和而不流 Living in Harmony with Others Without Losing Moral Ground
和睦而不順從于流俗。早期儒家的《中庸》《荀子》等文獻中都提到“和而不流”的觀念。儒家倡導人與人之間有序、和睦的關(guān)系。但如果一味追求與人和睦，則容易出于人情關(guān)系的考慮而喪失對道德原則的堅守，以致同流合污。因此儒家強調(diào)要在保持和睦關(guān)系的同時，始終堅守道德原則。
This concept of living in harmony with others without losing moral ground was mentioned in early Confucian classics such as The Doctrine of the Mean and Xunzi. Confucianism believed that interpersonal relations should be in proper order and harmonious. But it was concerned that if one only pursues harmony, desire to foster personal ties can easily lead to a failure to abide by the moral code and to the loss of moral ground. Confucianism therefore emphasized the importance of abiding by one's moral standard while maintaining harmonious relations with others.

◎夫聲樂之入人也深，其化人也速，故先王謹為之文。樂中平則民和而不流，樂肅莊則民齊而不亂。（《荀子·樂論》）
音樂對人的影響很深，感化人的速度也很快，因此先王謹慎地創(chuàng)制樂章。音樂中正平和，則民眾和睦而不順從于流俗；音樂肅穆莊嚴，則民眾整齊劃一而不混亂。
Music exerts a profound impact on people and rapidly transforms them. This is why past kings were very careful when setting out rules of musical composition. If music is balanced and tranquil in tone, then people will live in harmony without losing moral ground; if music is solemn in tone, people will be in proper order and not be unruly in behavior. (Xunzi)
