What is the core idea of China culture? Is it Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism?

Not Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, specifically! The core idea of culture is to see the essence through all complicated appearances, and the essence of culture is calm, standardized and elegant. This ideological tendency is true in all aspects of life and culture. I want to give an example of these aspects, but it involves several aspects of cultural definition. What I want to talk about here is the definition of culture: the definition of culture is relative to economy, politics, all human spiritual activities and their products.

Culture is the sum of all social phenomena and the inner spirit of intelligent groups, and it is inheritance, creation and development. It covers the history of intelligent groups from the past to the future, and is the content of all activities of intelligent groups based on nature. It is the whole of all material appearances and the inner spirit of the group. The specific content of human culture refers to history, geography, customs, traditions, tools, appendages, lifestyles, religious beliefs, literature and art, norms, laws, systems, ways of thinking, values, aesthetic tastes and spiritual totems.

From the above definition of culture, can we regard the form of culture as an unconscious cultural quality cycle that embodies PDCA? Isn't culture all about summing up and improving in the cycle at the next higher level, and then going up in small steps? For thousands of years in history, all cultural inheritance, improvement and absorption have always revolved around peace, standardization and elegance? Therefore, for example, the arrangement of wedding etiquette, funeral etiquette, sacrifice etiquette, banquet for guests and welcoming etiquette all follows an established formula, which is a more perfect embodiment of people's aesthetic value. The promotion of cultural etiquette in the back will only be better and more comprehensive than that in the front, and the whole is a wave-like upward curve.

To sum up, people of any nation and any era, no matter how different their ideology and culture are, will never change their tendency to be calm, standardized and elegant.
