Chapter 2903 Class
Sokka and Jay are in opposition. As the prince of Antarctica, Soka has shown the level of a prince. He believes that war is not only for his own interests, but for justice.
One's own interests are not the interests of others. It is impossible to unite others just for one's own interests. To unite others, we must maintain the interests of everyone, and even sacrifice our own interests to prioritize others. To do this, we need a distribution relationship that is higher than interests, that is, justice. We must use the right way to defeat the unrighteous, and we must show the difference between ourselves and the enemy.
The distribution relationship of the Fire Nation is to prioritize ourselves, so they expand and rob everywhere to satisfy themselves. If Soka and his people are the same as the Fire Nation, how can we unite everyone? How can we make everyone believe that the Avatar attacks the Fire Nation for everyone, not for his own interests?
Although the Avatar is a supernatural power, he is also a human being with seven emotions and six desires. Who knows if he will fight the Fire Nation for himself? If the Avatar does the same as the Fire Nation, killing innocent people, then everyone will not believe that the Avatar can ensure their interests.
Jay is just standing from the perspective of the victim, while Soka is standing from the perspective of the leader.
Duran is jumping left and right, because from their perspective, they are actually not wrong. Victims must take revenge and complain, while leaders must be far-sighted and fight the unjust with the just.
No one is wrong, so Duran will naturally be different from time to time.
Sokka's words were deafening, and also gave Jay a new perspective. Jay never thought about the overall strategic issues of the Fire Nation. He only thought about the tactics of the local battlefield and only targeted a specific enemy, without considering the trend and people's hearts in the world.
People's hearts are like water, and people's movements are like smoke. It is not a simple thing to unite everyone. Everyone has different needs. To unite everyone together, we can only use justice, not a specific interest. We must clarify everyone's obligations and rights, let everyone get the corresponding position, and let everyone feel that their interests are reasonable and just, so that everyone can feel at ease. Hatred cannot do this.
For example, the land of Jay's hometown is naturally very important to Jay and his companions, but it may not be cared about by others. So Jay can't let others help him, and his land is not attractive.
The Avatar shows noble character, sympathy for the civilians of the Fire Nation, and hatred for the tyrants of the Fire Nation, which can make people believe that this Avatar is a serious Avatar that can ensure their own interests. After helping the Avatar defeat the Fire Nation, everyone can live in peace without worrying that the Avatar will become another Fire King.
Even the people of the Fire Nation can trust the Avatar and don't have to resist to the end, because the Avatar also cares about their interests and can prevent counterattacks.
Jay's mind is a little confused because it is the first time to think about these things.
Sokka stared at Duran, who had no principles, and felt that this kind of adult was really annoying. He hoped that there would be fewer adults like Duran.
"So do you want to be a trainer, or not?" Duran changed the subject and asked Sokka's decision.
"Are you the teacher of the trainer?" Sokka asked.
"Yes." Duran gave the other party a big smile.
In Sokka's opinion, this smile is simply poisonous, but he thought of Toph, and looked at Jay in front of him, and had to admit that Duran has real skills. He has indeed mastered the power that ordinary people can't imagine, and his education can really help others improve their strength.
"You taught Toph the 'realm of supernatural power' before, and now Toph is teaching my sister, and it is very likely that this knowledge will spread. Haven't you considered that one day bad people will learn this knowledge?" Sokka asked. This question is serious and he has been thinking about it.
"What are you worried about? You might as well say it directly."
"I'm worried that if a large number of people who master the 'realm of supernatural power' appear, a war will eventually break out." Sokka said: "Supernatural power is very powerful and extremely destructive. Many people will die. Supernatural power war, just think about it, it's scary." He has seen An enter the supernatural power realm. An's eyes are shining, and he controls the four elements at the same time, just like a moving tornado. Any building is vulnerable in front of him. An is still in an incomplete supernatural power state and cannot last long. If a group of mature supernatural powers really fight, the scene will be terrible.
"So they are worried that too many magical powers will lead to wars and cause humanity to enter the Dark Ages?" Duran said it was possible: "But even if there are no magical powers, humanity will still enter the Dark Ages. On the contrary, if there are magical powers and the power of the magical powers is used for production, then humanity can stay in the Light Age forever."
Sokka said what Light Age and Dark Age? I don't understand it at all.
Durran explained the two eras. The God of Light and the God of Darkness fight each other about once every ten thousand years. If the God of Light wins, it is the Light Age, and if he loses, it is the Dark Age. In the Light Age, everyone can develop with peace of mind, and in the Dark Age, everyone attacks each other.
"Ah? Then how can the victory or defeat of the God of Light and the God of Darkness be determined? How can they decide light and darkness? Are our wars and peace controlled by the gods?" Sokka said that shouldn't wars be determined by human nature and resources? How can it be related to gods?
I can't understand at all what the changes in the human world have to do with gods.
"This question is very complicated. Gods and the objective world influence each other. What humans do can affect the power of light and darkness, and the results of the battle between light and darkness in turn affect humans."
"Without darkness, will humans not fight?" Sokka said speechlessly.
"Fight, it should be said that it is because there is darkness in everyone's heart, so the God of Darkness can only be sealed and cannot be eliminated. Conversely, the God of Light is also the same and cannot be eliminated. It is because there was darkness in people's hearts first, and then there was the God of Darkness. But if the God of Darkness becomes powerful, it can expand the darkness in people's hearts and in turn affect humans."
"I don't understand." What is mutual influence and mutual existence.
"In fact, it is the animality and human nature in people's hearts. In the era of light, human nature dominates, and in the era of darkness, animality dominates. In short, gods can control humans, and humans also influence gods. This is also the meaning of trainers. Through the cooperation between humans and divine beasts, divine beasts lend power to humans, and humans help divine beasts evolve." Duran said.
If you don't understand, then don't understand. Sokka should solve the current problem first. The gods are too far away from him. He said: "If you teach, then I won't learn." Staying away from Duran is good for physical and mental health. For the sake of his own health, he still rejected the temptation of power.
"It's still a pity." Duran expressed regret.
Sokka left, and he went back to tell Avatar that he had met Duran. And Jie was still thinking. For him, Sokka's statement was too complicated, and he needed time. And the prince also returned to the teahouse and told Uncle Wang that Avatar and them were here.
Uncle Wang was not in a hurry at all, just come: "Eternal City is so big, it is not necessarily possible to meet."
"But I was almost discovered by them just now." The prince said speechlessly, not that he could not meet, but that he was about to meet.
Uncle Wang still said calmly: "Then let's talk about it when we meet. Meeting Avatar is much safer than meeting Azula." "And now Eternal City may not welcome Avatar. The situation in Eternal City is very complicated, and the internal struggle is very fierce. For some people, Avatar coming to Eternal City at this time is a thorn in the eye."
The prince didn't quite understand, because he felt that Avatar was helping the Earth Kingdom to fight back against the Fire Kingdom. How could the people of the Earth Kingdom not welcome him? He still didn't understand the power struggle too well. The interests of the country are not his own interests. The two are contradictory. He takes himself first. There are a group of people in the Earth Kingdom who take themselves first.
