I forgot to be quiet and nothing -Zhuangzi -Zhuangzi

Zhuangzi (about 369 BC 286 BC), named Zhou, was born in the Warring States Period (now Mengcheng County, Anhui). village".

Zhuangzi's remarks and thoughts are retained in the book "Zhuangzi". He inherited and developed Lao Tzu's "Tao" thought, thinking that Tao is the origin of all things in the world, and the Tao is absolute, creative, permanent, universal. The highest level of life in unspeakable life. In order to reach this realistic situation, Zhuangzi believes that only by transcending the real world with a general spirit can you get the infinite freedom and tranquility of the soul. On such thoughts, Zhuangzi has a unique understanding of integrity and corruption. First of all, Zhuangzi believes that the reason why people are corrupt is basically because of the spirit of the spirit and the world's desires. The so -called "integrity is not forced to be forced, and the degree of anti -prison" means that the essence of integrity and greed is not affected by the external environment, but should be refused to look at themselves and find the cause from themselves. When a person's state of mind is high, indifferent to fame and fortune, the secular things are not enough to affect the slightest, keeping nature and being happy, and corruption will not be able to talk about it. Therefore, from the root cause of corruption, to be clear and honest, first of all, it is to improve its own cultivation and moral level.

The Southern Song Dynasty Li Liang Qiushui (local) Tianjin Museum collected and enhanced cultivation and morality. The key lies in "not stagnant in things", "Xinzhai" and "sitting forgotten" are the way to achieve. "Not stagnant" is not hindered by objective foreign objects, and corruption is the result of being disturbed by human beings and detaining interests. When we use "Xinzhai" to eliminate perseverance, prejudice, desire, and vulgar feelings for the soul, and continue to achieve "to the virtual" and "quiet", we get a empty and clear heart, the so -called " Fu Dao, covering all things, is big! The gentleman cannot be unwilling. "After that, he forgot all inside and outside, without something," if you are in the mountains, the golden gold in the mountains, the hidden pearls in the Yuan, it is not good for the money, and it is not good for the money. Not close to wealth; not happy, not sorrowful; not glorious, not ugly; the benefits of not being eager to be selfish, do not use the king of the world as their own place ", and will finally usher in the" sitting and forget " Mental realm.

Zhuangzi has the same vein with Lao Tzu in a clean discussion, emphasizing the improvement of his spiritual realm and moral cultivation to enhance the role of prevention of corruption. Quiet and inactive, forget selflessness, natural selflessness, no greed, innocence and integrity, and is not subject to worldly temptation. He regards integrity as the standard of governing the country, family and life, and enriches the connotation of cleanliness.
