What is the core of Confucian culture?

The core of Confucianism is the "five elements" of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and morality. As far as society is concerned, it is a moral and moral thought, that is, fraternity, kindness, fairness, justice, honesty and trustworthiness, innovation, civilization, harmony, democracy and the rule of law. It is the cornerstone of the core values of our society.

Confucianism is one of hundred schools of thought's theories in the pre-Qin period. Confucianism, also known as Confucianism or Confucianism, was founded by Confucius. At first, it refers to the master of ceremonies engaged in the funeral industry. Later, on this basis, a complete Confucian system was gradually formed, which became the mainstream of China's traditional culture and had far-reaching influence. It is the most influential school in China and the mainstream consciousness in ancient China.

During the Spring and Autumn Period of Confucius' life, the profound crisis caused by irreconcilable contradictions within society shook the authority of traditional culture, and the spirit of suspicion and criticism of traditional culture increased day by day. Even Confucius, the ancestor of Yao and Shun, had to inject the spirit of the times into his own ideological system.

This situation was particularly prominent during the Warring States Period of great changes, because people had vaguely seen the dawn of a new era in the ruins of the collapsed old world.
