In fact, everything is good, it doesn't matter, the Tao is natural, when it is harmonious, when it is the same, when it is the same, it is the same, and the hard rules are against the principles of heaven.

But not everyone knows when to be with and when to be with it. Rational analysis cannot see through the principles of heaven, and relying on emotions is even more useless, so there is no point in studying this. The right way is to make the wrong choice, not to go against the will of God, not to go against one's own wishes, to forget oneself in heaven and earth, and a person's life and death gains and losses are all heavenly cycles.

That's all it takes.

Harmony and difference are gentlemen and hypocrites; The same is not in harmony with the villain, but also the one who knows the righteousness. If Confucius is said to be correct, then it can only be described as the opposite of the extremes of things. There is no big gap between a gentleman and a pest, a villain and a hero, one thought becomes a Buddha, one thought becomes a demon, there are Buddhas and demons in the gentleman, there are Buddhas and demons in the villains, what about the gentlemen and villains.

[Interpretation]: Harmony: harmony; Same: Agree. Get along in harmony, but don't go along with it.

From]: "The Analects of Zilu": "The gentleman is harmonious but different, and the villain is the same but not harmonious." ”

"The gentleman is harmonious but different, and the villain is the same but not harmonious. "A gentleman can maintain a harmonious relationship with the people around him, but he must go through his own independent thinking about everything, and he never wants to follow the crowd and blindly go along with it; But the villain has no independent opinions, only seeks to be consistent with others, does not pay attention to principles, and cannot maintain a harmonious relationship with others, which is in terms of dealing with people. In fact, on almost all issues, the difference between "harmony but difference" and "same but not harmony" can be reflected.

"Harmony without difference" shows the profound philosophy and high wisdom of Confucius's thought.

To put it simply, "harmony and difference" refers to a harmonious symbiotic relationship, that is, our body is composed of blood, flesh, bones, etc., which is a relationship between 1+1 and greater than 2; "Same but not harmonious" is a simple additive relationship, water plus water is still water, 1+1 or 1, there are no factors to improve and promote in it.

From "The Analects of Zilu 23".

The following are all copied:

Zi said: "The gentleman is harmonious but different, and the villain is the same but not harmonious."

Confucius said: "A gentleman is very amiable but will not agree with it, and the villain is obedient to the will of the people, but he cannot achieve neutrality and peace."

There are many explanations for quoting the similarities and differences between the words "and" and "same":

1) "Harmony" refers to harmonious coexistence, and "same" refers to the reluctance to achieve consistency.

2) "Harmony" refers to the combination of morality, and "same" refers to the combination of interests.

3) "Harmony" is just and peaceful, and "same" is a superficial opinion.

4) "And" refers to the same general principle, and "same" is the same as the details.

5) "Harmony" is seeking common ground in differences, and "same" means that it can only be the same and cannot be different.

We believe that seeking common ground while reserving differences, respecting each other and discussing well under the premise of the same major principles is the gentleman who is harmonious and different.

Wisdom of life. 1) Reluctantly seeking common ground, it is inevitable that each will have a ghost. When there is a conflict of interest, it immediately falls apart. Even if it doesn't break out now, there will be a major loss one day.

2) It's really dangerous that everyone has no opinion. When new friends see this kind of one-word atmosphere, I am afraid that they will not dare to join, and it is difficult to generate new breath.

3) The same but not the same, in fact, is a muddy mud. On the surface, it was a harmonious mess, but in the end it achieved nothing. Time has passed, and there is no way to undo it.

Harmony: Harmony; Same: Agree. Get along harmoniously.

Harmony, but while maintaining their own individual opinions.

1. "Same but not harmonious" means: catering to the psychology of others, echoing other people's remarks, but not having a harmonious and friendly attitude.

2. The source of "the same but not the same": from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period Confucius's "Analects: Zilu": The gentleman is harmonious but different, and the villain is the same but not harmonious.

3. "Harmony without difference" means: to live in harmony, but not to go along casually.

1. Source: "Harmony and Difference" comes from "The Analects of Zilu": "The gentleman is harmonious but different, and the villain is the same but not harmonious." ”

"Datong" is an ancient Chinese thought, which refers to the ideal world that mankind can ultimately achieve, and represents the beautiful vision of mankind for the future society. The basic characteristics are that everyone is fraternal and mutually helpful, and every family lives and works in peace and contentment, without differences and without war. This state of affairs is called "world harmony", and this kind of world is also called "world of great harmony".

From "The Book of Rites: Rites and Luqiao Bench Transport".

The road of the road also, the world for the public, the selection of talents and ability, the letter of harmony, so that people do not only kiss their relatives, not only their sons, so that the old have to accompany the end of the trip, the strong are useful, the young have grown, widows and loneliness.

The disabled are all supported; Men have a share, women have a home, the goods are evil and they don't have to hide in themselves, and the evil ones don't have to come out of the body and don't have to be for themselves. ”

2. Interpretation: "Harmony and difference" - harmony and difference, get along harmoniously, but do not casually agree with each other.

"Datong" - ideal world, Datong society.

To sum up, "harmony and difference, the party is the great harmony" means: everyone gets along in harmony, but does not casually follow the dust and dispel the dust with others, and behaves like a gentleman, such a world is the ideal harmonious Datong society.

To be harmonious and different is to live in harmony, but not to go along with each other.

Harmony and difference come from the Analects of Confucius, which is what Confucius said. Zi said: "The gentleman is harmonious but different, and the villain is the same but not harmonious." ”

Translation: "Confucius said: 'A gentleman is able to maintain a harmonious and friendly relationship with others in interpersonal interactions, but he does not have to agree with the other party in his views on specific issues.

The villain is accustomed to catering to other people's psychology and echoing other people's remarks in his views on issues, but deep down he does not have a harmonious and friendly attitude. ’”
