My explanation of Confucianism


My explanation of Confucianism is like this:-
SELF ------- FAMILY -------- COUNTRY
Mind  ----     Father  ------ King/President
Mouth  -----  Mother  -------- Government
Body  -------Children  -------   Citizen

Mind,  father and king/president are heads of their groups.
Mind thinks good, mouth speaks good and body healthy.
Mind thinks evil, mouth speaks evil and body in sickness.
Same with father and president.
Father or president good,  the rest will be good.
Father or president evil, the rest are bad too and suffer.
So the best is to appoint a holy man to be president, a figure head.
This is also application of 'wu wei'.
See Tao Te Ching chapter 32 and 37.
So a woman cannot be president or be a bad omen for the country.
This is Law of Nature.
