Classic of China's Cultural Wisdom

Classic model essay on wisdom of Chinese studies

Introduction: Sinology is the essence of China's traditional culture, which has great influence on China's politics, economy, military and other aspects, and plays an important role in inheriting civilization, enhancing national cohesion and reviving the Chinese nation. The following is the relevant information I have compiled and shared about reading the wisdom classics of Chinese studies, hoping to help you.

Chapter 1: The wisdom of Chinese classics is the essence of the splendid culture of the Chinese nation for 5,000 years, and it is the treasure of the fertile soil of China. Throughout the ages, classic famous sentences have moistened the hearts of China people from generation to generation. Where are the descendants of China people? Classic? Born in the cradle, where are China's children? Famous sentence? Grow up in chanting. In the long history, as the main carrier of Chinese civilization, Sinology, like a tough bond, connects all kinds of pearls of Chinese civilization and shows the spirit of the Chinese nation. Its excellent ideological culture transcends the boundaries of time and space, blends into the world culture and modern civilization, and becomes the crystallization of human civilization and wisdom that has spread through the ages and spread all over the world.

The classics of Chinese studies have their own world, allowing thoughts to gallop freely; The thought of Chinese studies makes people beautiful and achieves a fresh and noble life. Apply the essence of Chinese studies to work and life practice, guide their outlook on life and values, and play a role in self-cultivation. Among China's voluminous classic works, The Analects of Confucius always shines with special light. For more than two thousand years, in The Analects? Kind? The core idea is always infiltrated? If you are rich, you will help the world, but if you are poor, you will be immune to it. It is admired and yearned for by people of different periods and ages. I always thought Confucius was an ancient sage far away from me. The Analects of Confucius is a historical and cultural heritage that scholars have only studied. I never thought it would be so close to us. Professor Yu Dan closely followed the spiritual confusion faced by human beings in the 2nd/kloc-0th century, combined with his profound classic cultivation, and traveled through just visiting for two thousand years, and realized the ordinary wisdom of classics. With the delicate feelings peculiar to women, he interpreted the Analects of Confucius from seven aspects: Chinese world outlook, spiritual outlook, ways of dealing with life, ways of making friends, ways of personality cultivation, ideals and outlook on life, and interpreted wisdom with classics. After reading Yu Dan's understanding of The Analects, I deeply felt the peace and approachability of Confucius, a saint, and his simple and warm attitude towards life from time to time. When I first read The Analects of Confucius, I felt a little confused, because the idea of being poor and enjoying happiness in the book seems quite frustrating now. Read carefully and gradually understand its profound meaning. Today is an era of rapid economic development and unprecedented personality, and it is also an era of fierce competition and materialistic desire. People are facing the pressure from work and life. The fiercer the competition, the more they need to adjust their mentality and relationship with others. The Analects of Confucius is full of words, which gently blows away the dust in your heart and teaches you the truth of being a man. After all, this is not a person's world. No matter how smart and capable a person is, it is difficult to achieve anything without the help of others. A person is just a leaf? A boat? , and both can be carried? A boat? Can you reply? A boat? Water!

I can walk in the jungle of classic Chinese studies and Ling Bo is in the long river of classic Chinese studies; I can pick words and phrases in the treasure house of Chinese classics and construct the most beautiful poverty alleviation poems in my heart; You can paint a picture of mountains and rivers and laughter with the most beautiful brush in your heart; ,? It's a long way to go, Xiu Yuan, Xiu Yuan. I'll go up and down, okay? .

Chapter two: Understanding of the wisdom classics of Chinese studies Nowadays, advocating Chinese studies education has aroused widespread concern in schools and society at all levels, and there has been a craze for learning Chinese studies. It has also spread abroad through Confucius Institutes established around the world. Sinology originally refers to universities established by the state, such as imperial academy and imperial academy. Later, it evolved into a science called Chinese studies. In modern times, ancient literature and art are called Chinese studies. Confucianism and philosophy run through and dominate China culture, while the pre-Qin philosophers, Taoism and Buddhism are in a subordinate position. Sinology is the soul of China people and the foundation of Chinese civilization. China's 5,000-year history of civilization, a treasure left to the Chinese nation by big waves and sand scouring, has been passed down from generation to generation and is brilliant to this day.

