If you are poor, you can benefit yourself; if you are prosperous, you can help the world. Chinese Confucianism proposes that "heaven and man are one". Human affairs must comply with the will of heaven, and the laws of heaven must be transformed into the norms of man. Only by complying with the principles of nature can the country be peaceful and the people be safe. It is manifested in ten aspects: benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, trust, loyalty, filial piety, integrity, courage, and harmony. "Benevolence": benevolence, love, benevolence. Since Confucius advocated the study of "benevolence", "benevolence" has become the "first virtue" and "constant virtue" of the Chinese nation. Confucius regarded "benevolence" as the highest state of personal moral cultivation, "loving others" as the fundamental requirement of morality, and "the world must return to benevolence" as the highest social moral ideal. Talking about "benevolence" means talking about the relationship between people and the love between people, starting from the love for parents, brothers and sisters, and then extending to the love for others. "Benevolence" is not only the most basic virtue, but also the most universal moral standard. "Benevolence" has become a traditional cultural concept of the Chinese nation. Chinese people still regard virtuous people as "benevolent people" and those without virtue as "unbenevolent people." The idea of ??"benevolence", as the main value orientation and moral requirement of the Chinese nation for thousands of years, has penetrated into the blood of the Chinese nation and created the special qualities of the Chinese nation. "Yi": righteousness, justice, fairness, impartiality and fairness. Traditional Chinese culture regards "righteousness" as the ultimate goal and value orientation of life. "Book of Rites: Doctrine of the Mean": "It is appropriate to be righteous. Respect for wealth is the most important thing." Traditional Chinese culture uses both righteousness and benevolence as the core content of traditional morality. The idea of ??"sacrifice one's life for righteousness". "Righteousness" means appropriate, should, and ought, and is the highest moral principle that people should follow. Be altruistic and do not harm or betray others, especially friends, in exchange for your own survival and interests. "Yi" also means friendship and kindness, including mutual concern, care and support between people. Family affection and friendship, when developed to a perfect level, have the element of "righteousness". There is "righteousness" to make friendship friendly and lasting. With "righteousness", friends will not betray their friends, and husbands will not abandon their wives and children. "Righteousness" is the noble moral expression of the Chinese nation. "Li": Mingli, courtesy, comity, etiquette, etiquette, etiquette. "Etiquette" is the outstanding spirit of traditional Chinese culture and the way of social interaction. Etiquette and benevolence are mutually exclusive, benevolence and loving others are the inner spirit of etiquette, and respect and resignation are the external manifestations of benevolence. Being polite, polite and paying attention to etiquette are the traditional virtues of China, a "land of etiquette". Traditional Chinese culture believes that "ritual" is the symbol that distinguishes humans from animals. "The reason why mortals are human is etiquette." ("Book of Rites") "Etiquette" is also the foundation for governing a country and ensuring peace. Chinese ethical culture can be said to be "etiquette culture" in a sense. "Mingli", in a broad sense, means being civilized. As an ethical system and ethical order, it is called "ritual"; as a form of dealing with others, it is called "etiquette" and "etiquette"; as an individual cultivation, it is called "courtesy"; when used to deal with relationships with others, it is called "comity". Etiquette, politeness, comity, etiquette, and etiquette are the embodiment of the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation. "Wisdom": knower, wise, wise, witty. "Wisdom" informs "knowledge". Ancient Chinese thinkers endowed "wisdom" with rich moral and connotations. "Wisdom" lies in knowing how to follow the Tao. Learn to know without knowing it, be wise without being treacherous. "Benevolence, righteousness, propriety, and trustworthiness" are the basic principles for dealing with people. To connect all these, "wisdom" needs to run through them. Otherwise, even if you have the blessing of "benevolence, righteousness, propriety, and trustworthiness", you will not be able to do anything. It may be accessible. In the new era, it is necessary to integrate the moral wisdom of the Chinese nation with humanistic and scientific wisdom to open