On October 23rd, 65438+ year/KLOC-0, General Secretary Xi Jinping profoundly expounded the spirit of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea, pointing out: "The great spirit of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea forged in the war of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea is a valuable spiritual wealth, which will surely inspire the people of China and the Chinese nation to overcome all difficulties and obstacles and all powerful enemies."
The great spirit of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea is a vivid portrayal of the lofty demeanor of China's producers and people's army, a concentrated display of the traditional virtues and national character of the Chinese nation, a concrete embodiment of the national spirit with patriotism as the core, and an important content of the great China spirit.
Not long ago, at the national commendation meeting for fighting COVID-19 epidemic, General Secretary Xi Jinping profoundly summed up the great anti-epidemic spirit of "life first, national unity, forgetting one's life, respecting science, destiny and * * *". It is not difficult to find that General Secretary Xi Jinping has always attached importance to the power of spirit.
Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping has repeatedly talked about the spirit of China * * * party member, such as Red Boat Spirit, Jinggangshan Spirit, Soviet Area Spirit, Yimeng Spirit, Long March Spirit and Xibaipo Spirit, and emphasized that China Spirit must be carried forward to realize the Chinese dream. This year alone, he made many important speeches and instructions on the spirit: for example, in the new period, we should carry forward the spirit of moving westward and Yan 'an.
People cannot live without spirit, and countries cannot live without spirit. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized: "The revival of a nation needs strong material strength as well as strong spiritual strength."
Spiritual strength is an important guarantee for a series of victories, such as resisting US aggression and aiding Korea and fighting the COVID-19 epidemic. * * * Under the leadership of the Productive Party, China has always regarded China Spirit as a powerful source of strength for revolution and construction.
In 1975, Ray S. Cline, former deputy director of the US Central Intelligence Agency and director of the Information Research Bureau of the State Council, published the book "Assessment of World Powers" and put forward the famous Klein's national strength equation: national strength = (basic entity+economic strength+military strength )× (strategic intention+national will).
A country needs material national strength, but it can never be called a world power without matching spiritual national strength. Since the founding of New China, the people of China have been confronted with an old China that is poor and poor. They also face the suspicion, contempt, repression and blockade of the international community. Without strong spiritual strength, it is impossible to build a powerful new China on such ruins.
There is a great disparity between the enemy and me. In the face of the arrogant United Nations Army, how can we win a great victory without a fearless revolutionary spirit that is not afraid of suffering and death? It is the endless spiritual heritage that has enabled the people of China to make a leap from standing up, becoming rich and strong.
However, in the tide of economic construction, many people lost their way, lost their faith, pursued material enjoyment and neglected spiritual cultivation, and spiritual decline became a worrying social phenomenon.
Although the economic construction has made rapid progress, the spiritual national strength does not match the increasingly powerful material national strength. Such a country can only be said to be big but not strong.
In view of this, since the beginning of the new century, the CPC Central Committee has keenly discovered this dangerous tendency and launched a series of projects to strengthen spiritual cultivation, leading spiritual construction with socialist core values and strengthening spiritual dams with four self-confidences. Hold up a great era with spiritual strength and collective strength.
This is not only the need of ideological construction, but also the long-term consideration of realizing the great cause of national rejuvenation. Core values are the "bearing wall" of culture, which embodies the core of China spirit and is the deepest factor that determines the nature and direction of culture.
The core values are important because they are the yeast of the spirit, the value concept recognized by the same body and the spiritual bond that unites a group. They exist in the heart and are manifested in deeds, providing spiritual support for life, providing value knowledge for ethnic groups, establishing cultural orientation for the country and building a spiritual highland for the country.
Fundamentally speaking, a country's cultural soft power depends on the vitality, cohesion and appeal of its core values. Core values are the concentrated refinement of various spirits and the soul of a high degree of integration of traditional cultural heritage and the spirit of the new era. "Building a solid foundation of faith, supplementing the calcium of spirit and stabilizing the rudder of thought" is the requirement of meeting various challenges in the new era.
In today's era, the once-in-a-century great changes are accelerating, the world is changing, unstable and uncertain factors are increasing, and domestic reforms are also facing many contradictions and pressures.
Individuals urgently need to come out of the castle of "things", from the selfish desire of beggar-thy-neighbor, from the materialized "small age", from the "great virtue" of the country, the nation and the people, raise their heads with dignity, look up at the starry sky overhead, and establish their own direction.
As far as the country is concerned, it is more important to carry forward the unique spiritual character of China people and the revolutionary spirit of China producers, and to respond to the situation with a full mental state.
"Welcome the prosperous times and live up to them". Summing up lessons from suffering, drawing wisdom, inheriting the Chinese spirit that runs through the development time and space at the historical intersection of two centuries, vigorously carrying forward the great Chinese spirit including the spirit of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea, fighting epidemic diseases and the spirit of the Long March, and rallying the majestic strength of hundreds of millions of people, we will certainly create new historical achievements on the new journey of building a socialist modern country in an all-round way!
