📜 原文 Original Text
「克己复礼为仁。一日克己复礼，天下归仁焉。」 ——《论语·颜渊》
— Analects, Yan Yuan
📖 释义 Annotation
「克己复礼」是孔子对「仁」的核心教导。颜渊问仁，孔子回答：约束自己，使言行回归礼制，这就是仁。一旦能做到克己复礼，天下人都会称赞你为仁人。「克己」是自我约束——控制欲望、情绪和冲动；「复礼」是回归规范——使行为符合社会公认的准则。这是儒家修身的基本功。
'Restrain the self and return to propriety' — Yan Yuan asked about benevolence. Confucius answered: restrain yourself, return to propriety, and this is benevolence. 'Keji' is self-restraint; 'fuli' is returning to norms. This is the basic practice of Confucian self-cultivation.

自由不是放纵，而是自律。「克己复礼」提醒我们：真正的自由来自对自我的掌控——能管住自己的人，才是真正的强者。
Freedom is not indulgence but self-discipline. 'Restrain the self and return to propriety' reminds us: true freedom comes from self-mastery — those who can control themselves are the truly strong.
