This scene made countless people around the lake tsk tut in admiration.
Now that the West Lake Poetry Festival has begun, everyone could not bear to break the elegant atmosphere, and they only whispered when they praised.
“A good Taoist, a good literary world, really everyone is immortal, like an immortal banished from the sky!”
I don’t know who said such a sentence, which caused the people around to keep nodding.
On the West Lake today, the breeze is floating, the water waves are gently floating, Shao Wen and other literary circles and Fuqing Daoist and other Taoist representatives gathered on the platform built by thousands of boats by boat. Everyone looked handsome and handsome. It is no exaggeration to say that he is exiled from heaven!
With the gathering of representatives of Taoism and literary circles on the platform in the lake, this West Lake Poetry Society officially began.
This cultural event is different from any speech gathering. Shao Wen and others are people with a calm temperament. This event is a dignified and elegant gathering.
Therefore, at the beginning, no one was going to shout about the start of the conference.
Hundreds of thousands of people had gathered on the shore at this time, but everyone remained solemn and paid tribute to this group of Taoist representatives and everyone in the literary world.
Chapter 579: Confucianism and Taoism
At this time, the literati representatives headed by Shao Wen and the Taoist representatives headed by the Taoist priest Fuqing, a total of more than 50 people, all sat on the platform in the lake.
After all the literary and Taoists paid their respects to each other, the West Lake Poetry Society officially started.
Shao Wen is the leader of the literary world and the initiator of this conference, so this exchange meeting started with him.
Looking at the representatives of Taoism present, Shao Wen slowly opened his mouth and said, “Confucianism has gone through more than two thousand years since ancient times.
However, many people in the world think that the way of my Confucianism is to respect the mean and the benevolence and righteousness. People in Confucianism are pedantic scholars who talk about benevolence and righteousness, but have no skills. ”
“That’s a bad word!”
Zhao Pu said: “The world only knows my Confucian benevolence and righteousness, but not the Confucian benevolence and righteousness, only for the people of the world, that is, the people in the country.
My Confucian people govern one side and govern the country, and have always been tolerant and benevolent to the inside.
The people in the country are all our blood compatriots, and Confucianism should teach them their etiquette, treat them with kindness, and make them live and work in peace and contentment~.
Of course, foreign countries, those who are not of our race, will have different hearts!
In the face of foreign countries, we Confucianism should use our strength to obey them and teach them with our strength. If there are savage people who refuse to obey the teachings, we should kill them to be an example!
This is the way of my Confucianism inside and outside.
The world only thinks that all Confucians are poor scholars, how absurd! ”
“What the two seniors said is very true.”
Shao Wen and Zhao Pu talked one after another, which attracted all the literati representatives present to nod their heads in agreement.
As Shao Wen said, many people today think that their Confucianism is just a group of weak scholars. Although they are full of poetry and books, it is difficult to take the lead when encountering things.
Is the so-called useless is a scholar.
But Shao Wen and Zhao Pu are trying to clarify to the Taoist representatives that this view is wrong!
They are Confucian people who pay attention to governing the country and the state, and bringing peace to the world.
When you govern the people in the country and treat your fellow citizens, you naturally educate them with propriety, righteousness, integrity, and so on. When you manage them, you will be generous and benevolent, and you will not take any harsh measures.
But Confucianism has never been polite to foreigners and outsiders!
In a nutshell, it is Zhao Pu’s sentence, “If you are not my race, your heart will be different!”
As for aliens, there is only one Confucian philosophy, that is, to conquer them with absolute power!
Those who obey the control will be restrained and educated. If anyone is dissatisfied, they will all be killed, and they will never show any sympathy!
This is the true internal governance of Confucianism, as well as the means of dealing with foreign countries.
Those so-called Confucian disciples who only preach benevolence and righteousness can only be said to be nerds at best, who have been reading books for a lifetime, but do not know the true meaning of their own doctrines.
When Zhao Pu and Shao Wen talked about the principles of Confucianism, their voices were clear.
There is nothing to block the West Lake, and the voices of the two can easily reach the shore.
Although it is not clear, it is enough for the people by the lake to hear it clearly.
Many people were shocked when they listened to their expositions on the principles of Confucianism!
Yes, as Shao Wen said, many people think that the benevolence and righteousness of Confucianism is nothing but weakness and incompetence.
Until today, they know that Confucianism is not a group of nerds, but a bloody suppression method for internal benevolence and righteousness externally!
After some reporters around the lake heard this, they began to record quickly.
Many people in the country do not know these ideas.
If it were published in the newspapers, it would certainly be able to make the domestic public’s view of Confucianism take on a whole new look!
On the platform in the lake, Daoist Fuqing and other Taoist people were communicating with each other after listening to Zhao Pu and Shao Wen’s explanations.
They are Daoist children, and they do not have a thorough understanding of some of the true principles of Confucianism.
Today’s remarks by Zhao Pu Shaowen really opened the eyes of many Taoist representatives.
