Today I will study the fifteenth rule of the Analects.
Original. Zigong said: "Poor but no flattery, rich but not arrogant, what is it?
Zi said: "Yes." Those who are not poor are happy, and those who are rich and courteous.
Zigong said: ""Poetry" cloud: 'If you cut like a study, if you think like grinding', what does it mean to be with?

Translations. Zigong said: "Poor and Lu Tong is not flattering, rich but not proud, how is this performance?
Confucius said, "It's okay. But it is not as good as the poor and willing to do, and the rich and respectful of manners.
Zigong said: "The Book of Songs, Wei Feng, Qi Ao says: 'Just like trimming bone corners and jade, we must continue to learn from each other and strive for excellence.
That's what you mean, right? Confucius said, "Yes, now I can discuss the Book of Songs with you!"
Tell you one thing, and you can play on your own and comprehend another. ”
Study notes and tips.
This is a wonderful dialogue between Confucius and Zigong. When you are poor, you can at least do the right thing, because poverty has a lot less worries, and you can do what you need to do. "Rich and courteous", ancient etiquette is very important, hail but the realization of etiquette often costs money.
If a rich person has a thick bottom, it will make the whole scene solemn and noble, and the person will look more elegant. "If you cut like learning, if you are early, you can be frank and grinding", that is, keep improving, so that you can play your own and understand another thing. When people are poor, they can better show the level of their aspirations, and at this time, in addition to having no flattery, if they continue to do the way and take pleasure in it, they will be close to the realm of human perfection.
Wealthy people can also do the way, that is, in addition to not being arrogant, they must also be courteous. In this conversation, we saw Zigong's skills, his thinking ability is good, and his expression skills are also very good. Confucius's views on the rich and the poor.
