The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism

Chapter 3049 Self-Reform

Fang Sheng is blind!

A confirmed piece of news flew across the Shengyuan Continent as if it had grown wings.

The people of Qing applauded, and many men also applauded, but women from all over the country burst into tears, thinking that Fang Yun hurt himself for them.

After visiting Wang Jinglong and Chen Qingzhi in succession, Fang Yun returned to Quanyuan. He was drinking tea when he heard the news. If it weren't for the strong control ability of the semi-saint, he would have almost spit out the best Wuling Divine Tea in his mouth.

Every drop of water in the Wuling Divine Tea contains a complete piece of tea leaves, and there is a Wuling sleeping on each complete piece of tea leaves. Each Wuling is a complete divine medicine.

Fang Yun shook his head and continued to drink tea and think.

At this time, Fang Yun did not really rest, because his holy thoughts were quickly recalling everything that happened from the last time he left the Shengyuan Continent and entered the Haiya Ancient Land until today.

Recalling once was not enough, Fang Yun kept thinking.

It is not enough to think over and over again. In the literary world, Fang Yun, the divine mind, also uses divine mind to turn words to record all important things.

Recording alone is not enough. Fang Yun also makes judgments, whether it is right or wrong, good or bad, whether there is a better choice, what he would do if he did it now, etc.

Everything that happened in the past cannot be changed, but through what happened in the past, everything in the present and the future can be changed.

The action has been completed. After Fang Yun made a reflection, he did not stop, but took the third step, summarizing.

The holy mind exerted its full power, and the powerful holy power began to summarize the previous reflection content, extracting various laws and rules, so that Fang Yun's views on many things have changed.

Only by innovating oneself can we innovate the world.

Before the canonization, Fang Yun realized that he did not pay enough attention to his own innovation before, because of his lack of ability, too fast promotion, and insufficient tempering.

However, the ancient times made up for this deficiency.

In the ancient times, Fang Yun learned to innovate himself and iterate himself.

At this moment, Fang Yun has summarized the steps of self-innovation, which can be roughly divided into four steps.

Record behavior, reflect on behavior, summarize rules, test feedback, and then continue to record behavior, forming a reciprocating cycle, so as to continuously innovate oneself, continuously improve oneself, and make oneself stronger and stronger.

These four steps seem very simple.

Fang Yun observed and recalled people he knew in the past according to the standard of self-reform, and made new discoveries.

Almost all readers can complete the first step, while many non-readers cannot even complete the first step. Rather than moving forward, they are passively spinning in place.

Many people often cannot remember everything that happened, and will not take the initiative to record things in the past, so everything is equivalent to not happening.

Among readers, most people cannot complete the second step. It is not that they did not reflect, but that they did not complete the most important foundation before reflection, recognizing themselves.

These people have some common characteristics. Sometimes they are careless, sometimes they just get by. When they encounter failure, they say it is bad luck, mistakes, or external factors. Some will take the initiative to do things, and some even find that they are inadequate or incapable.

However, this alone is not enough to be considered as self-recognition. Self-recognition does not mean that you are inadequate in general, but that you can find that you are inadequate in a specific point, and there will be a trend, which is to try every means to make up for this specific deficiency, rather than just thinking that you are incapable.

Only by trying every means to make up for the deficiency can people consciously reflect.

Only then did Fang Yun understand that Zengzi could say such a profound truth as "I examine myself three times a day" not because Zengzi was wise enough; Confucius could say "There must be a teacher among three people" and "See the virtuous and think about being like them" not because Confucius was wise enough.

Even, it was not that Confucius and Zengzi were humble enough.

It was that the two had the ability to recognize themselves, see through themselves, and have the motivation to change and improve.

Humility without foundation is just escape and self-abandonment.

Humility after recognizing oneself is humility.

The reason why most people cannot recognize themselves is that recognizing themselves is too painful, just like holding a knife and carefully dissecting their skin, texture, blood vessels, and bones. Most people cannot bear this pain, so they choose to escape, so they cannot be truly humble, and it is impossible to complete reflection.

On the basis of reflection, we can discover all the internal laws through the appearance of actions and experience.

However, the laws discovered by anyone cannot be absolutely correct. We must take the last step, based on the summarized laws, to test these laws, to accept feedback from the outside world, continue to act, continue to reflect, continue to summarize, and continue to test...

When this self-reform system begins to circulate, like a windmill that keeps turning, this person will inevitably become stronger and stronger.

Such a person may not have the highest holy way, but he must be closer to the highest holy way than others.

After completing the summary, Fang Yun stopped self-reform and closed his eyes to rest.

After a nap, Fang Yun browsed the discussion list and quickly read the content of the discussion list. Not only was he not angry, but there was a hint of enlightenment in his eyes.

In the discussion list, there were endless articles opposing the equal examination for both sexes. Some people even pointed out that Fang Yun was blind because he had done something wrong and was punished by God.

Fang Yun's holy thoughts entered the discussion list and began to record a large number of comments, and then sorted and analyzed them, and finally found many interesting things.

In the discussion of killing Qing Jun, some people can only see the surface, thinking that Fang Yun is just a villain with a swelled mentality, relying on his status as a semi-saint to do whatever he wants, and are full of disappointment with Fang Yun's behavior.

Some people have a different perspective, thinking that Fang Yun's behavior is inappropriate, but Qing Jun should also die, Fang Yun is just exercising the power of a semi-saint.

Some people don't care about Qing Jun's life or death, they only care about how the people of Qing will live in the future.

Only a few people don't pay attention to Fang Yun's behavior of killing Qing Jun at all, but discuss the deep reasons behind it and explore Fang Yun's intentions.

Everyone has a different understanding of everything.

Some people have a deeper understanding, and some people have a broader understanding.

Some people think they have a deep and broad understanding.

Everyone's understanding is expressed in words and actions.

Only when the windmill of innovation turns, will the understanding deepen or expand.

Fang Yun sighed. If there were no strange book world and no experience in the ancient times, he would not have chosen this path.

Since you have chosen, go on.

Living alone in a room, Fang Yun slowly opened his eyes.

Fang Yun's face showed an unprecedented determination.

As the March 15th Tongsheng Examination was getting closer, the opinions against the co-examination of men and women on the discussion list became more and more intense.

However, another big news broke out on the discussion list.

"We must find out the murderer who slandered the Kong family!"

The readers who saw the title were shocked. That was the Kong family. Even if all the semi-saints alive now were added together, they could not bring down the Kong family. Who dared to target the Kong family?

Everyone clicked in to take a closer look out of curiosity. After reading it, a tsunami of shock was set off in their hearts.
