問明卷第六 - Asking About Seeing Clearly

English translation: Jeffrey S. Bullock [?] Library Resources
18 問明卷第... :
或問「活身」。曰:「明哲。」或曰:「童蒙則活,何乃明哲乎?」曰:「君子所貴,亦越用明保慎其身也。如庸行翳路,沖沖而活,君子不貴也。」
Asking About Seeing Clearly:...:
Someone asked about preserving one's life.
Yangzi said: It is a matter of illuminated wisdom.
The other said: If the young and unenlightened can preserve themselves, then how is it only a matter of illuminated wisdom?
Yangzi said: The junzi only values using his wisdom to preserve his life. If it means blundering in panic down a darkened road like a fool and somehow preserving his life, the junzi would not value it.
