In the development of human history, although the Chinese nation has experienced ups and downs, it can always overcome difficulties and keep moving forward. Her history and her civilization have never been interrupted. One of the important reasons why the Chinese nation has been able to make great efforts through disasters and show great vitality and vigor is that it has formed a great national spirit with patriotism as the core in the historical development of thousands of years. At present, it is our bounden duty and obligation to inherit and carry forward the national spirit.
A long history and splendid culture have given birth to a great national spirit.
The spirit of the Chinese nation is rich in connotation and profound. Its core is the spirit of unity and unity with patriotism as the core; Its supporting point is the pioneering spirit of self-improvement and the self-reliance spirit of hard struggle.
China has a civilization history of more than 5,000 years, and many nationalities live together in this land. The exchanges and integration between ethnic groups have cultivated and carried forward the patriotic spirit of unity and unity.
The spirit of the Chinese nation is manifested in many aspects. Some will integrate scattered tribes into a unified nation and promote the development and growth of this nation; Some bravely resist foreign invasion and defend their homes, lives and property; Some resist foreign aggression and safeguard national unity and integrity. In the long-term national development, this spirit has been integrated into the profound patriotic tradition.
The Chinese nation has always been famous for its hard work, courage and hard work. "Difficulties and hardships make you successful", "Be prepared for danger in times of peace, and refrain from extravagance and frugality". The Chinese nation's tenacious struggle and struggle against fate in the long history has cultivated the spirit of self-reliance through hard struggle.
The national spirit is manifested in hard work, perseverance, integrity and self-discipline for the country and the people. This spirit has become one of the driving forces for the survival and development of the Chinese nation since Dayu's flood control "failed to enter the door three times". Zhuge Liang in the Three Kingdoms period set an example and practiced the oath of "doing my best until I die". When Yu Qian was the governor of Shanxi and Henan in the Ming Dynasty, he promoted the advantages and eliminated the disadvantages, and the honest officials were spotless. At the critical moment when Mengwa was invaded, Yingzong was captured, and the country was in danger, he calmly responded, regardless of personal interests, supported sects, defended Beijing, and repelled the enemy, realizing his wish of "being crushed to pieces, fearless and innocent." It is this spirit of worrying about the country and the people that paves the way for the survival and development of the Chinese nation.
The spirit of hard work is also manifested in some people of insight. As early as the pre-Qin period, there was a metaphor that governing the country should be "walking on thin ice, like approaching an abyss". This spirit was also summed up by the ancients as "being prepared for danger in times of peace". There is a famous saying in Yi Zhuan: "Be safe without forgetting danger, live without forgetting death, and rule without forgetting chaos." It is to ask the rulers to keep a clear head, not to be intoxicated with the joy of victory, but to have a sense of urgency. Confucius also had worries. He said: "I am worried if I don't practice morality, don't talk about learning, and I can't migrate if I am not good at it." ("The Analects? In his view, moral education cannot be popularized all over the world, which is also his worry. Li Sao, written by Qu Yuan, a doctor of Chu State in the Warring States Period, is a masterpiece of anxiety. Fan Zhongyan, a politician in the Song Dynasty, wrote such a famous sentence in The Story of Yueyang Tower: "Worry about the world first, and enjoy the world later", which raised the sense of hardship to a new height.
The spirit of hard work has a deep foundation among the people. Long-term historical edification has enabled the broad masses of the people to develop a fashion of being proud of thrift. Family precepts handed down from generation to generation in history are full of this content. Diligence, thrift and hard work have become an important link for the Chinese nation to cultivate its temperament and sharpen its personality, and they have gradually expanded. From individuals to families to countries, efforts are regarded as the foundation of building families and countries.
During the revolutionary war years, China's * * * production party organically combined the spirit of hard struggle with the pursuit of national independence, and reached a new level in the combination of personal cultivation and national destiny. Mao Zedong put forward the requirement of "Two Musts" at the Second Plenary Session of the Seventh Central Committee, and advocated continuing to work hard. Today, the cause we are engaged in is unprecedented. We should raise the national spirit of hard struggle condensed by a long history to a new height and strive to practice it. Especially when our cause has made great achievements, it is even more necessary to advocate hard work. Only in this way can we be in an invincible position.
In a word, patriotism, self-improvement and hard struggle are the main contents of the Chinese national spirit and the spiritual support for us to comprehensively promote the construction of a well-off society and create a new situation in Socialism with Chinese characteristics.
