Chapter 34<\/span><\/p>\n

DOCTRINES OF THE BASE.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

1. What were the old foundations?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

2. To dwell in families (communities), with a father to each and every one.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

3. And what of the ancient states?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

4. The fathers had families, with chief fathers over them.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

5. What of the empire?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

6. The chief fathers elected one over them, and he was called, the Sun Father. Because, as
\nthe sun is the glory and beauty of the phalanx, ruling over the planets, so was the emperor
\nthe sun of mortals.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

7. What was the scope of responsibility?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

8. As a father is responsible for the behavior of his own child, so was the rab’bah
\nresponsible for the behavior of his family; so was the chief rab’bah responsible for the
\nbehavior of his family of rab’bahs; so was the emperor responsible for the behavior of his
\nempire.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

9. What was the responsibility of a child to its natural father? of a man to the rab’bah? of
\nthe rab’bahs to the chief rab’bahs? of all the people to the emperor?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

10. The child shall be taught to love, to revere and to obey its own father (and its mother,
\nwho is its vice-father); the man to love and revere the rab’bah; the rab’bahs to love and
\nrevere the chief rab’bahs; the whole people to love and revere the emperor.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

11. Why this order?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

12. It is the doctrine of the ancients, handed down from generation to generation, and hath
\nproved to be a good doctrine for an empire.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

13. How knew the ancients these principles?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

14. The Creator taught them. The Creator sent His high angel, Te, who hath charge of the
\nintermediate world, down to mortals to teach them.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

15. How is this proved?<\/span>
\n
\n<\/span>16. By the sacred books of the ancients.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

17. Who wrote the ancient sacred books?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

18. Men inspired by the angel of the Creator.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

19. How is this proved?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

20. It is proved negatively, because men can not write so beautiful nor in the style.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

21. What were the fundamental doctrines of the ancient sacred books?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

22.To worship none but the Creator.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

23. To have no images nor idols.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

24. To keep the day of the change of the moon as a sacred day, and to do no work on that
\nday, but to practice rites, processions and ceremonies, for the glory of the Creator.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

25. To love the Creator above all else.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

26. To love one’s parents next to Him.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

27. To kill no living creature maliciously or for food.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

28. To tell no lies, nor to steal, nor to covet anything, that is another’s.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

29. Do not unto others what we would that they should not do unto us.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

30. To return good for evil.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

31. To feed and clothe the stranger, the sick and helpless.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

32. To be not idle, but industrious.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

33. To say no ill of any man nor woman nor child.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

34. To practice the highest wisdom one hath.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

35. To respect all people, as we desire to be respected<\/span><\/p>\n

Chapter 35<\/span><\/p>\n

1. What were the ascetics of the ancients?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

2. That heaven and earth are warring elements, one against the other.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

3. That all men must choose to serve one or the other, and at once engage in the battle.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

4. If a man desire everlasting life and bliss in heaven, then must he battle his earthly parts
\nwith great vigor.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

5. He shall torture his flesh, by fastings, and by lying naked on sharp stones, and by
\nflagellations, and otherwise showing before the Gods how displeased he is with his
\ncorporeal body.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

6. He must live alone, deny himself all pleasures, sleep not in a house, nor eat cooked
\nfood.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

7. What is the extreme of great learning?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

8. To devote one’s whole life to learning what is in the books. To cultivate the memory,
\nthat one may repeat all the words in four thousand books is a great learning. But it
\nis greater learning, to be capable of repeating eight thousand books, word for word.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

9. What is the extreme of loyalty?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

10. To love the emperor, so one can not see his faults; to love the rab’bahs, so one
\ncan not see their faults. To love discipline, so that one hath no time for anything
\nelse; and, on the contrary, to have no time for discipline nor rites nor ceremonies.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

11. What is the law of life?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

12. The spirit of man is the man; to live for the growth of the spirit, this is the highest of
\nliving.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

13. What manner is spirit communion?<\/span>
\n
\n<\/span>14. The spirit of one person can commune with the spirit of another, if they be not
\nencumbered with grossness. The spirits of the dead can commune with the spirits of the
\nliving, even without one’s knowing it.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

15. What is the destination of the souls of men?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

16. When man dieth, his spirit is born into the air of the earth, which is the
\nintermediate world, whither it sojourneth until sufficiently purified, and is reverential to
\nthe Creator; and then it is taken up by His angels to dwell in the higher heavens forever.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

17. What shall mortal man do for the benefit of his own spirit?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

18. He shall love the Creator with all his soul, and strive to emulate Him in good works
\nand gentleness and love.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

