Confucius traveled around the world for fourteen years. Where did he go?

Confucius traveled around the world with Lu as the origin and visited the neighboring countries of Lu respectively. They are Song, Chen, Cai and Chu in the southwest, Qi in the north, Jing, Wei, Cao and Zheng in the west and Qi in the east.

On his way around the world, Confucius also had very interesting things in various places.

The Analects of Confucius in Linzi records: "Qi Wen Shao, I don't know meat in March, saying,' I don't want to be happy, but I also. Confucius said, "The flute player is Shao, and the sound of shun is as smooth as the south wind. This is a sound, like an animal in cold and hot weather, like a moving thing. Thunder moves the beast, wind and rain move the dragon, benevolence moves the gentleman, and wealth moves the villain. "I have always been curious about what kind of music is worthy of Confucius' praise, and I am also curious about what kind of music can make Confucius eat meat for three months without knowing the delicious meat.

Mount Tai can become big because it doesn't allow soil, and rivers and seas can be deep because they don't choose small streams. Mencius with all his heart said: "Confucius climbed the East Mountain but was small, and climbed Mount Tai but was smaller than the world." Confucius knew that everything should be seen beyond himself. Everything in the world should be viewed with a mentality that transcends things. To realize ideals and ambitions, one must have good health, knowledge and the ability to think independently.

After returning from his travels, Confucius summed up his lifelong academic thoughts on education, and embodied the principle of "cultivating people" in the Analects of Confucius in these twelve words: "Taking Tao as the aim, relying on morality, relying on benevolence and traveling by art". These twelve short words are the summary of his travels around the world after Qian Fan. If you set a goal in life, find the basis for doing things correctly, correct your attitude towards others, and seek inner prosperity, you will also succeed.
