yuàn ㄩㄢˋ (8): 不接近，疏遠。 Keep away from, avoid.
| 《·》: | 子曰：「務民之義，敬鬼神而遠之，可謂知矣。」 | | The Master said, "To give one's self earnestly to the duties due to men, and, while respecting spiritual beings, to keep aloof from them, may be called wisdom." | | 《·》: | 君子遠庖廚，凡有血氣之類，弗身踐也。 | | A superior man had his shambles and kitchen at a distance (from the) house; he did not tread wherever there was such a thing as blood or (tainted) air. | | 《》: | 若君欲奪之，則近賢而遠不肖，治其煩亂，緩其刑罰，振貧窮而恤孤寡，行恩惠而給不足，民將歸君，則雖有十田成氏，其如君何？ | | 《·》: | 嚴刑罰，則民遠邪。 | | 《》: | 敬鬼神而遠之。 | | 《·》: | 故曰：「聖人不煩卜筮」，「敬鬼神而遠之」 |