Among the voluminous ancient books of Chinese civilization, the China classic translated and read most abroad is Lao Zi's Tao Te Ching. Almost all Chinese families in Germany have a copy of Tao Te Ching. In Japan, Tao Te Ching is the desk collection of enterprise managers; An American publishing company bought the English copyright of Tao Te Ching with only 5,000 words for $654.38 +0.3 million. It can be seen that the Tao Te Ching has great charm and wide influence.

Lu Xun said:? I don't know China culture without reading Laozi. ? In history, Confucius once asked Laozi to learn from him, which shows that Laozi had a prominent position and far-reaching influence at that time. The Tao Te Ching is like a sweet spring. Once drunk, it will benefit you for life.

Lao Tzu (600 BC? 470 BC? ), surnamed Li Minger, the word Bo Yang, also known as (dān). China was a thinker in the Spring and Autumn Period, the ancestor of Taoism, and a native of Chuguoku County. According to legend, Laozi was born with white eyebrows and white beard, so he was called Laozi. He used to be the keeper of the Tibetan room in the Zhou Dynasty, and he wrote the Tao Te Ching with 5,000 words. Tao Te Ching, also known as Tao Te Ching, Lao Zi and Five Thousand Words, is divided into two parts, the first part is Tao Te Ching and the second part is Tao Te Ching. Originally, the moral classics came first and the Taoist classics came last, regardless of chapters. Later, it was changed to the former Tao Jing and the later Dejing, which was divided into 8 1 chapters. Tao Te Ching is the first philosophical work in the history of China, and it is a classic of self-cultivation in the ancient East. Tao Jing tells the origin of the universe and reveals the mystery of the change of everything in the world. "Virtue Classic" talks about the general plan of self-cultivation and handling affairs. Tao Jing and The Classic of Virtue cover many subjects such as philosophy, politics and ethics. The content is profound, a hundred schools of thought contend and all-encompassing, and it has become a treasure house of philosophical wisdom. It is the main idea to advocate natural inaction and resignation, and to ask people to have no desire, little wisdom and soft heart.

Laozi believes that the origin of the world is nothingness, and only nothingness can be called the principle of Tao. Sages do nothing, but teach without words? (Chapter 2 of Tao Te Ching) It means that saints treat the world with inaction, practice moral education and don't give orders. Advocate? Without Shang Xian, the people will not dispute; Things that are neither expensive nor rare make ordinary people afraid to steal. ? (Chapter III) Those who don't advocate sages make people strive for fame and fortune; Do not pay attention to rare treasures, so that people do not become thieves. ? Absolute holiness and wisdom benefit the people a hundred times; Desperate, the people are filial? (Chapter 19). Put an end to the so-called saints and abandon the wisdom that is not conducive to the people; People can get a hundredfold benefit. Only by putting an end to the so-called kindness and abandoning the so-called morality can the people return to filial piety and kindness. Zhuangzi advocates that the monarch wants nothing, does nothing and is quiet. ? Without desire, the world is full, without action, everything changes, and peace is determined by the people. ? Zhuangzi accepted and developed Laozi's philosophy. Lao Tzu advocates? Doing nothing? That is, inaction; Zhuangzi advocated that people's mind should not be dragged down by external things, and that people should abandon fame and fortune. The thought of governing by doing nothing had a far-reaching influence in ancient China. The theoretical basis of Huang Lao's study in the early Han Dynasty was the inaction thought of Taoism in the pre-Qin period, which adapted to the situation of people's hearts after the turmoil in the late Qin Dynasty, emphasized quietism, and advocated relaxing and not interfering with people's political and economic life, so as to stabilize people's hearts and develop social production. It can be seen that the idea of governing by doing nothing played a positive role at that time. In the early years of Tang and Song Dynasties, the rulers also used the idea of inaction to reconcile and deal with social contradictions at that time, and achieved certain results. Metaphysics scholars in Wei and Jin Dynasties, by preaching inaction, led people to be passive, reclusive, indifferent and inaction, which had a negative impact on society.

