Mencius s life mainly influenced his major events

Introduction to Mencius Mencius (c. 372 BC 289 BC) was a great thinker of the Warring States period and one of the main representatives of Confucianism. Ming Ke, a native of Zou (now Zou City, Shandong). He was born about the fourth year of King Lie of Zhou and died about the twenty-sixth year of King Zhou.

According to legend, Mencius was a descendant of the Lu nobleman Mengsun, who lost his father at an early age and came to a poor family. After completing his studies, he lobbied the princes as a scholar in an attempt to promote his own political ideas, and went to the Liang (Wei) State, the Qi State, the Song State, the Teng State, and the Lu State. At that time, several major powers were committed to enriching the country and strengthening the army, striving to achieve reunification through violent means.

Mencius's doctrine of benevolence was considered to be "far ahead and broader than things" and was not given the opportunity to be put into practice. In the end, he retired to lecturing, and together with his students, he "prefaced the poems and books, described the meaning of Zhongni, and composed the seven articles of Mencius".

I think the story of Mencius has the following influences: Mencius's Confucianism is a contribution to the Chinese nation; In particular, he proposed that the foundation and conditions for the development of the four kinds of morality of human nature, the inherent goodness of human nature, the hidden heart, and the acquired human beings have a certain impact on the psychological construction of the entire Minsha Hong clan. The sense of order that Mencius tried to establish also affected the hierarchy of the Chinese nation, parent-child relationships, etc.

It will affect the development of later generations, it will affect the policies of later generations, it will also affect the way of education will disturb the foundation, and it will also affect the development of the country, and Fengchun will also affect every family, because Mencius's ideas will really affect everyone.

Mencius thought. 1) People-oriented: People-oriented thought is the essence of Mencius's thought.

2) Benevolent government: The idea of benevolent government is the core of Mencius's political thought.

3) The royal road: "The royal road" is the highest ideal of the politics of the state and the family put forward by Mencius.

4) Sexual goodness: At the beginning of human beings, nature is good. Sex is similar, Xi is far away.

Mencius mainly advocated that the people are precious, the community is secondary, and the monarch is light. Mencius believed that the reason why the country perished was because the ruler lost the support of the people, and as long as the monarch always kept in mind the concept of "the people are noble and the king is light", cared for the people, and put the interests of the people first, then the country and the people could be peaceful and the country would last for a long time.

1. "The official of the heart thinks about it", emphasizing the importance of thinking.

Mencius Gaozi I said: "The officials of the ears and eyes do not think, the grand and good are hidden in things, and the things are handed over to things, and they are just introduced." The official of the heart thinks, thinks about it, and gets it, and if you don't think about it, you can't. Han Yu of the Tang Dynasty refined this as "doing success in thinking and destroying with it".

2. "If things are not even, the feelings of things are also", pay attention to the particularity of things, and emphasize the specific analysis of specific problems.

"Harmony but Difference" opposes the obliteration of the absolute identity of differences, and advocates paying attention to the connection with universality on the basis of attaching importance to particularity. "The unevenness of things, the feelings of things" further emphasizes the development of Mencius's idea of "harmony but difference" from the particularity.

3. "People can do nothing, and then they can do something", emphasizing the correct handling of the "not for" and "promising" factions.

Mencius Lilouxia said: "People have nothing to do, and then they can do something." This outlines the dialectical relationship between "not doing" and "doing", and only by not doing something in some things can lead to make a difference in other things.

Mencius's understanding of the relationship between "other doing" and "self-doing" shows that "it is easy to do things" in order to achieve good comparative benefits, and it also contains the understanding that only by doing something can we do something.

Mencius was a representative of Confucianism.

Mencius (c. 372-289 BC), known as Ke, was a native of Mencius Zou in the middle of the Warring States Period (now a native of the southeast of Zou County, Shandong), not far from Qufu, the hometown of Confucius. He is a famous thinker, politician, educator, inheritor of Confucius, and an important representative of Confucianism. He lost his father at an early age, his family was poor, and he was a student of Zisi.

After Mencius completed his studies, he lobbied the princes as a scholar in an attempt to promote his own political ideas, and went to the Liang (Wei) state, the Qi state, the Song state, the Teng state, and the Lu state. He inherited Confucius's idea of "benevolence" and developed it into the idea of "benevolent government", which is called"Ya Sheng", together with Confucius, is called "Confucius and Mencius".

Mencius advocated "benevolence"; advocate that the people are noble and the monarch is light; advocating the theory of sexual goodness;

Mencius advocated against unjust wars;

The starting point of his doctrine is the theory of sexual goodness, proposing "benevolent government" and "royal road", and advocating the rule of virtue.

Mencius had three main contributions.

The first is to develop Confucius's idea of rule by virtue into benevolent government; First, it put forward the Confucian Taoist system; The first is the development of the Simeng school of the study of the nature of the mind (putting forward the theory of goodness). Mencius's benevolence emphasizes the conscious pursuit of morality, cultivating oneself through the pursuit of the inner goodness, and dedicating oneself to one's heart and intellect in order to achieve benevolence. Mencius's benevolent government is to "respect the virtuous and enable the able", emphasizing the moral pursuit of the ruler himself; The first is to advocate the "royal road" and oppose "hegemony" in terms of political relations; First, it is proposed to attach importance to the role of the people, and even proposed that "the people are noble and the king is light".

On the economic side, Mencius advocated "controlling the property of the people".

The people are precious, the monarch is light, and the community is secondary.

People-oriented thinking.

He proposed the Spring and Autumn War, opposed all wars, and demanded that the ruler govern the country with benevolence, lightly punish the meager endowment, and advocate the sustainable use of natural resources (the history books let the back, hehe).

Politically, Mencius advocated the rule of law before the king, the practice of benevolent government, and put forward the people-oriented idea of the people's nobility and the king's lightness.

He advocates "benevolent government and smelting the country" and "the people are noble and the monarch is light".

Mencius's point of view is benevolent government, the people are noble and the monarch is light, advocating that human nature has four good ends, compassion, shame and disgust, right and wrong, resignation, advocating chaos and fierceness, the people and the noble monarch are light, the king carries the Tao, and the way of heaven lies in the hearts of people, and through the lightness of human nature, you can understand the way of heaven.

Mencius was a great thinker and educator during the Warring States Period, and a representative of Confucianism. Together with Confucius, it is called "Confucius and Mencius".
