母意、母必、母固、母我
Confucius
おはようございます☀
本日は5時10分起床、
ブログ投稿です✨️
本気で考えると知恵がでる、
武田信玄ですね
その知恵とはどうやら、
内側からも外側からも
来るようです
今回の場合は、
本から得た論語の一文です
母意、母必、母固、母我
当て推量せず
無理強いせず
固執せず
我を通さず
指令型の私にとっては、
心に刺さる刺さる（笑）
この一文が、
南州翁遺訓の敬天愛人と
同じ項にあるのが興味深い
敬天愛人へ至る道として、
母意、母必、母固、母我
の実践は必要なのかもしれません
人を動かす、
にも通ずる部分があります
やはり原則は普遍であり不変
原則に沿って生きること、
まだまだ修行ですね
The Enemy of the Best is, good
この言葉に本気で取り組む時が来ました
本日も最高に創造的で、
ワクワクする一日にしましょう！
Woke up at 5:10 AM today and just finished my blog post! ✨
"Think with ultimate seriousness, and wisdom will emerge."
These are the words of Shingen Takeda.
It seems that this wisdom comes from both the inside and the outside.
In this case, it came from a sentence in The Analects of Confucius that I found in a book:
"No guessing, no insisting, no flexibility-lacking stubbornness, and no self-centeredness." (Mui, Muhitsu, Mugo, Muga)
Do not conjecture.
Do not force your way.
Do not be obstinate.
Do not be self-centered.
For someone like me with a "commanding" leadership style, these words pierce straight through my heart (haha).
It is fascinating to find this passage in the exact same section as "Keiten Aijin" (Revere Heaven, Love People) from the Nanshu O Ikun (The Teachings of Saigo Takamori).
Practicing "no guessing, no insisting, no stubbornness, and no self-centeredness" might just be the very path required to reach the state of "Revere Heaven, Love People."
This also resonates deeply with the principles of How to Win Friends and Influence People.
After all, principles are both universal and unchanging.
Living in alignment with these principles—I am still very much on a journey of training.
"The enemy of the best is good."
The time has come for me to confront these words with ultimate seriousness.
Let’s make today another highly creative and exciting day!
