Where does the ceremony begin? Yue: People are born with desires. If they want but can't, they can't want nothing. It is an indisputable fact to seek the boundary without measuring it; Struggle is chaos, and chaos is poverty. The late king hated the chaos, so he divided the etiquette and righteousness to nurture people's desires and give them desires. If you want something, you will never be satisfied with it, and things will never give in to it. The stalemate between the two is also the result of the ceremony. Therefore, the owners support them. Straw and rice beams are fragrant with five flavors, so raise your mouth; Pepper is fragrant, so raise your nose; Carve and carve, write articles, so eye-catching; The bell and drum control the chin, and the harp is loud, so the ear is lifted; The appearance of the house is sparse, and there are several tables of banquets on the bed, which is also healthy. Therefore, the owners support them.
A gentleman has his support, but it is good to be different. Say goodbye? Yue: There are grades, ages, rich and poor, and all of them are important. Therefore, the road to the son of heaven is getting more and more seats, so the body is also raised; Side bearing testicles, so raise the nose; There was a wrong balance before, so raise your eyes; And the voice of love, the military image in the step, tends to be in the middle, so the ear also lifts; The dragon flag has nine forks, so it keeps the letter; Sleep with tigers, dumplings, silk powder, and therefore raise Wei; So the horses on the road will believe it, teach it smoothly, and then take it, so it is also safe. Who knows that the reason for her husband's death is for health! Who knows that the reason why my husband pays is to raise money! Who knows, the reason why my husband resigned respectfully is to raise peace! Who knows that the husband's courtesy, righteousness, arts and sciences are all educated! As long as an old friend lives, he will die; Greed is harmful; Being lazy and stealing cowardice is safe, but being lazy and stealing cowardice is dangerous; Love is fun, if it is, it will be ruined. The old friend is in courtesy and righteousness, and both are obtained; One is emotional, and the other is lost. Therefore, Confucianism will make people have both, and Mohism will make people have both. This is the difference between Confucianism and Mohism.
There are three kinds of rituals: those who live in heaven and earth are the foundation of life; Ancestors are the foundation of class; Jun and Shi are the foundation of governing the country. No heaven and earth, bad life? No ancestors, evil comes out? No monarch, no evil? The three are partial to death, and there is no peace. Therefore, the ceremony, the matter of heaven, the matter of land, respect for ancestors, feldspar army. This is the third etiquette book.
Therefore, you are the emperor of heaven, I dare not be bad, and doctors have a constant Sect, so don't be expensive; Your beginning is the foundation. The suburbs stop at the emperor, and the society stops at the princes, Taoist priests and literati, so don't respect people, humble people, respect the big and respect the small. Therefore, there are seven people in the world, five people in one country, three people in the land of five rides and two people in the land of three rides. Those who eat hand in hand are not allowed to set up ancestral temples, not to accumulate thick, thick and wide streams, and thin and narrow streams.
Big food, lofty respect, raw fish, big soup first, expensive to eat and drink. For example, if you want to show your high respect with wine, you should first millet and rice and rice. Sacrifice, qi soup and shame, expensive and pro-use also. Your book is called Wen, and your pro is called Li. The two are combined into a written document, and the freshman is called Dalong. Therefore, Shogen wine is highly respected, fish is still raw, and beans are the first soup. If you don't have fun, you won't taste it. If you don't eat it, you won't eat it. The stupa was not delivered, the ancestral temple was not buried, and the first pawn was not collected. The elements of the Tao are not gathered, and the suburbs are numb, and the mourning is scattered first. After three years of mourning, I can't cry. Song of the Qing Palace, sung with three sighs. The county bell is still ringing, and Zhu Xian has passed.
