How to learn college thinking?
Personality plays an important role in people's all-round development and even the development and progress of human society. China's traditional virtues are extensive and profound, and its specific connotation and training methods play an important role in cultivating and shaping the ideal personality of college students. Keywords: college students; Traditional virtue; Personality Cultivation China culture has distinct humanistic characteristics, people-oriented, and emphasizes the relationship between people, which belongs to ethical culture. China's ethical culture has played an active role in shaping the Chinese nation's character, cultivating China people's moral realm and ideal personality, stabilizing China's family and society, and continuing and developing the Chinese nation. China culture has the most developed ethics and philosophy of life in the world. These ethics and philosophy of life contain extremely rich and systematic virtues, which are called "the virtue of a gentleman" in feudal society. The so-called "gentleman's virtue" is the basic character and quality necessary for the ideal personality of the ancient Chinese nation. We creatively transform these traditional virtues, give modern scientific explanations, and combine traditional virtues with the spirit of the times, which can become new virtues, thus becoming the basic pursuit and quality of cultivating ideal personality for college students in the 2 1 century today. First, the connotation of personality The so-called personality is both an ethical concept and a psychological concept. It is a summary of people's temperament, cultivation and value. Its basic content includes cultural quality, moral cultivation, value pursuit, knowledge structure and other important factors. Undoubtedly, personality is built on a certain cultural and ethical basis, permeating the spirit and orientation of outlook on life, world, history, morality and values, which is manifested in people's behavior and communication. Therefore, personality is closely related to human activities, the practice of human history creation and the promotion of human civilization. Two. An Overview of Chinese Traditional Virtues During thousands of years of historical development, the Chinese nation has formed a long-standing fine virtue. These fine virtues are rich in connotation and profound, which are an inseparable part of Chinese life, an important spiritual wealth for the development of human civilization and a rich source for us to build socialist morality. These excellent traditional virtues can be summarized in the following aspects. (1) Set a lofty ideal and strive to realize it. China culture places special emphasis on ideals and realms, that is, ideals. Confucianism has designed the ideal of "harmony between man and nature", "inner sage and outer king" and "the world is public" for the Chinese nation. Taoism has designed such ideals as "Taoism is natural", "small country with few people" and "no monarch". Mohism put forward the idea of "love all but not attack". After Qin and Han Dynasties, people with lofty ideals in China, in the process of striving for the independence and prosperity of the Chinese nation, either interpreted these ideals with the spirit of the times or put forward new ones. The Revolution of 1911 led by Dr. Sun Yat-sen, a great revolutionary forerunner, overthrew the autocratic rule of the Qing Dynasty, in order to realize China's ideal of "Great Harmony". He believes that his theory of "Three People's Principles" conforms to the ideal of great harmony. Mao Zedong also appreciated the ideal of "Great Harmony". He called "Great Harmony in the World" the * * * doctrine, and strived for the realization of China's ideal of "Great Harmony" all his life. Everyone has his own aspirations, so we should set up lofty ideals and look forward to a beautiful realm. (2) Strengthen self-cultivation and carry forward the virtues of being strict with yourself and being lenient with others. Paying attention to personal cultivation is a remarkable feature of China culture. The important difference between China culture and western culture lies in its self-discipline and self-discipline. Confucius advocated: "A gentleman seeks for himself, while a villain seeks for others." This means that cultivated people are always strict with themselves, while uncultured people are very demanding of others. Therefore, he also warned people: "Bowing is self-respect, but lightly blaming twenty people is far from complaining!" "Bowing to yourself" means doing more self-criticism and "lightly blaming others". That is, criticizing others less, making more self-criticism and blaming others less can reduce opposition and complaints. Ceng Zi, Confucius' favorite pupil, summed up Confucius' thought of being strict with himself and paying attention to physical and mental cultivation as the motto guiding life: "Three rescues a day: Are you unfaithful to others?" Don't believe in making friends? Can you pass it on? When discussing the cultural differences between China and the West, Liang Shuming said: China culture uses kung fu internally (emphasizing self-cultivation), while western culture uses kung fu externally (advocating cognitive nature). Paying