Eight goals: discipline, knowledge, honesty, honesty, self-cultivation, keeping the family in order, governing the country and leveling the world.
"University" puts forward "three programs" and "eight items", emphasizing that self-cultivation is the premise of governing people, and the purpose of self-cultivation is to keep the family in order, govern the country and level the world, and expounds the internal relationship between governing the country and level the world and personal moral cultivation.
Three cardinal guides are the gist of the university program and the goal of Confucianism. The so-called "eight eyes" refers to discipline, knowledge, sincerity, integrity, self-cultivation, keeping the family in order, governing the country and leveling the world. It is not only an introductory kung fu designed to realize the "three cardinal guides", but also a life learning ladder displayed by Confucianism.
Extended data:
The theory of three cardinal guides and eight orders embodies the fundamental thought of Confucianism, an ancient thinker in China, fully affirms people's social attributes, emphasizes people's role in society and education, and concludes that a person's accomplishment (that is, what we call comprehensive quality today) is the standard to measure the size of his career.
And provide lofty guidance for what a person wants to achieve and what direction to take. It is this kind of thought that created the brilliant thought of China's later intellectuals, that is, "if you are rich, you will help the world, and if you are poor, you will be immune to it".
