After the talks in the thatched cottage, Juzi locked himself up for another ten days, and then called a meeting of all the Mohists.
During this period, Mohists listened to a lot of Taoist teachings, and the idea of ????not pulling out one cent gained widespread recognition. As victims of the chaos in the world, Mohists may become one of the 10 cents at any time, so they must love themselves and value themselves. Only in this way can we protect ourselves.
"If you don't respect yourself, if you pluck a hair today, you will kill one person tomorrow, ten people the day after tomorrow
In the Taoist view, the world is rotten to the core, and there will be no day when the war will stop. Therefore, this slippery slope theory is established. If the people of the world do not accept a dime, then sooner or later everyone will become a victim of the war. Therefore, Taoists believe that if we want to stop the landslide and stop everything, we must make sure that everyone has nothing to lose.
Mohists who were born in troubled times have experienced it personally, and have accepted the idea of ????not pulling out a penny, and feel that it is much simpler to not pull out a penny than to love both sides.
In practice, this is indeed the case. To spare a dime is to cherish yourself, which is easier to achieve than "shangtong". Shang Tong had to obey the orders of the leader and at the same time be loved by both the king and the officials. This kind of thing was impossible even if he thought about it. Although the ideal of universal love is good, it is too difficult to realize.
During this period, in response to the Mohist universal love, Taoism gave another saying, "The sheep will die on the wrong road" in response to the Mohist universal love. Because the previous giants used the story of "the old farmer and the cow" to attack the view of "not taking away a cent from the country", which hit the sore point of Taoism, so courtesy reciprocated, Taoism also came up with a fable about tit-for-tat.
"The lost sheep on the wrong road means that a family has lost its sheep, and the whole family goes out to find it." The Taoist priest told them that there were too many wrong roads and they should not waste time looking for them, but they refused to listen. They mobilized the whole family and separated into one family when they encountered a wrong road. After searching for a day and a night, everyone returned empty-handed. They had no choice but to say to the Taoist priest before, "There are indeed wrong roads." Too many, should have listened to you sooner'.
"Jian Ai is the lost sheep, and the Mohist is the family member who is looking for the sheep. The world is full of wrong roads. There are so many wrong roads in the world. Even if the Mohist is exhausted, he cannot search all the wrong roads and find the goat named Jian Ai."
Taoist scholars just tell Mohists that your universal love and non-aggression is a "lost sheep by the wrong road", which is impossible to find.
The Mohist became even more disheartened after hearing this, and felt more and more that the feasibility of not giving up anything was better than universal love and non-attack.
At this time, the giant gathered all the Mohists together, and the number of people was much smaller. Even two-thirds of the Mohists who remained were panic-stricken and focused on working rather than accepting ideas.
Some people even think that today¡¯s meeting of the giants is to disband the Mohist family. Only a few core Mohists know that the giants have cheered up, and the Mohist family can definitely get out of the trough.
Yunyao and Simei stood behind the crowd. Simei knew that Yunyao had talked to Juzi, so today Juzi would definitely issue a new idea. They were very curious about how Yunyao planned to deal with Yinmaobugui.
The giant came out of the thatched cottage in good spirits. He had just eaten millet, so he said with great energy: "A lot of things happened after I came to Song Dynasty. Many people left Mohism and accepted Taoism. , I'm not angry. Since you all stay here, I am also very happy to continue to lead you to practice universal love without aggression. I know that in recent days, Taoists have told the story of 'the sheep died on the wrong road', so today I will also tell the story of the blind man touching the elephant. s story."
Now is the Spring and Autumn Period, unlike two thousand years later, everything can be referenced from history. In this era, there are very few historical texts and not many historical events to refer to, so scholars regardless of genre need to be good at telling stories.
The best storytellers must be Zhuangzi and Han Feizi. They are simply masters of idioms.