attention to life accomplishment is not only the characteristic of China culture, but also the virtue of the Chinese nation. Only by cultivating self-cultivation and improving their own quality can ordinary people succeed in their careers. China culture always puts life and self-cultivation first. (3) Emphasis on caring for the interests of the country and others and putting the interests of the people first. Confucius' benevolence, loyalty and forgiveness, and Mohism's all-embracing love and not attacking are all based on loving and caring for the interests of others. According to the principle of "loyalty and forgiveness", it is advocated that "people want to stand and succeed" and "don't do to others what you don't want them to do to you". This is kindness to others, that is, the spirit of "group harmony". Fan Zhongyan, an enlightened politician in the Northern Song Dynasty, summed up Mencius' people-oriented thought as a famous saying: "Worry about the world first, and then enjoy the world." Traditional virtues handed down for hundreds of years inspire enlightened politicians to care about the interests of the people. People with lofty ideals in history also regard this as a noble moral standard, benefiting the people and eliminating pests. (4) Adhere to the enterprising spirit of forgetting to eat and sleep, and striving for self-improvement. China culture has always been people-oriented, emphasizing people's initiative in nature and their subjective initiative. Biography of Zhouyi Gan Gua? 6? 1 The elephant said, "Heaven is strong, and a gentleman strives for self-improvement. "That is to say, heaven is vigorous and powerful, and the gentleman follows heaven and strives for self-improvement. It is the Chinese cultural spirit embodied in the Book of Changes, and it is also a traditional virtue accumulated for thousands of years. It is in this spirit that Confucius struggled all his life and forged his image as a great man. In his later years, he told his disciples about his never-ending spirit of struggle, saying, "He (referring to himself) is also a human being. He forgets to eat when he is angry, forgets his worries when he is happy, and doesn't know that his old age is coming! "Zeng Shen developed Confucius' thought and put forward the view that a gentleman has a long way to go. He said: "Scholars have a long way to go to strive for self-improvement. Isn't it important to think that benevolence is your responsibility? Not far from death, right? " Since then, "a gentleman has a long way to go" and "would rather die than surrender" have become the traditional virtues of Chinese culture, inspiring tens of millions of people with lofty ideals to persist in their ideals and careers for life. (V) Carrying forward the virtues of being rich and unyielding "being rich and unyielding and unyielding" has always been regarded as the noble quality and traditional virtue of people with lofty ideals and ideals who adhere to justice, truth, ideals and beliefs. This virtue inspired many Chinese sons and daughters to create an epic great cause, and also wrote a new moving movement in the history of Chinese culture. (6) Carrying forward the virtue of respecting teachers and valuing morality is the fundamental spirit of Chinese culture and the traditional virtue of the Chinese nation. Some people call China culture "filial piety culture", which makes sense. Of course, we should also analyze and identify the filial piety advocated by the feudal ruling class. However, the basic idea of filial piety is an ethical norm accumulated by adjusting and harmonizing family relations for thousands of years, which has become a traditional virtue recognized by the Chinese nation throughout the ages and should still be inherited and carried forward today. Respecting teachers and stressing morality is another important traditional virtue of the Chinese nation. In ancient China, "heaven, earth, monarch, family and teacher" always stood side by side, which not only reflected the characteristics of China culture, but also explained the tradition of "respecting teachers and attaching importance to Taoism". Fourthly, it is concrete and realistic to mold ideal personality with the help of excellent traditions. Confucianism has the ideal personality of Confucianism, Taoism has the ideal personality of Taoism, Mohism has the ideal personality of Mohism, ancient times has the ideal personality, modern times has the ideal personality, the East has the ideal personality of the East, and the West has the ideal personality of the West. Modern ideal personality must be integrated and reformed on the basis of inheriting the excellent heritage of ancient ideal personality and absorbing the desirable components of western ideal personality. This is the creative transformation of ancient ideal personality. Only by completing the creative transformation of ancient ideal personality can modern ideal personality be achieved. The ideal personality of Confucianism is the personality of "benevolent", and the person who becomes "benevolent" is also the ideal personality, that is, the so-called "sage" personality. The requirements of "benevolence" are various. He can achieve "the beauty of adults, not the evil of adults", and what can "love