"Persuading learning" begins with "a gentleman says: learning is impossible, a gentleman is the same, and goodness and falsehood are true in things". It is the representative work of Xun Kuang, an outstanding thinker in the Warring States Period. It warns the world to regard learning as the compass and beacon of life. The following are my thoughts on Xunzi's persuasion. Welcome to read!
Xunzi's Thought of Persuading +0
"Persuading to learn" begins with "a gentleman says: you can't teach yourself, a gentleman is born different, and the good is in personal leave". It is the representative work of Xun Kuang, an outstanding thinker in the Warring States Period. It warns the world to regard learning as the compass and beacon of life.
To be a studious person, you should act like a thinker and think like a doer. In the process of reading, we emphasize "erudition, questioning, deep thinking and discerning". Learning with purpose, thought and problems can naturally get twice the result with half the effort. Third, reading is still expensive in applying what you have learned. In daily life, we should combine hard study with independent thinking, learn from the wisdom of our predecessors, think about our own progress methods, record our own experiences and practice with actions.
Xunzi said, "Perseverance can't carve a rotten wood." The attitude of learning needs to reach the spirit of perseverance, but not all students are aware of this, even if they are very clear, they may not be able to carry it out. Some people give up halfway before they understand the true meaning. Don't hesitate! Some people are anticlimactic and ignore the unremitting efforts of the other half. Finally, they plant watermelons and get sesame seeds. Don't hesitate!
Accumulated soil makes mountains, and wind and rain make mountains. Water becomes an abyss, and dragons grow in the abyss. If you accumulate goodness in Xiu De, you can be noble. People live for knowledge and live for reading. Life is limited and learning is endless. "If you don't accumulate steps, there will be no miles; If you don't accumulate small streams, you can't become rivers and seas. " That is to say, in life, if you pay a little attention to your study, you will find that there will be gains at all times, big or small, more or less. Many a mickle makes a mickle. Over time, you will find yourself a knowledgeable person, telling us that perseverance is the key to success. "Xu ten drive, thanks; Never give up, the stone can be smashed. " Learning knowledge and increasing talents is a long and arduous process, and there is no shortcut. Only when you have no distractions can you resist loneliness, temptation and interference, calm down and learn step by step, connect with practical learning, and persevere in learning, so that you can gain something and improve.
"Persuasion" made me understand that "a thick iron bar can be ground into a tiny embroidery needle, relying on tenacious spirit, and a trickle can penetrate hard stones, relying on the indomitable spirit". Just like: Diligence is a good training, and an effort is a harvest.
Xunzi's persuasion thought II.
Xunzi discussed the importance and attitude of learning with his eloquent eloquence and rigorous logic. He encourages the world to learn. He is earnest and thought-provoking.
Xunzi pointed out that "learning cannot help itself" is very reasonable. Knowledge is a vast ocean. With the progress of society, knowledge now is far richer than in ancient times. Knowledge changes with each passing day, and experience accumulates over time. No one can say that he has covered the knowledge of all mankind. Learning is like swimming in an ocean of knowledge. One day can't stop, and one moment can't waste. Only by long-term persistence and continuous progress can we reach the other side of knowledge. The treasure house of knowledge is full of mystery. Obviously, it is impossible to open the door to success with old knowledge. Only by expelling the old, absorbing the new, and constantly acquiring the latest information to enrich the mind can we not be confused by the chaotic phenomena of things in colorful real life. "You can't learn by yourself", once you stop learning, you will fall behind the times and be eliminated by the tide of historical progress, which is an urgent requirement put forward by the times. Only by constantly absorbing knowledge, nectar and nectar, sweet juice and honey fruit can we improve ourselves.
