What are the outstanding traditions of the Chinese nation that attach importance to spirit?

Answer: 1, which is reflected in the unique understanding of the relationship between material life and spiritual life. Ancient sages believed that the reason why people are different from animals lies in their moral and spiritual pursuit. Material life is necessary for people, but if you only indulge in material desires and can't extricate yourself, it is tantamount to an animal.

2. The Chinese nation's excellent tradition of advocating spirit is also manifested in attaching importance to the realm of life and ideal personality. There are different levels of human realm. For example, Confucianism said that the realm of life is not capped, but it should be guaranteed, that is, "see the sage Si Qi, see the sage and introspect". As for the ideal personality, Confucianism regards "gentleman" and "sage" as the ideal personality, while Taoism advocates "real person" and "supreme person" who lives between heaven and earth, while Liang Qichao, a modern enlightenment thinker, calls for the ideal personality of "new people".
