"What is the joy of learning and time learning?" "" Knowing is known, and I do not know it, and I know it. "These famous sayings of Confucius, I am familiar with, recite." The mind has always wondered, Confucius should be what kind of person ah? If only I could meet him on the side, how fortunate it would be.
Finally, the desire to become a thing. This spring, my classmates and I came to Qufu to visit Confucian, Confucius Temple and Konglin.
Konglin, in fact, is a large cemetery, the place where Confucius and his descendants slept. They are near or far around Confucius, guarding their great ancestors, observing the intergenerational order. If in the air overlooking, the whole cemetery, must be a concentric circle, the central core of reverence and kindness, condensed the family of the Confucius clan, but also care for the family's descendants of the hole.
There are many trees in the cemetery, many of which are country one, tertiary protect the trees. These trees are the descendants of Confucius planted one of them, most of the old, or towering, or cover the day, representing their ancestral tomb to shelter the wind and rain of the heart, but also hinted at his hope that the son Soccerway home prominent families the good wishes.
with infinite sigh, with the hope of happiness, we come to the exciting place -Confucius Temple. Walking into the entrance of Confucius Temple, he saw many statues of Confucius. Guided by the guide, we found that these or sitting or standing statues, all have one thing in common-the action of the hands is the same, the left hand outside, the right hand, the two-fold, like a "person" word. I am very curious, and baffled its solution, through the Consultation guide, I know the mystery, this is the first lesson that Confucius gave us-learn to be a man. You see, the word "people", one-off, simple, no oblique branches frontage, strokes a wide range, the first is to be simple and honest, say what. Look again, "people" Word, indomitable spirit, impartiality, we should be down-to-earth, pay attention to the integrity.
not only that, but I also know that this hand-folded action has a proprietary name --handing it over. This is the ancient people meet with people, the most common is the most basic etiquette. Salute, the first must be two feet together, the body stand straight, that is, they must be an upright person, with self-esteem requirements; Then, the hands of the arch, the body slightly bowed, said to each other's sincere respect.
Such a double-handed folding simple action, but contains a wealth of humanistic connotation, taught us both self-esteem, but also respect for others etiquette norms, is really great!
I am in awe of Confucius, learning his appearance, attention, hand, bow, complete a hand-off ceremony. The mind is pure and the mind is clear. If people can salute each other, every day, then, people will be a saint, society will also be a world of great harmony.
today, I finally understand why we in China advocate "and" culture, why we in China such respect for the Hole saints, in 2500 years ago, Confucius for our Chinese nation has established the etiquette, created the influence of culture, he is a saint, is a great man!
