Second, an overview of China's traditional virtues

During thousands of years of historical development, the Chinese nation has formed a long and fine tradition. These fine virtues are rich in connotation and profound, which are an inseparable part of Chinese life, an important spiritual wealth for the development of human civilization and a rich source for us to build socialist morality. These excellent traditional virtues can be summarized in the following aspects.

(1) Set up a lofty ideal and strive to realize it.

China culture places special emphasis on ideals and realms, which are ideals. Confucianism has designed the ideals of "harmony between man and nature", "inner sage and outer king" and "the world is public" for the Chinese nation. Taoism has designed ideals such as "Taoism is natural", "small country with few people" and "no monarch". Mohism suggested that factories should "love and not attack" and "promote the benefits of the world and destroy the harm of the world".

After Qin and Han Dynasties, people with lofty ideals in China explained these ideals or put forward new ones in the process of striving for the independence, prosperity and prosperity of the Chinese nation. The Revolution of 1911 led by Dr. Sun Yat-sen, a great revolutionary forerunner, overthrew the autocratic rule of the Qing Dynasty, in order to realize China's ideal of "Great Harmony". He believes that his theory of "Three People's Principles" conforms to the ideal of great harmony.

Mao Zedong also appreciated the ideal of "Great Harmony". He called "Great Harmony in the World" the * * * doctrine, and strived for the realization of China's ideal of "Great Harmony" all his life. Everyone has his own aspirations, so we should set up lofty ideals and look forward to a beautiful realm.

(2) Strengthen self-cultivation and carry forward the virtues of being strict with yourself and being lenient with others.

Paying attention to personal cultivation is a remarkable feature of China culture. The important difference between China culture and western culture lies in its self-discipline and self-discipline. Confucius advocated: "A gentleman seeks for himself, while a villain seeks for others." This means that cultivated people are always strict with themselves, while uncultured people are very demanding of others.

Therefore, he also warned people: "Bowing is self-respect, but lightly blaming twenty people is far from complaining!" "Bowing to yourself" means doing more self-criticism and "lightly blaming others". That is, criticizing others less, making more self-criticism and blaming others less can reduce opposition and complaints. Ceng Zi, Confucius' favorite pupil, summed up Confucius' thought of being strict with himself and paying attention to physical and mental cultivation as the motto guiding life: "Three rescues a day: Are you unfaithful to others?"

Don't believe in making friends? Can't you pass it on? When discussing the cultural differences between China and the West, Liang Shuming said: China culture uses kung fu internally (emphasizing self-cultivation), while western culture uses kung fu externally (advocating cognitive nature). Paying attention to life accomplishment is not only the characteristic of China culture, but also the virtue of the Chinese nation. Only by cultivating self-cultivation and improving their own quality can ordinary people succeed in their careers. China culture always puts life and self-cultivation first.
