The reason why Confucius and The Analects of Confucius are respected (in the form of prose)

Confucius is called "the most holy teacher", because he is the first person who initiated civilian education in the 5,000-year cultural history of China, and he is the most outstanding. Therefore, the main reason why Confucius is revered is his breakthrough contribution to education.

In the cultural history of China, The Analects of Confucius and eight other original classics are listed as four books and five classics. It is not only the first of the four books, but also a comprehensive summary and inheritance of the valuable teaching about treating people in the Five Classics. For more than 2,000 years, The Analects of Confucius has had an inestimable influence on the shaping of China people's national character, and has always played a guiding role in the pursuit of personal life value. Therefore, Qian Mu, a famous scholar, called The Analects of Confucius "China's Bible" and thought it was a must-read for everyone in China.
