Features: Humanistic culture is a culture of self-reflection, and humanistic care reflects a high sense of cultural mission. The humanistic spirit points to a human ideal system centered on truth, goodness, and beauty, embodying the core essence of "what makes humans human." Humanistic education is the "usefulness of the useless," as its purpose lies in fostering the complete independence and self-perfection of humans as subjects of life and spirit. It delves deeply and broadly into the great questions of "how to be a person" and "what kind of person to be." The status of humanistic education, in its ultimate sense, reflects the position of freedom in our hearts, the position of the meaning of life in life, and the position of humans in the universe.
