禮運篇大同章

禮運篇大同章 ～孔子～

禮運篇大同章 大道之行也，天下為公；選賢與能講信修睦。故人不獨親其親，不獨子其子；使老有所終，壯有所用，幼有所長，矜、寡、孤、獨、廢疾者皆有所養。男有分，女有歸。貨惡其棄於地也，不必藏於己；力惡其不出於身也，不必為己。是故謀閉而不興，盜竊亂賊而不作；故外戶而不閉。是謂大同。

禮運篇大同章 大道之行也，天下為公；選賢與能講信修睦。當「大道」開始推行的時候，國家是民主的，選拔賢能，講究誠信並修習和睦。 “When the Great Principle prevails, the world is a Commonwealth in which rulers are selected according to their wisdom and ability. Mutual confidence is promoted and good neighborliness cultivated.

禮運篇大同章 故人不獨親其親，不獨子其子；所以大家不只是侍奉自己的父母，也不只是照顧自己的子女； Hence, men do not regard as parents only their own parents, nor do they treat as children only their own children.

禮運篇大同章 使老有所終，壯有所用，幼有所長，努力使得老人安享晚年，壯年人能發揮長才，幼童可以適當成長， Provision is secured for the aged till death, employment for the able-bodied, and the mean of growing up for the young.

禮運篇大同章 矜、寡、孤、獨、廢疾者皆有所養。鰥夫、寡婦、孤兒、老人、殘障及病患都能受到照顧； Helpless widows and widowers, orphans and the lonely, as well as the sick and the disable, are well cared for.

禮運篇大同章 男有分，女有歸。男人都有正當的職業，女人都能嫁個好丈夫。 Men have their respective occupations and women their homes.

禮運篇大同章 貨惡其棄於地也，不必藏於己；財貨，大家既然不希望它過多而被人丟棄形成浪費，那就不要貪心佔為己有； They do not like to see wealth lying idle, yet they do not keep it for their own gratification.

禮運篇大同章 力惡其不出於身也，不必為己。勞力，既然厭惡不能讓自己發揮所長，那就不必要求歸於自己驅使； They despise indolence, yet they do not use their energies for energies for their own benefit.

禮運篇大同章 是故謀閉而不興，盜竊亂賊而不作；故外戶而不閉。這樣就不會形成奸巧的謀略，也沒有搶劫偷東西而為非作歹的人，所以大門都不用關。 In this way, selfish scheming are repressed, and robbers, thieves and other lawless men no longer exist, and there is no need for people to shut their outers.

禮運篇大同章 是謂大同。這就叫做「大同」！ This is called the Great Harmony (DA TONG)."

禮運篇大同章 大道之行也，天下為公；選賢與能講信修睦。故人不獨親其親，不獨子其子；使老有所終，壯有所用，幼有所長，矜、寡、孤、獨、廢疾者皆有所養。男有分，女有歸。貨惡其棄於地也，不必藏於己；力惡其不出於身也，不必為己。是故謀閉而不興，盜竊亂賊而不作；故外戶而不閉。是謂大同。
