《了凡四训》 / Liaofan Sixun
《了凡四训》 / Liaofan Sixun enters the wiki through Hanji 161 part 4 as the traditional text attached to 袁了凡’s fate-change story. The host presents it as a practical manual for altering life direction through intention, virtue, good deeds, and faith-backed practice.
The source treats the text as a bridge between older self-cultivation and modern concerns about wealth, relationships, family, and career. It is said to have influenced 曾国藩 in修身 and official conduct, and 稻盛和夫 in self-cultivation and enterprise management.
The page also repairs the earlier 《命自我利》 branch. Hanji 161 part 1 preserved that title exactly as rendered in the source file; part 4 identifies the same opening story as Yuan Liaofan’s story and names 《了凡四训》, so the wiki treats 《命自我利》 as a source/transcript variant rather than a separate established text unless future sources prove otherwise.
