Zhuangzi believes that it is humane for men and women to combine with each other to have children and offspring, and for children to support and take care of their parents and elders when they grow up.
But there are people who break this pattern and do not observe humanity.
They are concerned only with the physical pleasure of men and women, and do not raise their children at all.
On the contrary, they thought that the arrival of their children and offspring was a burden.
They don't know where they come from, they don't support their parents, they don't take care of their elders, they also think that their parents and elders are a burden, they only care about themselves.
When they are parents, they feel that their children are a burden.
And when they were children, they thought that it was right for their parents and elders to raise their children.
Zhuangzi Taoists believe that this kind of person breaks humanity, is different, and is damned.
Even though they are our parents, elders, or our children's descendants.
Or they are our brothers and sisters, or they are the people close to us.
We can't do anything to kill them, but we can choose to ignore them.
The voices of chickens and dogs are heard by each other, and the old and dead do not get along.
Zhuangzi advises everyone not to be bound by the Confucian set of benevolence and righteousness, not to be bound by the laws of the king at that time, and not to be bound by the teachings of others.
In the face of survival, how to survive is the law.
Don't affect the survival of others, don't let others affect your survival, that is the law When some people do not obey humanity, when too many people do not obey humanity, society will be chaotic, and human society will return to living like a beast.
At this time, the religion of benevolence, righteousness and etiquette did not work.
Therefore, we have to abandon all the laws and morals that bind and affect our existence.
We will return to the beastly life, where the strong survive, the wise survive, and the lucky survive.
The weak and mentally retarded will become cannon fodder in history and become victims in the process of civilization.
"We Taoists should also learn from Confucius," Zhuangzi continued, "We should learn from Confucius's perseverance, not from the set of Confucian theories he taught."
Zhuangzi respected the personality of Confucius and his spirit of perseverance, but did not promote the Confucian doctrine When explaining Taoist doctrines, it is inevitable to mention other schools of doctrine.
Mention the Mohists, Confucianists, Legalists, and Bingjia, and other hundred schools, and use them for comparison.
"We have to learn from Confucius and his disciples, their persistence, not their Confucian theories.
The theory of Confucianism is only suitable for the use of state power to forcibly promote and popularize it to the general public in the prosperous times, but not for the current troubled times, where survival is the law of the people.
How to keep yourself alive is the law.
In this troubled world, the pattern is broken, everyone does not obey the law and etiquette, if we still teach others to obey, it is cheating others and deceiving others, that is, let others accept the shackles of laws and etiquette.
That is to make it impossible for others to live freely and flexibly.
Whether it is in troubled times or in peaceful and prosperous times, there will always be a dark side to society.
It's just that in the peaceful and prosperous periods, the dark side of society is relatively less, and in the troubled times, the dark side is relatively more.
It is an indisputable fact that society will always have a dark side Therefore, whether it is in troubled times or in peaceful and prosperous times, we must take survival as the law.
It is the law not to affect the survival of others and not to be affected by others.
Only in this way can it be humane and the way of human existence."
Zhuangzi respected the personality of Confucius and admired Confucius's spirit of sticking to his beliefs, but he did not respect the Confucian set of doctrines, believing that Confucianism could only be used in prosperous times and used to popularize the general public.
In the period of peace and prosperity, it is feasible to use state power as a means to popularize and promote.
In troubled times, promoting Confucianism, or using state power as a means to popularize and promote, is harming people.
Zhuangzi believes that in troubled times, survival is that the law does not affect the survival of others, and does not affect your survival by others, that is the law In short, Zhuangzi still respects the personality of Confucius.
In particular, the spirit of Confucius's firm belief is highly respected.
I believe that Taoists should also be like Confucius, stick to their beliefs, and do not affect the survival of others, nor be affected by others.
Also, Zhuangzi did not have a completely negative attitude towards Confucianism.
He believed that Confucianism could be popularized and used in the heyday.
Because human beings do need a concrete code of conduct.
It is believed that Confucianism is the study of morality, not the study of governing the world, let alone the study of survival.
It is worthy of praise to believe that Legalism uses the rule of law to rule the country.
He believes that we should "rule the country by law, govern morality by Confucianism, and govern the heart by Taoism." ” It is believed that society is made up of individual people, and that in order to govern society well, it is necessary to govern individual people first.
How to govern an individualZhuangzi believes that whether a person is a good person or a bad person cannot be regulated by explicit regulations.

It's not that it's okay to use this standard or that standard to measure it.
And it mainly depends on a person's heart.
Clear regulations, moral norms, this standard and that standard, others can pretend, can cater to, and circumvent.
Others can follow on the surface, but not at all inwardly.
So this measure, that measure, is useless.
Only when we are in contact with this person for a long time do we know what he is.
So whether you are in the power of the state or in the name of the individual, what you ask others to do will not work, and you are binding others.
Only if others voluntarily obey it will be effective.
Therefore, the laws of the state, the number of rites, and so on, are all shackles that bind honest people.
It doesn't work at all for bad people, for people with good brains.
For bad people and people with good brains, it is useless for you to have laws and morals, and they will follow them if it is beneficial to them; If it is not good for them, they will definitely find a way to avoid it.
Zhuangzi believes that Confucius's personality charm is not because of his knowledge, not because he understands Zhou etiquette and promotes Zhou etiquette.
It was not that he promoted his theory of "benevolence and righteousness", nor that he organized the six arts, nor that he taught many disciples.
It's his perseverance As a master of all ages, he has always followed his set of Confucian theories of "benevolence and righteousness", his principles of life Only by correcting oneself can one be qualified to speak and teach others, so Zhuangzi greatly appreciated Confucius's personality.
However, Zhuangzi felt that it was too inflexible.
Survival is the last word, how can you make yourself survive better, not lose your life, complete this life mission, and live is the last word.
Only when we are alive can we feel everything
