Chapter 1421

Measuring ruler?

This name is so powerful!

But Qin Lang took it in his hand, but it was just a common wooden ruler. It was called "the ruler" in ancient and modern times. It was a "prop" used by teachers to admonish students. But since the Ministry of Education issued the regulation that no corporal punishment was allowed to be imposed on Students, the things related to the ruler have disappeared.

It's just that it's strange that if educational violence is brought about by the ruler, then why hasn't anyone heard of the story that a teacher beat a student with the ruler in ancient times? But now campus violence, indecent accidents continue, it can be seen that the ruler itself is not guilty, guilty of only a number of mentally unhealthy, low-quality "teachers" just.

As for the cancellation of such props as the ruler, it's a bit of a fuss.

In short, educational violence is just caused by the low morality of teachers. What's to do with the discipline?

You should know that in ancient times, what can be a "teacher" is the origin of a scholar, and a scholar is already a relatively cultural existence, which can only be obtained through the orthodox imperial examination. What can become a "teacher" must be a combination of virtue and ability.

In the new era, Qin Longsheng has never seen such "ancient" things, but as the only props for ancient teachers to teach and educate people, the ruler naturally has its special meaning.

This kind of special meaning is not the satisfaction brought by beating the palm of the pupils' hands, but the meaning of "caution" and "ruler" in the ruler. The so-called "caution" is naturally the admonition and punishment. The ancients once said that "it is impossible for a person not to be a saint or a virtuous person", and the earlier the fault is corrected, the better it is. Therefore, if he makes a mistake in the school, the ruler of the teacher is used to punish the pupils, So that the other party can remember the mistakes and lessons; and "ruler" is the scale and standard. There is no moral and legal concept in life. The basic moral and legal concepts are learned from the day after tomorrow, so we need a scale of life.

It can be seen that the ruler is not only used to punish people, but also to warn students to understand the basic social rules and have their own moral bottom line and scale.

There are so many great principles in the square inch thing, which is the wisdom of Confucianism.

Cai Yan gave Qin Lang this ruler, I don't know how many years it has been passed down, nor how many Confucian sages have experienced. But this ruler can be called "measuring the sky". It can be seen that it is not only used to measure children's right and wrong, but also used to measure heaven and earth.

How high is the sky and how deep is the earth? How should this be measured?

How to measure the sky with a sandalwood ruler?

However, when Qin Lang really came into contact with this ruler, he knew its "power". In this small ruler, there was not only the magnificent righteousness, but also the perception of the disciples of Confucianism on the heart of heaven and the people's heart, and the understanding of the sages of Confucianism on the Universiade of heaven and earth. There were thousands of talents of Confucianism who could hold it This ruler must be of outstanding generation. The wisdom accumulated by these people over thousands of years can indeed measure the sky.

The ancients called "the heaven is round and the place is round", but "not by rules, not by square", so the heaven and the earth originally did not mark the rules and regulations, but some intelligent people understood the heart of the heaven, preached for the heaven, concentrated on the basic morality and law, and found the standards and tools to measure all things in the world. These people are the sages who have truly reached the goal of harmony with heaven.

People who can "preach for heaven" are also people with great merits and virtues. Therefore, people who can write "Saint scriptures" and spread them through the ages are real saints, because heaven and humanity will test the real level of these books. Similarly, those who invented the "measurement" are also saints, because they taught people how to measure the length of time, the length of everything and so on, which are great virtues.

This is Cai Yan's intention to show Qin Lang the ruler.

Qin Lang held the ruler with his hands trembling. The contents were too heavy for him to bear. So he handed the ruler to Cai Yan: "master, I'm not a formal disciple of Confucianism. I met by chance. It's not worthy of your love."

"Ha ha! ~"

Cai Yan laughed," although you are not a disciple of Confucianism, you have the ruler of heaven in your heart. The ancients said it well: the people have a steelyard in their hearts, which is the measure of the king's achievements and officials' virtues. In the same way, we Confucians have a yardstick in mind, which is the yardstick to measure our own merits and virtues. Since you have a yardstick in mind, why can't you accept the truth? "

"I'm worried about the lack of virtue and the humiliation of saints." Qin Landau.

"Today, although he is known as a hundred million disciples of Confucianism, there is no trace of real disciples of Confucianism. I am just a reader of Confucianism guarding saints' classics. For many years, this is the first time for me to see people with lofty integrity enter here. Well, since you have your own ruler, you can't accept the great ruler of Confucianism. "

Cai Yan got up, picked up the ruler and made a heavy hit on Qin Lang's palm. "This ruler, I remind you, is a ruler to keep your mind!"

This is Cai Yan's reminder to Qin Lang to stick to his moral bottom line. Qin Lang is naturally taught modestly.

Later, Cai Yan took Qin Lang to the study.

It's not so much a study as a library, because there are at least thousands of books here, and these books actually have oracle bone inscriptions, bamboo scrolls, silk and silk inscriptions, sheepskin scrolls and so on. This is a museum of history and culture. I don't know where Cai Yan got these things. However, as the "book keeper" and "book reader" of Confucianism, it is not surprising that Cai Yan has these books. After all, this may be the "teaching collection" of Confucianism.

There is no special insurance for the library, just a common big lock, but Qin Lang believes that no one here will steal books, because this place is really different. In the past, under the rule of sages, it was possible to "keep the door open at night and find nothing left". Many people thought that it was the ancients' stupidity, but it was not necessarily the case, but the influence and deterrent power of sages' noble and upright spirit on many people existed. The little thief dare to attack the sage, I'm afraid that he will be shocked into an idiot by the sage's great righteousness.

Of course, the prerequisite must be the sage, the sage and the heaven are in harmony with each other and understand the heart of heaven. Naturally, there will be the blessing of heaven and earth. Naturally, it is impossible to be secretly harmed by the curfew.

As for this library, as soon as Qin Lang enters here, he knows that it's definitely not accessible to the curfew, because it's not an ordinary library. To be exact, the books here are not ordinary books!
