What are the traditional virtues of our Chinese nation?

The traditional virtues of the Chinese nation refer to the excellent moral heritage that has been handed down from China's 5,000 years of history, which is influential, can be inherited, and has been continuously innovated and developed for the benefit of the next generation. It is summarized as the sum of the excellent moral qualities of the Chinese nation, the fine national spirit, the noble national spirit, the noble national sentiment and the good national habits. It symbolizes the "shape" and "soul" of the Chinese nation. It is also the crystallization of our people's practice of dealing with interpersonal relations, human-social relations and human-nature relations for more than two thousand years.

I. The national spirit of determination to serve the country.

The nation from ancient times advocate "rich and powerful, poor and lowly can not be moved, the mighty can not bend", "kill the body in order to be benevolent" national spirit. Patriotism as a national spirit, but also the core of the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation. Historically, China has been repeatedly invaded by foreign enemies, and when the country is broken, the family dies, which makes people's patriotic feelings strongly manifested and sublimated into the national sentiment and spirit of dedication, and thus appeared Yue Fei's "loyalty to the country", Wei Yuan's "learn from the barbarians to control the barbarians", and Sun Yat-sen's "drive out the Tartars", and "kill to be benevolent". Sun Yat-sen's "expel the Tartars and restore China". Patriotism has become a great force in pushing the Chinese nation forward.

Secondly, it advocates the establishment of harmonious and coordinated social and human relations.

The traditional virtues of the Chinese nation emphasize the establishment of a harmonious and coordinated human relations. They advocate "righteousness as the top", "unify profit with righteousness", "righteousness before profit", and require "thinking of righteousness after profit", "thinking of righteousness after profit", and "thinking of righteousness after profit". "Think of righteousness when you see profit" and "think of righteousness when you see gain". "Righteousness" refers to national interests and state interests, while "profit" refers to personal interests. It is emphasized that the interests of society take precedence over those of the individual, and that the individual has a moral obligation to the whole. It is a group spirit rooted in social culture, which in turn extends to the collectivist spirit of the whole nation and state.

Three, advocating the humanitarian spirit of "love".

Advocating the idea of "love of mankind", Mencius put forward the idea of "the king is light and the people are heavy". The idea that all people should respect, understand, care for, love and help others with the heart of "benevolence" is the most popular moral heritage among the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation.

Fourth, the promotion of basic moral concepts and codes of conduct.

The traditional virtues of the Chinese nation advocate the steps and modes of realizing the ideals of life: "cultivating one's moral character, keeping one's family in order, ruling the country, and leveling the world". This basic moral concept of living in the world is the basic requirement for human beings to carry out material production activities and their own survival and development, and it is also the minimum code of conduct for people to **** the same life. It correctly reflects the objective requirements of the development of human society, and it is an excellent legacy of the scientific nature of human social and moral relations.　Traditional morality generally plays a role in social stability, and lacks a place for it in times of drastic social changes, as the saying goes, "to rule the peace is still virtuous, and there is something to reward the function". As an old saying goes, "history is the mirror to know the rise and fall of a nation". History has proved that Confucian ethics often play a role in stabilizing society, easing conflicts and regulating interpersonal relationships in times of peace and prosperity. Contemporary China has entered a period of relatively stable and peaceful development, and social and political stability is the overall situation in China. In order to realize the grand goal of building a harmonious society, it is necessary for all aspects of society to work together in unity and cooperation and **** together. Among them, moral construction is undoubtedly an important spiritual cornerstone and a powerful hand in building a harmonious society. Whether a society can be harmonious, whether a country can be long-lasting peace and security, depends largely on the ideological and moral quality of all members of society, how the level of moral construction, is an important symbol of a harmonious socialist society.　Strengthening moral construction must undertake the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation. Morality has always been the unity of reality and history. Socialist morality is not water without a source or wood without a root, but is rooted in the fertile soil of national culture and is the continuation and sublimation of traditional virtues. To carry on the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation

To carry on the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation is to take the background of traditional Chinese morality as the basis, to carry on these contents of traditional morality that meet the requirements of the times and contribute to the coordinated development of the economy and society, and to promote them to all the people. Liang Qichao said in his book "New People's Sayings": "If China wants to build a new country, it must first have new people. The new people are different from the old Chinese people and must have several conditions, the most imperative being public morality." Driven by new economic, political and cultural changes, the moral structure of today's society has undergone significant changes, and some new areas and trends have emerged. To carry out moral construction, we should not only vigorously inherit and carry forward the excellent traditions of the moral culture of the Chinese nation, but also study and learn from the excellent results of moral construction in countries around the world, and also stimulate people's spirit of keeping pace with the times, pioneering and innovating, and creating new morals and concepts adapted to the requirements of the development of the socialist market economy. At the same time, we should also carry forward the good morals formed by the Party in the practice of leading the people in revolution, construction and reform. Chinese traditional virtues regulate and guide people's behavior and spiritual pursuits, and at the same time, they are constantly enriched and developed in the practice of people in the new era, we have to inherit and carry forward the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation, we must make it develop with the times.