Confucius and his disciple Yan Hui had a wonderful conversation. Yan Hui said, "Bamboo in the South Mountain is born straight, so it doesn't need ink line calibration." Confucius said, "An arrow with a tail can't fly lighter and wear deeper?" Figuratively speaking, knowledge can increase talents. Deeply inspired, Yan Hui readily worshipped Confucius as his teacher. Xunzi also said: "If you have a rope, you will be straight, and if you have a sharp gold, you will benefit", which also shows the subtle role of learning. "If you don't learn, you won't have broad knowledge", while if you often learn, you can "do what Meiji did". Through the acquired study, we can completely change people's own defects, cultivate people's temperament, make people's behavior noble, make people's thoughts open-minded, make people's understanding thorough, make people's minds flexible, and make people's morality increasingly tend to the realm of perfection and beauty. Learning can change a person, and ignorance and mediocrity can become extraordinary wisdom. If we form the habit of learning, how much knowledge should we learn in our life! If you keep eating mulberry leaves like a silkworm and spit out smooth silk, then your efforts will benefit a lot and society will benefit a lot.
Learning is not window dressing, boasting or bragging, but learning from foreign objects as a platform, such as calling with the wind, which actually makes up for people's lack of ability, exerts the infinite power of ingenuity, and achieves the goal of "reaching a thousand miles, breaking the river" and transforming nature.
If you understand this, you will know that you can't tolerate any fake, half-baked and arrogant learning attitude, and you should oppose the attitude of dabbling, complacency and changing your mind. Instead, we should move forward in a down-to-earth manner, step by step, "realize one thing today and understand one thing tomorrow", step by step, gather small streams and persevere. There is a couplet that says well: "I'm overjoyed, but I blame the government at last." Greed is not idle. " Don't give up learning because it is trivial, and be afraid of learning difficulties. You must work hard over time. "The fast boat leaves late and enters Hong Kong late, and the stupid bird flies first and enters the forest early." Climbing the top of Wan Ren, every step is equally important, and it is impossible to reach the top without rapid accumulation.
Confucius said, "A gentleman learns Tao and wants to be complacent. If you are complacent, you will get a long time. If it takes a long time, it will be safe, and Ann will take its source. " Learning doesn't happen overnight. "The most useless, nothing too exposed day is ten days cold." Exquisite handicrafts are printed by hand. Dripping water wears away the stone depends on perseverance, perseverance, consistency, concentration and single-mindedness. Although earthworms have no advantages as minions or strong bones and muscles, they can freely penetrate into the soil, eat the soil and drink yellow water. We need this spirit in our study in order to reach the realm of freedom from the inevitable realm of knowledge and enter the realm of free use.
Reflections on Xunzi's Persuasion to Learn 3
Learning is a profound word. In learning, we have achieved self-growth, self-maturity and self-success. Xunzi's persuasion is a tireless teaching of a person's long life path. After understanding Xunzi, we may be able to "walk without columns and sticks", so as to achieve "learning and being chic, living and being happy."
The first sentence at the beginning of "encouraging learning" is "learning alone is not enough." Modern society has also put forward the concept of lifelong learning. Never too old to learn is not only an inherent requirement, but also a most basic living condition that the ever-changing society requires us to achieve. No matter what we study for, we must keep in mind that "a gentleman is learned and cares about himself every day, so tomorrow he will know if he has done anything wrong." Zhuang said: "My life is limited, but my knowledge is also limited. It is almost impossible to follow the limit number with the limit number. " Life is finite, knowledge is infinite, and dealing with infinity with finite will put you in a dilemma. Zhuangzi's view of learning and Xunzi's view of learning seem to be somewhat contradictory, but after careful consideration, they can achieve a strange harmony. If we want to "learn everything" and "be safe when there is no limit", we need to find a fulcrum or a bridge that can bear the two. What will the fulcrum be? I think it is to find what I need in lifelong learning. It can be a means for you to make a living, a source of your interest, or a kind of self-cultivation knowledge. In short, it can make people "live in the world and walk in the crowd". This may be the ultimate goal of Xunzi's "learning is impossible".