Every gift starts with a gift, turns into words and finally pleases the school. Therefore, I am prepared and my feelings are exhausted; Second, love wins; It is also a matter of returning to freshman year. Heaven and earth are in harmony, the sun and the moon are bright, the four seasons are orderly, the stars are in line, the rivers are flowing, everything is prosperous, likes and dislikes are the key link, and the mood is suitable. I think that the next is smooth, that the next is bright, everything is not chaotic, and the second is lost. Isn't it a gift? Li Long thinks this is extreme, but nothing in the world can make a profit or lose money. The end is consistent, the end is corresponding, and the text is different. It is said that the world is governed by those who are obedient and chaotic. If you go with it, you will be safe, if you go against it, you will be dangerous, if you go with it, you will survive, if you go against it, you will die, and the villain will be unpredictable.
The sincerity of etiquette is drowned in the observation of "firmness and whiteness" and "similarity and difference"; His reason is sincere. He is good at coding a humble statement. Its reason is sincere and high, its violence and slow, thinking that high belongs to the team and light vulgar. Therefore, if the rope ink is sincere, the merits cannot be deceived; If you are in Hengcheng County, don't bully others. If the rules are good, you can't bully Fiona Fang; A gentleman should judge by courtesy, not by deceit. Therefore, the rope is straight; Balance, level; Provisions, Fiona Fang to; Politeness is extremely humane. However, illegal rituals and lack of rituals are called unscrupulous people; Courtesy, foot ceremony, that is, a person who follows the rules. How can you think during the ceremony, that is, you can worry; How to get easy in the ceremony, how to get it in the solid. If you can think, you will be solid, and if you add goodness, you will be holy. Therefore, in heaven, it is extremely high; Those who are underground are very low; Infinite, extremely wide; Sages are extremely humane. Therefore, scholars and scholars are also saints, and people who are not specialized in learning are also unscrupulous.
Rites, with property as the use, with dignity as the text, with how much as the difference, with killing dragons as the key. The arts and sciences are complicated, and it is emotional and economical. It is also a long ceremony. The province of arts and sciences, the use of complex emotions, is also a ritual killing. The combination of literature, reason and emotion is internal and external ink, parallel and mixed, and it is also the flow in the ceremony. Therefore, the gentleman makes it prosperous, kills it to the best of his ability, and is also successful. This is just a step. It is an altar and palace for gentlemen. Man is a gentleman; Outside, the people also; Therefore, among them, Zhou holds it, and Song is a saint in its order. Therefore, if you are thick, the ceremony will accumulate; The big one, the ceremony is wide; The highest ceremony is long; If you are wise, you will do your best. The poem says, "Etiquette kills people, laughter kills people." . This is also called.
Polite people are willing to treat life and death. Life begins with people and death ends with people. In the end, everything is fine and humanity is finished. Therefore, it is a gentleman's way to respect the beginning and be cautious in the end, which is the case from the beginning and also the text of courtesy and righteousness. Respect his knowledge, slow down his ignorance, respect his life and ignore his death. This is a traitor's way. The gentleman takes care of the hidden valley with rebellious heart, but he is still ashamed of it. The situation is close to what he is now! Therefore, death is the Tao, and once it is done, it cannot be redeemed. I value my monarch, and I value my son because I have done everything. The story is disloyal and disrespectful, which is called wild; It is meaningless to die disloyal and disrespectful. A gentleman is humble and ashamed, so the coffin of the son of heaven weighs seven times, the vassal weighs five times, the doctor weighs three times and the scholar is heavier. Then there is the number of clothes and articles, and so on. These are decorated with respect, so life and death are always the same; One is enough to make people wish, that is, Wang Zhidao is the first, and the loyal minister and dutiful son are excellent. The loss of the son of heaven, moving the world, is a vassal; Losing a vassal touched the whole country and belonged to a doctor; Losing medical treatment and moving the country, returning to the monk; Losing a monk is a friend; Shu Ren lost the family party and moved to the state; For the funeral of criminals after serving their sentences, it should not belong to a family gathering, the wife is alone, the coffin is three inches long, the clothes are three collars, and the coffin cannot be decorated. It is not feasible in the daytime, and it is buried in a daze, without weeping, without clothes, and without moon intimacy. And it's all the opposite, it's all over again, it's all buried.
