Fear is a manifestation that even animals have. Fear is fear, fear is fear. Fear of the performance, do not dare to easily offend the ear. This is more common in the animal kingdom than in human society. Because the so-called animal kingdom is a hybrid genus. Human society, after all, coexists with the same kind.
All the legal codes in the world added together still cannot solve all the problems of right and wrong in human society. There are quite a few questions of right and wrong that do not fall into the law, which are still related to what the human heart is.
So in addition to the law, human culture advocates reverence for conscience condemnation. Conscience, good heart. Good is good, so conscience is first and foremost a good heart. If you are not kind, a heart that has been beating for 80 years, even if it is still as strong as the heart of an athlete, it can only be said to be a good heart. Such a person has no conscience to speak of. People who have no conscience can hardly last long, and people who are not good but not bad are sooner or later. For he thought he had not broken the law, when in fact he was on the edge of the legal grid, and any wind of temptation would most likely cause him to fall into the pit of sin of breaking the law. Moreover, every risky thought of a person standing on the edge of the law, and the complacency of the lucky person who passed by, are also the reasons for his eventual fall.
Conscience is not on the edge of the law. Conscience shines on the law all the time, so conscience is also called "heavenly conscience", although invisible, but qualitative. Without a conscience, even judges can become bad judges, leading to the corruption of the law. Therefore, human beings must also fear the condemnation of heavenly conscience. Life is not only once for man, but also once for all living things. Thus life is not only precious but sacred to all the creatures that enrich the phenomena of the earth, beautiful and interesting. In addition to pests and germs that are not only harmful to humans, but also harmful to most other species of organisms, people should also cherish all life. Love the life of one thing, pity the death of one thing, this is the fear of life and death. Respecting life is not the same as fearing death, fearing death means not daring to live lightly. Neither the birth of human beings themselves nor the birth of other creatures. And even the corpse should be respected.
"Heaven and earth have laws, the four seasons have rules, and all things have laws." Man should also be in awe of the order of nature. Acts of destroying the natural order in a hurry or for no reason will result in severe punishment for humanity. Fortunately, today's human beings have a consensus on this.
Reverence is not fear but reverence. The psychology of fear cannot actually be transformed into respect. Reverence refers to respect born of reverence, not fear of others, fear of oneself and offense. Whether it is a person, a people, or a country, if there is little reverence, it is terrible, and in the end it will be very sad.
In China, to this day, are there many people with a sense of reverence, or are there many people without a sense of reverence? This is a question that we Chinese must face up to and that must be answered honestly.
