A joke about Confucianism, Taoism, Mohism and France

A young man went to visit a master and asked him about life. He asked, "Master, what is the true meaning of life?" The master asked, I saw a blind man walking with a lantern last night. He can't see it himself. What's the use of playing lanterns? "

Young people can't answer.

The master said slowly, this matter can be divided into many situations:

First, if he is afraid that others will not see him at night and bump into him, this is Mohism.

Second, if he is afraid that others can't see the road clearly, he will light a lamp for passers-by. This is Confucianism.

Third, if he thinks he wants to fight, he will fight. He won't fight if he doesn't want to. Let it be. This is Taoism.

Fourthly, if he takes this opportunity to show all sentient beings, he is a Buddhist.

If he thinks he must play lanterns when he goes out at night, this is a legalist.

6. If he is really blind, but uses lanterns to guide others, then he must be an expert.

7. If he sees clearly but pretends not to see, he is a politician.

When you understand, you will understand the true meaning of life.
