Ancient culture abandonment, Yang which, abandon which?

The abandonment of traditional culture requires critical inheritance and innovation.

This is the motto of Han Yu, a great writer of the Tang Dynasty, who believed in learning from the past but not repeating it. In the face of the prevalence of Buddhism and Taoism and the decline of Confucianism in the middle and late Tang dynasties, Han Yu took the lead in raising the banner of reviving traditional Confucianism. However, his revival of Confucianism was by no means an unchanging adherence to the teachings of Confucius and Mencius, but rather an extraction of the "original way" that would help to reconstruct cultural beliefs. This "original way" came from tradition, but was not bound by it. Han Yu even took this opportunity to sweep away the culture of the Six Dynasties and advocated the idea that words have substance and reason. By pushing the boundaries of Confucianism, Han Yu made the traditional Confucianism shine with a new light. If Han Yu is to inherit the main, then to Huang Zongxi, Gu Yanwu and other representatives of the Ming and Qing thinkers is the creative development of Confucianism. Huang Zongxi shouted "the world is the main, the king is the guest", so that the Confucian people-oriented thinking with a democratic color; Gu Yanwu advocated "the world of application", sweeping the Song and Ming philosophies of the wind of the empty talk of righteousness. Critically inheriting and innovating, they gave new life and vitality to Confucianism.

The abandonment of traditional culture, not a blanket denial, wholesale abandonment.

Bathed in European style and American language, and stimulated by the national crisis, the radicals represented by Chen Duxiu and Hu Shi set off a vigorous New Culture Movement. This cultural change, which was of far-reaching significance to both the present and future generations, not only vigorously promoted Western science, democracy, equality and fraternity, but also advocated the total rejection of the traditional culture, which was dominated by Confucianism. Some radical scholars even threatened to "hit the Confucian store". It must be recognized that traditional culture at that time was indeed incompatible with Western democracy **** and out of place, but the indiscriminate wholesale rejection of traditional culture is tantamount to digging out the spiritual roots of the survival and development of the nation. Traditional culture is the spiritual bond that sustains the Chinese nation***s life, a bond that stretches over 5,000 years and cannot be cut off, nor can it be cut off.

Young traditional culture, need to be based on the present, the ancient for the present.

In vigorously advocating socialist core values today, the promotion of excellent traditional culture has gradually become a social **** knowledge. Traditional culture and reform and innovation as the core of the spirit of the times, a high degree of integration, will provide a strong spiritual impetus for the sustainable development of society. The traditional culture of "the use of etiquette, and the value of harmony" and the idea of harmony can provide a reference for the construction of a harmonious society. The moral concept of "Do not do unto others as you would not have them do unto you" can become a guideline for interpersonal relationships, and the concept of integrity of "no one can stand without trust" can lead to the standardization of the market order and the improvement of market rules. It can be said that the essence of traditional culture still has universal value in the 21st century. Carrying forward the excellent traditional culture, so that the ancient for the present, will certainly help in the construction of the socialist core value system, lifting the national great rejuvenation of the Chinese dream.

The promotion of traditional culture, into the present day, the rise of the soul of the nation, and the gathering of the light of China.
