You see "four mouths" and a "big man" (大) in the kanji for Vessel (器), right?
WRONG.That "Big Man" is actually an impostor.
The truth involves a bloody ancient ritual, a "missing dot," and a secret dog sacrifice. 🐶😱

Most students memorize this as "a big man with four mouths," but 3,000 years ago, the center character was actually 犬 (Dog)!.
We will explore:
The Impostor: How "Lazy Scribes" turned a Dog into a Big Man.
The Ritual: Why ancient people put dogs in containers for purification.
The Philosophy: Confucius says "Don't be a pot" – the difference between a Specialist and a Generalist.
