

Shide, the picket is faint.

Meager benefits, full recruitment losses,

Gods are wise, don’t insult Sven.

Yin troubles are caused by yang evil.

If you are poor but happy, your heart will be happy.

Burn, he will see clearly tomorrow morning,

The dandy has fallen into disgrace to his neighbors.

Xiao Wei-Xi'an, the prodigal son is like gold,

Revitalize the American nation and reach the top.

Justice and punishment, prosperity and prosperity,

May your descendants always inherit their family heirlooms.

Endless, thick, pure,

Zhang Deyang knows, abides by the rules and training.

——"Sanhuai Wang Family Tree"

The husband's words and deeds can be repeated, and he is loyal to them. Virtue is best when beauty is introduced. Showing off one's relatives means being filial. Brothers are happy, clans are prosperous, and people are extremely happy. Don't let money pass. These five principles are the foundation of a person's life.

Excerpted from "Langya Wang Family Genealogy"

3 Chen Shi

Obviously, my ancestors, Liu Fang, Xunzi and Sun in the history of the Han Dynasty, know original meaning.

Yang Yisi’s decree was even more auspicious, saying descendants, listen to my instructions.

Studying is the most important thing, followed by planting mulberries. If you're on the right track, what's wrong with you?

Be diligent and frugal, neither lazy nor lacking, filial and friendly, all six elements are hidden.

Benevolence, righteousness and integrity, the four dimensions of Zhang Bi, are also good at home;

Being an official in the government is conducive to loyalty and justice, God will bless you, and happiness will last forever.

If you recite the ancestral precepts, you will be violent and mad, and you will violate etiquette and laws, and your behavior will be good.

Insult your ancestors, offend him, God will hurt you and you will not succeed.

The most hateful thing is that they classify each other with disdain, do not think in the same spirit, and only talk about foreign lands.

When brothers fight, I feel sad. May my last name be Yi Yiyanxing,

Through blood, boundaries will disappear, you will return to harmony, and God will be well.

Don’t forget to take in relatives, go to church every year, and be with good people!

5 Shiyang

Loyalty: serve the monarch, make friends, never lose money, last forever;

Filial piety: respect your father as heaven, respect your mother as earth , respect descendants.

Diligence: work at sunrise and rest at sunset. Digging wells for drinking water and plowing fields for food;

Frugality: Measure how much you earn and how much you spend. What good is pitching if it doesn't save money?

6 Zhang Shi

Loyal and respectful, eager to obey the law.

Making a living after food benefit litigation.

Academics, farmers, and businesses all hold their own businesses.

Beware of funeral remarks and be careful about chasing far away.

Treat marriage with sincerity and respect.

Marrying a wife is a good idea.

Strictly speaking, it is internal and external, governing internally and governing externally.

Not being able to change positions is also filial piety.

Respect everything

Filial piety is the origin of every line.

When I was a child, I knew how to love beautiful things, but when I grew up, I knew how to respect beautiful things. Why did I succumb to convention and lose my heart? I don’t know how to be filial to my children, I don’t know how to treat my parents when they are born, I don’t know how to treat my love after thinking about it for a long time, I can do my best, I can take good care of myself, I am willing to be courteous, and work tirelessly, so I can be gentle, filial, and humane.

2. The Mu family

Since ancient times, the countryside and fields have shared joys and sorrows, helping each other and supporting each other when sick. People with different surnames are of the same race, but they are indifferent to each other. To make services into one, itching is related, celebration and communication must communicate with each other, and priorities must be connected with each other. Widows and solitude must be mourned; we must solve our difficulties. If you can help your ancestors for one day, you can avoid worrying for one day with your ancestors. If we all care about our own wealth, we will be regarded as Qin Yue. Even if there are trivial disputes, resentment will accumulate and we will not regard them as enemies. Book: "Kiss the Nine Tribes." Let's think about it.

3. Strive for the industry.

Scholars, farmers, and industrial and commercial people all have formal businesses. Your perseverance and ambition are your professional ears. Everyone has a certain degree of success. No matter what they are doing, they can achieve their own results just by being present. If you live here and admire another person, you will have a vertical heart and will inevitably neglect your own career. No one is different from you, you are still the same. Hard work, poor play. Although everything is difficult at the beginning, it is very expensive to finish. God helps everyone who helps Him, but He must encourage Himself.

