Story:
During the Spring and Autumn period, Sun Xiu, a native of Lu, discussed matters of self-cultivation and conduct with his teacher, Bian Qingzi. Sun Xiu complained that he had not encountered an enlightened ruler, feeling that his talents were unrecognized.
Bian Qingzi believed that ordinary people, who constantly think about satisfying their desires, like holding up the sun and moon without any concealment, could never become sages.
