Why is the standing posture such that the left hand presses the right hand?

This behavior reflects the admiration for force.

The custom of pressing the left hand over the right hand in a standing posture originated from ancient cultural traditions. In ancient times, the right hand was mainly used to hold weapons and attack, and the left hand was the auxiliary hand.

The posture of the left hand pressing the right hand symbolizes control of force and the desire for peace.

This custom gradually evolved into a symbol of blessing and also reflected the emphasis on both civil and military skills in ancient culture.

The left palm represents culture, gentleness and knowledge, and the right fist represents force and strength.

The posture of the left hand pressing the right hand emphasizes an attitude of humility, eagerness for knowledge, as well as respect and listening to teachers, friends and seniors.
