Fan Zhongyan's "taking the world as his own responsibility" was indeed the mainstream thought at that time. On the one hand, it is based on the long-standing Confucian culture in China, and on the other hand, the system and cultural atmosphere in the Song Dynasty encourage literati to care about the world. Therefore, in this rooted Miao Hong environment, just like the previous cultural atmosphere of learning from Lei Feng, it played a positive role in promoting people's behavior and thoughts at that time. Next, I will talk about why it became the mainstream thought at that time from the following aspects.

The first aspect, China's cultural background and Confucian spirit. Throughout the dynasties, there have been literati to express their dedication, such as Zhuge Liang's "dedication to death" and Lu Xun's abandonment of medicine to follow the literature. Since ancient times, dedication has been an inseparable part of China's spiritual culture. Therefore, Fan Zhongyan's "taking the world as his own responsibility" and "worrying about the world first, and enjoying the world later" are actually inseparable from China's traditional spiritual culture.

The second aspect, this is the requirement of the society for officials at that time. At that time, Song Taizong also wrote "Inscription", warning the civil and military officials: "If you get paid, the people will be abused, but God will not bully you." Warn officials to be dedicated and not to oppress the people. At that time, the system, the king of a country, hoped that all officials would be loyal, and the system at that time protected the literati.

In the third aspect, Fan Zhongyan dares to set a good example for others. Fan Zhongyan's spiritual realm is extremely high. He practiced these cultures himself and made them the mainstream of society.

The above is my opinion on this matter, and I hope to adopt it. In fact, this spiritual culture was not only the mainstream at that time, but also the pursuit of our modern society, stressing spiritual civilization and dedication. After the social productive forces have satisfied the basic life, we still need to improve our spiritual pursuit.
