What does Confucius think is filial piety?

Question 1: Analyze and summarize Confucius' "filial piety". Filial piety: Confucius believes that filial piety is the foundation of benevolence. Filial piety is not limited to supporting parents, but should focus on respecting parents and elders. It is considered that without filial piety, supporting parents will be regarded as raising dogs, which is a big violation and unfilial. Confucius also believes that parents may be at fault, and children should politely persuade and try to correct them, rather than obey their parents absolutely. These thoughts are the embodiment of China's ancient moral civilization. However, when Confucius talked about filial piety, he also said that "parents are here, they don't travel far, and they don't change their ways to their fathers for three years. It can be described as filial piety, which shows the limitations of their times. Filial piety was defined as a complex ceremony by later Confucianism. According to the Book of Rites, after the death of parents, water is not allowed to enter, the fire is not lit for three days, and countless crying leads to illness and self-destruction. During the Song and Ming Dynasties, filial piety was regarded as one of the most important categories in moral theory, and philosopher Zhu advocated the absoluteness of patriarchy. In the evolution of different historical periods, the concept of filial piety has some reasonable factors besides advocating feudalism, advocating children to respect the old and love their relatives, combining filial piety with loyalty to the country's righteousness, and advocating thin burial to save money after death.

Question 2: In Confucius' view, what is true filial piety? Confucius himself attached great importance to this morality. In China's Confucian culture, filial piety is especially advocated. Confucius believes that filial piety is the fundamental morality of being a man, so China's traditional culture advocates that filial piety of all virtues comes first. In the Analects of Confucius, the word filial piety appeared 17 times. It is said that in the Song Dynasty, after Song Taizu seized the world, he claimed to rule the world with filial piety. Song Taizu's Prime Minister Zhao Pu once said a famous saying: Half the Analects of Confucius rules the world. This half of The Analects should be consistent with Song Taizu's theory of filial piety. Many students have asked Confucius what filial piety is, so there are many such records in The Analects. Below I will analyze the meaning of filial piety advocated by Confucius through these records.

First, filial piety according to etiquette.

Let's look at a story in The Analects: Meng asked questions about filial piety. Confucius said, "No violation." Fan Chi's prince told him, "Sun Meng asked me about filial piety, and I said' no violation'." Fan Chi said, "What is it?" Confucius said, "People are born with courtesy; If you die, you will be buried with ceremony. " In the present words, Meng asked, "What is filial piety?" Confucius said, "Don't break the ceremony." One day, while driving a bus for Mr. Wang, Confucius said to him, "Sun Meng asked me what filial piety is, and I replied that I should not violate the ceremony." Fan Chi said, "What does this mean?" Confucius said, "When parents are alive, they should be served with certain etiquette; When they die, they should be buried and commemorated according to certain etiquette requirements. "

As can be seen from this record, Confucius believes that filial piety is the first violation of the most basic etiquette. Confucius himself took the thought of Duke Zhou as his life mission, and the "rites of Zhou" gradually formed since the Western Zhou Dynasty, that is, the etiquette system followed by the Zhou Dynasty, all originated from the thought of Duke Zhou. In Zhou Li, the concept of loyalty and filial piety is in the main position. Filial piety is also a kind of etiquette. Show filial piety in various ways. Moreover, he is not an ordinary etiquette, he is the most basic etiquette in everyone's life. Therefore, Zuo Zhuan said that "filial piety begins with ceremony". In this life, people have to learn many rituals, rituals, rituals of monarch and minister, rituals of friends, rituals of classmates, rituals of neighbors and all kinds of rituals. I want to talk to other people's elders, and I want to talk to other people's juniors. But thousands of gifts, the beginning of the ceremony, the initial ceremony you give to your parents first. Parents are your first social relationship and the first person you have to deal with. How to deal with them, so filial piety and courtesy are very important. Confucius paid special attention to everyone's courtesy to their parents at home. According to Confucius, filial piety is the basis of moral ethics. The original meaning of "Ben" is the root, and a solid root is the basic guarantee for flourishing. Therefore, filial piety is the foundation of human relations, that is to say, just like the foundation of a big tree, all human morality and ethics begin to sprout from this foundation of filial piety. Although the root is not the whole tree, filial piety, as the basic point of being a man and even a man, is an indispensable main aspect of human moral life. Based on this principle, Confucius advocated that filial piety should start from the family. He asked young people to be "filial". The so-called "filial piety" refers to the family, and "filial piety" refers to the attitude and behavior of children towards their parents. Family is the cell of society, the health of cells is the foundation of physical health, and family harmony is the first step of social harmony. Of course, there are many aspects of family harmony, but the existence and function of filial piety is still fundamental.

Second, filial piety with heart.

Is it called filial piety as long as you treat and serve your parents according to the requirements of society? Let's find the answer from the daily questions and answers of Confucius and his students in The Analects. One day, Yan Hui and Luz were chatting with their teacher. The teacher said, "Each of you can talk about your ambition." Lutz said: "My ambition is to enjoy these good things with my friends, such as clothes, chariots and horses. I have nothing to complain about if I wear them out. This is my wish. " Yan Hui said: "My wish is that a person should not always blow his own horn, not flaunt his own advantages, but be modest." At this time, the students found that the teacher had not spoken yet. Luz said to the teacher, "I hope to hear your ambition." Confucius gave a simple description of his ideal personality, saying three words: "Old age is secure, friends have faith, and few have feelings." ("The Analects? Gongye Chang) Confucius's ambition is to let the old people settle down, let friends trust him and let young people miss him. Think about it, everyone in this world can't get rid of the relationship with three kinds of people, that is, our elders-parents who gave birth to me and raised me, our peers-friends who accompany me all my life, our younger generation-their children. ......& gt& gt

Question 3: What does Confucius think is the highest expression of filial piety? According to the answers of Confucius and Ceng Zi in the Book of Filial Piety, filial piety includes three levels: (1) the level of "starting at home"; (2) the level of "serving the king in China"; (3) the level of "finally standing up". The lowest performance of filial piety is to take care of yourself and not let parents worry about their "physical harm" or be ashamed of their "moral harm". The highest performance of filial piety lies in "standing on the street, leaving a name for future generations to show parents", honoring ancestors, making contributions to the country and leaving a name in history.

