Be content and never be humiliated. From where? What do you mean by that?
Contributions to Glory, also known as Contributions in Past Dynasties and Contributions in Ancient and Modern Times, has never been published by an author, except that it was revised by Confucian scholars in Tongzhi period of Qing Dynasty, which is probably the crystallization of folk creation in Qing Dynasty.
Contentment and Zhi Zhi are the unique wisdom in China's philosophy, which are summarized as two easy-to-pass aphorisms in Augmented Sages: contentment is always a pleasure, and life is not humiliating; Zhi Zhi always stops, and he will never be ashamed.
It means that a contented person can always feel satisfied, never be controlled by desire, and humiliate himself all his life; People who do things in moderation can often be temperate, so they will never be ashamed of their misconduct all their lives.
Extended data:
Laozi's Tao Te Ching said: "If you don't know enough, you won't be humiliated. If you know it, it will last for a long time." Contentment means having an easy-to-satisfy heart, rather than blindly demanding and insatiable.
There is a famous couplet in Zhitong Temple in A Dream of Red Mansions, which is shocking: "I forgot to put my hand behind me and no way back in front." This couplet is not only about Jia's family, but also the normal state of the world: I obviously have a lot, but I still don't want to stop, continue to be controlled by greed, and make mistakes again and again until I get stuck in the mud and find that there is no way to go, and it is too late to turn back.
If you don't know how to converge, you will push your luck, blindly strive for fame and profit, and it never rains but it pours. Sin is greater than desire, disaster is greater than dissatisfaction; ? Blame is greater than desire. Therefore, the content is always enough.
