Yan Gongda || The humanistic spirit in Lile and Lehua

Jiangnan culture is a large regional concept. According to traditional research habits, we discuss whether our discussion today is also called "Wu culture", that is, Wu Di culture. Wu Di culture has spread, and it is still a living culture that nourishes the spiritual quality of the Wu Di people in Jiangnan. Some experts have pointed out: The three core values ​​of Wu Di culture, one is the spirit of courtesy and the sense of innovation; the other is the political ideal of the Datong Xiaokang thought and the politics of the ritual and righteousness; And the realm of worrying and happy. An important feature of culture is its regional character. As a regional culture, it contains the historical connotation of the great Chinese culture and the regional cultural characteristics that integrate with its own geographical environment. soul.

The cultural characteristics of Wu Di can be summarized as "Chongwen Re -Education, and still virtue pragmatic". Its rich internal connotation and spiritual characteristics show the spiritual concept and development momentum of the survival and development of the Chinese nation. “尚德崇文”，今天重温祖先留给后人的文化遗产，品味它的历史人文精神，我们便可明白：“德”，内涵“礼让”、“友善”、“关怀”、“谦和”、 "Pioneering" ... This is the cultural quality built on personalized psychology. The benevolent lovers, "let virtue" and "to virtue" are the historical core of Wu Di culture. More than 3,200 years ago, the story of Taibei and Yu Zhongben Wu, three times to let Xian's season calendar, just reflects the "courtesy" and "harmony" of the high wind and bright festival. Hundreds of years later, Confucius worshiped the Temple of Lulu, admired Zhou Gong, listened to Shao Le, and lamented, praised, "Taber is a virtue!" Sui Zhi, Confucianism is as its core, Taoism will be the spirit of virtue as a guideline as a guideline as a guideline. , The legalist is the spirit of Germany as heaven. "De", as a humanity, is integrated into the blood of the Chinese civilization. "The use of rituals, harmony is noble" ("The Analects of Confucius · Learning")) both "and" both "rituals" are virtues, and this is the virtue of internal tilt. The external form of Germany is the "Daze and the World" advocated by Confucianism.

"The Analects of Confucius · Yao Yao" records that Confucius said, "I don't know how to be courteous." According to the "Book of Rites and Confucius Yanju", Confucius said to the words of the words "Li Ye, reason", "the rule of the rule". Confucius felt that he had "strong" qi in the south, so he tirelessly discussed the "ritual" claims with him, making him know about cultivation and pursuit of ideal personality as a "benevolent". The teachings of the words and attracting the master, in the future social practice, "set up a system", innovate the corresponding "use of rituals" model. With his personal experience, Confucius' music, the music of the "Wen Qi Binbin", was so -called "standing in rituals, making music". "Book of Rites · Confucius Yanju" discusses "Li Ye, Lisa. Le Ye, Ji Ye", "Le, Heaven and Earth", "harmony, so all things are all melted." Because "music" can regulate the beginning of interpersonal contradictions and straighten the interpersonal relationships in the conflict. For example, Confucius said, "People are not benevolent, what is ritual? Why?" And "benevolent" is "love" and "knowing people". Based on this, Confucius also pointed out: "If the ritual and music is not interested, the punishment will not be converted. , Create the practice of ritual governance of ritual and music. The etiquette of the whole nine years opened the situation of "people and". The social practice of the success of ritual and music has won the same praise of Kongmen and the people. Know its virtue. " The pursuit of the value of human truth, kindness, and beauty reveals the continuous alcoholization and creation of Chinese people in generations of generations in social development.

Yan Zi faithfully inherited and developed the doctrine of Confucius' governance of the country in the world, and became the representative of the "three generations of etiquette rules." Yanzi's ritual and music education deeply expounds the core concept of Confucianism's "virtue", and expresses the humanistic care of the world. The "virtue" here not only expresses the humble virtue of politeness. It also expresses the virtue of friendly care, and also expresses the virtue of pioneering creation. This is the result of "chemical education", which is also passed down from generation to generation for thousands of years. Mingde is aspiring, hard -working, and pioneering and persistent entrepreneurship.

