Inside Deaf Culture

CHINESE WISDOM

GUANG ZENG

To my wife, Wu Faqin, which inspires and translation assistance.

CHINESE wisdom is the Chinese translation of the libretto, Zeng Guang, and recited the classic city that has been around for about 300 years. Since it came out, it spread throughout

countries and, thus, countries where there are overseas Chinese. Scientists have been searching for fatherhood, but in vain. If you need a

Author therefore it is eclectic. ZENG GUANG is rooted in and many

impact on Chinese culture. As a mentor eloquent traveling incognito and teaches his folk lyrics that are timeless practical and instructive, which are more acceptable and more influential than words elitist Saints Confucius and Mencius, Zeng GUANG transmit wisdom, philosophy gives life . Many of his words are paradoxical and polysemic, which makes the benevolent see benevolence and the wise see wisdom. Just the ambiguity and mysticism give the book to the ever lasting vitality. Alas, this attraction has given me problems during the translation. Here, I beg you to have the audacity to present my interpretation of this booklet Great.

CHINESE WISDOM

GUANG ZENG

These are wise words from the past

They strongly urge you.

The words were originally rhymed

They help you see and hear more.

This is well reflected by the past,

Yesterday and today are co-eternal.

People are building the treasury of the country,

People of scholarship are his jewels.

All areas of life, work or trade,

When standing by the moral disciplines.

Being filial to parents and loving brothers and sisters

Are the roots of ethics.

Respect your teachers and moral honor

masses of love and you love to benevolence.

The money and property are just curios muddy

Compassion and justice are worthy of gold.

Do everything according to the rules of nature,

Tell taking into account population.

Your plot plan should not offend the Heaven and Earth

Your words and acts must set a good example for the off-springs.

The rich and influential should care for the poor and needy,

The young and healthy is concerned about the old and weak.

Do your best to make your filial duty,

Not only give food to your parents.

The adult ravens will feed the old

The lambs will kneel down to suck the milk of the mother.

Far from parents, you may shed tears,

But they want very much to see you.

Do not waste time to make your parents happy,

Do not wait to offer a sacrifice before their wooden statues.

Treat your parents now with chicken and pork

Is it better to sacrifice an ox before their tombs.

Friends are more than brothers

Who do evil to each other;

The most reliable are brothers

Who are you protecting against tyrants.

Your meat and wine to attract many friends,

But in difficulty, you see a little.

Each time we meet we get older,

We do not have much time to enjoy the fellowship.

A good father-son makes a prosperous family,

Friendliness keeps Close Brothers

Affability avoid quarrels between neighbors,

Harmony husband raises family fortune.

Enjoying the songs among the flowers, oriole like your wife,

You disperse the geese fellowship in the sky.

Never do any harm,

And always do good deeds.

Get to know each other and,

Have a heart and into the feeling of others.

Take back the way you do for others,

cherish others as you do for you.

You can never be mo.
