People who know something about martial arts will get my points.

Military ethics

The word "martial virtue" first appeared in Zuo Zhuan Twelve Gong. Chu Zhuangwang said: "There are seven kinds of martial arts"-"forbidding violence, refusing soldiers, protecting the country, making meritorious deeds, comforting the people, making peace with the people and enriching the people". "Wu" here refers to the military. Because military and martial arts are homologous and cross-developed, later martial arts also accepted "martial virtue" as existence.

Our people have always respected politeness and morality. The ancients said: "On a large scale, there is virtue, followed by meritorious deeds, followed by words. Although it will not be abolished for a long time, this is called immortality. " "A scholar has a hundred lines, headed by virtue." Confucius set up four subjects in running a school-morality, speech, politics and literature, with "morality" as the head. Therefore, Wushu has always regarded the existence of excellent moral character as its main goal, thus guiding Wushu to advance along the right track: it has always put excellent moral character in the first place and made it the soul of Wushu; Excellent moral character has always been regarded as the most important criterion for evaluating martial arts figures, which inspires martial arts practitioners: excellent moral character has always been used as a powerful weapon to lash the bad atmosphere and scum in martial arts.

Wulin people all know that Wushu is dominated by people's thoughts, and whether it is used in the right place depends entirely on thoughts. As the saying goes, "the heart is right and the fist is right, but the heart is crooked and the fist is biased" (boxing proverb). According to this theory, they insist on teaching by others, teaching only those with decent conduct and not those with evil conduct. As the book "Boxing Guide" says: "Good secrets are given to save people from danger, and evil will spread to all beings." Some songs of Shaolin Temple repeatedly emphasize: "Loyalty and righteousness pass on the mantle" and "Shaolin is really kung fu, don't pass on the wicked. They insist that before learning martial arts, we must first learn and cultivate noble morality: "Practice martial arts first, practice morality first, and teach people later." "I haven't studied art or boxing first." (boxing proverb)

They insist that in the process of learning and practicing martial arts, we should always put the cultivation of noble character in the first place, and cultivate both morality and art, just as the boxing proverb says, "When practicing martial arts, we must obey the rules." Otherwise, "if you don't practice morality, you will be possessed" (a boxing proverb), which runs counter to the purpose of Wushu.

In order to cultivate noble morality, various sects have formulated many laws that require their disciples to strictly abide by. For example, Shaolin has "ten taboos in martial arts": "one taboo is laziness, the other taboo is grandiosity, the third taboo is impatience, the fourth taboo is excessiveness, the fifth taboo is debauchery, the sixth taboo is arrogance, the seventh taboo is lawsuit, the eighth taboo is false righteousness, the ninth taboo is contempt for teachers, and the tenth taboo is bullying the weak and fearing the hard.

All factions agree: "Kung Fu is limited, and benevolent people are invincible." Therefore, for those who have practiced certain martial arts, when encountering contradictions and conflicts, they are required to give full play to their moral role and solve the problems first; If it really doesn't work, use martial arts to subdue the other side, instead of using force alone to pre-empt. The so-called "Suntech does not have gravity, but focuses on defense" (a boxing proverb).

Wulin will not allow anyone to deceive others or even do evil by skill. They will be slightly reprimanded, expelled from their master and severely punished. Shaolin solemnly declared: "Those who have skills without virtue are not Shaolin!" And earnestly warned the monk: "Don't neglect your mission after success, and try to deceive others and forget your virtue."

All these fully show that Wulin people never look at Wushu from the perspective of pure Wushu, but always closely link Wushu with morality. They believe that "without virtue, there is no boxing" (boxing proverb), and insist on "talking about virtue and using force to talk about virtue" (boxing proverb).

So, what does martial arts include? The main points are:

1, loyal to the nation

Serving the country faithfully is one of the fine traditions of the Chinese nation. Throughout the ages, people with lofty ideals have regarded "an inch of mountains and rivers and an inch of gold" and "being willing to worry about the country." In the Wulin people, this excellent tradition has been clearly reflected. For example, there is a song in Shaolin Temple that says, "Punish evil and promote good, serve the country faithfully and create national achievements forever." "Hong Men" informs members; "My family practiced this technique (referring to Hong Jiaquan) because there were patriotic thoughts in it. I really want to be lazy and unable to serve the country: the East China Sea can move, and this ambition is not easy; Hone your bones and stay. " Many people in Wulin are like this, such as Xiang Yu who fought against Qin Fuchu, Li Guang who fought against Xiongnu, Yue Fei who fought against nomadic people, Qi Jiguang who fought against Japanese aggressors, Guan Tianpei who fought against British aggressors, and the Boxer Rebellion who "destroyed the foreign countries". All of them are outstanding heroes who love their country and family.

