Our body is a small universe; to regulate emotions and feelings is a way of harmonization (Zicheng Hong Quotes)
You should be forgiving when others make mistakes, but not when the mistakes are in you. You should be patient under duress yourself, but not when it affects others. (Zicheng Hong Quotes)
Fishing is a pleasure of retirement, yet the angler has the power to let the fish live or die (Zicheng Hong Quotes)
Conceit and arrogance are acquired states of mind. Conquer acquired states of mind, and basic sanity can unfold. Passion and willfulness are part of false consciousness; erase false consciousness, and true consciousness will appear. (Zicheng Hong Quotes)
When people are determined, they can overcome fate; when the will is unified, it can mobilize energy. Enlightened people do not even let nature put them in a set mold. (Zicheng Hong Quotes)
When you are but slightly involved in the world, the effect the world has on you is also slight. When you are deeply enmeshed in affairs, you machinations also deepen. So for enlightened people simplicity is better than refinement, and freedom is better than punctiliousness. (Zicheng Hong Quotes)
When the liver is diseased, the eyesight fails; when the kidneys are diseased, the hearing is adversely affected. The disease is not visible, but its effects are. Therefore, enlightened people, wishing to be free from obvious faults, first get rid of hidden faults. (Zicheng Hong Quotes)
At dusk the sunset is beautifully bright; at year’s end the tangerines are even more fragrant. Therefore, at the end of their road, in their later years, enlightened people should be a hundred times more vital in spirit. (Zicheng Hong Quotes)
Soil with a lot of manure in it produces abundant crops; water that is too clear has no fish. Therefore, enlightened people should maintain the capacity to accept impurities and should not be solitary perfectionists. (Zicheng Hong Quotes)
When enlightened people are so poor that they cannot help others, if they speak a word to awaken the confused or to resolve a problem, there is also boundless merit in that. (Zicheng Hong Quotes)
Observe people with cool eyes, listen to their words with cool ears. Confront feelings with cool emotions, reflect on principles with a cool mind. (Zicheng Hong Quotes)
To notice people’s deceptions yet not reveal it in words, to bear people’s insults without showing any change of attitude-there is endless meaning in this, and also endless function. (Zicheng Hong Quotes)
When you meet dishonest people, move them with sincerity. When you meet violent people, affect them with gentility. When you meet warped people, inspire them with justice. Then the whole world enters your forge. (Zicheng Hong Quotes)
Attention is the mind’s feet; if you do not control your attention strictly, it runs into misleading pathways. (Zicheng Hong Quotes)
If the mind is illumined, there is clear blue sky in a dark room. If the thoughts are muddled, there are malevolent ghosts in broad daylight. (Zicheng Hong Quotes)
Human affairs are like a chess game. Only those who do not take it seriously can be called good players. (Zicheng Hong Quotes)
When you meet silent and inscrutable people, don’t tell them what you are thinking. When you meet irritable and self-serving people, be careful what you say. (Zicheng Hong Quotes)
If those who give are conscious of their own generosity and those who receive feel indebted, they are no longer family but rather strangers doing business. (Zicheng Hong Quotes)
Valuing unusual conduct is not as good as being careful about ordinary actions (Zicheng Hong Quotes)
Compromise to please others is not as good as integrity that annoys others. Rather than be praised without being good, it is better to be slandered without being bad. (Zicheng Hong Quotes)
Flowers should be viewed when half open, wine should be drunk only to subtle intoxication; there is great fun in this. If you view flowers in full bloom and drink to drunkenness, it becomes a bad experience. Those who are living to the full should think about this. (Zicheng Hong Quotes)
One of our predecessors said, Throwing away the inexhaustible treasury of your own home, you go with your bowl from door to door, acting like a beggar (Zicheng Hong Quotes)
