《中國(guó)人的思路(英文)》: 2.2.2 A Benevolent Ruler Has No Match Mencius said, “King Jie and King Zhou lost the world because theylost the people‘s support. They lost the people’s support because theylost the people‘s hearts. There is a way to win the world: win the people’ssupport and you will win the world. There is a way to win the people‘ssupport: win their hearts and you will win their support. There is a way to win the people’s hearts: collect for them what they desire and do not force on them what they hate.”58 From such proposiUons it is possible to feel that Mencius was genu-inely honest and simple, and his cultural and moral idealism were perfect.The goodness of humanity, people‘s desire for goodness, and the good-ness exercised by the monarch preasely constituted benevolent gover-nance (rule), on the basis of which an earthly paradise would be built, in wluch “Happiness is shared with the people,” “Outstanding people fill the responsible positions,” “Punishments and fines are spared, taxes and levies are reduced, and the fields ploughed deeply and carefully weeded.”In addition, “If goods afe stored in the marketplace but not taxed, and if goods are purchased by the state according to law when unsalable, then all the traders in the world will be pleased to have stocks in his market-place. If there is only inspection but no duty at his frontier passes, then aU the travelers in the world will be pleased to travel on his roads. If til-lers only have to help in the public fields but pay no taxes on their private land, then all the tillers will be pleased to till the land in this territory”59 On the one hand, histOfical facts show that China during the Spring and Autumn Period was torn by wars of injustice and rulers fought for power and gains using dirty tricks and schemes, bloody slaughtef and often wild goose chases, leaving no state untouched. On the other hand, Confucian-ism held the idea that the benevolent were invincible and unrivaled, and enjoyed popular support. As Mencius’ famous remark says, “Do rever-ence to the elders in your own family and extend it to those in other fam-ilies; show loving care to the young in your own family and extend it to those in other families - do this and you would find it as easy to rule the world as to roll something on the palm of your hand.”60 (Author‘s Note:When I first heard the term “communism” in my teens, what immedi-ately came into my mind was the above quote. If it should come true, all nations would be like one family and all people would be united as one,what else could it be than a paradise on Earth?) Mencius held that it would not be more difficult to rule by the kingly way (benevolence) rather than by force and to show mercy rather than cruelty to the people. In his words, it would be as easy as “breaking a twig for an elder,” and absolutely not like “jumping over the North Sea with Mount Tai under your arm.”61 Emperors and kings failed to do it,“that is a case of not being willing to do it, rather than a case of not be-ing able t0.”62 That was the only difference. ……
