CONFUCIANISM

"Heaven means to be one with God."        Confucius "A great man regards heaven and earth and the myriad things as one body. He sees the world as a single family and the country as a single person. ... That a great person can see heaven and earth and the myriad things as one body is not because he wants to do it consciously, but because it is natural for the human nature of the mind to do it. … Such a spirit has its roots in a heaven-filled nature. ” The Great Learning "To accomplish without acting, reaching without seeking - that is Heaven's work."                                                               Hsün Tsu “When the work of heaven has been established and its accomplishments have been accomplished, when the form of man is whole and his spirit has been born, love and hate, delight and anger, worry and joy will find a home in him. “        Hsün Tsu
