The Chinese Wisdom
Hello dear readers here is my new entry on steemit platform in this post I will show Chinese Wisdom so let's see.
Back in the third century A.D.. the Chinese king sent his son Prince Tax to a temple to get an education (mm the great master Pan Ku. Prince Tai want to succeed his father as king. Pan Ku was In teach the buy the basics of a good ruler. When the Prime arrived at the temple. the master sent him alone to the Ming-li Forest With the advice to meditate and discover the various sounds m the forest. After one year the Prince was to return to the temple to submit his findings of the sounds before the great master.
When Prince Tai returned. Pan Ku. the great master at the temple asked the boy to describe all that he had seen or had heard during his stay m the forest.
“Repeated Master." said the Prince. “I could hear the cuckoos' song. the leaves' style. the humming bird's hum. the cricket's chirp. the grass blow. the bees buzz. and the winds whisper". When the Prince had narrated all that he had experienced the master ordered him to go back to the forest again. He told him to stay for another one year to liven to what more he could hear. The Prince was puzzled by the master's new burden. “Had he not discerned every sound and explained everything to the master already?" Thought the Prince to himself.
He went back to the forest again for one more year with the advice to meditate and discern the various sounds in the forest.
For days and nights. the young prince sat alone In the forest listening to the sounds more attentively. But he heard no sounds other than those he had already heard. Then. one morning. as the prince sat silently beneath the trees, he started to discern faint sounds unlike those he had ever heard before. The mute closely he listened. the more audible and clearer the sounds became. The t’eehng of enlightenment enveloped the buy. “These must be the sounds the master wished me to discern!” He reflected.
When Prince Tai returned to the temple. the master asked him what more he had heard. “Respected Master." responded the prince reverently. "when l hastened most comely. I could hear the unheard sound of f|owers opening. the sound of the sun warming the earth and the sound of the grass With the morning dew."
The master nodded approvingly:
“To hear the unheard," remarked Pan Ku, Is a necessary discipline to be a good ruler. For. when a ruler he learned to listen closely t0 the people's heart. hearing their feelings unconsummated. pains unexpired l and complaints not spoken at. only then he can hope m inspire confidence m his people. He can understand when something is wrong. and meet the true needs of the citizens. The demise of states come when leaders listen only to superficial words and don't go deeply into the souls of the people to hear their true opinions, feelings and desire.
