Augmented the interpretation of sages (298)

It's easy to get started, but difficult to tell people.

Put your fingers in it and don't tell anyone about your dirty clothes.

A prodigal son gives birth to a father, and a dutiful son gives birth to a sage.

This means:

It is easier to catch tigers in the mountains than to ask for help.

Bend your fingers into your palm and don't spread the scandal at home to the outside.

Families with prodigal sons are mostly because their ancestors did not talk about virtue, and families with dutiful sons are all because their ancestors have wisdom.

Why do you say that?

The first sentence may be a rewrite of "it is easy to go into the mountains and plunder the tiger, but it is difficult to accuse people." The thirty-seventh volume of "Jing Shi Zhi": "It is easy for big officials to catch tigers in the mountains, but it is difficult to sue people." Sue: Please. It is more difficult to ask for help than to catch a tiger on the mountain. Why? Because the big tiger can catch the tiger as long as it is stronger and more agile than the tiger. But seeking to group with others depends on the mood and desire of others. It's completely out of your control. I have power but nowhere to use it! If you ask for help, it's robbery. So it is much more difficult to ask for help from others than to go up the mountain to shoot tigers.

The function of the hand is to grasp things, so the finger bends in the direction of the palm and firmly grasps the object. It must hurt to turn your fingers out, and you can't catch anything. Is the hand that can't catch things still the hand? So fingers can't be left out unless they are caught by uniforms or disabled.

What's the use of telling outsiders when family members have done disgraceful things? I must correct it at home. People outside the home can't help, as the saying goes, "an honest official can't break housework." This is a fact. Of course, if your dirty laundry has risen to domestic violence and criminal activities, you should call the police. This is not to wash your dirty clothes abroad. A dirty laundry refers to the wrong behavior of a minor family member. It can be handled within the family and there is no need to spread it to members outside the family. It is not conducive to harmony and stability within the family.

A prodigal son refers to a wandering child who has nothing to do and makes trouble everywhere. This kind of child is either right or wrong, trusting others, and others are derailed and living outside. Either you are lazy, don't want to take responsibility, and travel under the pretext. In fact, you are ignorant, idle and wasting your time. Of course, this kind of child is not born like this. It must be that no one has been in charge since childhood, or that there are elders in the family who are so incompetent and immoral and wandering around, which makes the children suffer bad influences. Follow the trend. Otherwise, there will be no prodigal son coming back.

A dutiful son refers to a child who respects his parents and loves his family. As soon as the child was born, he was taken care of by his parents, his clothes were stretched and his mouth was full of food. Take it for granted before being sensible and accept it frankly. Sometimes parents will resent you for not taking good care of them. Therefore, at this time, it is necessary for parents and elders to teach and punish, so that children can establish filial piety of thanking their parents and caring for their families. This kind of filial piety needs the words and deeds of elders, such as parents' filial piety to grandparents, which will set an example for children. Only in this way can children learn from others. Therefore, there are filial sons in the family, and at least three generations of filial sons can teach their children filial piety. This is the family style. It is the inheritance of ancestral wisdom and filial piety. Therefore, "the dutiful son comes from the predecessors."

Encourage with everyone, thank you.