Politeness is for those who don't hate good luck or bad luck. After listening to the rest, the husband, loyal minister and dutiful son also know their sorrow, and the funeral has not been asked; Crying in fear, but fortunately, the heart of life has not stopped, and the living things have not stopped. Die, then do it. Therefore, although it takes more than one day to go home and prepare, it can be buried and served in three days. Then tell people far away, and the people who prepare things will do it. So the funeral only lasts 70 days, and the speed is not lost for 50 days. What is this? Yue: those who are far away can reach it, those who ask for it can get it, and everything can be achieved; Its loyalty is great, its festivals are great, and its writing is carefully prepared. Then the moon went to Buli, the moon went to Buzhai, and then it was buried. When the time comes, its meaning stops. Who can do that? Who can stop its just behavior? Therefore, the March burial, its appearance adorns the dead with life, hardly to let the dead rest in peace, which is also the meaning of longing for dragons.
Where the funeral is, change it, where the decoration is, move away, and be long and flat. Therefore, death is the way, if you don't act the role, you will be evil, and evil will not be sad; Love is embarrassing, jealousy is annoying, boredom is forgetting, and forgetting is disrespectful. Once he lost his strict relatives, but the people who were sent to the funeral were disrespectful and regarded as animals, and the gentleman was ashamed of it. So it is a decoration, so it is also evil; Move away, so I respect you; Long and flat, so eugenics also.
Rites, breaking its long and continuing its short, have more losses than benefits, reach the text of love and respect, and nourish the beauty of righteousness. Therefore, embellishment, hatred, vocal music, crying, happiness and sadness; It is anti-also; But at the same time, courtesy takes the place of royal. Therefore, literary decoration, vocal music, enjoyment, so flat and auspicious; You are evil, crying and worrying, so you are desperate to serve the fierce. Therefore, its literary decoration will not be destroyed once; It is evil, it will not be abandoned; Its vocal music is pleasant to listen to, and it will not be lewd and lazy; It stands crying and mourning. It won't hurt life, but it will flow in the ceremony.
Therefore, the change of feelings and appearance is enough to avoid good or ill luck, and the festival of nobility and inferiority is over. Outside is, rape also; Although it is difficult, a gentleman is cheap. Therefore, it is a traitor's way to eat according to the amount of food, take it by the amount, and destroy the barren land by high. It is also an indecent article, and it is also a filial son's love. It must be a promising person. Therefore, it is said that auspicious, sad and evil feelings are also expressed in colors. Folk songs, laughter, crying and trumpets are feelings of good luck, bad luck and sadness. Straw, rice, grains of wine, glutinous rice, fish, epimedium, and wine syrup are good or bad feelings for people who eat and drink. Humble, embarrassed, literary, intellectual, declining, flying ears, embarrassed, are all feelings of good or bad luck and happiness that are also sent to clothes. Sparse rooms, elegant appearance, excessive seats, mattresses and several banquets belong to the family, leaning against the cabin, paying for seats and pillow blocks, which stems from the feeling of good or bad luck and happiness living in the house. People with two kinds of feelings have an inherent end point in life. If a husband breaks it, he will know little, gain little, exhaust all kinds, and be glorious, so that it will be the beginning and the ceremony. If you are an unsuitable gentleman, you can know.
So: simple in nature; Counterfeiters, art and science flourish. Asexual love is false, without which sex cannot be self-beautiful. Sex is fake, and then it becomes a saint's name, and it takes a day's work. Therefore, heaven and earth combine to create everything, yin and yang change, and sex is pseudo-combined to rule the world. Heaven can be biological, but it can't distinguish things. The earth can carry people, but it cannot cure diseases. Everything in the universe belongs to people, and then to saints. The poem says, "Huairou Baishen, and Qiao Yuehe." This is also called.
