How could it even be spoken of in the same breath as the luxury of Qin and Chu? Mencius said: 'If it accords with the Way, even Shun's receiving the world from Yao was not considered excessive.' (As for Shun, though he was lowly and humble, because he possessed virtue, Yao gave his two daughters to him as wives and abdicated the sovereign seat of the world and the four seas to him, yet this was not considered excessive.) > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.230](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2118.3.230) - [Next: 3.232](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2118.3.232) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2118.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2118~en-mt.3.231) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2118.3.231](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2118.3.231) · Pramāṇa
