What is the spirit of the combination of the basic principles of Marxism and the excellent traditional Chinese culture?

The spirit of combining the basic principles of Marxism with the excellent traditional Chinese culture is embodied as follows:

1. Openness and inclusiveness provide the prerequisite foundation for the combination of the two

Openness and inclusiveness are the theoretical qualities of Marxism, and also the important spiritual qualities of the excellent traditional Chinese culture. Marxism has never been a self-absorbed, self-enclosed system.

A true Marxist must emancipate his mind and constantly answer and solve real problems with an evolving Marxism in accordance with the deepening of understanding and the development of practice. This trait is the fundamental reason why Marxism can always maintain its vigorous vitality and strong fighting force.

The excellent traditional Chinese culture has never been an exclusionary and closed culture, and its broad openness and profound inclusiveness are the unique mark of the Chinese nation. In the long history of Chinese culture, the formation of the "Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism" three schools of thought, and different multi-cultural system, has always been upholding the "all things together without harm, Taoism and parallel without contradiction," the concept of development.

Openness and inclusiveness provide the prerequisite and possibility for the combination of the basic principles of Marxism and Chinese traditional culture.

On the one hand, Marxism, with its power of truth, has greatly stimulated the vitality of Chinese culture, and Chinese culture, which has lasted for thousands of years, has been rejuvenated by drawing on the essence of Marxism;

On the other hand, the excellent traditional Chinese culture has provided Marxism with an immensely rich cultural soil, and it has a foundation in which it can take root and flourish. This combination shows that the world's different civilizations do not have only one option of clashing with each other.

Adhering to the unity of openness and inclusiveness, abandoning the theory of "clash of civilizations", seeking wisdom and drawing nourishment from different civilizations, promoting exchanges and mutual learning among different civilizations, and painting a new picture of human civilization that is both beautiful and beautiful*** together are the right choices of all peoples of the world.

2. Practicality and innovativeness give a constant impetus to the combination of the two

Practicality and innovativeness are the basic viewpoints and intrinsic character of Marxism, as well as the universal proposition of the spiritual kernel of the Chinese excellent traditional culture. Marxism is not a theory to be shelved on a shelf, but a powerful weapon to guide people in understanding the world and transforming it, and to promote practice and guide innovation.

Engels emphasized that Marxism is not a doctrine but a method, which cannot be taken as a ready-made formula. To recognize and apply Marxism, one must "always be guided by the historical conditions of the time" and adapt it to local conditions and keep pace with the times.

Chinese culture has a long history and cannot be separated from the spirit of practice and innovation. Chinese traditional culture advocates "learning, thinking and using" through, "knowledge, faith and action" unity. Confucius's "in speech, keen in action", "action speaks louder than words", Xunzi's "know before you act", Zhu Xi's "know before you act", and Zhu Xi's "know before you act", all of which have been recognized by the Chinese government and the Chinese government. "

All of them reflect that Chinese traditional culture attaches great importance to practicability. At the same time, the traditional Chinese culture of "change and seek new" concept throughout the past and present, "heavenly craftsmen" sentiment made a lot of technological inventions and creations, "Gou Ri Xin, day by day, and day by day". The innovative spirit of "the old state of Zhou, its life is new" has pushed the Chinese civilization to innovate and renew itself over the years.

The *** qualities of practicability and innovativeness have injected a strong impetus into the combination of the two. In the combination, on the one hand, Marxism has been endowed with Chinese characteristics, Chinese style, and Chinese style, and the distinctive Chinese cultural background has given Marxism a profound historical foundation and mass basis for the modernization of Chineseization;

On the other hand, the distinctive scientific and truthful nature of Marxism has made up for the lack of scientific and logical Chinese culture, and has provided the basis for the Chinese traditional culture to On the other hand, Marxism's distinctive scientific and truthful nature makes up for the lack of scientific and logical problems of Chinese culture, provides the correct direction and methodological guidance for "taking the essence and removing the dregs" of traditional Chinese culture, and opens up the channel for Chinese civilization to move from tradition to modernity, so that the two can realize mutual complementarity of strengths and promote each other.