19. But if he do not this, what then?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

20. His spirit will be bound in hell after death; he will become a victim for the delight of
\ndemons.<\/span><\/p>\n

Chapter 36<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Ka’yu said: Such is the base the ancients have given into our hands, but who could
\nfollow them into detail?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

2. I was not born into the world for this; but to choose from each and all of them, what all
\nof them will accept.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

3. In the ancient days our country was sparsely settled; families were a good convenience.
\nBut, behold, the land is full of people. I have not to deal with a few scattered barbarians.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

4. I have to deal with a learned people, who have scarcely room to stand. I am only one
\nman; and ye, but seventy-two.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Of ourselves, we can do nothing. Shang Te (the true God) hath shaped the times to our
\nhands. Whether we live to see it, it mattereth little. The time will surely come, when the
\nemperor will be obliged to destroy the books of the ancients.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

6. Let us therefore take the cream of them, and provide for their preservation while we
\nmay.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

7. Ka’yu then divided up the labor amongst his seventy-two disciples; apportioning the
\nbooks of the ancients justly amongst them.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

8. And so great was the wisdom and scholarship of Ka’yu, that in twelve days’time some
\nof his disciples were ready with their reports to begin. And from these reports Ka’yu
\ndictated, and the scribes wrote down his words.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

9. And it came to pass, that when a committee presented a revision before Ka’yu that he
\neven knew it before it was read in the Council. And he dictated thereon, making the
\nnecessary alterations. After which, the subject was given to the scribes to re-write out in
\nfull.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

10. Now the whole time of the first sitting of the Council was eight and a half years, and
\nthen they had been over all the work.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

11. But so great was the wisdom and memory of Ka’yu, that he called out from
\nthe missings of his disciples sufficient to require yet two years’ more deliberation.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

12. And there were thus produced, from the lips of Ka’yu, twenty books, which
\ncontained the digest of upward of eighteen thousand books. Nor had any man
\nin all the world ever done the one-tenth part so great a feat of learning.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

13. The scribes wrote six copies for every one of the disciples; and when they were thus<\/span>
\nprovided, and were ready to depart, Ka’yu spake to them, saying:
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

14. What say ye, is the highest, best satisfaction? And when the disciples had answered,
\nsome one thing, and some another, then the master said:
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

15. To know that one hath done the highest thing within his power, this is the
\nhighest, best satisfaction. For what is any man at most, but an agent of the Most High?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

16. To be true to one’s own highest idea, is this not serving the Father? To be neglectful in
\nsuch conviction, is this not the sickness of all the learned?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

17. What honor say ye hath any man? The disciples answered, some one thing, and some
\nanother. After a while, the master said:
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

18. If those beneath him honor him, then it is no honor to him. If those above him honor
\nhim, then it is a reproval of his other deeds. But if he honor himself, he hath great honor
\nindeed. But who can honor himself, save he is perfect in his own sight? He can not do
\nthis, therefore he hath no honor in extreme. To choose little honor, to choose a medium
\nline, is this not the highest, any man can attain to?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

19. To grieve with one’s own self, because of imperfection, this is great folly. To eat fruit
\nand herbs and rice, these are the purest diet, but only a fool would starve rather than eat
\nflesh. Rites and ceremonies are useful, but even these a man had better dispense with,
\nthan to go to war for them.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

20. To rest on the ancients only, this is great folly. To honor the ancients only, and to
\nbelieve that they alone received revelation, these are the extremes of a foolish
\nunderstanding.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

21. To remember that the Creator is Ever Present, and with as much power and love and
\nwisdom today as in the ancient days, this is wisdom.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

22. To try to find some good thing one can do, this is creditable. But to do nothing good,
\nbecause one can not do it in his own way, this is execrable.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

23. He who findeth a good work to do, and doeth it, hath much satisfaction. But he should
\nnot exult therein; for he hath only done his duty. I have no honor in these twenty books.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

24. Two kinds of men I have found; those who are predestined by the Gods to accomplish
\na certain work, and those who are born with no predestination. The first are erroneously
\ncalled the highest, because they are at the head of great undertakings; but they are
\nnevertheless but instruments in the hands of the Gods. The others, who are born without a
\npredestined work, never can understand the former.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

25. To be born near enough to the Light to see it, and believe in it, and have faith in it,
\nthis is a great delight. To be so far from the Creator that one can not believe in His Person
\nand Presence, this is pitiable.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

