40. Principles of Conduct

The same vocabulary may have different connotations, hence, when learning Yiology, you need to adopt field-based thinking. ‘Respect, tolerance and humility’ basing on Yi philosophy are also our principles of conduct in life.

 

Respect is a common word. Some people feel it's nothing new, and everyone knows to respect teachers and elders. People's reverence or fear towards the elders or the strong is less about respect, more about awe or fear. 'Respect' in Yi Philosophy is not like this.

“Respect” in Yi refers to the state of mind towards those who hold different opinions and the attitude towards those who are weaker.

That is, respect for others who are different or weaker. For example: Respecting the fellow practitioners is not difficult, but how is your attitude towards those with different views? Are you respectful? It's not hard to respect your teachers and elders, but how is your attitude towards the weak? Are you respectful?

 

‘Respect’ in Yi is a reflection of the level of Jue (Perception) Shi (Cognition). It involves respect for the energy field and the individual, respect for both the rules and the individual wills; Of course, respect is mutual. ‘The respected people also need self-respect; Only with self-respect, can you get respect from others.’ Balance makes it so, and so does the backlash.

 

To understand “respect”, one must be aware of the limitation of Jue (Perception) Shi (Cognition). For example: some people mistakenly think that “all things are one” and wish “Great Harmony of the world.” While seemingly full of boundless love, it actually shows a limited perspective, and respect becomes narrow.

 

The word tolerance is usually explained as "broad-minded and magnanimous, not petty, not pursuing". This is not magnanimity, but foolish kindness or obsession. The 'tolerance' based on Yi philosophy is not like this.

“Tolerance” in Yi means ‘forgiveness and acceptance’, focusing on the growth of Jue (Perception) Shi (Cognition), from forgiveness to acceptance.

 

First, forgiveness does not mean “to let pass” and it does not equate to absolution. For example, when some people “plead for forgiveness”, they just try to evade responsibility. Forgiveness basing on self-righteous goodwill will not bring growth but rather becomes an accomplice. Those who plead for forgiveness must have imbalance, so forgiveness has a premise: to take responsibility, accept the backlash, introspect and restrain, and develop Jue (Perception) Shi (Cognition). Under this premise, balance can be reestablished, and "from forgiveness to inclusivity" can be achieved. This is 'tolerance'.

Secondly, forgiveness also includes reflection on each other’s emotions, improving Jue (Perception) Shi (Cognition) and dealing with people and issues with clear and objective field-based thinking. Do not lose wisdom due to emotions and do not be obsessed with “Xiang (Manifestation) of emotions.” Forgiving emotions lead to acceptance. This is also “tolerance.”

 

Humility is something people are often taught, "to be humble to others," but the demanded humility is often a poor experience. Because the pretended humility makes people live tiresomely and superficially.

‘Humble’ in Yi does not need to be deliberate. It is a natural manifestation when Shi (Cognition) is developed to a certain level and the “three cornerstones” are deeply understood.

 

The 'humility' in Yi is not external, but generated. It is both character and habit. 'Humility' comes from the growth of Jue (Perception) Shi (Cognition) and it is the glow of "self-balancing and a balanced self". With such humility, one will know how to treat others kindly.

 

From understanding to practicing "Respect, Tolerance, Humility", we know what kind of person a Yiology learner is. Learning Yiology is like "becoming a person anew".

 

Yi philosophy and principles of conduct are like the soil nurturing the “state of mind”, enabling us learn to get along with each other and grow into beautiful lives.

the energy fields. Integrity is the principle of interaction between fields. ‘Be honest to yourself and be integral to others’, respect rules, follow balance, and keep promises. These are the basic qualities, like instincts, of the Yiology learners.

 

‘Honesty and integrity’ originate from field-based thinking and are based on the growth

Yiology is a means of practice of the information of Yi on the Earth.

Yi is not to make you believe, but to teach you how to question!