4. Make friends carefully.

Don’t be careless when handing over. A person enters the room, the speaker speaks well, and the traveler adds the finishing touch. What children see and hear must not lead them into evil ways. Otherwise, if customs change, sages and sages will be inevitable, and the fools of the situation will not be able to reach them. Language: A thousand days is not enough to learn it well, and a period of time is more than enough to learn it badly. Li Ze pursues profits, but he is still cautious.

5. Brothers

Brothers are originally called brothers and sisters. It is said that when people have brothers, they have hands and feet. They cannot see each other through a layer of separation. People nowadays are shallow and narrow-minded, either because their brothers are weaker than me, or because they eat more than me and are convinced by women's words, so they think and analyze their cigarettes every day. Even because of trivial matters, we entered the room and were angry to compete for business. Therefore, the damage caused by outsiders can be overcome by removing the fence and letting the dogs out. Once upon a time, nine generations of Zhang Gongyi lived in the same house, and seven hundred people in Jiangzhou and Chen ate together. They were all human beings.

6. Training children

Yi: Just be enlightened. All children, whether smart, stupid, or kind, should put reading first. Even if the talents are not uniform, we must plan for them, carefully choose our methods, and make long-term plans. Don’t indulge in appeasement, let it perish. Gai is just young, every pity and occasional mistake will always be forgiven by ignorance. If you don't know the nature of the middleman, your success or failure will be impermanent. If you are not careful, you will be arrogant. If you are not careful, you will be extravagant. There are very few people who do not fall into vulgarity. He is shameless and does everything without embarrassing his grandfather. It should be noted that the water follower is square and round, and the film shape is straight. If you have the responsibilities of a father and an older brother, can you be careless with them? In addition, when you teach your children to learn, you must make good use of your time and not be too late. People often say that being too young makes a person ignorant, and learning a little more is just one year. I don’t know if it will last long, but it will be open to the outside world. Although I watched it, it’s hard to remember. No wonder mediocre teachers disappear after teaching for three or four years. It's just that when I was young, I was addicted to vulgarity and had no distracting thoughts. When he is a child, if he is strict with the teacher, enlightens his understanding, and reassures him, he will be able to judge whether he is good or bad. One time I was twelve, had I been working for a year or two? Stubborn children should not be blamed for their family difficulties

Avoid litigation at home. If something is wrong, take a step back and give it three points. There will naturally be less trouble. If you are tolerant, you will regret it. If you are a little angry and forget about your body and relatives, and praise your family members for fighting with others, it is because the snipe and the clam fight, and the fisherman benefits. It was a fluke to win, but it was a family expense. Therefore, underutilization must be called a loan, and overpayment must destroy production. This is also the reason why this lawsuit ended up being fierce. The Holy Spirit said: If you don’t tolerate it, you will mess up your plans. Try to think about it.

9. Obey the law.

The courts set an example of punishing stupidity.

Drinking, gambling, adultery, robbery, and all other illegal activities are extremely serious. If you don't follow the rules, don't be afraid of the three-foot rule. Once discovered, you will be imprisoned. If you don’t make mistakes in books, don’t despise your hometown, don’t insult your parents, and don’t burden your wife and children, what will happen? If you don't know how strict the law is, you should also know that your life is the most important. Instead of regretting it later, think ahead.

10. Inaction is prohibited.

You must take the right path in life, and then you can be an upright person. There are first-rate ugly people who have learned to fight, rob, hold others hostage, and show off their arrogance and cunning. They often rely on coercion and use their notoriety to commit crimes against princes. Such a failure would be a great insult to the family. All of us should be admonished: don't be idle and lose your job; don't play games and drink, it's a waste of life; don't fall into lawlessness, you will be punished; don't act recklessly, don't stand in trouble. You must cultivate your moral character, settle down, work diligently, and be a good boy if you are well-ordered.

Ten family mottos, concise and comprehensive, concise and concise, deeply affectionate, willing to abide by the precepts and encourage our people. The way of a husband is to cultivate oneself; there is still a chance to recruit you and know the fate of the monarch. He Fu did not regret the past momentarily, but was wary of punishment. Don't listen to those who tell you what you want to do. If you regard family motto as literature and self-motivation, you will be afraid that you will not learn anything and will be self-righteous and have many backers. He also knew that his family was illegal, but his parents were responsible for the crime. A virtuous man is a model for the township party, his family and his family commit crimes, and his parents are responsible for the crime. The sage is a model for the township party, and his clan and prosperity are enhanced; the brutality of the bandits is hated by the township party, and the clan is humiliated. After the training, he applied for admonishment and peace. The younger ones went to the Fang clan to blame, and the older ones went to court to punish the murderers. All of me should be encouraged.
