At the beginning of the university, the way of the university is to show virtue, be close to the people and stop at perfection. This is the pursuit of the three cardinal guides and eight aims of Confucianism. The so-called "three cardinal guides" means to point out morality, be close to the people and stop at perfection. This is the gist of the program of "University" 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. Looking at the Four Books and Five Classics, we will find that all the theories of Confucianism actually develop along these three cardinal guides and eight orders.
