To treat traditional culture, we should take its essence and discard its dross , what is the standa

As a national treasure, traditional culture represents the wisdom and history of the nation. In dealing with traditional culture, we should "take its essence and discard its dross". What is the criterion of "good" and "dross"?

We need to recognize that the essence of traditional culture refers to those things that have deep connotations and values. For example, excellent passages and classics in traditional literary works, as well as art forms that embody wisdom and aesthetics, etc. These are all things that we should value and pass on.

The dross of traditional culture refers to those contents that are outdated, backward, superstitious or do not meet the needs of the development of the times. For example, some feudal superstitious concepts, overly conservative behaviors, and even abuse of power to suppress human freedom, etc. These are things that we should abandon and resist.

It is not easy for a society to find the criteria for "good" and "dross". Because this standard may change subtly due to the changing times. But we can measure it in the following ways:

We need to pay attention to science and rationality. Whether some concepts and behaviors in traditional culture conform to scientific principles and the needs of human development is an important criterion for us to judge.

We need to focus on humanity and respect for the individual. Whether there is respect and protection of individual rights and interests in traditional culture, as well as the presentation and embodiment of human values, is also one of the important criteria for our judgment.

Thirdly, we need to consider the relationship between inheritance and innovation. As a valuable heritage, we should not simply abandon everything, but should inject innovative elements into the inheritance. Only in the process of combining tradition and modernity can culture be vigorous and vigorous.

We also need to focus on practicality and sustainability. Contemporary society needs to meet people's needs and spiritual pursuits, so those things that have practical and positive significance in traditional culture should be "taken from the essence" and left behind.

When dealing with traditional culture, we must learn to examine, distinguish, and take its essence and discard its dross. It is also necessary to adhere to the standards of scientific reasonableness, respect for human nature, inheritance and innovation, and practicality and sustainability, so that traditional culture can shine more dazzlingly. Through such efforts, we can better inherit and develop traditional culture, so that it can bloom with new vitality in modern society.

<> "Take the essence and remove the dross": Lu Xun mentioned the meaning of "removing the dross and taking the essence" in his book "Take-it-ism" published on June 7, 1934, but did not explicitly use this term.

Essence: the best part of things; Dregs: Distiller's grains, okara and the like, metaphorically referring to useless things. Absorb the best of things and discard the bad and useless things of things.

For individuals, the attitude and method of accepting foreign or new cultures or things. Accept what is good and useful, discard what is useless and harmful, and digest what is suitable for yourself.

取其精,去其岕岕, is a Chinese word, pinyin is [qù qí zāo pò qǔ qí jīng huá]. Essence: the best part of things; Dregs:

Things like sake lees and bean dregs refer to useless things. Absorb the best of things and discard the bad and useless things of things. It means to learn from each other's strengths.

Synonyms: take the essence with macro, go to the coarse and take the fine, and remove the turnip.

1, originated from Lu Xun's "Take-it-ism".

2, *** said"The foreign is used in China, and the ancient is used in the present","Take the essence and remove the dross",

1. The parts of the excellent traditional Chinese culture that do not meet the needs of the development of the times, but can still serve the modernization after transformation, are neither inherited or completely abandoned, but are brought forth through the old and creatively transformed. Socialist culture with Chinese characteristics is a modern culture with a distinctive character of the times.

It is not a simple repetition and imitation of traditional culture, but a combination of present, future-oriented innovation, creation and regeneration. The so-called push is based on the contemporary, discarding those things that are not suitable for today's needs; The so-called innovation means to clean up and refine the traditional culture at this level, and actively create new content and forms to give it new vitality.

2. For the excellent traditional Chinese culture, the most effective inheritance and protection is to keep pace with the times and continue to develop and innovate. That is, to transform the connotations and outdated forms of expression that still have reference value today, give them new connotations of the times and modern forms of expression, activate their vitality, and let Chinese culture show its permanent charm and style of the times.

3. We must actively inherit the essence of China's excellent traditional culture that meets the needs of the development of the times and can serve the modernization drive, carry out innovative development, and make it constantly carry forward. The national spirit is the most essential and concentrated embodiment of national culture and the soul of national culture.

Inheriting and carrying forward this national spirit is of great practical significance at present. We should continue to draw strength from the fine traditional culture of the Chinese nation and the fine traditions formed by our party during the period of revolution, construction, and reform, actively inherit the essence of the traditional culture that meets the needs of the development of the times and can serve the modernization drive, and constantly carry out innovative development.

Integrate the modern connotation into the national spirit, reshape the spirit of contemporary China, form the spiritual strength of the whole nation to strive for progress and the spiritual bond of unity and harmony, and unite and inspire the Chinese nation to unite and strive for national prosperity and national rejuvenation.

Yes, even if it is dross, it is also a kind of culture and a kind of inheritance, after all, after so many years of baptism, it is natural that it can continue to this day.

When it comes to the "dross of Chinese culture", there will be countless people who cite countless examples. However, no matter how many examples are given, none of the people who give examples have explained the age of the formation of those "dross".

That's right, no matter how many examples are cited, most of them are after the prevalence of Zhu Cheng's science. Read the history of the Song Dynasty, read the history of the Tang Dynasty, and think about it carefully, what was the dross before Zhu Chengli's science? Whether women are bound with small feet or servile, what does it have to do with the Tang Dynasty and the Northern Song Dynasty?

Some people retort that does the concubinage system count? Absolutely. However, the status of women in other civilizations of the same period was very high?

It makes no sense to enumerate Elizabeth I and Catherine II, whose time is the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries, and we have been poisoned by Zhu Chengli and colonized by the Tartars.

Some people say that the refutation of the three outlines and the five permanent programs count, do they count? Absolutely. However, in today's society, where county magistrates and mayors and governors are working against each other, do you still want political order?

The son started beating Lao Tzu, do you want to be filial piety? Nowadays, men and women are equal, and the divorce rate is skyrocketing. Respect for authority is not only an expression of human animal nature, but also a manifestation of civilization, otherwise, the whole world will be chaotic.

There are many other examples like the above, and the reason why modern people have the impression that "there is a lot of dross in Chinese culture" comes from the group of scholars and literati in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China.

The 100-year humiliation that followed 1840 made the intellectuals of the time actively think about why the once great power was pressed to the ground and rubbed. The result is that there is dross in our culture.

As I said above, those intellectuals didn't understand that most of the dross they hated came from after Zhu Cheng's science, but they completely denied the civilization before the Southern Song Dynasty, which is very brainless. What's even more brainless is that modern people also continue to follow the trend and have no opinions of their own.

For example, feudal superstition: the superstition of the ancients before the Song Dynasty was superstition because of fear of heaven and earth, fear of death, and fear of ancestors; Superstition after the Song Dynasty is what modern people understand as superstition due to ignorance. For example, "Xianglin Sister-in-law".

There is another point that the intellectuals at that time did not understand: we are an agrarian civilization, and the invaders originated from the maritime civilization. The maritime civilization pays attention to aggression, and they pay attention to the natural sciences that can make the invasion smoother, while we pay attention to the humanities, and everyone takes a different path.

When two civilizations meet, we naturally suffer.

In short, we must have cultural self-confidence, and we must have the brain to learn some of the culture left by our ancestors.

I don't think there is a need to keep it, since it is said to be dross, it is something that is not good for people, and there is no need to keep such a culture at all, such as small feet, patriarchy, etc.

Look at it with a normal mind. There is no Chinese to have essence and dross, since it is dross, there is no need to keep it.
