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 profound understanding of the importance of culture. Culture is indeed the fundamental mark that distinguishes humans from other beings and makes humanity what it is. Humans create culture, and culture, in turn, shapes humans. In this sense, one can also say that humans are cultural beings.