26. I divorced my wife because I discovered she could not bring forth heirs to belief or
\nfaith. No man should be bound to a woman whose desires lay in the corporeal self. And
\nwomen should have the same privilege.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

27. He who is wed to the Great Spirit, how can he dwell with one who is wed to the
\nearth?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

28. To one man, celibacy is the highest life, because he hath joy in his Heavenly Father.
\nBut to one who hath not this joy, celibacy is a great punishment. The society must admit
\nboth conditions.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

29. There is no mean betwixt these two; therefore, both must be provided for.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

30. Those who desire celibacy, approach the termination of the race; those whose desires<\/span>
\nare the other way, are of a breed not so far on.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

31. There need be no quarrel betwixt them. The destiny of both must be completed some
\ntime.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

32. When a country is sparsely settled, those of extremes can go and live aside; it is
\nnothing to govern such a state. Or to proclaim extreme doctrines before them. But when a
\ncountry is full of people, the two extremes and the mean must dwell in proximity. It is not
\nan easy matter to govern them wisely.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

33. Whatever people can dwell together in great numbers on the smallest piece of
\nground, and yet have peace and plenty, such a people are the highest of all peoples.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

34. Where an extreme doctrine can not be carried out, it is better to have a less extreme
\ndoctrine. People, like a drove of sheep, are much inclined to follow a leader. Herein,
\npoliticians and lawyers and judges run the state into war.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

35. To legislate in such a way, that leaders can not lead the multitude into evil, this is
\nwisdom. Were all leaders dead, the people themselves would not be very bad. Yet it is
\nwrong to take any man’s life, for life is something man hath no property in. Life resteth
\nwith Jehovih only; it is His.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

36. Before the ignorant, and before fools, we speak by commandment. Chine’ya hath
\npassed that age; our books must go persuasively, yea, in the mean.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

37. To dictate to the learned, is to cast one’s treasures into the fire. By asking them
\nquestions, we can often lead them.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

38. Coaxing, with effect, is greater than dictation unobeyed. We preach to the rich man,
\nthat he should give all he hath to the poor, and he walketh away, giving nothing. When
\nwe say to him: Give a little, he doeth it. Herein the higher doctrine is the lower, and the
\nlower doctrine is the higher, because it hath potency.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

39. The ancients said, the first best thing was to love the Creator. I think so too. But when
\na philosopher asketh me to prove that the Creator is a Person, and is worth loving, I am
\npuzzled. To accept Him as a Person, and as All Good, without criticism, this I find giveth
\nthe greatest happiness.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

40. I have seen men who would pull the Creator to pieces and weigh His parts to know
\nHis worth, but such men end in disbelief in Him. One such man who accomplished any
\ngood in the world, I have not found. He is in the presence of goodly men like a fly that
\ndelighteth in breeding maggots; pretty enough in himself, but a breeder of vermin in the
\nstate.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

41. Yet he who saith: Let the evil practice evil, because the Creator created them, is of a
\nnarrow mind. Or, if he saith: Jehovih sent the rain-storm to destroy the harvest; or,
\nJehovih sendeth fevers to the dirty city; such a man lacketh discretion in words and
\njudgment.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

42. But he who perceiveth that man is part of the creation, in which he must do a part of
\nthe work himself, or fevers will result, such a man hath his understanding open in regard
\nto the Father.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

43. Betwixt the two, much casting of all things in Jehovih’s face, and too little belief in
\nHim, lieth the mean, which worketh the perfection of man.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

44. To try to find the Creator with love and adoration, instead of with a dissecting knife;
\nthis leadeth man on the highest road. To trust in Him, wherein we strive to do our best;
\nthis is good philosophy. To lay about idly, and not plant our fields, trusting in Him; this is<\/span>
\ngreat darkness.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

45. A wise man, perceiving the defects of the society, will not censure it, but turn to and
\nfind a remedy. It is for such purpose the angels of the higher heavens raise up great men
\nin the world.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

46. I have seen many people in many different kinds of worship, and they go through their
\nparts in the sacrifice without perceiving the spiritual idea of the founders, and they are
\nneither better nor worse for it. The infidel, with little discretion, seeing this, abuseth all
\nthe doctrines, but a wise man goeth between them to find the good which others lose sight
\nof.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

47. To find all the beauties in a man or woman, or in their behavior: this is God-like. To
\nfind their faults and speak of them: this is devilish. Yet, consider the man reverently, who
\nspeaketh not of persons. Who knoweth, may not all men be as automatons, some in the
\nhands of Gods, and some in the hands of devils?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

