In practice, a gentleman should strive to pursue an independent attitude towards life, not afraid of difficulties and hardships, pursue inner freedom, and pursue truth and wisdom.

This realm not only has far-reaching influence on personal cultivation, but also has great significance to the progress of society and human civilization.
