Qing Wei | original text - sacrifice Confucius text: Kong's scholar does not fade

In the past, Yao, Shun, and Shi Rende ruled a state; there were Zhou Chengyin merchants who followed the ritual law to seal the country. Then there is an imbalance between the inside and the outside, and the thief grows on his own, and he who knows the virtues of the ancients will be pleased by his people. When they lose their people, they will not be arrested. If the great sage is like this, when he reigns for three lifetimes and does not fade, he will continue to exist for a hundred years, but the learning of Zhongni has been passed down for thousands of years, and it is also the Law of the Hundred Worlds. It says that trillions of people are accustomed to becoming China.

The saints do not speak, the truth is not aware, and if the sages are self-evident, it is difficult to raise the country in vain. So Confucius was zaizhongdu, taking the law of the four directions, xinyi ruling shangjia, and poetry dingmingtang.

Confucius's learning is profound, he knows much about the laws of the previous generations, unifies the righteousness of the three generations, and wants to follow through them with liturgy. Why did it collapse? Therefore, please resign and travel among the countries of the pre-Zhou Dynasty in the hope of enlightening the Lord and manifesting his law. His karma was not completed, and after fourteen years, he returned to Lu.

Confucius's view of the rise and fall of governance, the most beautiful in ancient times, is called Datong; then gradually declined, called the well-off; and as for the present, it is also a chaotic world. It is to build an altar of apricots, so that the lost people can get their soil, and gather three thousand people, hoping to indoctrinate the fortunes of the world and restore them to Zhi Zhiye.

Confucius made Spring and Autumn, Zhou Yi used the Ming Dynasty to govern inside and outside, and studied poetry and books and music ceremonies to show the legacy of the homeland. His Fa has been passed down for three generations, and as for Zi Si, there are also Dr. Dong Fuzi of Han who has entered his words, and Han Wengong, Cheng Zi, etc. have repeated them, and the world is changeable, while Confucius's words have not changed, and the elders of Kong's family have not faded.
