The thought of non-aggression is the application of the doctrine of universal love in dealing with state issues.The so-called “non-aggression” is to oppose the war of aggression.During the spring and autumn period and the warring states period,not only the powerful countries used their own power to launch wars of aggression,but also the superior men in the world blindly followed,and they did not know what was right,but believed that the United States.Mozi believed that the reason for the annexation and attack war in society was that people did not distinguish between the nature of war and “righteousness”and “unrighteousness”.If they knew“righteousness” they would not launch the war of aggression.Mozi did not deny all wars,but insisted on saving weak defenses and destroying the enemy.Helping the weak is an act of helping others.It is an act of extending a helping hand to the weak so that the weak can survive.At the same time,when the weak countries face the attack of the powerful countries,they should not only wait for the rescue of others,but also make active defense.It is a kind of action to fight for justice and save people from fire and water.Mozi’s non-offensive thoughts are not only reflected in national defense,but also reflect the thoughts of state-to-state exchanges,that is,the principle of mutual love and mutual benefit.Mozi lived in the era of frequent wars.At that time,the political etiquette collapsed and the music was bad.Various vassal states gradually changed their ways to become stronger.In terms of economic productivity reform,a large number of people were separated from agriculture and engaged in other trades,forming a new class.On the one hand,these new classes hoped to have a stable environment to satisfy their own production;on the other hand,they hoped that they would not suffer from wars,exploitation and oppression of others.In culture,people’s consciousness began to awaken,and learning in the government changed to learning in the people.Private learning arose,and people had the opportunity to learn knowledge.After learning the knowledge that he was born a civilian,mozi strongly opposed the war of aggression in the face of frequent wars and a society where people could not survive.As a representative of theemerging class,mozi put forward the idea of “universal love without attack” in order to gain the interests of his own class.The formation of the thought of “universal love without attack” has its unique theoretical origin.First of all,xia yu represented the influence of early culture on mozi.Mozi thought that the ancient holy king did not engage in other things,but only engaged in concurrently,so mozi inherited and developed concurrently thought.Secondly,the simple and honest regional culture of the song state and the suffering of war for years,the people’s desire for peace had an impact on mozi’s non-offensive thoughts.Thirdly,the influence of laozi’s selfless benevolence,non-action and anti-war thoughts on mozi.Finally,for the inheritance and development of Confucius’ s thought of love and the morality between states,mozi studied from Confucianism.However,due to different origins and different concerns,mozi’s thought gradually abandoned all kinds of red tape and became more practical.The community of Shared future for mankind has rich theoretical connotations such as loving peace,equality,respect and mutual benefit.This is highly consistent with mozi’s non-offensive thoughts,which include the pursuit of peace,the priority of righteousness,mutual benefit and mutual benefit.Therefore,in building a community with a Shared future for mankind,we need to adhere to mozi’s non-offensive philosophy of opposing war of aggression,putting justice first,putting people first,and pursuing mutual benefit and mutual love,so as to achieve world peace,protect the fundamental interests of the world’s people,and meet their aspirations for a better life.
