Online Cloud Classroom: The Story of Confucius (1)

The online course "The Story of Confucius" consists of four chapters, which are studious, critical, benevolent and honest. Today, I would like to introduce to you the first course "Life depends on diligence, not Learning How to Gain: The Diligent Study of Confucius".

"Heaven does not give birth to Zhongni, and the ages are as long as night." The reason why Confucius can contribute to human civilization comes from his diligent study. The hard environment honed his will, and the hard work bore rich fruits. Confucius finally became a world-famous educator, thinker and statesman.

In the Analects of Confucius: Learning and Learning, Confucius said, "The superior man has no desire to satisfy his food, no desire to live in peace, and is quick in things but careful in words. Confucius believed that a gentleman should not be greedy for material comforts, but focus on doing meaningful things and pursuing truth. So both the spirit of diligence, and a wise method, can be counted as love of learning. This is the teachings of Confucius to his students, but also the true portrayal of Confucius' lifelong diligent spirit.

A "Analects of Confucius" spread through the ages, a teacher for generations of teachers, Chinese benevolence and wisdom, two thousand years of character, are hidden in the dialogue between the teacher and his students. The essence of Chinese civilization represented by the Analects of Confucius is still staring at us in the time and space of history. Generation after generation, we are reading the Analects of Confucius, which is to learn from Confucius. Let us draw the power of the heart from it and learn the wisdom of studying hard.
