To talk about rules and keep the bottom line, we must first have a sense of reverence. Lü Kun of the Ming Dynasty said in the "Groaning Language": "Fear does not dare to be reckless and virtuous, and fearlessness is from what it wants." "The gist is to say that only by being in awe of one's heart and not daring to be reckless in words and deeds can we cultivate beautiful virtues and conduct." On the other hand, if there is no fear in the heart, it will act arbitrarily and invite disaster.
There is a saying in the Cai Gen Tan that "from the Son of Heaven to the common man, there is no one who has nothing to fear and does not die." Throughout history, many people have dug their own graves and buried themselves because they are fearless. During the Ming Dynasty,during the Apocalypse, the eunuch Wei Zhongxian had no discipline, formed a party for personal gain, excluded dissidents, arbitrarily ruled state affairs, and eventually hanged himself. Once people have no reverence, they will often be unscrupulous and do whatever they want, and eventually they will suffer from disasters and regrets.
Gentlemen have great fears. When Fan Zhongyan became an official, he was deeply in awe of the people and his work, afraid that he would not be able to perform his duties well, that he would be sorry for the people in vain, that the officials would bully and oppress the people and make the people suffer, and developed the habit of self-examination before going to bed. According to historical records, when he went to bed at night, he would save the day's affairs. Those who are good are familiar with sleep; if they are not good, they cannot sleep peacefully all night, and those who must ask for it to change, "the worries of the world before the world, and the happiness of the world after the world", will eventually become a generation of sages.
Evils often accumulate in the slightest. As the old saying goes: "Don't worry about the small, it will become a big problem; if you don't prevent it from being small, you will eventually lose great virtue." "Only by respecting the small and fearing the small, not crossing the thunder pool one step, and not exceeding the rules and half a point, can we go steady and far." The famous Tang Dynasty minister Lu Zhen was clean and upright, but some officials complained that he was not close to people. When Tang Dezong learned of this, he advised him: "Even if it is like a whip boot, it is no harm to receive it." Lu Yan did not think so, and wrote an article to advise: "As soon as the bribery road is opened, the development will be even worse. Whips and boots will not cease to be clothed; the garments will be untold, and the currency will be bound; the currency will be untold, and the carts will be the same; the carts will be incessant, and the golden bi will be the same. Lu Yan is so sober about the law of the development of things, "trickle more than " will inevitably develop into "streams into disasters.". Once the awe is "napped," it can evolve into a "deep sleep." Make an opening in some small things, and over time, you will also break down on major things, and eventually it will develop into a rout.
Since its founding, our party has always treated history, the masses, and power with a reverential attitude, and has persisted in "always diligently wiping away deviations in understanding, thinking, and behavior, and not stirring up dust." In order to jump out of the historical cycle rate of "its rise and fall, and its demise is also abrupt", the Second Plenary Session of the Seventh Central Committee of the Communist Party of China put forward the "two musts", which is a reverence for the laws of history. The "Ten Family Rules" of the proletarian revolutionaries of the older generation, such as "no invitations to give gifts and no use of public cars," and the "door rules" that Yang Shanzhou set for himself during his tenure as secretary of the Baoshan Mountain Committee, such as "do not close the door during the day and do not open the door at night," are all reverence for power. It is precisely because we are always in awe and constantly making efforts in self-purification, self-improvement, self-innovation, and self-improvement that our party will always maintain its vitality and vitality and always lead the great cause to flourish.
Whoever is good and afraid will have something right in his body, discipline in his words, and stop in his deeds. Party members and cadres should take root their reverence in their hearts, cultivate the consciousness and prudence of walking on thin ice and approaching the abyss, let power not deviate from the line, and not cross the line of conduct, truly use power justly, according to law, for civilian use, and honest use of power, and always maintain the political nature of communists.
