On the basis of expounding the basic characteristics of "Datong" society, this paper points out the bright future of "Datong" society. Everyone here can get social care, live and work in peace and contentment, and do their best. This is the lofty social ideal of Confucianism.
This paper compares the real society with the ideal "Datong" society, thus pointing out many phenomena in the real society, such as conspiracy, theft of property, chaos and so on. It will no longer exist in the "Datong" society, but will be replaced by a peaceful and stable situation of "leaving home and not closing the door", which has already reflected the real situation of the real society: social chaos, turmoil, intrigue, and fear for oneself; Thieves are rampant and chaos is rampant.
In a word, the ideal society described in this paper reflects the ancient people's yearning for a better society in China. Although the subjective purpose is only to discuss etiquette, explain the ancient system and publicize Confucianism, the social ideal of "Great Harmony" is the ideological wealth left by ancient sages to all mankind more than 2,000 years ago. Reading is thought-provoking and inspiring.
