The True Meaning of the Saying, "All Goes Well if there is True Harmony in the Family."
This is a saying in the oriental teaching.
This is a good saying. When we talk about a home, of course it has people at the heart of the home. There are the grandparents, parents and then there are the children. That is not all. The house itself is a microcosm of all of creation. All things are gathered here.
When we think of "my home", we normally think of it as the place where my mother and father, wife and children are.
But my home is not just this. There would also be my grandparents, and the house itself and the yard. The surrounding environment harmonizes well with this microcosm of creation. This is essential for happiness.
When grandparents come into an environment that is not harmonized, they will not feel good. The sight of a grandfather and grandmother laughing with each other cannot be compared to the noisy laughter of a young couple.
Did you know that all things come together in harmony through the laughter of the grandfather and grandmother when they harmonize with each other?
The laughter of wrinkled grandparents is very dignified. The grandfather's laughter is deep and hearty. When he makes a gesture, his movements are slow but broad, high, deep and large.
The deep laughter of wrinkled grandparents is quite dignified.
You may not know this, but all things come together in harmony through the grandfather and grandmother's laughter as they harmonize with each other. The grandfather's laughter is deep and hearty. When he gestures, his movements are slow, but broad, high, deep and large.

Everything should be connected through the three stages of top, middle and bottom to bring about any harmony.
This explains why harmony does not come from a straight line which links two points on a horizontal level.
Whatever goes through two points is called a line, and two points cannot bring about the beauty of harmony. It needs to have a curve and bend.
There is only harmony when something goes through three points.
So, we have the grandfather, the father in the middle and then those who are underneath.
Normally, we think of a family as consisting of four generations. You have the grandfather and grandmother, father and mother, your own country and then your own sons and daughters.
There may be five generations in a family, but normally there are four - your grandfather, your father, your own couple and then your sons and daughters.
Because of this, we introduce the three stages: formation, growth and completion.
This teaching deals with living in harmony and declares, "All goes well if there is harmony in the family."
Why is this?
Because someone wanted to be poetic? No.
Harmony in the family means that four generations revolve around the united grandparents of top and bottom, east and west, north and south, front and back, and left and right.
We will all live together in the joy of laughter when this is achieved.
