Confucianism is the oldest and most influential school of thought in China. For two thousand years, it has formed the grand hall of traditional Chinese society with its profound depth, while also maintaining a close connection with people's social lives through its practical and applicable spirit. Confucianism has evolved over a long period, changing with the times, yet it continues to exert a powerful influence on the lifestyle of the Chinese people. "Although Zhou was an old state, its mandate was renewal," reflects not only the vitality of Chinese society but also the philosophical spirit of enduring renewal in Confucianism. Confucianism embodies a dignified and balanced temperament rather than an extreme or narrow-minded attitude of resistance. Because Confucianism is deeply rooted in the excellent traditions of Chinese culture, it has the lifeblood of the nation as its foundation. Confucianism can both stabilize life and strengthen society. Confucianism represents the life and national spirit of the Chinese nation.
