Is China's culture changing all the time or is it consistent? What keeps changing and what can't.

China's excellent traditional culture is consistent with the classics and is innovative on the basis of the classics. The spirit of China culture, China people's moral thought and China people's philosophy will not change. For example, the Book of Changes, the first of the group classics, contains the spirit of harmony between man and nature, endless life, benevolence and morality, balance between yin and yang, simplicity and unpretentious. The doctrine of the mean and the virtue of kindness like water in Tao Te Ching; Do as you would be done by. In college, we should learn from things, be sincere and upright, cultivate self-cultivation, govern the country and level the world; Mencius' thought of benevolence and love for the people will not change, but on the other hand, the people of China are active and flexible. From relaxing bowels for a long time, keeping pace with the times, the ups and downs of Yin and Yang in the Yijing period, to Confucius' teaching in accordance with his aptitude, the intangible water conservancy in the Tao Te Ching will change according to the development of things. The College of Great Achievements believes that tradition is not a static stone statue, but full of life, like a torrent. The farther away from its source, the bigger it expands. Now, we have entered the era of globalization and knowledge economy. Under the background of globalization, the world situation is extremely changeable. In the changing world situation, people have noticed that it contains the clash of civilizations. Now western scholars exclaim "the decline of the west", and there is a trend in the world to hope for the revival of oriental culture, that is, to influence the world with oriental culture. The torrent of China's cultural traditions is forming a turbulent trend towards the world.
