While Seeking to Establish Oneself, One Strives Also to Establish Others
自己想要立身而使他人也能立身?!凹河⒍⑷恕币徽f(shuō)的完整表達(dá)是“己欲立而立人,己欲達(dá)而達(dá)人”。該說(shuō)由孔子(前551—前479)提出,是儒家所主張的“恕”道的一種表現(xiàn)。按照“恕”道的要求,人們應(yīng)以自身的感受與意愿去理解、體貼他人,做到推己及人。從喜好與追求的方面而言,自己想要立身與通達(dá),就要理解他人也會(huì)有同樣的追求。因此在自己立身與通達(dá)的同時(shí),也要輔助他人使之達(dá)成立身與通達(dá)的目標(biāo)。
The more complete rendering of this concept is "while seeking to establish oneself, one strives also to establish others; while seeking to enhance oneself, one strives also to enhance others." The concept was coined by Confucius (551-479 BC) as an expression of his doctrine of being considerate, which requires people to understand and be considerate of others with their own feelings and aspirations, and putting themselves in the position of others. In terms of preferences and pursuits, if one wants to be established and enhance oneself, one must understand that others may want the same, and should assist them to do so.

具有仁德的人,自己想要立身也使他人能夠立身,自己想要通達(dá)也使他人能夠通達(dá)。
When the man of perfect virtue seeks to establish himself, he seeks also to establish others; when he seeks to enhance himself, he strives also to enhance others. (The Analects)