Tao Te Ching has been translated by many scholars and experts, and even several emperors are scrambling to write annotations. It can be seen that Laozi's Tao Te Ching is very popular in the history of China's cultural development. The Tao Te Ching is concise and poetic. About the opening of Tao Jing? Tao? What is the opening statement of the Classic of Virtue? De? , showing the core issues of Tao Te Ching.

The first chapter of Tao Te Ching (the opening of Tao Te Ching)? Tao can be said; The name can be named. It's very famous. Nothing, the beginning of the world; Yes, the mother of all things. Therefore, there is often nothing and I want to see its wonders; I often want to see (Ji? O). Both of them have different names, the same mystery and the same door to all miracles. ? At the beginning? Tao? ,? Is it extraordinary that Tao can be Tao? , initially revealed? Tao? The connotation of Tao Te Ching is one of the core issues. ? Is it extraordinary that Tao can be Tao? That is, Tao can be expressed in words, but it is not an eternal Tao. (here? No? Namely. No? ,? Often? This is eternity. In my opinion, in times of chaos? Tao? It already exists in the universe, and chaos begins to open? Tao? It exists in all things, and shows its own function, which runs through the whole process of its emergence, growth, development and expansion, until it dies, and becomes the natural law of the objective world, regardless of human will. Avenue is invisible? . ? Nothing, the beginning of the world; Yes, the mother of all things? . You know? Avenue? You have to understand? Nothing? With what? what's up Meaning of. None, representing the state before the initial opening of chaos; Yes, it represents the state in which chaos begins to open and everything breeds. Out of nothing, there is the mother of all things. So, often observe? Tao? Unknown and invisible mystery; Observe often? Tao? A well-known tangible clue. Wonderful and easy (easy to be bounded, meaning clues, eyebrows, clues or veins) have the same origin but different names, and * * * changes for the change of the avenue, which is the secret way to understand everything in the universe.

The opening of Tao Te Ching (Chapter 38 of Tao Te Ching): Virtue is not virtue, but virtue; Virtue without virtue is virtue without virtue. Virtue is inaction (inaction). Virtue has merit. Ren Shang didn't think of this, ShangYi thought of it. If you don't respond to the gift, you will throw it away. So, you lose your virtue, you lose your virtue, then you lose your benevolence, then you lose your righteousness, then you lose your righteousness. He who is polite to his husband is the first to be faithful. What was known before is the beginning of ignorance. Therefore, the gentleman is thick but not thin, practical, and not in China, so he went elsewhere to take this. ?

Virtue, that is, excellent moral character, is the real virtue if people with virtue do not take virtue as virtue. Moral inferiority is indeed moral inferiority. People with poor moral character want to be virtuous, but they can't achieve it. People with high moral character, let nature take its course and act unintentionally; People with poor moral character should do something, but they can't. First-class benevolent people have selfless heart, and first-class loyal ministers often have selfish heart. If the courtesy giver doesn't get a response, he will raise his arm and force people to obey. Therefore, there is virtue after the loss of Tao, benevolence after the loss of virtue, righteousness after the loss of benevolence, and courtesy after the loss of righteousness. This gift is a symbol of loyalty and lightness, and it is the chief culprit of social unrest. Prophet is the void of Tao and the beginning of ignorance. A gentleman is sincere but not frivolous, practical but not flashy, abandoning thin and flashy, and adopting thick and practical.

What Lao Tzu has been advocating and pursuing? Governing by doing nothing? But he is not opposed to promising governance. Because after losing the social avenue and virtue (that is? Governing by doing nothing? ), have to maintain and restore social order through promising. So he decided? Tao and virtue? Doing nothing; However, after the loss of Tao, there must be virtue, benevolence, righteousness and courtesy, which is promising.

