Why does traditional Chinese culture have strong continuity?

Chinese culture is very inclusive, good at integrating and absorbing the strengths of foreign cultures,

The first time is to absorb the Buddhist culture, so that Confucianism, Buddhism, Taoism fusion

The second time is to absorb the Islamic culture

The third time is to learn from the Western culture in modern times (can also be understood as Christian culture)

It is precisely because we are absorbing the culture of foreigners to supplement our deficiencies that we have become more inclusive and evolved. complement our deficiencies, it is what makes us eclectic and constantly evolving.

More importantly, we are absorbing and integrating, making foreign cultures part of us and imprinting them with the Chinese identity, rather than accepting and learning from them wholesale. For example, there is a big difference between Chinese Buddhism and Indian Buddhism, that is, when we absorbed it, we deleted and changed the things that don't conform to Chinese concepts (there are several kinds of sins in Buddhism, among which we deleted the one of incest when it came to China)