Know to learn, but how to learn, this is a very important problem. "I've been thinking all day, it's better to finish what I've learned in a short time. I am tasting and looking forward to it. It is better to learn from it. " Learning needs action, and more importantly, we should be good at using the help of foreign things. Newton said, "If I see far, it is because I stand on the shoulders of giants." Only by making good use of our own resources can we learn what we want better-gentlemen are born different, and so are good and fake things. The ancients knew how to find the right way among the ancient sages, cultivate one's morality, keep one's family in order to rule the country and level the world. Ancient books are things that need to be used more. "Reading thousands of books is better than taking Wan Li Road." Why can you learn so much knowledge in walking and traveling? First of all, I can be exposed to different customs and cultures, which not only broadens my horizons, but also broadens the breadth of my own cultural accumulation. The second is to be able to communicate with people from different cultural backgrounds. Communication is an excellent way of learning. As Bernard Shaw said, "You have an apple, I have an apple, and we exchange these apples with each other, so you and I still have an apple. However, you have an idea, I have an idea, and we exchange these ideas with each other, so each of us will have two or more ideas. " This is the charm of communication. Living in modern times, we are extremely happy. We can not only use books, newspapers, magazines and television, but also use the network that reduces the earth into a village. "Climbing to the heights" and "following the wind" are the ways for the wise to read.
Study hard and concentrate. "Take one step, not ten; Ma Xu, ten drivers, never give up ","perseverance, a stone can be opened ". Whether you learn well or not depends on your attitude. "Stupid people learn in a smart way, and smart people learn in a stupid way." Stupid people should use various methods to keep up with others, and smart people should be down-to-earth and give full play to the spirit of "earthworms have no claws, strong bones and muscles, eating soil and drinking graves, and being single-minded". In ancient times, we need to learn the spirit of hanging books in a corner, reflecting snow in a bag, and digging walls to borrow light. Today, we need to study the hard work of Huamanshi calculus draft. Diligence and hard work may not be rewarded, because we have not achieved "one heart" and "two eyes can't see, two ears can't hear." Therefore, it is not difficult for us to understand that Dong Zhongshu can become a Confucian master in the Han Dynasty because he can see the garden but not the garden.
"Encouraging learning" is an inexhaustible wealth, from which we have gained too much.
Xunzi's Thought of Persuasion 4
When I first read "Encouraging Learning", Xunzi sometimes talked about things and sometimes people, which made me feel disorganized. But after reading it carefully for three or four times, the idea gradually became clear. What Xunzi wants to tell us is the process from knowing oneself to cultivating oneself until achieving oneself.
The hardest thing to be a man is to know yourself, just like the mantra of Zen, "Who am I?" . In order to facilitate our understanding, Xunzi has temporarily set a position for us. I am "green", "green, take it from blue, for blue"; I am "ice", "ice, water is colder than water". If "blue" and "water" represent the basic standards of being a man, ask yourself, have I done it? Not to mention the realm represented by "green" and "ice" required by Xunzi.
Through geography and natural phenomena, Xunzi told us step by step that everything has a chance to form and understand what people should look like. People are human because we stand on the shoulders of our ancestors, constantly expanding our understanding of the world and constantly surpassing ourselves through continuous learning. Therefore, people are different from livestock because they have the ability to learn, but it is only a fine line: "For it, people are also; Give it up, the beast is also. " Sometimes people are called "walking dead" because they have no ambition. If a gentleman can marry one, he will meet the basic conditions of being a man.
Xunzi taught us how to be a man. His father is very compassionate and patient. From the phenomena and events between heaven and earth to the outlines of poetry, calligraphy, ceremony, music and the Spring and Autumn Period, a simple example is given to tell us a simple truth: "This is the way to be a man." But why are our lives disappearing? Why do we drift off the main road? Because we forget what we should do, "learn from Japan and save ourselves."
Because of greed, anger and delusion, people's minds are blinded. We turn a blind eye to the natural laws displayed by all things in the world and turn a deaf ear to the way of being a man advocated by saints. Xunzi simply distinguished two attitudes towards learning: the study of gentlemen and the study of villains. If you only have "listening and speaking" without "heart", such learning will not help you. How can we improve our self-cultivation? We should "listen to our ears, concentrate on our hearts, spread our clothes on our bodies and shape our movements".
Here, Xunzi tells us two ways to break down obstacles and open up wisdom. First, first of all, we should be knowledgeable and learn what we have learned by heart; Then, reflect on your own mentality, whether your words and deeds conform to the way of being a man, stick to it correctly, and give up wrongly; Finally, achieve the unity of heart, mind and action, and act in the world as much as possible according to the Tao. Of course, we should also keep learning, reflecting and doing things. If this goes on, our minds will continue to expand and our realm will continue to improve.
