On the Practical Significance of Confucius Thought 1 As a spiritual leader and saint in ancient China for many years, the Confucian culture he founded is regarded as the pillar and blood of China traditional culture. Although in today's society, there are not many people who take Confucius' words as the code of conduct and handling affairs, we have to admit that Confucius' thoughts have precipitated into a deep cultural psychology of China people, which determines that China's fate is an introverted development model. However, many propositions and categories of Confucian culture we now understand are significantly different from Confucius' thoughts, not only because Confucian culture has experienced the change of dynasties, but also because we are constantly absorbing other cultures and impacting our inherent thoughts.

In today's society, conflicts of interest, material overflow, people's concept of caring for themselves and others is getting weaker and weaker, and many of China's traditional ideological virtues become a mere formality, and even gradually decline, which people have to sigh. In the so-called "chopsticks cultural circle" which is deeply influenced by Confucian culture, the concept of filial piety has always been regarded as the most basic principle and etiquette of being a man. In today's era, when many opinions about China's cultural dating and China's lack of spiritual support are increasingly widespread, what we need is to find the ideological source for the broad masses of China people to settle down. In my opinion, what is most easily advocated and recognized at this point is the reference to filial piety in Confucius' thought. Because this is something that everyone can experience and do, and this concept has taken root in our hearts and is more acceptable. Like Confucius' thought in those days, through educating people about the filial love of their parents, we gradually spread this love to everyone in society, let people learn "compassion" and "unbearable heart", and make it a sincere love that meets the needs of the world. Although love is near and far away, as long as educated people have the idea of pushing themselves and others, it is easy to integrate all people in society, stimulate people's inner pride and sense of responsibility for their own nation, and make the whole nation have centripetal force, thus maintaining all people in society and maintaining social stability, stability and harmony.

Of course, in the filial piety advocated by Confucius, there are also places that stick to superficial forms, such as strictly requiring people to mourn for three years; Lack of equality and democracy, such as blind obedience to parents. Although Confucius' serious and solemn attitude towards filial piety can be seen from these places, in these respects, people today don't have to stick to the form pedantically, inherit the main part of Confucius' thought, accept the essence of filial piety with a flexible view, and apply it to today's society in order to achieve faster social development.

Confucius' thought is all-encompassing, and the thought of "benevolence" is the core of his thought, the highest realm of human cultivation, and the highest criterion to guide people's life actions and measure people's life behaviors. Confucius set a high standard for this. He thinks Yao Shun is hard to do, and he is even more unworthy. Therefore, most of the thought of "benevolence" is only put forward as an ideal goal, and people are only required to work hard in this direction. Filial piety is mentioned as the fundamental position of "benevolence", which also shows that Confucius attaches importance to filial piety. Moreover, filial piety is also an achievable behavior in Confucius' thought, which embodies the unshirkable responsibility in human development. Therefore, even now, it is of far-reaching significance to put forward filial piety and standardize people's speech and behavior.

On the practical significance of Confucius' thought. Scientific theoretical research can make things develop in a positive direction. The research object of this paper is the enlightenment of Confucius' educational thought to modern physical education in China. With reference to relevant research methods such as history and philosophy, we can consult classic works related to Confucius, such as The Analects compiled by Confucius disciples. I studied the information about traditional physical education and physical education teaching in the field of physical education, humbly consulted Professor Xie Yifei, Associate Professor Tang Xiaohui and Associate Professor He of Shandong Normal University, listened to their guidance, made theoretical logical reasoning and scientific analysis on the principles on which Confucius' educational thought was based and followed in the collected documents, and analyzed Confucius' educational thought and its characteristics, and thought that Confucius' educational thought would have certain influence on our future physical education teaching in all aspects.

Confucius' educational thoughts formed in more than 40 years' teaching practice contain rich educational experience and have a great influence on China's education. He advocated the teaching concept of "teaching students in accordance with their aptitude", the teaching equality concept of "teaching without distinction", correctly handling the relationship between teachers and students of "learning from each other", the overall development concept and the teaching content of "six arts", and the educational content of Confucius' educational practice concept of "learning-thinking-doing", which had a far-reaching impact on physical education in ancient and modern times. Under the urgent situation that the concept of modern physical education is constantly updated, we should deeply study Confucius' educational thought and learn from it. Combining with the present situation of physical education, summarizing its meaningful enlightenment to physical education can better promote the development of physical education.

This paper holds that Confucius' educational thought has a great enlightening effect on modern physical education teaching in China, and its role has penetrated into all aspects of physical education teaching. In the later teaching development of Confucius, the "learning-thinking-doing" and "heuristic" teaching modes of Confucius created a brand-new education mode for China education. In his educational career, Confucius is the earliest, most complete and comprehensive method of teaching students in accordance with their aptitude in the world.

Confucius' educational thought should undoubtedly be democratic, progressive and positive. His educational thought made some achievements at that time and later society, and formed the famous "East Asian Cultural Circle" in Sui and Tang Dynasties, with Confucius' Confucianism as its core. Up to now, Confucianism has exerted an inestimable influence on the political, economic and cultural development of East Asian countries such as Singapore, South Korea and Japan, among which Confucius' educational thought has contributed greatly. Therefore, under the vigorous development of socialist modernization and the strategic goal of "building a well-off society in an all-round way", it is an urgent problem for us to revive Confucius' educational thought at the dawn of the new century and improve the overall cultural quality and moral level of the whole people. Cultural people who are interested in inheriting and carrying forward China's traditional culture and are willing to devote their youth and life to the modernization of the motherland should bravely shoulder this burden and let the treasures of China's traditional culture shine again!

Confucius was a great educator in ancient China. In the long-term educational practice, Confucius has accumulated rich teaching experience and put forward valuable educational ideas and teaching principles such as "teaching without distinction", "teaching students in accordance with their aptitude", "inspiring and inducing" and "combining learning with thinking". These experiences and opinions not only have a far-reaching impact on the social development in the past, but also have a positive role in promoting how to cultivate students' learning interest, learning attitude and learning habits in physical education teaching today, and how to give full play to students' main role and develop students' personality. Based on the enlightenment of Confucius' educational thought to modern physical education, this paper aims to better grasp the laws of physical education and promote the improvement of physical education level.
