The Influence of China Traditional Culture on Reality

China's traditional culture is inextricably linked with modern society and life. China traditional culture emphasizes ethics and morality, advocates the supremacy of morality, and emphasizes the kindness of father, filial piety of son, friendship of brother and respect of younger brother. Among them, filial piety is the most basic, "the filial piety of all virtues comes first", and the promotion and evolution of filial piety have made Laozi's "old man and old man, young man and young man". Modern society still advocates respecting the old and loving the young, filial piety to parents and good neighborliness. Nowadays, the society requires the cultivation of talents with both ability and political integrity, putting morality first, which is also the concrete embodiment of traditional culture in the real society. The ancients said that "morality carries things", and Confucius said: "The Tao is the government, and the punishment is imposed by punishment, and the people are free from shame; Tao is virtuous, qi is polite, and shame is combined. " Laozi also believes that nature is doing nothing for virtue, and "all things respect Tao for virtue".

China traditional culture is the main part of China culture, and it is also a rich historical heritage handed down by ancestors. It not only records the history of the occurrence and evolution of the Chinese nation and China culture, but also, as a way of thinking, moral sentiment, values, codes of conduct and customs handed down from generation to generation, it has a strong inheritance, permeates the blood of everyone in China, restricts the behavior and way of thinking of people in China today, and provides historical and objective basis for the construction of new culture in China today, and has a far-reaching impact on the real society. Traditional culture is the cornerstone of strengthening national self-confidence, the foundation of building a good national psychology, the spiritual resource of enhancing the comprehensive strength of the country, and the important ideological source of pushing the world towards great integration. In particular, China's people-oriented thoughts and peace thoughts such as "emphasizing harmony" and "worshipping the middle way" in traditional culture are in the same strain as the world harmony thought represented by the Olympic spirit. China cultural spirit summarized by Zhang Zai, a scholar in the Northern Song Dynasty, is the ideological source of building a harmonious country and a harmonious world.
