What is filial piety?
Hieu according to ancient notions of how different this time? kanji that you know that: The word "the" is the abbreviation of the word "Old" in on (turn off the bottom) and the word "Death" below. "Hieu" ie the father relationship, the less; an extent that the director of the children to their parents, grandparents and ancestors.
Reading "Filial piety" Best of Bar (Tr.331 book "native customary land margin" - Publisher Dong Thap) along with some post Happy holidays to talk about the old, old nests, so I agreed and not repeat, would say only a few words.
Filial piety throughout all the customs of our people, can not say the word when writing about the customary hospitality It's traditional. Ritual, funeral, wedding, including childbirth, building up the door, hit the carnival, the water, the village, habits and customs that have had the custom of outdated, today was ranked on the type of immorality, we also distill the essence of being a part of filial piety.
"Hieu" favoring local economic sense, is the root of all virtue. Folk songs and proverbs have said many, even in primer, in "didactic moral message" you have to understand: "The father as Mount Tai, the mother as the source of water flowing out" ... The foot of which, who do not accept, but the concept of the word "of" today also other parts of the past.
dare I not didactically, please just narrated a debate within my family
first I asked "," Hieu "What is? She promptly replied," Hieu "is hospitable to people, Uncle Ho recommend" "Middle with water, tastes with the people." Radios are also mentioned: "Understanding the foot, ie staff to care for people, not bribes, do not be bossy with people."
- "understanding" is what?
- "The hospitality" is the .. .'s work ... is the staff caring for people stuck without food, no ... Come embarrassing me. My youngest son replied instead:
- "The hospitality" is making funeral, because the day before, put funeral finished, he stood up to thank neighbors inherent helped themselves by family hospitality worry done ... .
Coming here, I was paying them more graphic parts:
- I have reason to say bye! "The hospitality" is for the dead, so they say, "Hieu", "Joy", which is just the funeral, the wedding. But in Asia, the hospitality to three years rather than take drugs is done yet finished! Go to Dr. Ly Tran Quan, a secondary end end end hospitality Le Dynasty, before his death wrote couplets on "Three year spent completing hospitality course. Median take majority Cross" (The word "the" has completed 3 years , the word "China" is not a full ten percent.)
- Hieu to the dead, but for people who live, why? "The death of the student as" the other?
- oh , I want to know that you have the taste or not, will you please try to wait after you die will clear. Ca dao saying "When life is not for eating. Die down as the time flies oration". In ancient times even more so now. But I also do not worry about flies eat part, because young people today have read documents that fact flies anymore.
Coming here to move to the controversy between me and my uncle conceptual word "of" modern ancient cauldron .
- The youth today do not know "Nine letters isle" is something. Acknowledgment laden tongue pain, raising her children how much mind power far greater that they have no knowledge.
- I complained - Moreover also rude, stubborn ...
- It is nothing less than the debt at the same time, her child and then adopt him too. Young people now say the opposite: "I was born, I grew up farming, which is responsible for three sets of fathers." Responsible parents whose child: "Why people eat sung happy, pampered. Their father is" Rigorous "," Ky bo 'but also including gift! "- My uncle told me more.
regard to his parents have children as such, is indeed unfortunate, but also to assert that very few people, besides the adulthood, acquired the education of family, school, society and assayed fact of life, we will change the situation. parents always willing to forgive, tears flowing down is common sense.
desk to folk song: "Fish do not eat salt spoilage, the controversy damaged the road hundred parents ", and" wiser duck eggs "... the occasion, both my son interjected:
- The application for parents and uncle, the parents argue not hundred percent all the damage . parents thought wrong if done wrong, you can stop it where there is disloyalty!
uncle nodded approval:
- I say no reason. sentence "The parents argued hundred naughty parts" is true only when the child childhood, but as an adult he was more wise than her parents. "rather than the blessed Son" that! This era, scientific and technical advances rocketed, political thought, economics and innovation that now we often old wing or conservative, conservative bigotry. Europe is also a conflict between two generations ...
