Teachers always talk about inheriting excellent traditional culture. What is traditional culture?

Culture itself is a very broad and humanistic concept, and it is difficult to give it an accurate or precise definition, but there is a similar explanation and understanding: culture is all human spiritual activities and their products relative to politics and economy. As far as traditional culture is concerned, it is a culture that reflects the national characteristics and features, and it is the overall expression of various ideological cultures and ideological forms in the history of various ethnic groups.

Specifically, it refers to the history, geography, customs, traditional customs, lifestyle, literature and art, code of conduct, way of thinking and values of a country or a nation. In the long-term social practice of our people, China traditional culture with Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism as its pillar has been formed. Various arts (such as painting, sculpture, calligraphy, drama, festivals, etc.). ) Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism are its concrete manifestations.

China's traditional culture takes poetry, ci, songs, fu, national music, national drama, folk art and China's calligraphy and painting as carriers. Traditional festivals and various folk activities, including China's ancient natural sciences including traditional calendars, and the traditional cultures of various regions and ethnic minorities living in China are also part of China's traditional culture. Philosophical thought, based on the Prajna thought in Buddhist philosophy, annihilates "emptiness" and "existence", annihilates the contradiction between "mind" and "thing", and achieves ideological harmony.

Culture is to convey people's spirit. Traditional culture, although it sounds lofty, is also a valuable spiritual wealth accumulated by ancestors after several generations of experience on the land. The spirit of the Chinese nation is embodied in the excellent traditional culture of the Chinese nation. As descendants of the Chinese people, we should inherit and develop those excellent traditional cultures, so that our cultural spirit can be passed down and spread all over the world.
