The Basic Spiritual Demonstration of China Culture

The basic spiritual arguments of China culture are as follows:

1. The Chinese nation is a whole composed of many nationalities (or races). In the long-term development process, the cultures of all ethnic groups in China have blended with each other, and * * * has become a rich and splendid Chinese culture.

2. Historically, it is undeniable that Chinese culture is in a dominant position in the cultural development of China. The culture of Han nationality once had a far-reaching influence on the culture of brother nationality, but it also absorbed the cultural achievements of brother nationality. There is a long-term cultural blending process between the Han nationality and the brotherly nationality.

3. From a global perspective, China culture is an independent development system with a continuous development process. In this development process, although it often absorbs the advantages of foreign cultures, it always maintains its own independence, thus becoming a unique cultural type in the world, influencing foreign countries and making great contributions to world culture.

4. For thousands of years, China culture has existed independently in the east of the world, with a certain material basis (the reason of material production) and a certain ideological basis. This ideological basis can be called the basic spirit of China culture.

Traditional cultural spirit:

1, vigorous and promising, constantly striving for self-improvement: China's traditional culture has been permeated with a series of complementary categories of opposites, such as rigidity and softness, activity and inaction, and has a profound dialectical spirit.

2. Humanistic spirit: Humanistic spirit is one of the basic spirits of China traditional culture, which is different from the western classical spirit based on God and the modern western pursuit of individual freedom and democratic values.

3. Harmony between man and nature: Harmony between man and nature is an important idea put forward in the development of China's traditional culture. This thought holds that the development of nature and human development are interactive, and people should adjust and standardize their words and deeds according to the changes in nature.

4. The spirit of rule by courtesy: China traditional culture not only carries out the humanistic spirit, but also permeates a spirit of rule by courtesy. As a social ideal, the spirit of rule by courtesy is essentially the emphasis and persistence of social order.
