——"Actively Cultivating and Practicing the Core Values of Socialism from an Early Age-Speech at the Symposium Hosted by the Ethnic Primary School in Haidian District, Beijing" and other articles

■Interpretation

On the eve of June 1, 2014, Comrade Xi Jinping held a symposium at Beijing Nationalities Primary School, encouraging children to "have an example in their hearts", learn heroes, advanced figures, and beautiful things, and develop good ideological and moral pursuits in learning. The quotation from the Analects is precisely to illustrate that in life, we should take others as a mirror, learn from the good ones, and carry them forward; If there is a mistake, it shall be corrected. Comrade Mao Zedong once said, "Typology itself is a kind of political force." The "correct truth" is in the air, and it is necessary to make the public feel the same way, and the example is more important than the words, and the concrete is stronger than the abstract, and "an example is better than the 20 teachings in the book." Whether it is a space hero, an Olympic champion, a great scientist, a model worker, a young volunteer, or those good people who help others, are honest and trustworthy, dedicated and dedicated, filial piety and love for their relatives, they can all become spiritual models and moral benchmarks, helping us to find gaps, shortcomings, and directions, so as to achieve the effect of "seeing the wise and thinking together".

■Original text

Zi said: "See the virtuous and think together, and see the unvirtuous and introspect yourself." ”

——(Spring and Autumn) Confucius, "The Analects of Liren"

■Definition

"Seeing the virtuous and thinking together, seeing the unvirtuous and introspecting inward" talks about the issue of moral cultivation. Sage: The adjective is used as a noun, a sage, a person who has both ability and integrity. Qi: Same. Inner: the orientation noun as an adverbial, in the heart. This sentence of Confucius has become the motto of Confucianism in later generations of self-cultivation and virtue, which means that we should learn from the strengths of others to make up for our own shortcomings, and we must learn from the mistakes of others and not repeat the mistakes of the past.

"Seeing the wise and thinking together" shows the exemplary role of role models; "Seeing the unvirtuous and introspecting inward" is to illustrate the typical warning role of the opposite. "Self-reflection" is self-reflection and introspection, and its purpose is as Zhu Xi said in the "Notes on the Four Books": "Examine one's body every day, change it if there is one, and encourage it if there is none." In the Analects of Confucius, Confucius has a similar expression: "If you are a threesome, you must have my teacher." Choose those who are good and follow them, and change those who are not good. "Choosing the good and following it is to "see the wise and think together"; If you are not good, you should change it, that is, "see the unvirtuous and introspect yourself".

"Xi Jinping's Dictionary (First Edition)" sees the virtuous and thinks together, and sees the unvirtuous and introspects. I am hitting it in my hand, please wait a moment,
