弟子規 by active 17th century-18th century Yuxiu Li

"弟子規" by Yuxiu Li is a moral instruction text written during the Qing dynasty reign of the Kangxi Emperor (1661–1722). Based on Confucian teachings, this guide prescribes how children should behave at home and in society. Written in three-character verses, it outlines seven chapters of duties: respecting parents, honoring elders and siblings, living cautiously, being trustworthy, loving others universally, and seeking wisdom. The text emphasizes that moral values must be taught first, for without them, all other learning amounts to nothing. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
