Golden Quill Classics, 2025

What if true wisdom lies in balance? Doctrine of the Mean (Zhongyong), attributed to Zisi, the grandson of Confucius, is one of the Four Books that form the foundation of Confucian philosophy. For centuries, it has guided scholars, rulers, and individuals in the pursuit of moral cultivation, social harmony, and self-mastery. This timeless text teaches that the key to virtue and harmony lies not in extremes, but in moderation and balance—the "mean" between excess and deficiency. It explores themes of sincerity, righteousness, and the alignment of human conduct with the order of Heaven. Both a spiritual and practical guide, the book blends ethical philosophy with political and personal wisdom, offering lessons that remain as relevant today as they were in ancient China. Celebrated for its depth and clarity, Doctrine of the Mean is essential reading for anyone interested in Chinese philosophy, leadership, or the cultivation of inner peace and virtue. ??
