The sixth part is excerpted from Disciples' Rules of Li Yuxiu in Qing Dynasty Pan Aizhong.
It means: to preach the evil deeds of others is to do evil; Too much criticism of others will bring disaster to yourself. Persuade to be good, have both ability and political integrity; You are wrong, you can't convince each other, and both of them owe morality.
The original text is:
All people must love, the sky is the same, and so is the earth.
Those who walk high, have high fame, are valued by people, and are not tall.
Talented people are arrogant and convincing, not boastful.
Don't be selfish if you have the ability, and don't underestimate people's ability.
Don't flatter the rich, don't be arrogant and poor, don't be tired of the old and don't like the new.
People are not idle, don't fan the flames, people are uneasy and don't talk.
Everyone has shortcomings, so don't expose them. Everyone has private affairs, so don't talk about it.
A good man is a good man. The more people know, the more they think.
To preach that people's evil is evil, and if they are seriously ill, it is a disaster.
Good advice, moral construction, violation of regulations, both lose.
You know, more, less.
If you want to add people, ask yourself first. If you don't, you will be quick.
Gratitude wants to repay, resentment wants to forget, resentment is short-lived, and gratitude is long-lasting.
Being a servant is expensive, though expensive, kind and generous.
Persuade potential people, but don't use your heart. Persuade people with reason, and they are speechless.
Translation:
All human beings must love each other; Because we share a sky and live on the earth.
A man of noble character has a noble reputation; What people really respect is virtue, not those who seem to have high power and status.
Those who have both ability and political integrity have high natural prestige; What people really believe in is their own ability and political integrity, not what big officials, big shots and big financial businessmen talk about.
You have the ability, don't be selfish and help others; Others have the ability, don't be jealous, and learn to appreciate learning.
Don't flatter the rich and don't be arrogant in front of the poor; Don't like the new and hate the old.
Others are busy and don't bother; Don't bother others with small talk when they are in a bad mood.
Remember not to expose other people's shortcomings; Remember not to publicize other people's privacy.
Praising the good deeds of others is doing good deeds; When others hear your praise, they will encourage you to do more good deeds.
To preach the evil deeds of others is to do evil; Too much criticism of others will bring disaster to yourself.
Persuade to be good, have both ability and political integrity; You are wrong, you can't convince each other, and both of them owe morality.
It is important to acquire or give property. Take it if you take it, and give it if you give it. Pay more, get less.
Ask yourself if you want to do what you ask others to do. Don't ask for what you don't want to do at once, and don't force others to do it.
If you want to repay the kindness of others, you must forget your resentment towards others; You should report your grievances in the short term and repay them in the long term.
Be kind to handmaids and servants and set an example; Although good conduct is important, kindness and generosity are more valuable.
Forcing others to obey, the other party will inevitably be dissatisfied with it; Convince people by reasoning, and others will be convinced.
