Liao-Fan's Four Lessons (Chinese: 了凡四訓) is a book written by Yuan Liaofan (Chinese: 袁了凡; 1533–1606), was a Chinese official during the Ming Dynasty, born in present-day Wujiang County, Jiangsu Province. Yuan wrote the book to teach his son, Yuan Tian-Chi. The principal idea behind these lessons is that destiny can be changed through proper cultivation of kindness and humility. Thus, one should not be bound by fate, but by one's own actions. The book, still in circulation after more than 400 years, is said to be a useful foundation in learning both Confucianism and Buddhism.

  • 『陰騭録』（いんしつろく）は、中国明代の呉江の人で、嘉靖年間から万暦年間を生き、74歳で亡くなった袁了凡（えん りょうぼん）が著した書籍。善書の一種であり、『了凡四訓』とも呼ばれる。自己の宿命観を乗り越えて、自分から運命を創造してゆくことを悟った体験を書き記した書物である。 “陰騭”という語は、『書経』洪範篇にある、「王（周の武王）箕子（重臣の名）を訪ふ、すなはち言ひて曰く、『ああ箕子、これ天、陰に下民を騭（さだ）め、その居を相協（しょうきょう）す』」（意味：天は冥々の中に生民の住むべきところを定め、その住居をする大地をもととのえて下さる）という言葉に由来している。 (ja)

  • Liao-Fan's Four Lessons (Chinese: 了凡四訓) is a book written by Yuan Liaofan (Chinese: 袁了凡; 1533–1606), was a Chinese official during the Ming Dynasty, born in present-day Wujiang County, Jiangsu Province. Yuan wrote the book to teach his son, Yuan Tian-Chi. The principal idea behind these lessons is that destiny can be changed through proper cultivation of kindness and humility. Thus, one should not be bound by fate, but by one's own actions. Yuan Liaofan was told by a Taoist monk surnamed Kong that he would only live to the age of 53 and have no son. At first, he disregarded this monk's words as farcical nonsense, but as Kong's other predictions began to occur with great accuracy, he then proactively made an effort to rewrite his fate. In relating his own life experience in changing destiny, Yuan, at the age of 69, wrote and taught these four lessons to his son. The first lesson shows how to create destiny. The second lesson explains the ways to reform. The third reveals the ways to cultivate kindness and the fourth discloses the benefits of the virtue of humility. The book, still in circulation after more than 400 years, is said to be a useful foundation in learning both Confucianism and Buddhism. (en)
