The ju3 traditional character is corrected to 榘
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Editor: Both 矩 and 榘 are traditional characters, but it's 矩 that is normally used, while 榘 is a relatively rare variant.
Don't assume that the more complex form is the correct one.

中國天堂裡,神有神位,仙有仙籍,各有職司,循規蹈矩。
In the Chinese pantheon, there's a proper post for each god, and a place in the registry for every immortal. Each has its duties to perform and obligations to fulfill.
