Chinese traditional culture information

The traditional Chinese culture of self-improvement, virtue, concern for the people, virtue, harmony, and other ideas are of great significance to the current quality education. 1. The spirit of self-improvement and struggle In order to fight with heaven and earth, the Chinese people have never been willing to admit defeat easily, and have always been unyielding in their struggle. It is summarized in Yi Chuan as "Heaven walks with health, and a gentleman is unceasing in self-improvement". It is this spirit of self-improvement that supports the development of the Chinese nation and inspires the Chinese people to rise up in difficult times, to advance in adversity, and to never succumb to foreign oppression. Self-improvement is also embodied in the personality traits of self-reliance and self-respect, forming the national spirit of the Chinese people, who emphasize name and honor. As Confucius said, "The three armies can take away the marshal, but a man cannot take away his will." Mencius said: "the rich and powerful can not be obscene, the poor and lowly can not be moved, the mighty can not be bent, this three is called a great man." This makes people pursue an independent and perfect personality, this virtue has been passed down, become people for the country, for the nation to fight for the spiritual power, and promote the development of society. 2. The sense of worrying about the country and the people is an important part of the traditional culture of the Chinese nation. From Confucius's "Poetry can heart complaints" to Fan Zhongyan's "worry about the world first, after the world's happiness and joy", to Gu Yanwu's "the world's prosperity and demise, the responsibility of all" are branded with this sense of worry. From Yue Fei's "Laughing about drinking the blood of Huns" to Wen Tianxiang's "Leaving the heart of Dan to shine through the sweat of the green", this sense of worry is a kind of patriotic spirit. This sense of worry is a patriotic spirit, reflecting the noble feelings of the world for themselves. 3. One of the characteristics of the traditional culture of the Chinese nation is to tolerate all things with the virtue of generosity, that is, the virtue of carrying things. Such as the Warring States period, Duke Huan of Qi created the Jixi Palace of Learning gathered Confucianism, ink, Taoism, law, yin and yang, name, vertical and horizontal and other schools of thought, at the time in the Jixi Palace of Learning lectures and study tours masters Chunyi Kun, Zou Yan, Tian Pian, Mencius, Xunzi, and other scholars, known as the Hundred Schools of the Zi Zi. These masters in the Palace of free lectures, free debate, creating a hundred schools of thought in the history of Chinese culture, for the successor to the Chinese culture has made great contributions. It is generally believed that since Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty, China has formed a cultural situation in which Confucianism dominates, but in fact, the history of China's cultural development is mainly based on Confucianism and Taoism as the basic clue, and this clue itself reflects the compatibility of culture. 4. The noble style of moralizing people The great statesman of the Spring and Autumn Period, Guan Zhong, once linked morality with the survival of the country and raised propriety, righteousness, honesty and shame to the height of the country's rise and fall. Confucius, a great thinker, even interpreted benevolence in terms of propriety, believing that "benevolence" and "propriety" are mutual constraints and unity, and the unity of "benevolence" and "propriety" is virtue. The "virtue" emphasized by Confucius refers to the virtue of command of the ruling class, which is required to rule and own the people. Secondly, it refers to the virtue of probation, i.e., the virtue of ethics, which is used to probate the people and maintain harmony. This idea of virtue was constantly developed and generalized, and was fully embodied in family ethics. This makes our country always put morality in the first place in the process of cultural transmission and education in ancient times. For example, Confucius carried out education with the contents of rituals, music, archery, imperialism, arts, and mathematics, and he put the rituals in the first place, which is a typical reflection of the idea of reverence for morality in the educational activities. The purpose of this idea is to advocate the moralization of people, using the role and power of morality to seek harmony in the family ethics, and to seek consistency in the socio-political order and the stability of the social order as a whole. 5 The Realm of Thought in Harmony Holding The highest state of traditional Chinese culture is harmony, which means that every thing should develop naturally according to its own laws. This includes the harmony of man and man, the harmony of individual self body and mind and the harmony of man and nature. Harmony between man and man will promote social stability and family harmony; personal body and mind harmony will enable people to do things without fear, in and out of a well-founded; harmony between man and nature will be able to benefit each other, sustainable development. The ultimate goal of Confucianism's "cultivating one's moral character, harmonizing one's family, ruling the country, and pacifying the world" is to achieve the first kind of harmony, while Buddhism and Taoism focus on the latter two kinds of harmony. Taoism's idea of "the law of nature" is particularly useful for us today to learn how to correctly deal with the relationship between human beings and nature, and to protect the environment. Traditional Chinese culture also believes that in order to achieve the above three types of harmony, it is necessary to adhere to the "middle way", that is, to do things appropriately and properly, and to oppose going to extremes.
