In the Analects of Confucius, Taibo: Confucius said, "if you are not in your position, you will not pursue your own policies." It is also found in the constitution. Its purpose is "to be dedicated to their duties" (Liu Baonan's the Analects of Justice). It is also the consistent attitude of Confucianism. Zengzi said: a gentleman is beyond his place. (the Analects of Confucius · Xianwen) later Mencius said that "if the position is low, the crime is high"; in the doctrine of the mean, there are also "the gentleman acts according to his position, and does not want to be outside of it", "in the upper position, he does not want to go down; in the lower position, he does not want to go up".

analysis

"Not in his position, not seeking his own government" is related to the so-called problem of Confucian reputation. If you are not in his position and seek his administration, you will be suspected of transgression, and it will be regarded as a violation of propriety. "Not in his position, not pursuing his own policy" is to be self-contained. In the late spring and Autumn period, it played an important role in maintaining social stability and restraining the common people from "making trouble", but it had a certain negative impact on later generations, especially on the people's attitude of not caring about politics and abiding by etiquette. We should advocate "being in its place and seeking its administration". the so-called: there is a suspicion of transgression, words make the other party lose his or her manners! Not being in his position, not pursuing his own policies, and thinking twice before acting are all ways of dealing with life. Don't (stand) in their (opposite party's) position (think), don't (understand) their politics (opposite party's idea, appear embarrassed)
