In The Analects of Confucius, Confucius was grounded, but why was he honored as a high saint?

Confucius was a great educator and thinker in ancient China, who founded the Confucian School. In addition to writing books, Confucius' state of mind is also daunting. Confucius made Zhuo Yuan's contribution to Chinese history and culture, and was honored as "the teacher of all ages". These achievements far exceed the ability of ordinary literati, so he is called a "saint".

The word saint has many definitions. Some people think that the so-called saint is just a title of respect for some individuals who have power or culture. For example, Confucius, Confucius sage.

But in fact, true saints have nothing to do with rights and skills. A true saint knows everything beyond the imagination of human mind. Real saints don't lie. True saints are extraordinary in the eyes of ordinary people. They are completely free from the bondage of human desires.

Some people may not believe that there will be such people in the world, but in fact, saints exist, and Buddha and Laozi are such people. The only evidence to prove the existence of saints is the behavior of saints recorded by the ancients.

Since Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty "exempted a hundred schools of thought from contending and respected Confucianism alone", Confucianism has become the most respected theory of rulers, and Confucius has also become the "most holy teacher" of all the philosophers in the world.

1. Confucius put forward the theory of "benevolence", requiring rulers to observe people's feelings, cherish people's strength and oppose tyranny and arbitrary punishment. His theory was later applied and reformed by feudal rulers and became the orthodox thought of China's feudal culture for more than two thousand years.

2. Confucius widely runs private schools, pays attention to "teaching students in accordance with their aptitude", and requires students to "review the old and learn new things" and develop an honest learning attitude.

3. In his later years, Confucius compiled ancient cultural classics, such as The Book of Songs and The Book of History. , but also compiled the Spring and Autumn Annals according to Lu's historical materials. Confucius' words and deeds were compiled into The Analects by his disciples.

4. Confucius annotated the Book of Changes, which made the Book of Changes, the general program of China culture, understood by later generations and passed on the ancient culture.

It is normal for grandfathers in this school to become physical totems in the hearts of believers, but it has little to do with the general public. They talk about their universe, and we drink our wine-there are boundaries between them. But Confucius' philosophy is not a general philosophy, but a secular philosophy, a philosophy of order and a philosophy of getting along with people. Where is the source of the world? What is the ultimate destination of human life? Machamp. If you don't know life, how can you know death?
