To be a teacher, you must be honest before you can teach and educate people. This is the basis of teachers' morality.
The Book of Rites, also known as The Book of Rites of Little Wear and The Sutra of Little Wear, is said to have been written by seventy-two disciples of Confucius and their students, and compiled by Dai Sheng, a ritual and music scientist in the Western Han Dynasty. It is an important collection of laws and regulations in ancient China, with 20 volumes and 49 articles.
It mainly records the pre-Qin ritual system, which embodies the pre-Qin Confucian philosophical thoughts (such as the concept of heaven, world outlook and outlook on life), educational thoughts (such as personal cultivation, educational system, teaching methods and school management), political thoughts (such as educational politics, building a harmonious society, ritual system and criminal law) and aesthetic thoughts (such as the theory of material sense and the theory of harmony between rites and music), and is an important material for studying the pre-Qin society.
The Book of Rites is one of the three rites, one of the five classics and one of the thirteen classics. Since Zheng Xuan annotated The Book of Rites in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the status of The Book of Rites has been rising day by day, and it was honored as "Jing" in the Tang Dynasty. After the Song Dynasty, it ranked first in the "Three Rites".
The knowledge and ideological theory of ancient cultural history recorded in the Book of Rites have an important influence on the inheritance of Confucian culture, contemporary cultural education and moral cultivation, and the construction of a harmonious socialist society.
