The first chapter of the Tao Te Ching contains philosophical ideas similar to the Analects

Tao Te Ching is a philosophy that talks about the universe and the truth of life; The Analects belong to the category of ethics, which focuses on the moral cultivation of life, and there is not much comparison between the two. In the feudal era, the Analects only played the role of the equivalent of the national constitution. Therefore, Lao Tzu despised Confucius's benevolence, righteousness, propriety, and wisdom.

On this point, Chapter 38 of the Tao Te Ching says very clearly: "Loss of morality leads to virtue, loss of virtue leads to benevolence, loss of benevolence leads to righteousness, loss of righteousness leads to courtesy." The husband is the one who is faithful, and the first of chaos.

In Lao Tzu's view, benevolence, righteousness, propriety, and wisdom are a kind of man-made artificiality, which is "promising", which does not conform to the universal truth of "doing nothing but doing nothing" in nature.

Long frustration, indulgence and coupling. Confucius passed by, so that Zilu was inquisitive. Long frustration said:

Who is the husband who holds the public opinion (4)? Zilu said: "For Kongqiu."

He said: "Is it Lu Kongqiu?" "Said:

Yes also. He said, "It's Zhijin."

Asked Yu Ji drowning. He said, "Who is the son!"

He said: "For the middle reason." "Said:

Is it the Disciples of Rucomchu with? He said, "Yes."

He said: "Those who talk (5) are all over the world, and (6) who is easy to change with (7)?" And instead of being from a man of the world (8), how about from a man of the world (9)?

(10) and not the road to tell. The Master Furan (11) said, "Birds and beasts shall not be in the same flock (12), but who shall be with the disciples of the Uphiz (13)?"

There is a way in the world, and the hill is not easy to do. ”

Zi said: "If you are above the middle, you can speak also; Below the middle people, you can't speak also. ”

The same is true of the Dao. The Tao is very good, and it is very good. Those who have attained the Tao do not need to be taught.

I think the Analects are greater, because the Analects are mainly some of the benevolence and morality that Confucius did, and they are very cautionary for the present.

I think the Tao Te Ching is greater, because it is now the 21st century, but the truth and knowledge in the Tao Te Ching are still very useful to our current people, and they also constrain our morality. The impact on people is a little bit greater.

I think the Analects are even greater, because the Analects are our enlightenment, and they also open the history of our literature.

"Tao Te Ching" is a philosophical work made by Lao Tzu (i.e. Li Er) in the Spring and Autumn Period, its content covers philosophy, ethics, political science, military science and many other disciplines, and is respected by later generations as a treasure book for governing the country, Qi family, self-cultivation and learning.

Mr. Lu Xun once said: If you don't read the Tao Te Ching, you don't understand the true meaning of life.

Today I would like to share with you the seven philosophies of life in the Tao Te Ching, which contain the true meaning of life!

1. Those who know do not speak, and those who speak do not know.

This sentence comes from the "Tao Te Ching, Chapter 56", which means that anyone who knows the changes in heaven and earth also knows that they cannot describe their essence, so they do not say it.

Those who speak do not know can describe the truth between heaven and earth, but they cannot know the nature of the changes in heaven and earth.

Only by abandoning all perceptions and stopping the pursuit of outward can we seek peace and clarity in our hearts, so we must be even, do not value anyone, do not despise anyone, so that we can be respected by the people of the world.

Second, the good is like water, the water is good for all things without fighting, and it is evil for everyone, so it is more than the Tao.

This sentence comes from the "Tao Te Ching, Chapter 8", which means that people's virtues are like water.

Water is the source of all things, but it nourishes all things and is indisputable in the world, always maintaining a normal state of mind, and at the same time, water is in a low place that everyone likes, so it is close to the Tao.

The way to success is the same as water, to the soft to the rigid are in a thought, maybe some people are facing difficulties at the moment, but there is more than one road of life, with the capital of the "strong" and maintain the posture of the "weak", this is actually a kind of life wisdom.

The Tao Te Ching covers a lot of fields, it contains a lot of life inspiration and philosophy, and there is a wealth of knowledge in governing the country, self-cultivation, health preservation, and military discipline; I think the biggest inspiration from this book is that people must be kind, because goodness is like water, and only when people can maintain their good nature can they have a better future.

There is also some content about the military, about politics, about economics, this book is a very good book, it is a book worth reading.

The Tao Te Ching was written by Lao Tzu and is a classic doctrine of Taoism. The Analects are Confucian quotations compiled by Confucius' students after Confucius's death, and are Confucian classics.

Tao Te Ching is a work of Lao Tzu and one of the representative works of Taoism.

The Analects is a collection of Confucius's sayings and is one of the representative works of Confucianism.

The two are different in style and express different ideas.

Chapter 10, Chapter 24, Chapter 33, Chapter 64.

Tao Te Ching is a work of the ancient Chinese pre-Qin princes before their separation, and it is an important part of Taoist philosophical thought. The Tao Te Ching is divided into two parts, the original text of the first part of the "Book of Virtues", the next part of the "Book of Virtues", not divided into chapters, and later changed to "The Book of Virtues" 37 chapters in front, after the 38th chapter is the "Book of Virtues", and is divided into 81 chapters.

If you say which is the foundation, the I Ching is the foundation of the group classics and the foundation of Chinese Wenhua. The I Ching has a heavenly way, an earthly way, and a humane way. What is the Tao, one yin and one yang is the way.

Lao Tzu's Tao Te Ching is only a part of Yi Li, and it is just a way to retreat.

The Analects focus on the philosophy of living in the world and the way of politics, but it has little insight into astronomy and geography.

However, although the I Ching is basic, it is also the most profound. It may not be easy to understand it, but it is not difficult for people with high enough understanding, and they can understand the world.

Speaking of which, I still think the Tao Te Ching is easier to get started. I also read this first. Although I didn't understand it very well at first, many of the words in it were also familiar before, such as, great wisdom is like foolishness, the avenue is invisible, goodness is like water, success and retirement, and blessings and misfortunes rely on each other, etc., which are also more cordial.

Then look at the Book of Changes, I Ching first take a cursory look, and then focus on the study of the elephant biography, the upper and lower dictions, the preface hexagram biography, etc. It is estimated that it will take more than a year for the I Ching Society.

If the above two are almost done, the Analects are actually very easy.

If you feel the study, let's start with the Analects, then the Tao Te Ching, and then the I Ching. The Analects can be understood, the Tao Te Ching can also understand two sentences, and the I Ching also knows two words! But as long as the landlord studies one thoroughly, it's very good!

Well, I can only tell you that the I Ching is the mother of the Tao Te Ching and the Analects, that is, the ideas of these two classics are part of the ideas of the I Ching! It is not easy to understand the I Ching, it is necessary to extract insights from the two sages Confucius and Lao Tzu!

So what about the suggestion, if you are interested in all three, you can string them together and learn together, but you must work hard!

If you are a man, you should learn Confucius first, it's good to understand some of the Book of Changes, don't look at Lao Tzu first, the threshold is very high!

There is no relationship between the three given by the landlord.

There is no question of "which is the foundation".
