What are the moral concepts in China's traditional culture?

The sense of social responsibility and mission of wholeness and self-denial. In the traditional ethical structure of China, for the benefit of the country and the people, "promoting the interests of the people under heaven" (Mozi Classic) is the highest expression of morality and the greatest "righteousness". Adhering to this principle to regulate people's behavior and observing this principle is the embodiment of "people with lofty ideals." Many thinkers, politicians and writers have been advocating this realm of life. Confucius said, "If you don't survive, you will harm others" (The Analects of Confucius, Yongye), and Mencius said, "Life is what I want; Yi, I want to. You can't have your cake and eat it, so you have to sacrifice your life for justice "(Mencius Teng Wengong). Fan Zhongyan advocated that "if you live in a temple, you will worry about your people;" Far away, the rivers and lakes, and near, you are worried about the king. " "Worry about the world first, and enjoy the world later" (The Story of Yueyang Tower); Du Fu lamented that "there are thousands of spacious buildings, and the poor in the world are happy, and the wind and rain do not move" ("The autumn wind in the hut breaks the song"); Lin Zexu Mingzhi said that "it is difficult to live or die for the country, but it is difficult for every cloud has a silver lining to avoid it" ... These views and propositions all adhere to the principle of putting national interests and overall interests first, and "putting righteousness first and interests first" in the relationship between individuals and others, society and groups. When considering personal interests, we should not violate moral principles and harm the interests of society and others. The so-called "righteousness before taking", "unjust and rich and expensive, like a cloud following me" (The Analects of Confucius Yong Ye).