After communicating for a while, Daoist Fuqing shook his head slightly.
“The idea of Confucianism, although benevolent to the inside and deterrent to the outside world, is somewhat brutal.”
Saying that, Daoist Fuqing looked at Shao Wen and the others.
“My Taoist thought is to pay attention to the nature of Taoism, to rule by inaction, and to obey people, but the common people in the world think that the concept of Taoism is to do nothing, and it is so bad!
The Taoist way of doing things is natural and does not govern. It actually means that when governing the country, one should obey the laws of nature, rest with the people, treat the people of the world, and not forcibly interfere with their daily behavior.
But it’s all based on rules.
You Confucians have also said that a circle cannot be formed without rules, and this is also true of my Taoism in governing the country.
Those who govern the people of the world, although they do not interfere with their daily actions, must not go beyond the bottom line of the rules. ”
“What Daoist Master Fuqing said is true of Taoism.”
After Daoist Master Fuqing said this, beside himA group of Taoist representatives called for goodness.
From ancient times to the present, many people who do not understand Taoism have a half-understood understanding of Taoism’s principles and principles.
In fact, this view is simply wrong!

Taoism’s so-called “governance with nature and inaction” refers to not interfering with the lives of the people.
Just as the country needs to have laws, and people need to have moral rules, these things are recognized by Taoism.
The so-called inaction is nothing more than not coercing the behavior of the people.
For example, the people want to farm the land, and the people want to do business. The Taoists will not govern their personal wishes, but such wishes cannot go beyond the law and morality.
In front of Daoist Master Fuqing, Shao Wen and the others nodded slightly.
They have also more or less understood the concept of Taoism. These things have something in common with many teachings in Confucianism, such as no rules and no square.
On the shore at this time, many Daoist disciples, as well as many people who knew little about Daoism, also secretly understood the words of the Taoist priest Fuqing in their hearts.
…
In Taoism, the concept of conforming to nature and governing by inaction sounds so general that many of them only understand the superficial meaning.
It is believed that conformity and inaction means that everything develops by itself.
Today, many talents realize for the first time that Taoism also values some rules, but they don’t use various rules and regulations to restrict the people of the world too much.
This point is actually contrary to the legal theory of the Legalists.
The concept of Legalism, simply put, is to regulate the people’s words and deeds, and even to abide by strict rules in daily aspects such as farming, travel, clothing and food.
But Taoism is the opposite.
Their philosophy of governing the people of the country is that within the rules, managers should intervene too much with the people and allow the people to live and develop freely.
And this, before Daoist Fuqing expounded Taoist principles, many people did not realize it.
・・・・・・・・・・
For a long time, many Chinese people have misunderstood Confucianism, thinking that Confucianism is weak and incompetent. But I am quite skeptical of these claims.
I have a little knowledge of Confucianism and Taoism, so I would like to briefly explain my views. If Confucianism were really cowardly and incompetent, there would be no Han Wudi’s ruthless military force, nor the fortitude of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and there would be no emperor of the Ming Dynasty guarding the country.
Confucianism is not the cowardly incompetence that everyone knows, it is the result of being deliberately smeared by some people. Confucian culture is an important part of our traditional culture and a great doctrine of our culture. It is generous to the inside and bloody to the outside.
Chapter 580: Crowds of people
The 20th of January is destined to be an extraordinary day for the people of the whole country.
On the West Lake in Hangzhou, Shao Wen, Zhao Pu, Li Jisheng, Cheng Li and other literary leaders, together with dozens of domestic literati representatives, held a grand poetry meeting on the West Lake.
Along with it, there are countless representatives of domestic Taoism.
Dozens of Taoist representatives, headed by Taoist Master Fuqing of Laojun Mountain, including Taoist Master Qingxu of Zhongnan Mountain, Taoist Master Qingyun of Baiyunguan, Taoist Master of Shanyang of Kunming Jindian and other Taoists from all over the country, came here to participate in this grand event.
A total of more than 50 top representatives from Confucianism and Taoism gathered on the West Lake for a warm exchange of ideas.
At this time, the breeze was blowing above the West Lake.
In the center of the lake, dozens or hundreds of boats are connected by cable rings, and wooden boards are laid on the boats to form a broad platform.
More than fifty representatives of Confucianism and Taoism were sitting on the platform, explaining the profound meaning of Confucianism and Taoism respectively.
Confucianism is represented by Shao Wen and Zhao Pu.
Taoism is headed by Taoist Fuqing and Taoist Qingxu.
In fact, this gathering, which was originally called the Poetry Conference, evolved from the beginning to a grand gathering of Confucianism and Taoism.
09
Before this conference, people from all over the world who love Confucianism and Taoism, as well as countless literary and Taoist disciples, all gathered on the shore of the West Lake.
In just one morning, the number of people gathered on the shore of the West Lake exceeded hundreds of thousands!
