Zhang Zai's thought of heaven and earth clarifies the law of movement and change of things, which is based on the simple dialectical materialism of Yi-ology. There is a cloud in the Book of Rites: "Man is the heart of heaven and earth, and at the end of the five elements, he was born of taste, sound and color." Heaven, earth and man are an organic whole, and man is between heaven and earth. Because he knows the ability, he is called "the heart of heaven and earth". This is an affirmation of human status in the universe and a high degree of consciousness of human subjectivity. There is no "heart" in heaven and earth, and people have "hearts". Because "man" is the heart of heaven and earth, "man's heart" embodies "the heart of heaven and earth".

In order to realize this beautiful blueprint and social conception, we must combine theory with practice, advocate the study style of serving the world, and make our due contribution to the peace and harmony of the country, people and society.