Question 4: Confucius said: "Today's filial piety means that it can be raised. As for dogs and horses, you can keep them. Disrespect, why not? " What does Confucius think is the essence of filial piety? Now the so-called filial piety can only support parents. However, dogs and horses can also be raised by people; If there is no filial piety to parents, what is the difference between adoptive parents and raising dogs and horses? I think Confucius thinks filial piety should be respected.

Question 5: What conditions does Confucius think a person must have to have a reputation for filial piety? Confucius believes that a person should not only be filial on the surface, but also be filial from the heart. He said that parents should give them food when they are hungry and drink when they are thirsty, instead of sincere respect. What's the difference between this and raising livestock? We should respect and be filial to our parents from the bottom of our hearts, but their ideas may not be right. If this is the attitude as a child, we should respect and listen.

Question 6: Three people in The Analects asked what is filial piety. What did Confucius say? What does this mean? Xia Zi asked Confucius: What is filial piety? Confucius said: color is difficult.

At first, I didn't understand Confucius's "color difficulty". Today I will say-"color difficulty"!

Xia Zi asked Confucius, "What is filial piety?" Confucius said, "Color is difficult."

Before, I only knew that being kind to parents was filial piety. I think giving money to parents, grandparents is filial piety, and buying things for relatives is filial piety. In short, giving material feedback is "feedback" in my understanding. In fact, the most difficult thing about filial piety is "color difficulty."

"color difficulty" refers to what kind of expression and mentality has been maintained in the process of honoring parents and elders. It is difficult for ordinary people to be kind and humble to their parents.

Indeed, if a person is filial to his parents on the surface, but doesn't think so in his heart, I don't think such filial piety can be regarded as real filial piety.

I remember a passage in The Analects of Confucius: "Parents remonstrate several times, but they don't follow their wishes, respect their wishes and work tirelessly." This means that if you serve your parents and see that they have done something wrong, you should politely protest. If your parents don't want to listen, you should still respect them, don't offend them, just grieve in your heart and don't resent them. I think this embodies the core concept of filial piety, that is, "obedience", conforming to parents' will and not violently confronting. This shows that more than two thousand years ago, Confucius raised the issue of supporting parents to the height of caring for their mental health.

Sometimes I will think of my wayward coquetry (some are similar to derailment), sometimes I always like to impose my will on my parents, and sometimes I will blame the elderly for their mistakes. Although I am a close relative and unrestrained, this is filial piety, not real filial piety, but a rude attitude. Therefore, after understanding the meaning of "color difficulty", I feel very ashamed.

"Filial piety" is a knowing word, which means that the old man leans close to his son. Its basic meaning is that children should be good at serving and supporting their parents, which is the concrete embodiment of family virtue. Nowadays, with the development of the times and different conditions, the meaning of filial piety has been very different from before. For example, filial piety, in addition to parenting, also includes spiritual things such as respect, care and personality identity.

We can't deny that our country pays more and more attention to economic development, but the inheritance of traditional morality is gradually disappearing. In people's minds, money is becoming more and more important, which is quite dangerous. We should drink water and think about the source-where does human life come from? How to realize life?

I heard people say that Confucius' thoughts are out of date and not suitable for today's times, and so on ... I think that Confucius' thoughts can't be separated from Confucius' times, just as we can't tear flowers and plants to see if their lives are gorgeous, we should learn from Confucius' thoughts and learn the essence that is valuable to life and society. To sublimate "filial piety" into "love", I think a person should keep a true, kind and compassionate heart to do good deeds (including charity), whether to our beloved relatives or friends, neighbors or strangers, or to the society in a broad sense.

I think, even now, "filial piety" is of great significance to building a harmonious society.

Question 7: Why does Confucius think that filial piety is the highest virtue and "filial piety" is the second highest among all virtues? Confucius said, "Disciples are filial, and younger brothers are younger. They sincerely believe that they love people all the time, but they are kind. I have spare capacity to study literature. " -"Filial piety" ranks first.

2. Filial piety is the foundation of virtue (the bottom line of being a man)

A Confucius said, "He is also filial to his younger brother, but few people like to make mistakes." It is not easy to make mistakes, but it is not easy to make mistakes. Gentleman's business is based on inheritance and Taoism. Filial piety is also the foundation of benevolence! "(Filial piety is the foundation of being a human being)

Xia Zi said, "A moral person will change his color. Parents can do their best, and gentlemen can bring him to health. He keeps his word to his friends. Although I have not studied, I will call it learning. "

Filial piety often takes politics as the second pleasure. Xia Zi asks filial piety. Confucius said, "Color is difficult. Disciples who have something to do serve them; Have you ever thought that Mr. Wine and Food is filial? "

Question 8: Talk about Confucius' understanding of filial piety. What do you think is filial piety but not smooth? Spend more time with your parents when you are free. I have good things for my parents, but I can't listen to their comparison. They sometimes get confused.