Second, practicing according to the method of "abstinence, determination and wisdom" similar to Zen can also be successful.
Xunzi warned us that although we are born as "human beings", we are no different from "animals" if we don't study hard and don't know our true nature. Xunzi also told us that after continuous cultivation, the standard of "human" is: "If a husband can respond with confidence, he is an adult."
It is difficult to be a "human", but in "Encouraging Learning", Xunzi is not only satisfied with being a "human", because shine on you is better than blue, and how to become a "saint" is his earnest hope for us. When people surpass themselves, they enter the realm of "saints". To surpass oneself is not to be detached from things, but to be extremely humble and think that you are useless. Xunzi's description of the realm of saints can't be found in Quanxue, but he pointed out the only way for us to become "saints". He mentioned at the beginning that "learning is impossible"!
Thoughts on Xunzi's Persuasion of Learning 5
At the end of the Warring States period, Xunzi, a famous philosopher and educator in China, wrote in Perseverance: "Perseverance is unyielding; Perseverance can open the stone. " If you can't insist on carving, even rotten wood won't break; But if you keep carving, even metal and stone will be carved through.
This perseverance is especially needed in study. You can't dabble, you can't be self-righteous with a little knowledge, and you can't be depressed with a little setback. This can't be successful.
In study and life, many failures are not inevitable, but because of giving up prematurely. Persevere, go forward and meet the challenge, and you will have a chance of success. Although sticking to the end may not be successful, giving up halfway will definitely not be successful. Justus von Liebig, a German chemist, missed out on new elements when he studied seaweed. After suffering from cruel criminal law, Sima Qian, a historian of Han Dynasty, persisted for thirteen years and finally wrote the first biographical masterpiece "Historical Records" in the history of China, which is famous in history!
For an ambitious person, no obstacle or difficulty can stop him from moving forward. As long as he has indomitable faith, he can overcome everything. Perhaps, failure again and again will inevitably make us feel depressed, but if we stop or even retreat, we will never reach the other side of success.
Pessimists regard the setbacks and valleys on the way forward as bad luck, while optimists regard misfortune and predicament as the steps and motivation for rising. Once we have established the correct goal, we will make unremitting efforts in this direction. There are twists and turns in the road ahead, and the speed of progress is fast and slow. But if we persist, we will not give up, and we will have a chance to taste the sweetness and smoothness of victory!

Xunzi's famous sentences
Famous sentences in Xunzi
1, a gentleman must choose his hometown when he is born, and he must be a scholar when he travels. Therefore, he is close to righteousness against evil.
From Xunzi's Persuasion. Travel: making friends. When a gentleman chooses a residence, he must have good neighbors, and when making friends, he must choose noble people and idle people. The reason for doing this is to prevent yourself from going astray and being able to embark on the right path.
2, take and get, and then become it.
From Xunzi Confucianism. In short, it refers to the objects pursued and the things done. Pursue with your heart and you will get something; Only by doing it seriously can we achieve something. This sentence shows that if you want to gain something and achieve something, you must put it into action.
3, saints don't mix, then Yingjie arrives.
From Xunzi Wang Zhi. Unscrupulous means immoral and bad. Then, then, just. Sages are different from villains and mediocrities, and they are not treated equally, so people will come to defect. This sentence shows that only by giving courtesy and respect to talents will they be willing to work.
4, perseverance, rotten wood can not be carved; Perseverance, the stone can be carved.
From Xunzi's Persuasion. Cut and cut. Give up, put down, stop. Carve, carve. If the carving work stops halfway, even decaying trees will not be cut down; Sculpture is persistent, so even stones will be hollowed out one day. This sentence shows that carving is a metaphor, which means perseverance in learning. This metaphor, if extended, can also explain a truth. As long as you have perseverance and perseverance, you will succeed in the end.

From the Outline of Xunzi. Educating people who should not be educated is like giving food to robbers and borrowing weapons from enemies.

Otherwise, it is tantamount to giving evil people a sharp weapon and hurting more people.
