《君子卷第十二 - The Junzi》 | English translation: Jeffrey S. Bullock [?] | Library Resources |
| 13 | 君子卷第... : | 或曰：「聖人自恣與？何言之多端也。」曰：「子未睹禹之行水與？一東一北，行之無礙也。君子之行，獨無礙乎？如何直往也！水避礙則通於海，君子避礙則通於理。」 |
| The Junzi: |
Someone said: Is the sage not self-indulgent? Why do his words flow from so many fonts? Yangzi said: Have you not seen how Yu made water flow? Sometimes east, sometimes north—but always flowing without obstruction. How can the junzi's path alone be without obstruction? How can he be direct? If water avoids obstructions, then it reaches the sea. If a junzi avoids obstructions, he will reach the universal principle. |