48. Such a doctrine would make us less severe with those who err, or who do evil. We
\nhope for this.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

49. I have seen the criminals being whipped, and I have said to myself: Only by a mere
\ncircumstance of birth, the wrong ones are being lashed. Otherwise, they had been
\ngovernors of the states.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

50. I once helped a bad man to elude his pursuers, and he escaped whipping, and he
\nreformed himself. Since then, I have been a convert to great leniency.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

51. The time will come when bad men will not be whipped nor tortured, but be
\nappropriated to benefit the province; to shape our laws for such interpretation, is the
\nbeginning of wisdom in the government.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

52. To appropriate all men to the best use; this is the wisest governor. To punish a bad
\nman for vengeance sake; this is devilish.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

53. If a man slay my sister, I raise my sword up before him, that he may run against it but
\nI strike him not. To reform a man is better than to kill him; to lock up a bad man where he
\ncan do no harm, is sufficient for the state.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

54. I have watched the soldiers in drill, and I said: This is a beautiful sight! For I saw the
\ncolors of their clothes, and the poetry of their maneuvers.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

55. But I watched them again, and I said: This is wicked! For I looked into the object of
\nthe drill, and I beheld blood and death. The state useth power by violent means, but the
\nsoul within us desireth to accomplish peacefully.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

56. The standard of a wise man, to judge wisely, requireth of him to imagine he is a God,
\nhigh up in heaven, and that all men are his children. He should consider them as a whole,
\nand beneficially.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

57. This I perceive: There were a few wise men among the ancients, as wise as the wisest
\nof this day. But today there are more wise men than in the ancient times. Doth this not
\nlead us to believe that a time will come, when all people will be wise?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

58. I should like to see this; it would settle many vexed questions. The seers tell us the
\nsoul of man is immortal; moreover, that they have seen the spirits of the dead. I tried for
\nmany years to ascertain if this were true, but I could not discover.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

59. Nevertheless, I said: It is a good doctrine; I will appropriate it. The Creator must have
\nperceived it also. It is reasonable, then, that He created man immortal.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

60. The priests have appropriated this doctrine also. Moreover, the ancients say, the good<\/span>
\nare rewarded in heaven, and the evil punished in hell. The people have been told this, and
\nyet they will not be good.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

61. Chine said: To deny one’s self, and to labor for others with all our wisdom and
\nstrength: this is the highest doctrine. I saw a man on a mountain, calling to his flocks in
\nthe valleys, but they understood him not, and came not. Then he came mid-way down the
\nmountain, and called, and the flocks heard him, and understood, and they went up to him.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

62. It is easy to plan out high doctrines, but not so easy to give an efficient doctrine.
\nHe, who is mid-way, is the most potent. I have observed, that all peoples have
\nhigher doctrines, than they live up to. Yea, the boast of one religion over another is
\nrelatively of its superior height in the doctrines enunciated. And yet, they, who boast thus,
\npractice neither virtue nor sincerity, for they live not up to the commonest doctrines.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

63. On the other hand, the boast of a government is not of its virtues and goodness, and
\nits fatherly care of the helpless, but of its strength in arms, and its power to kill. And these
\nare the lowest of attributes.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

64. To reach the government, and make it virtuous and fatherly, I was born into the world.
\nThis can be done only through the family, then to the hamlet, then to the province, and
\nthen to the empire.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

65. But I could not do this without sincere men, who would faithfully practice my
\ndoctrines.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

66. That ye are sincere, it is proved in your being with me; that you are virtuous and
\ndiscreet, with propriety, is proved in you giving ear to my words. Yet, in this, how can I
\nbe sincere? I say, my words, when, in fact, I feel that no words I utter before the Council,
\nare my words in fact.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

67. Is this not true of all good men? wherein they are mouth-pieces for the Gods, or for
\nthe circumstances surrounding them? We open our mouth and speak, but where do our
\nideas come from?
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

68. When the sun shineth on the field, the herbs come forth; is it not the Creator’s light
\nfalling upon us, that causeth our ideas to come forth? And if we keep away the grass and
\nweeds, we receive a profitable harvest.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

69. I would that all men would write a book on the Creator. Thought, directed in this way,
\nwill not go far from the right road.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

70. To feel that He is with us, hearing all our words, seeing all our deeds: is this not
\nthe surest foundation to teach our children? To make them sincere, and to behave
\nwith propriety, what is so potent as faith in the Creator, and in His Son, Shang Te?<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
