Extracts from the Classic Of Filial Piety.
Being Regulated by Filial Piety
The master said, " This is how the filial son serve his parents: he show respect for them daily; when providing for them , he shows happiness; during their illness, he shows worry; during mourning, he shows grief; when making offerings to his deceased parents and ancestors, he shows reverence.
Only when these five preconditions are met can he serve his parents.
' He who serves his parents is not arrogant as a superior, not rebellious as a subordinate, and not quarrelsome when with peers.
" Being arrogant as a superior leads to destruction; being rebellious as a subordinate leads to punishment; being quarrelsome when with peers leads to fights.
" If these action are not rejected, then even though one provides for one's parents so sumptuously as to serve the meat of three animals( beef, pork ,and mutton) daily, one is still unfilial."