Mohism cannot completely overturn Taoism¡¯s tenacity, but it can deconstruct it. Didn't the Taoists say that universal love is a "lost sheep on the wrong road"? Then the big guys said that not pulling out a dime is a "blind man touching an elephant". They also casually told the story of fifty steps and a hundred steps, just to tell everyone that if Mohism and Taoism are talking fast, it is just a matter of words. "Laughing at fifty steps, a hundred steps", because whether it is universal love or not plucking away a dime, it is a blind man trying to grasp the elephant. He is just peeking into the corner of the chaos in the world, and neither party knows the true face of the elephant.
"What you said makes no sense. Why do you say that Taoists are blind men trying to grasp an elephant?" After the master told the story, when the Taoists nodded their heads, there was a discordant voice.
He was a Taoist priest. It turned out that a Taoist priest had sneaked in among the Mohists. He raised objections and did not think that the Taoists were blind men trying to grasp the elephant.
"The truth? It is the truth that the world is in chaos. If nothing can really bring peace to the world, then why is the world still in such chaos? So Taoism is also about blind people trying to grasp the elephant. We haven't seen the whole picture yet." The giant said calmly: "It doesn't matter if you can't see the whole picture. , it doesn¡¯t matter if everyone thinks universal love is too far away, in fact I think so too, so I¡¯m going toIn the ?? stage, we first realize friendship with the world, and finally achieve universal love. "
This is the way you think of it. Universal love is the ultimate goal, and Pengtianxia is the primary stage of universal love.
"To achieve the goal of making friends all over the world, we must borrow the unique techniques of Mohism to make friends all over the world. My Taoist friend, I am very happy that you can come here to listen to Mohism. I also hope that Confucian scholars will also come to listen. , Doctors come to listen, kings come to listen, farmers come to listen, tourists come to listen Everyone comes to listen, everyone comes to become friends, come to listen to Mohist's words, come to learn Mohist's skills." Mohist masters the core technology, so even if he does not accept Mohist I advocate that you can also learn Mohist skills.
The Taoist priest was stunned. He did not expect that the Mohists not only found a way to deal with Taoism, but also changed their unrealistic ideas and proposed the idea of ????penetrating the world.
This Pengtianxia sounds much more down-to-earth and easier to accept than the universal love but non-aggression. However, the Taoist priest would not admit defeat. He smiled and said: "It's funny. I heard that Confucius was trapped between Chen and Cai. When he asked his disciples why his ideas were not accepted, Zigong said that it was because the Confucian ideas were too great and were not tolerated by the world. , so I hope that Confucius will lower his level, but Confucius flatly refuses. Mo Zhai, you have been thinking hard for many days, but you are only at the level of Zigong, not as good as Confucius."
The giant had long known that the other party would say this, so he laughed and told the story again: "A strong man has a very big appetite and eats three bowls of rice in one meal. That day, a little man passed by the strong man's house and saw Hercules had such a big appetite, and she was worried that Hercules would eat up his poor family, so he told Hercules: Since you are full after eating three bowls of rice, why not just eat the third bowl of rice? This way, you can save money on the previous meal when you are full. Two bowls of rice, wouldn¡¯t it be a good deal?¡±
As soon as this story came out, everyone at the scene couldn't help laughing, and the open space in front of the thatched cottage was filled with a cheerful atmosphere. They all thought the little man's suggestion was too funny. Eat three bowls of rice to make you full, but not the third bowl of rice. Doesn't eating only the third bowl of rice mean you only eat one bowl of rice? It would be strange to be full.
"Everyone laughed, even this Taoist friend laughed. It means that everyone understands that Jianai is three bowls of rice, and Pengtianxia is the first two bowls of rice. Let's eat the first two bowls of rice first, and then There¡¯s nothing wrong with eating the last bowl of rice.¡±
"It's so exciting. Mohists feel proud and proud. Today, the giants are full of witty words and stories frequently. Moreover, Mohists have adjusted their strategic direction and their opinions have become more down-to-earth. It is completely promising for the future.
The Taoist priest ran back to report the new trends of the Mohist family. The Mohist family had been reborn and reborn, and its combat effectiveness had become stronger.
