踐行仁德取決于自己?？鬃釉谙虻茏又v解仁德之義時(shí)，提出了“為仁由己”的觀(guān)念?？鬃訌?qiáng)調(diào)，仁德的實(shí)現(xiàn)并不依賴(lài)于外在的規(guī)范。雖然仁德要求人們克制自己的言行以符合禮的要求，但對(duì)仁德的踐行根本上還是取決于人們自身對(duì)仁德的認(rèn)同與追求，并自覺(jué)地按照仁德的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)行事。
When explaining benevolence and virtue to his disciples, Confucius put forward the concept that "one should readily practice benevolence and virtue." He stressed that the accomplishment of benevolence and virtue was not driven by external norms. Rather, one should restrain himself and follow the right conduct. This means one should believe in benevolence and virtue and willingly act in compliance with them.