up new wisdom. "Faith": Integrity and trust. "Shuowen" says: "People's words are believed." "Faith" is the way to establish oneself, to develop one's business, and to govern the world. Integrity and peace. Integrity is a conventional social interaction criterion. Confucius listed "faithfulness" as one of the "four major subjects" (literature, conduct, loyalty, and trustworthiness) and the "five major norms" (respect, tolerance, trustworthiness, sensitivity, and benefit) for educating students, and emphasized the need to "be true to your words." "Have faith", "Trust will lead to trust", "treat people with sincerity", "take people with faith", "a promise worth a thousand dollars", "honesty and trustworthiness" and other traditional virtues have been praised and carried forward by people for thousands of years. "Zhong": Loyalty, loyalty, loyalty and forgiveness. "Loyalty" is a good moral character advocated by the traditional culture of the Chinese nation. When people mention "loyalty", they often think of "foolish loyalty". In fact, this is a misunderstanding. In Confucius' view, there is a question of "loyalty" not only to the "king", but also to ordinary people and all people. In Confucius's time, "jun" was not uncommon. There were "jun" big and small everywhere. In fact, Confucius was very opposed to foolish loyalty. Only by being loyal to the right path and the right heart can one be loyal. In traditional Chinese culture, "loyalty" refers to the king and the people: "Thinking of the best and benefiting the people is loyalty." The so-called loyalty means seeking kindness inwardly and fulfilling one's duties outwardly. Since ancient times, the Chinese nation has had a fine tradition of serving the country with loyalty and sacrificing one's life for righteousness. "Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world." This is the common aspiration of people with lofty ideals throughout the ages. Loyalty to the cause, the motherland, and the people are the highest and most sacred values ??pursued by the Chinese nation. "Xiao": filial piety, filial piety, filial piety. The Chinese nation advocates the concept of inheritance from ancestors. It is mainly about "filial piety" towards parents and elders, emphasizing orderliness between elders and younger ones. Confucius pioneered private education and put "filial piety" at the top of teaching, saying that "filial piety" is the foundation of morality. "Filial piety is the foundation of virtue" and "filial piety is the first of all virtues". People often associate "honoring parents" with "underwriting the motherland", thinking that "loyalty and filial piety cannot have both", and even belittle "honoring parents". This is a misunderstanding. In fact, "honoring parents" and "serving the motherland" are both glorious. The two can and should be unified.

Loyalty and filial piety can have both worlds. It is true that some individuals cannot be unified due to certain conditions, but this cannot be generalized. We must try our best to combine the two, so as to fulfill the "loyalty" of "serving the motherland" and the "filial piety" of "honoring our parents". This is a time-honored traditional virtue of the Chinese nation. "Jie": solar terms, famous festivals, conduct, and moderation. Advocate ideals, beliefs, and beliefs. Confucius said in "The Analects of Confucius: Shuer": "Being rich and noble without justice is like floating clouds to me." Mencius put forward the wise saying in "Tengwen Gongxia" that "wealth and honor cannot be lascivious, poverty and lowliness cannot be moved, and force cannot bend". . Stressing integrity, ethics, reputation, and soft desires have gone through thousands of years of tempering and development. It has been forged into the noble qualities of not seeking fame and fortune, being honest in government, impartiality and selflessness, the great spirit of self-restraint, self-improvement and hard work, and the lofty national integrity. Personal pursuit. "Yong": Brave, strong and resolute. Traditional Chinese culture has given rich connotations to "brave": "holding integrity without fear is called courage", "holding righteousness without hiding it is called courage", "devoting yourself to righteousness is called courage", "knowing death and not avoiding it is called courage", "hanging on "To give up life for benevolence is called courage", "to give up life for benevolence is called courage", "to defeat the enemy with great ambition is called courage". "Courage" means daring to think, dare to do, dare to venture, dare to innovate, dare to pioneer, dare to take responsibility, dare to tell the truth, dare to adhere to principles, and dare to seek truth from facts. In a nutshell, "brave" means being brave and decisive, not afraid of favoring justice, and