What is great goodness and what is small goodness?

There is kindness in everyone's heart When others are in danger, they are reluctant and want to help. However, if your kindness is only to calm the unbearable feelings in your heart, but not to really improve the situation of others, it is "small kindness." Don't do this kind of kindness well, otherwise it will easily lead to new dangers for the other party.

True kindness must be accompanied by wisdom. People should not only understand the world and people's hearts, but also understand the laws of nature and heaven. Only in this way can his good deeds conform to heaven and help others out of trouble without violating nature. Such kindness is true kindness.

Story:

There is a story in Fan Siji, which tells that the prime minister resigned and returned to his hometown. At that time, people all over the country respected his integrity and honesty, and regarded him as Taishan Beidou. A villager was drunk outside and swore at Lu Wengong. Someone reported the villager, but Lv Gong didn't pursue it.

But a year later, the man made a bigger mistake, was put in prison and was sentenced to death. Lv Gong felt guilty. At that time, I just thought I should be tolerant, but I didn't expect to indulge him and make his temper worse and worse.

If we had an argument with him, handed him over to the government and gave him a little punishment, we might not have ended up like this. A moment of kindness ruined this man's life.
