Features: Human life exists within culture, just as humans cannot live without air. The Book of Changes says: "Observe the celestial patterns to understand temporal changes; observe human culture to transform the world." Whether the Chinese term 'culture' originates from this, this passage at least demonstrates that our ancestors have always had a clear and profoundly deep understanding of the importance of culture. Culture is indeed the fundamental mark that makes humans human and humanity what it is. Humans create culture, and culture also creates humans. In this sense, one can also say that humans are cultural beings.