For thousands of years, the typical lifestyle of Chinese people is ritual and music. Chinese civilization is a foot -footed civilization and does not expand outward, and develops a quiet and peaceful natural consciousness and an attitude of survival. Fear the people, get close to nature. The establishment of this etiquette lifestyle needs to rely on many forms and levels of humanistic aesthetic education, that is, aesthetic education, to form a social atmosphere of collective consciousness. The Chinese nation has always pinned the mood of life in the aesthetic realm of etiquette and music.

For more than 40 years of reform and opening up, today, in the country's realization of a well -off society, the social psychological crisis of the Internet era has ruthlessly approached modern people, especially the younger generation. When material is widely liberated and advocated, people often start to despise the lofty, and the spiritual plateau will be silent and falling. It cannot be denied that over the years, the loss of my country's cultural ecological crisis and humanistic spirit has caused a social phenomenon that has a flood of emotional desire, very secular social phenomena. The rudeness of cultural life ... In the face of an impetuous era, we especially need the moisturizing and the purification of the aesthetics, and we need "ritual and music education" in traditional culture and the modern humanistic spirit based on this.

Recently, two stories have been circulated on the Internet WeChat. What is said: "Pickup Mother" Zhang Fei raised more than thirty abandoned babies. After growing up, she never contacted her. Only one child had contacted her, because the reason turned out to borrow money. 18 high students in a university escaped into Huangshan Exploration and were trapped. During the rescue, the police Zhang Haining fell to the cliff and sacrificed, but the rescued students were silent. None of the funeral to mourn. Seeing this social phenomenon, I believe that everyone's mood will be very heavy. For more than forty years of reform and opening up, we have got a lot of them. Why do we lose a lot? Our nation has miraculously entered the "world country", but has the crisis of national spirit retrogression in a certain aspect? The heavy social reflection brings such a very serious topic to each of us governance, management or the text, or the consecutive teachers -how to revitalize the excellent traditional culture of the Chinese nation? How to enhance the humanistic spirit in the traditional "ritual and music"? Yes, the key to the imbalance of social and cultural ecology lies in the crisis of social belief. The people's heart and money are supreme, and the social ruler is reduced to make money as the only purpose. In this era full of doubt, we still need faith! Because the lack of faith brings a crisis of humanity! Contemporary Chinese people need to retrieve the "noble spirit" that our ancestors once. Returning is not exactly the contemporary Chinese culture self -confidence, self -reliance and consciousness? "Gentleman's foundation, knowledge and action", a writer said well: "Simple life, noble soul is the highest state of life."

The Chinese nation's tradition is the family feelings with humanistic concepts as the fundamental fulcrum, and its core idea is "respecting the heavenly love". The reason why Chinese traditional culture, which is mainly Confucian culture, highlights the ideal ideal of personality because of the division and conflict of social personality. The core of Confucianism is the promotion of the human spirit. Therefore, Confucianism emphasizes "inside saints and kings". Inner saints -moral cultivation; outer king -Taoism is the king, "the unity of the holy king" is the unity of heaven and man. This is the ideal ideal of Confucian representatives from Confucius, Yanzi to Mencius, and the pursuit of personality ideals is to solve the settlement of the soul.

It is true that history is evolving, the era is progressing, and the traditional humanistic spirit in ritual and music should be progressive to the modern humanistic spirit, pursuing the historic and social transformation of modern humanistic spirit. This is: the innovative development of people -oriented value rationality and truth -seeking and pragmatic practice in the new era; the creative transformation of the rational rationality and contemporary practice used by the world; The general improvement of the quality of the aesthetic education in the modern lifestyle of the people's hearts and the Internet era, so as to cultivate a generation of newcomers who know about rituals and knowledge, accumulate goodness and virtue, and have social responsibility. You know, a society with etiquette and aesthetics can bred the fruit of classic culture and art. This is the universal significance of aesthetic education.