strong and unyielding. The strong spirit of self-improvement, bravery and tenacity contained in traditional Chinese culture is the inexhaustible driving force for the Chinese people to endure hardships and endure hardships, becoming more courageous and courageous with each setback. "Harmony" means harmony, harmony, neutrality, peace and harmony. Seeking common ground while reserving differences. Traditional Chinese culture regards "harmony" as the highest value and the highest moral realm. "It is used as a ritual, and harmony is the most precious." "("The Analects of Confucius*Xueer") proposes that government should be "lenient to temper the fierce, and fierce to temper the lenient", lenient and violent should be balanced, and "harmony" should be used to govern the country. In response to the crisis of the Zhou regime at that time, Shi Bo, the official of King You of Zhou, put forward " The theory of "harmony between living things, unity is not enough". Mozi proposed: "Love each other, mutual benefit", "Separation cannot harmonize and unite." "(Volume 3 of "Mozi*Jianzhe") "Harmony" is considered to be the highest goal pursued by humanity. Traditional culture also mentions "Zhong" and "harmony" together: "Zhongye is the foundation of the world; harmony is the root of the world; That's right, it's the way to reach the world. . To achieve neutrality, the heaven will have its place and all things will be nurtured. "("Book of Rites* Doctrine of the Mean") "Zhonghe" is an important part of Confucian culture, emphasizing ideas such as "harmony", "allowing to adhere to it", and "time in the middle". It still has very important theoretical value and practical significance today. Harmonious husband and wife, harmonious family, harmonious neighbors, harmonious society, harmony among all nations, harmony between man and nature, harmony in wealth, peace in the world, and harmony in the economy are the highest state and highest goal of the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation. It can be divided into two groups: the original "Five Constants" - "benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trustworthiness" are one group; the new "Five Virtues" - "loyalty, filial piety, integrity, courage, and harmony" are a group of 10. The connotation and denotation of the words are relatively different, and there is inevitably overlap. The original meaning and idea are mainly taken. The "Ten Virtues" are both introverted, in terms of one's own inner cultivation; and extroverted, in terms of relationships with others, social relations, and changing the world. Each group of words has an order and corresponds to each other. Benevolence, loyalty, righteousness, filial piety, etiquette, wisdom and courage, trust and harmony make the summary of the basic connotation of the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation more complete, full and comprehensive. Mencius believes that "the four virtues". " are not parallel, "Benevolence" is the first and the foundation of the "Four Virtues", and "Faith" runs through it; the new "Five Virtues", "Loyalty" is the first, is the foundation, and "Harmony" runs through it. "Benevolence" is the core of the Chinese nation. The core idea of ??traditional virtues. "Harmony" also runs through the whole "Ten Virtues" and is the highest state and highest goal of the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation. The "Ten Virtues" are comprehensive, comprehensive and realistic. Yes, the "Ten Virtues" include morality, value, personality, culture, system, rule of law, economy, politics, practice, family, and country. The "Ten Virtues" are the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation. The basic connotation is the essence, the essence, the basic principles of life, and the social ethical norms. The "Ten Virtues" fully demonstrate the profoundness of the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation, fully embody the profound heritage of the Chinese nation's traditional thoughts, and fully reflect the Chinese nation. Traditional culture has a long history. The "Ten Virtues" are a very high, comprehensive, beautiful, and ideal goal, and it is a lofty realm that cannot be completely achieved or achieved by everyone, even every generation. But we can. We must unswervingly yearn for it, strive for it, work tirelessly, and keep approaching it forever! The "Ten Virtues" are the most important virtues of the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation.

If the Chinese nation adheres to the "Ten Virtues", promotes the "Ten Virtues", pursues the "Ten Virtues", and practices the "Ten Virtues", then our society must be very harmonious, our country must be very developed, and our nation must be It is very powerful, and our people must be very happy!
