Lu Jiuyuan inherited Mencius's theory of"goodness of human nature"and believed that human's heart is"good",but that,due to the influence of temperament and customs,it is often covered and drowned,so people can not be"faultless".He also distinguished"evil"from"fault"from the perspective of the theory of"rapid avoidance",emphasizing that"evil"is related to people's determination,and"fault"is in daily practice.It is easy to accumulate"fault"into"evil"without change.Lu Jiuyuan believed that people have equal differences,and pointed out that the fault of the little man lies in"material desire",the fault of the vulgar man lies in"self-abandonment",and the fault of the scholar lies in"selfishness".His"correcting fault"efforts are basically aimed at"schola'rs fault".Lu Jiuyuan ad-vocated that the"correcting fault"of human beings must be"calm and fierce",that is,"blame oneself"first and then"blame goodness",which reflects the positive and negative approaches of"self-reliance"and"self-restraint".The two are not only different in importance from each other,but also complementary and indispensable to each other.
