3. Traditional culture emphasizes "harmony between man and nature". Man originates from heaven and earth and is a derivative of heaven and earth, so the way of heaven and earth is the way of life. Self-improvement, morality, is to let people follow the example of heaven and earth and make continuous efforts in learning and doing. Many ancient scholars can deeply understand this spirit and consciously practice it. For example, Confucius said that he "forgot to eat when he was angry, but forgot to worry when he was happy, and he didn't know that old age was coming." Confucius once said to the students by the river: "The deceased is like a husband, staying up all night." It is to encourage them to imitate nature, cherish time and strive for progress.
