What are the eight words of China's traditional virtue?

The eight traditional virtues of the Chinese nation are filial piety, filial piety, loyalty, faithfulness, courtesy, righteousness, honesty and shame. "Filial piety, loyalty, courtesy, honesty and shame" is regarded as the essence of traditional virtues, which not only guides people to stand on the road and learn morality, but also plays an important role in China's ancient traditional politics.

1, filial piety: filial piety. Filial piety is the duty of children, and filial piety is to repay the kindness of parents. To put it bluntly, it can be loyalty to the country, which is also a big "filial piety."

2, standard: respect. Between brothers and sisters, brothers love and help each other. Expand and fill it, treat friends with brothers and sisters, make people eliminate contradictions and be humble to each other.

3. Loyalty: it is loyalty. Loyalty to the country is the responsibility as a citizen, that is, loyalty to the motherland and the people. "Loyalty" means loyalty to the organization and to one's job responsibilities.

4. Letter: It is credit. Credit friends, keep your word to your friends, and never break your word. When you come to social service, you must "keep your word and respect your deeds". You must believe what you say and don't deceive others. When you do something, you must have a respectful attitude, do it seriously, and never perfunctory.

5, courtesy: it is etiquette. Treat people with courtesy, abide by various regulations and abide by the law (including courtesy). Students should salute teachers, parents and guests. Salute is not only superficial, but also inner, which is the embodiment of one's moral cultivation.

6. Righteousness: It is loyalty. In other words, people should have a sense of justice and the spirit of being brave. No matter who is in trouble, we should try our best to help and solve the problem. Be moral to your friends, be selfless and help others, and have no intention. Of course, this is not the narrow "brotherhood", not benevolence, but ignorance.

7. Lian: This is incorruptible. There are honest people, no matter what they see, they can't afford it, and they don't want to take advantage of it. Instead, they cultivate a selfless spirit.

8. Shame: Shame. Never do anything unreasonable or against your conscience. If people are shameless, they are like animals. Shame is also self-esteem. Confucius said: "It is almost brave to know shame", and it is not brave to know mistakes and correct them.