the public" and "serve the people" is "benevolence". It is not easy to "love the people" and "serve the people". Among them, the most important ones are "self-denial" and "loyalty and forgiveness." Self-denial "is to control your own selfish desires." The specific requirement is "see no evil, don't listen if you are indecent, don't speak if you are indecent, and don't move if you are indecent". The way of loyalty and forgiveness needs courtesy, tolerance, faithfulness, sensitivity, benefit, softness, kindness, courtesy, frugality and comparison, and can also be realized by "doing your best until you die" and "arguing without arguing". The cultural and moral qualities of these ideal personalities were ideal in ancient times, but they are not enough today. They're just one side. The ideal personality of Taoism is the personality that can "embody Tao", that is, the personality of "real person" or "person". The so-called "body way" or "real person" personality is a personality that can conform to nature, want nothing and be content with happiness. This is ideal in Taoist view. However, it seems that it is not enough today, and they all lack modern consciousness and spirit. Modern new ideal personality should have not only traditional virtues, but also modern consciousness and spirit of the times, as well as modern science and management knowledge. Modern consciousness and spirit of the times include the following four aspects: competition consciousness, innovation consciousness, risk consciousness and global consciousness. Practically speaking, these four kinds of consciousness are lacking in China's inherent traditional culture. To cultivate cross-century talents and mold new ideal personality, we must inherit and carry forward traditional virtues, combine modern consciousness and spirit of the times, and master modern science and management knowledge. Under this condition, we should establish a new outlook on life, world view, morality, values, history, aesthetics and this kind of personality, and be good at mediating the relationship between individual and environment, individual and whole, need and dedication, desire and reality. It not only shows the spirit of self-esteem, self-love, self-confidence, self-improvement and progress, but also has the quality of openness, innovation, competition and struggle, and has a sense of urgency. This is the ideal personality of 2 1 century that we want to cultivate. How to cultivate a new ideal personality? That is, the way to cultivate ideal personality. Confucius called it "the benevolent side". "He talked a lot in The Analects. To sum up, there are only three methods: study, practice and introspection, which still have reference and inspiration for us today. Confucius said, "In a threesome, there must be a teacher. Follow the chosen ones, and change the bad ones. He also said: "If you have proper methods, you can say that you are eager to learn. "These are concrete ways to learn good moral character. Confucius asked his disciples not only to learn, but also to emphasize execution. How to implement it? He advocates taking his side as an example and practicing by himself. He said: "If you can make a close analogy, you can say that you are benevolent. "What do you mean by" can extrapolate "? It is to practice benevolence and righteousness by taking the people around us as examples and the benevolent people around us as examples. This is the way to practice kindness. Confucianism attaches the most importance to the cultivation method of introspection. Ceng Zi said, "I will save myself three times a day: How loyal are you to others? "Making friends is not credible? Can't you learn? " Confucianism advocates self-cultivation, and the core of self-cultivation lies in the ability to often do self-reflection with the ethics of benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and trust. The basic classic of Confucianism, University, emphasizes: "From Tian Zi to Shu Ren, all of them are based on self-cultivation." Why emphasize self-cultivation? The article "University" explains clearly: "Self-righteousness after sincerity, self-righteousness after self-cultivation, family harmony after self-cultivation, national governance after family harmony, and world peace after national governance." It turns out that self-cultivation can achieve the effect of managing the country and leveling the world. The article "The Doctrine of the Mean" calls this method of self-cultivation "cautious independence", and the so-called "gentleman is cautious independence". In today's words, he is a cultured person who often makes self-criticism and sweeps away the dust on his mind. Although the above-mentioned Confucian cultivation methods are divorced from reality today, its spirit of self-respect, self-respect and self-discipline still has guiding and enlightening significance for us today. I hope that young friends will inherit and carry forward the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation, enhance their modern consciousness, cultivate a new ideal personality, stand at the commanding heights at the turn of the century, make more contributions to the modernization of China and the promotion of human civilization, and do their best until they die. I found the result.
