Why is it important to preserve and maintain cultural traditions?

Thanks for your invitation:

I personally feel that preserving traditional culture is beneficial to the present generation, and it is also a favorable way to inherit and carry forward the spirit and beliefs of our nation. I think that our faith today should also be found in traditional culture, the essence of traditional culture is very deep, not in words can be said clearly. I know that every country has its own unique culture or unique civilization and culture, however, these cultures have accompanied mankind through hundreds and thousands of years of history, and they are the valuable crystallization and soul of a nation and country, as well as wealth. From another point of view, it also symbolizes the spirit and existence of a country. The thousands of years of Chinese civilization and traditional culture have been accumulated bit by bit, which is profound and mysterious. However, it is these unique civilization and traditional culture to cultivate and create our Chinese people's distinctive and unique qualities, as well as unique ideas and connotations of faith, but also the essence of the spirit of the spirit of human nature suitable for our ancient nation, the current new era is also the era of us as we are along the path of traditional culture to the present development to the present, so that we can think of the traditional culture of the power and charm! The power and charm of traditional culture can be thought of. Throughout the world in the wave of learning traditional culture, the protection of our traditional culture is of great significance and far-reaching impact on the maintenance of cultural diversity in the world today. No matter which country or nation, if it abandons its own cultural traditions, it will not have any characteristics to speak of, and at the same time, it will lose its due position in the forest of the world's nations, and for a time, it will also lose its influence in the international political status. In my opinion, the preservation of traditional culture is not a matter of inheriting and preserving it as it is. Conservatism and innovation should complement each other and take the best! It is said that the purpose of innovation is to better conserve, which is a very good saying. Moreover, a nation's traditional culture without innovation and change, there is no vitality, but also can not adapt to contemporary society this is a dialectical relationship. To put it bluntly, the purpose of innovation is to revitalize traditional culture, that is to say, to creatively transform it into a modern type, to make it a higher civilization that is compatible with contemporary society, and to keep it alive for generations to come. If traditional culture is pitted against modernization, traditional culture is not a pool of stagnant water, but a dynamic system, which is of interest to human development. Human beings create traditional culture in their own social practices, and innovate and enrich traditions in their practices. Otherwise, it will not be transformed into real cultural traditions. Therefore, traditional culture should not be reduced to "past history" but should be recognized as having a bearing on both the present and the future. Then again, any modernization can only start from the reality of traditional culture, so that it can walk steadily and far. Otherwise, it will become water without source and wood without root. Mr. Chen Yin Ke said: "Those who can really create a system of their own in thought must, on the one hand, absorb and import foreign doctrines, and, on the other hand, not forgetting the status of the original nation. Therefore, we have to take a dialectical view and inherit and develop traditional culture. Therefore, when we learn and introduce western culture, we must make specific analysis and judgment, or that old saying must start from our actuality, the philosophical revelation that a successful modernization of the country is never the wholesale introduction of western culture, really but in our own traditional culture on the basis of eclecticism, so that one side of the study of foreign advanced culture, while at the same time one side of our own culture to carry out the innovation of the times, but also the development of traditional culture, and the development of a new culture. This is one side of the learning of foreign advanced culture, while at the same time, on the one hand, our own culture to carry out the innovation of the times, but also to continuously improve our own modernization level for development, about the traditional culture in the development and what role in life, it depends on our thinking and thinking way, especially our deep understanding of traditional culture. So the protection of traditional culture is to protect the status and dignity of our country in the world of nations, but also to make us more powerful at all. Personal insights, through the understanding of why you think we need to protect traditional culture?
