hi I'm Andy

Today we'll learn Laozi's thinking together

the good virtue is not showing off his virtue

that is considered being with virtue

the bad virtue

is showing off his virtue

that is considered being without virtue

the good virtue do not need to prove his virtue

so

he seemed to do nothing

the bad virtues always try to prove his virtue

so he is busy doing everything

the behavior of benovalence is come out from heart

but not in the name of virtue

the behavior of morality is made in the name of virtue

if the behavior of an etiquette is not

response by other people

they would roll up the sleeves

and the force you carried it out

so when people lost the Dao

they would hold the virtue

when they lost the virtue

they would hold the benovance

when lost benevolence

they would hold morality

after lost morality

they would hold the etiquette

the etiquette is a lack of loyalty and belief

that is the cause of chaos

those things we know previously

is the superficial vanity of Dao

that is the beginning of the foolishness

so the true gentleman should hold the sincerity

but not the surface

hold honesty but not vanity

so we should get rid of a superficial vanity

and hold sincere honesty

okay

good virtue don't show off is virtue

do you think a real wealthy man

should show off his wealth

Bill Gates or Elon Musk

they need to show off his wealth

his money to people

to prove he is wealthy

it's not necessary

so the poor people

they would show off they have money

so the real one don't need to prove

Donald Trump said make America great again

that means America is not great right now

in China we used to say that

we want to build a harmonious society

that means the society now is not harmonious

so the Dao belongs to heaven

but benevolence

morality etiquette those belong to people human being

why the world the society is deteriorating

because we lost the Dao, the Great Dao

it reminds me in the Bible

when Adam and Eva sinned

they were driven out from the Garden of Eden

human beings sinned

they lost the Dao

Confucius is always emphasized on rite

etiquette and music

but why Laozi said it (rite) is the cause of chaos

he said

the etiquette, the ceremony, the rite

if they will not respond and people will

roll up sleeves and force you carried it out

then I will tell you a real story

in 1793

the King of England sent George Macartney as envoy

to celebrate the Emperor Qianlong's

birthday in china

so he traveled all the way

and brought a lot of precious gifts

those gifts were the latest

technology of the Industrial Revolution

but they got an issue

before the emperor

received George Mckinney

because the Emperor of China is the Son of Heaven

so everybody should kneeled down and kowtow to the Emperor

but in the West

they only kneel down with one knee

we don't know the truth if Macartney really

kneeled down kowtow to the Emperor

or he used the western courtesy

but one thing is for sure

both the Emperor of China

and George Macartney were not happy

so when the etiquette was not respond

other people almost force him

to carry out the kowtow in China

that is what exactly Laozi said

in 2,500 years ago in China

so since that time

China was declining

in 1860

the Opium War broke out

that was the beginning of chaos

that's the reason why

we should give up the superficial vanity and hold the

sincere honesty

okay see you next time bye bye