2. Help the people with justice

Another fine tradition of the Chinese nation is to speak out and help others.

Chen Ziang pointed out: "Sages are selfish, and they mourn in Yuanyuan (the people)." Fan Zhongyan has a famous saying, "Worry about the world first, and enjoy it later." Moreover, Confucius emphasized: "A gentleman is figurative." Mozi decided: "Nothing is more valuable than righteousness." These famous sayings are exactly what they show. There are similar sayings in Wulin, such as "Always help the people in distress" and "Punish evil and promote good, save the people and help the good" in Shaolin songs. As the Tang people said, "A chivalrous man must be righteous." Many people in Wulin have practiced this. Zhong Xiang, a farmer from Wuling in Song Dynasty, declared: "It is not good to divide the rich and the poor by law. I am a lawyer, and I will wait for the rich and the poor. " To this end, he led the peasant uprising, with the title of "Chu". Li Baicheng, who was born as a border soldier, also launched an uprising and overthrew the Ming Dynasty with the slogan "Give people equal land and free food". As for "it's a long way to go, Xiu Yuan Xi, draw out a sword to help", there are many more.

3. Brave sacrifice

If our people have always had the courage and spirit of sacrifice, then the army is even more so. "Give up your life and forget the national disaster, and see death in a blink of an eye"; This is their creed: "Marco's burial is a heroic thing, even if he dies, it will make him sweat." . Martial arts, like military affairs, are the cause of the brave, and it is especially necessary to sacrifice the spirit, so people in Wulin also advocate courage and sacrifice. Boxing proverbs say "one courage, two strength, three kung fu", "one courage, two eyes, three strength, four flashes", and put "courage" (courage) in the first place. They are not afraid of brutal invaders or cruel rulers; Not afraid of bullying or bandits. When they meet people who oppress the people, they will be like Nie Zheng, a swordsman in the Warring States Period. "The sword stabs Korea, and Han sits in the palace, holding a halberd to guard the attendants, which is unbearable." It's a straight man, and the upper level assassinated Xia Leiren, causing chaos. Nie Zheng shouted, dozens of people were killed. They died because they cut their eyes and slaughtered their intestines. "When you kill the enemy, you will rush to Qianbo and others: Changbai Mountain knows the world before, and it is purely backed by red brocade. It's a little longer than half a day, and the knife shines golden. Go up to eat roe deer and go down to eat cattle and sheep. Suddenly, when the government troops arrived, he swung his knife forward. For example, Liaodong is dead. What will happen if you behead him?

4. Honesty and modesty

There is a saying in The Doctrine of the Mean: "A sincere person is also a saint." Confucius advocated "keeping promises". There is an old saying: "Modesty is full of benefits." This shows that our people attach great importance to honesty and humility. Wulin people are also very particular about these. Sima Qian once strongly affirmed the Ranger: "His words must be faithful" and "His words must be sincere". "He survived (so that the dying can survive), and when he died (so that the dead can survive), he did not boast of his ability and humiliated his virtue." "Enough!" For Wulin people, "To be a good teacher, you have to visit Gao Peng", "The reason is unknown, and the famous teacher is delayed; The road is unclear, visit good friends. " (Boxing proverb) It's common practice to go with each other. Boxing proverbs also warn people: "There is still a day outside, and the whole game is lost." Boxing proverbs even say, "One move is a teacher." Boxing proverbs also advise people: "Let people manage without losing money." "Chang's Letter to Wude" also said: "Respect and be modest, and don't argue with others, you will be a gentleman." Shaolin school advocates: "It is better to be beaten than to be beaten first." "stunts are only for mobs, but they are good."

5. Diligence and hardship

Anyone who has visited Shaolin Temple, seeing the place where the monks stood in the practice hall (Thousand Buddhas Hall) sink a few inches deep, was moved by their hard work and hard practice spirit, and was sincerely amazed. Indeed, the reason why Shaolin Wushu is outstanding and famous in the world is entirely due to the hard work and hard practice of generations of monks. Their songs also illustrate this point: "seventy-two arts must be practiced hard, and they are not idle in spring, summer, autumn and winter;" Practice hundreds of times a day and become a persevering hero. " The same is true of other sects, so the boxing proverb says, "If you want to do something well, practice it from childhood to maturity." "Practice three volts in summer and three or nine in winter." This is also the embodiment of the traditional virtues of our people. "People's livelihood is diligent, but there is no shortage of diligence." "It's hard to get tired, and the jade girl succeeds." This kind of exposition embodies the virtue of our people.

The above five points are the basic connotation of Wushu. Of course, martial arts is also manifested in other aspects, so I won't go into details here.

It is of great practical significance to study Wushu morality today. On the one hand, it can help people who teach martial arts, on the other hand, it can also be used for reference by others.
