Confucian Analects, The Great Learning & The Doctrine of the Mean

Confucian Analects, The Great Learning & The Doctrine of the Mean

Author: Confucius
Genres: Old Book, Philosophical
Tags: #104, #104 Topical Discussion, #123, #123 Topical Discussion

One of the classic four books of ancient Confucianism, The Great Learning consists of a short initial commentary attributed to Confucius himself, followed by a lengthier tract written by one of his disciples named Zengzi.

The text emphasises achieving balance in every day life and in thoughts. For the man who aspires to great wisdom, much time must be set aside for rest and contemplation. Life's priorities must be organised according to their importance, and harmony must be rigorously cultivated in everyday associations and relationships. In learning, one must not consider one kind superior to the exclusion of others, but must instead strive for balance.