- Follow me, the proverb "There are children living crime, the death penalty is no" correct?
- True ancient but not this time. In ancient times have the "Real Property tam hospitality, very great post" (there are 3 things disloyalty to parents, in which no child is most severe). His parents died while she was alive but not in ourselves, if we do not have kids, after we die, we also note the bloodstream shattered generations of ancestors, his father saved. But while I live, why? There are few people believe that parenting brings nothing but bluff more. So how many people have hated me she loved me. Maybe they think that they have no connection chon was now his father hoped he would connect me.
During the book "One Thousand and One Nights," a wise crowd answered: "The suffering and most persistent life is spoiled child ". But there is another side, which is positive and popular "The wise it's cool dad" "A one of" one word. Meet people to ask each other: "Some boys and girls machine?", But asked: "What of it?" Where. And as the phrase "Children dependable father, the old reliable" interpersonal today right?
's Honour referred to the ancient mirror is the original yellow sea king as King Le Huyen Tong nearly three hundred years ago (1663-1671 ), you turn red with four gold letters "Hieu ability" factor as King Ham Nghi than a hundred years ago (1885-1888) I wonder Uncle nature suggests: "The present shortage of Honor mirror stars from the central to local levels not seen any form of commendation praising What. During the book "Crusader II" permanent County Clerk Integrate the new Nine Foot 6 years to complete their home Member feast marks earned tangerine Chan's mother Cuu District Land Thanh Hoa today. Built-Luc also listed among "Talk twenty four thousand fragrant want to try," stars in the history books do not tell that to.
uncle had finished speaking, his son My first mixed immediately:
- Thought someone famous, but as Luc Built on mother tangerine paper also put into the history books, the ink in our country where the statistics for all, in an area well to the daily freight . soon as she is, and go eat at a small memorial at the church with their uncle, he has in mind, then new four grandchildren, five years old, she remembers her uncle tore a resource available for banana leaves before eating deck, then part spring, part wedges, rolls, sticky rice, fruits of me, I will pack both bring about the mother, the children, even though children are dying, her uncle rather than Irregularities Luc!
Listen to recall old memories My wife smiled nodded appreciatively. I glanced over to see my wife was teary because touching.
things my boy, suddenly turned back pay, suddenly asked:
- King board with 'Hieu happy "whatever is true that objects do not pay, or whether the hear reports on the stern, just give us much money style, clever flattery, to be longing for to eat? letter A, past the stupid stuff "German" King Shun Dai Ngu their church ", that is also not wise: hospitality with parents have had a mild and harsh with her ​​stepmother as what type of bran mother, she faced the crowd but do not attempt to eat "a belief Hundred bitter sweet". Dynasty who, adoptive mother bury someone as old Han Guo is also "Thom thousand'd try." Rightfully ngiem court must treat murder, more harmful to a child's murder.
Finally I turned to my uncle asked me:
- your opinion, how is "trying to understand" what "Real hospitality ". Between two kids, whom did he choose, a child like this: The poor, the new 4 and 5-year-old has won the tops of courtesy knowing mother, another is brought wealth, not on time also father concocted pretext day anniversary, basic to lavish entertained, who needs topping side, the LMA children seem thankful, while the mother spurned rustic, hardy poor as in the story "signaling father" of Nguyen Cong Hoan. How, between "Luc Built my house," although at times rude and stubborn character "tiger carmaker owner" of Nguyen Cong Hoan, whom did he choose?
seems to avoid the things that are not tolerated right, you pay me back, told me softly:
- Asia, could argue with their parents but to politely, gently, to know the word choice, choose the time, absolutely not petulant attitude , irritable, rude, especially when there are visitors, when the line between the public, or in front of his wife and children, do not let him on the altar she scolded my parents taught me that do not know; do not let her children, the youngest child my parents despise oily, greasy contempt of course also the nephew. Later she would clearly have child knows parents lap.
From now until the time I just sit and listen, speak now new: "Listen to your father, my uncle, who he said is a reasonable"!
