I'm not getting anything out of this book. Bunch of mentions of people I don't know about, the comentary rarely helps only providing alternative translations, and his "wisdom" doesn't do anything for me: "Respect your parents", "follow the rites", "be a gentleman", all carried to the very extreme are not even allow to question your parents upto 3 years after their death. Why was this even turned into a religion?