Undertaker decorated the dead with living people, and elephants gave their lives to send them to death. Stories die like life, things die like existence, and the ending is the same. When you first die, you bathe, lick your body and eat as if you were alive. If you don't take a shower, stop with three laws, and if you don't take a shower, stop with three towels. If you put your ear to your ear, you will be born with rice and destroyed with bones, which will turn your life around. Set up obscene clothes, attack three people, and invite gentlemen without hooks. Hide your face and you won't be crowned. If you put the name of a book on its weight, the name will disappear and it will be unique. Presenter: cymbals on the crown, empty jars, seats without beds, poor wood, poor pottery, poor thin utensils, disharmony of cymbals, uneven harps, and horse against horse. Having a living device suitable for a grave is like moving a road. Slightly tireless, ineffective in appearance, hidden in pursuit of surplus, golden skin, no need to be clear. Like migration, it is obviously unnecessary, so it is so heavy. Therefore, it is useless to produce articles and use articles. Every gift, living things, decorated with joy; Death, mourning; Sacrifice, decorate with respect; Division brigade, decorated with prestige. It is the land of hundreds of kings and the land of ancient and modern times. No one knows its origin. Therefore, the ridge looks like a room; Coffin, which looks like a version of Gus' portrait; There is no trace of silk, and it looks like Wei Fei. Flexural and looks like a piece of paper. So undertaker did nothing, knew the meaning of life and death, sent them condolences and hid them for a whole week. Therefore, it is buried and buried, respecting its shape; Sacrifice and worship their gods; Its inscription is the world, and its name is Zun. Things are different, and the decoration begins; Death, final decoration; Finally, it has begun to take shape, the filial son is finished, and the way of being a saint is ready. Carve death with ink, carve life with death, and kill life and death as thieves. The elephant's life is to send him to death, so that he can be said to be suitable and kind from beginning to end. It is the way of courtesy and righteousness in France, and Confucianism is.
Three years of mourning, why? You should express your feelings and write articles, because you decorate this group. Don't be intimate with the nobles, but you can't get it or lose it. " . So there's nothing hard to do. It takes a long time to create a giant, and the more it hurts later, the loss of three years is called love and writing, so it is extremely painful. Cui Zi, Zhang Zhu, Julu, porridge, mat salary, pillows, so the decoration is also very painful. After three years of mourning, I ended in May with endless sadness and longing. However, the ceremony breaker will not die, but will be resurrected in moderation! Anyone born between heaven and earth must have knowledge, and those who have knowledge must love it. Today, the big birds and beasts lost their horses, and the month exceeded the time; Go to your hometown, just wander, sing, wander, wander, and then you can go. The youngest is Yan Jue. He has a glimpse and then he can go there. Therefore, people don't know that they belong to the flesh and blood, so they will die for their loved ones. If the husband is ignorant and immoral, he will forget when he dies; However, in the long run, it is the failure of birds and beasts, and he can live in groups without chaos! If you make peace with a gentleman decorated by your husband, you will lose three years and end in May. If you miss it, it will be endless. Therefore, the former king and sages made it a neutral festival, and once it was enough to become a liberal arts, it was abandoned.
But how to divide it? Say: the closest relatives want to break up. What is this? Yue: Heaven and earth have changed, and four o'clock has gone. Starting over is unique in the universe, so the same is true of the former king. But three years? Yue: It's a long story. We'll double the number of cases and arrange them again. From September to below? Yue: The case is not that good. So three years thought it was long, Ma Xiaogong thought it was killing, and September thought it was a time. Take the image of the sky above, the image of the earth below and the image in the middle from the people, so the people live in groups and live in harmony. Therefore, after three years of mourning, human nature is the deepest and husband is the most prosperous. It is the land of hundreds of kings and the land of ancient and modern times.
