This show is on channel U, every tues 9.30pm.
My sis and I both think this is a very good show, its this 于丹 professor talking bout 《论语》. She explains all the very profound teachings in it and gives us some insights on how to treat people, ourselves and live.
One of the story is: There is this student who ask Confucious to give him one word for him to use and adhere to live thru his whole life. Of cos being the nice man he is, he answered the mean question with calmness.
恕
And with this he added 8 more words as explanation.
己所不欲 勿施于人
So to elaborate, it means forgiveness is the way to live your life. And whatever that you do not want to happen to you, you should refrain from doing that to others.
Another very nice phrase is
于人玫瑰 手留余香
which means by helping others you will find happiness. Direct translation of the above would be give someone a rose, the smell would linger in your hand. More of this would be post nxt week. Haha provided i remember what the person say.
