What is the basic spirit of China traditional culture?

1, the basic spirit includes vigorous and promising, self-improvement, people-oriented spirit, harmony between man and nature, and the spirit of rule by courtesy. Confucian culture in China's traditional culture advocates "making progress actively and making contributions"; Taoist culture advocates "let nature take its course and strive for self-improvement"; Buddhist culture advocates "love all sentient beings and selfless dedication".

2. Vigorous and enterprising, constantly striving for self-improvement: China's traditional culture has been permeated with a series of complementary categories of opposites, such as rigidity, flexibility, ambition and inaction, and has a profound dialectical spirit.

3. Humanistic spirit: Humanistic spirit is one of the basic spirits of China traditional culture, which is different from the western classical spirit based on God and the modern western pursuit of individual freedom and democratic values.

4. Harmony between man and nature: Harmony between man and nature is an important idea put forward in the development of China's traditional culture. This thought holds that the development of nature and human development are interactive, and people should adjust and standardize their words and deeds according to the changes in nature.

5. The spirit of rule by courtesy: China traditional culture not only carries out the humanistic spirit, but also permeates a spirit of rule by courtesy. As a social ideal, the spirit of rule by courtesy is essentially the emphasis and persistence of social order.