Laozi's thought permeates all aspects of our lives. He warned people? Must we do everything in the world? Chapter 63 means that if you want to achieve great things, you have to start from the little things around you. ? Broken wood is born in the end; Nine-story platform, starting with tired soil; A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. ? Chapter 64 These comparative sentences tell people a truth. You can't accomplish great things overnight, but you must have perseverance.

Talented people are frustrated and have nowhere to display their personal abilities and wisdom. When using Lao zi? Late bloomer? (Chapter 4 1) Push yourself, don't be discouraged, and you will succeed. Don't be confused by power and money when your career is in full swing, right? Retire after work? (Chapter 9), don't be stubborn, if you fall into ruin, it will be too late to regret. ? The contented are rich? (Chapter 33) That is to say, contented people always have fun, which is the truest.

A man is awesome outside, but in front of a weak wife? Bow and scrape? Because? Weak is better than strong? (Chapter 36). Tai Ji Chuan looks very soft. Once a Tai Chi master punches, even the big fellow will fall to the ground.

? Misfortune depends on happiness, and happiness depends on misfortune? (Chapter 28). When disaster comes, happiness depends on it; When there is happiness, disaster lurks in it. The wisdom of life given by Laozi is to let people learn to understand things dialectically, face the disasters and blessings in life optimistically, let nature take its course and grasp the ability to survive.

? The French Open is long, but not leaking? , from Lao zi? Skynet is long, but not leaking? Chapter 72. There are all kinds of crimes around people's lives, and they have been punished as they should. However, there are still fugitives who want to escape legal sanctions. Skynet is long, sparse but not leaking, and will not miss criminals. It must be remembered that nature is the fairest, and what goes around comes around. It's not that we don't report it, but that it's not time.

In Laozi's Tao Te Ching, some idioms are enlightening. Like what? Forever and ever? Describe love forever, as long as heaven and earth exist; ? Retire after work? (renamed? Retire after success? ), a successful career, when you retire from your post, don't wait until it is too late; ? If you're surprised? Fear because of being favored or humiliated. With what? No shame? The opposite meaning; ? Do what you want? (renamed? Do as I say. 、? Life is listening? ), describing absolute obedience; ? Do you know it's not dangerous? People who know enough will not be in danger; ? Out of thin air? (renamed? Out of thin air? ), no facts, fabricated out of thin air; ? Risking your life? From birth to death. Now it means risking one's life and being in danger of death at any time; ? Blessed or unlucky? (renamed? Lucky or unlucky? ), that is, blessings depend on each other, transform each other, and cause and effect each other; ? Good for evil? (renamed? Good for evil? ) means not only to forget old scores, but to give favors. It can be seen that these idioms have long been integrated into people's lives, although? I don't know about daily use? However, people do constantly use Laozi's thoughts and wisdom in their survival practice.

The ancients said:? Be quiet and then you can be safe, safe and then you can decide, decide and then you can think, think and then you can think and then you can get it. ? People are here? Quiet, safe, calm, thinking, worrying? What should we do in our daily life? To the virtual pole, keep quiet? (Chapter 16), strive to make the mind reach the extreme state of nothingness, and stick to peace to achieve loyalty and sincerity. Anze? Its security is easy to keep, but not easy to seek? (Chapter 64) We can control the stable situation, and it is easy to plan things without warning. Settings for? If you don't want to be quiet, the world will decide? (Chapter 37), that is, without desire, there is inaction, and everything in the world is naturally stable.

Learn from Lao Tzu? Avenue? Thinking wisdom, understand? Suntech? The virtue of practicing in the body is true; Repairing at home has more virtues; The virtues cultivated in the countryside are long-lasting; If cultivated in the state, its virtue is rich; It is a virtue to cultivate it in the world. ? Chapter 54: Think deeply and think far, distinguish right from wrong with a philosophical mind, and exercise restraint? Friedrich Hirth? Germinate, reduce recklessness, eliminate selfish desires, and not be fooled by any environment or others. Being kind to life can not only realize the ideal of achieving career, but also make life better and happier.
