《弟子规》的总纲出自《论语》：“弟子入则孝，出则弟，谨而信，泛爱众，而亲仁，行有余力，则以学文。”其所倡导的待人处事接物的基本行为规范，均源自周礼，多见于《礼记》及《论语》《孟子》等，几千年来深深影响着中国人的集体心理和人格特质，在时下仍具有其不可替代的现实价值。 儒家历来主张以修身为本，而践行孝悌之道，又是本中之本。“孝悌”二字，实为儒家学问“从入门到精通”自始至终都离不开的必修课。也可以说， 的成就、 圆满的境界往往蕴藏在 基础的训练、 根本的修为中。故在主张“首孝悌”的《弟子规》中，很多内容，事实上都是言简而意深，直通大道之本源。 本书根据作者所作25讲《弟子规》讲座的录音整理而成。讲授的依据，来自作者当年在其恩师屈三元先生门下学习时所受亲炙教诲，所举案例亦多为几十年自修与

宋代的社会繁荣，为其文学艺术的发展提供了广阔的空间和有利条件。宋词成为和唐诗相提并论的中国古代文学的另一座高峰。宋代人填词成为时尚，“文人学子相聚，凡不能一道背育其诗词者，皆自惭形秽。”宋代大词人以苏轼、辛弃疾为代表的豪放派和李清照、柳永为代表的婉约派为著名。宋词韵律优美，意境幽远，意味深长，具有独特的魅力，甚至有人认为吟诵宋词或许可以使人灵秀。 宋代的画家对绘画艺术有了进一步的理解。宋代大文学家、画家苏轼（1037-1101）不仅留下了大量不朽的词作和画作，而且提出了“诗中有画、画中有诗”的主张，成为后来历代画家追求的境界。 本书精选部分宋词和宋画，并配以英文翻译，以期和更多不同语言文化背景的读者共享宋词与宋画之美。
