Poems commemorating Confucius' birthday

The poem commemorating Confucius' birthday is to hold a candle to recite the grave for nine years, live in seclusion in Nanshan and dream of Datong. Looking up, people compete for profits, and turning around, it is salty and vulgar.

Confucius introduced:

Kong's surname is Zi, whose name is Qiu. He was born in Lu State (now Qufu City, Shandong Province) in the Spring and Autumn Period, and his ancestral home was in Song State (now Xiayi County, Henan Province). Father and uncle, mother is strict. China was an ancient thinker, politician, educator and founder of Confucianism.

Confucius lost his father at the age of three, and his family fortune fell. In his early years, he was a small official in charge of granary and grazing. He is "not very polite" and has been familiar with the traditional etiquette system since childhood. When he was young, he was famous for his extensive knowledge of rites and music, engaged in Confucianism and made a living by organizing funerals. Middle-aged people get together for lectures and educational activities.

When he was 50 years old, he served as a scout in the state of Lu, and actively publicized his political opinions. Soon he abandoned his official position and went to the state of Lu because of disagreement with dignitaries, and traveled around the world with his disciples to publicize his political opinions and ideological theories, but to no avail. In his later years, he returned to Shandong, devoted himself to education, sorted out poems and books, and deleted Chunqiu, with the lifelong ambition of spreading six arts.

Confucius once led some disciples to travel around the world for fourteen years, revising the six classics (poetry, calligraphy, ceremony, music, Yijing, Spring and Autumn). After his death, his disciples and re-disciples recorded the words, deeds and thoughts of Confucius and his disciples and compiled The Analects. This book is regarded as a Confucian classic.

Confucius had a profound and lasting influence on later generations. His "benevolence" and "courtesy" have become important standards for national governance and personal cultivation; The civilian education thought of "teaching without class" enables Chinese civilization to be passed down indefinitely; The systematic arrangement of ancient documents not only entrusted their own ideals, but also made the cultural heritage of the Chinese nation have profound connotations.

The core content of Confucius' political thought is "courtesy" and "benevolence". In the general plan of governing the country, he advocated "governing the country by virtue", which is the noblest way to govern the country. This strategy of governing the country is also called "rule by virtue" or "rule by courtesy".

This strategy applies morality and politeness to the people, strictly follows the hierarchical system, and divides nobles and civilians into rulers and ruled, breaking an important original boundary between nobles and civilians.
