Mao Ni
I love this chapter there’s a lot to think about. Yesu is teaching NQ that they only way you can know the will of people is to emphatize with them. But you can only do that if you experience what they experienced. I also like the lesson he gave about human being, that is so true most people doesn’t show their vulnerability. For some not because they don’t want to be honest but because they have been betrayed and rudiculed before.
Only by being thrown into the difficulties of the path, only by overcoming it, does a person understand all the horrors of the world and become an enlightened humonist. So the veterans of the Second World War, they did not talk about her, they were not cruel, they were not arrogant, they appreciated human happiness, did not want to see broken noses ... they already saw all the horrors of the world ... and therefore they valued people .. . A person who has not known difficulties cannot objectively look at the world and understand the path of Dao ... IMHO