Your funeral will take three years. Why? Yue: The monarch, the ruler, the arguer, the original of arts and sciences, and the appearance of love are exhausted. Isn't it okay? The poem says: "A gentleman is the father of the people. A gentleman is the parents of the people. Fathers can be born, but they can't be raised; Mother can eat, but can't teach; You can eat it, and those who are good at teaching are also good. It will take three years to complete! Wet nurse, dieter and March; Love mother, clothes and quilt, September; Those who prepare songs for you will be finished in three years! If you get it, you will be ruled, if you lose it, you will be chaotic, and if you write, you will be absolutely. What you get is safe, what you lose is dangerous, and what you get is love. Two to three years, still not enough, straight from the ear. Therefore, society sacrifices society; Millet, sacrifice millet also; In the suburbs, hundreds of kings were sacrificed to heaven.
Funeral in March. Why? Yue: Greatness is also important. Because of its prosperity, relatives will move it away, relocate it and return to the mountains from the palace. The former king was afraid that he could not read, so he kept his days and his feet. Therefore, the emperor in July, the vassal in May and the doctor in March should contain things, things, things and things. This is the so-called Tao.
Sacrifice, ambition and admiration. It's too mysterious to be gone forever. When the old friends are happy, husbands, loyal ministers and dutiful sons are also cunning. I am very moved wherever I go; If the case has been compromised, people who are interested will be embarrassed and those who are polite will be absent. Therefore, the case of the former king was written for it, and it is very important to respect the meaning of kissing. So: sacrifice, ambition, love also. Loyalty, love and respect are paramount, and etiquette and appearance are prosperous. If you are not a saint, you can't know. The sage knows it, the gentleman is safe, the official thinks it is safe, and the people are vulgar; In the eyes of gentlemen, it is humane, but in the hearts of ordinary people, it is a ghost. Therefore, in fact, bells and drums are in charge of chimes, harps and instruments are used to make sounds, martial arts protect Xia Xia, and the image of hairpin slips is an article that makes gentlemen happy. Cui Zi, Zhang Zhu, Julu, eating porridge, paying wages and pillows are all items that make a gentleman feel sad for his deception. There is a system of mentoring and the criminal law is equal, so it is called a crime, which is an article that makes the gentleman hostile. Divination depends on the sun, fasting, painting, several banquets, giving recommendations, telling wishes, and so on. Everything you take away is a sacrifice, such as tasting. If you don't want to improve your title, your host will have respect, such as patting it. When a guest goes out, the host obeys him and sends him off, but he changes his clothes. When he acceded to the throne, he cries or goes. Love! To husbands! Things die like things happen, things die like things exist, they are invisible, but they are written. This article is Xunzi's exposition of etiquette. Xunzi's theory emphasizes ceremony, so this article is a very important one in the book.
The first paragraph: this paragraph points out that people are born with desires, and if they are not satisfied, they will cause fights and eventually they will be unable to clean up. Therefore, the former king formulated etiquette to meet people's desires and requirements, and etiquette appeared to balance desires and foreign objects.
The second paragraph: courtesy highlights three sources: one is heaven, the other is ancestor, and the third is monarch and teacher. Xunzi believes that the gift of the son of heaven is to respect this and be practical. The combination of the two became the embodiment of the emperor's gift, which is the most grand gift.
The third paragraph: The author thinks that the development of ceremony is a process, and the most complete ceremony is that its form perfectly expresses people's emotions. People are willing to accept such gifts. The function of ceremony is unparalleled, and so is its inspiration. Is the highest criterion of being a man.
The fourth paragraph: In this paragraph, Xunzi pointed out that etiquette is used to be cautious about life and death, and people can't be partial to one another. At the same time, use courtesy to carefully handle good and bad luck, so that good and bad luck do not hide from each other. In addition, politeness is used to complement each other, express love and respect, and develop good conduct. Human nature is wild, and man-made things (talents) have beautiful external forms. If they are combined, the world will be ruled.
Paragraph 5: This part of the text describes in detail all kinds of funerals and their meanings. The article points out that the funeral is consistent and the ceremony is followed, which not only embodies filial piety, but also embodies the way of saints. The article also criticizes the practice of martyrdom and holds that "it is a thief to kill it and die".
