Description
A beautiful look at the Ancient Chinese philosophy of Rén and how it can help us with our hectic modern lives. The Chinese character for Rén is a combination of the word for 'person' and the number 'two'. This represents the concept of 'connection' whether it is between two people or between people and the world. And in the teachings of Ancient philosopher Confucius, Rén is the study of our relationship with the world around us. In this beautiful and accessible new book, Yen Ooi explains the various facets of the philosophy of Rén and explores how Confucius's teachings can be applied to all aspects of our lives, from our relationship with ourselves to that with everyone around us. She shows us how, using the basic principles of Rén, we can connect better with friends, family and colleagues, become helpful members of society and find fulfilment in ideas of community, justice, morality and compassion. And, ultimately, how to become happier human beings. This practical and remarkable book is essential for anyone feeling lost in the modern world.
