Why does Confucianism avoid talking about life and death? What do you think of the Confucian view of

In fact, it can be said that Confucianism does not know death, but Confucianism retains the reality of the fear of death in life. And the choice that makes Confucianism really face the righteousness of sacrificing life and forgetting death is purer for itself, and the experience in the world is more real, and only then can it refine its true heart. This is also the practice of Confucianism, the enlightenment of Confucianism.

Because the taproot of Confucianism is based on the knowledge of human beings, or more precisely, living people, most of what is talked about is how to behave in life when people are born. As for the destruction of people, it is not just a funeral and filial piety ceremony, and its starting point is also the perspective of the living. As for the deceased, Confucian sages all wrote books during their lifetimes, and everything they did was a human affair.

The Confucian concept of death can be said to be not to avoid death, not to fear death, to ignore life and death and to emphasize reason, emphasizing that he did his duty as a person during his life, and did not seek to avoid life and death, which actually has the meaning of pre-Qin Taoism following the nature of life and death.

It is not accurate to say that Confucianism is "reborn" but does not shy away from death. Mr. Hengqu said: "Save, I am in the world, I am dead, I am Ning."

Confucianism's attitude towards death as a reality advocates doing one's best to fulfill one's destiny, and the so-called one's own virtue is to give full play to one's innate virtues, and the so-called one's destiny is to recognize the irresistible objective inevitability.

Avoiding it is an inevitable choice. Everyone in the world will die, if Confucianism creates a fictitious hierarchical heavenly kingdom, there will be a situation where one country does not allow two monarchs, whether Confucianism wants to serve the monarch of the world, or the monarch of heaven, and the right of interpretation of the monarch of heaven is a big taboo. The fiction of a heavenly kingdom without hierarchical equality is contrary to the theory of the present world. ‍‍

Confucianism avoids talking about life and death, generally based on what Confucius told his students: Unknown life, safe knowledge of death? That's because it is not serious for Confucian scholars to talk about life and death before they know the great righteousness to be practiced in life, and before they can not apply the specific moral requirements of this great righteousness to the four bodies.

In fact, Confucianism does not shy away from talking about life and death at all, Confucius has a cloud: the morning hears the Tao, and it is okay to die at night! In short:

Confucianism uses a lifetime of moral practice to get close to the essence of morality - "Tao", to live for the Tao, and to die for the practice of the righteousness of the Tao! This is the Confucian concept of life and death!

The study of Confucianism is actually inherited from the ancient Wang Yaoshun and the Shang and Zhou dynasties, which is regarded as the official education system and the inheritance of the first educational concept. Because of the responsibility of political education, it is natural to teach people to reappear in the world and do practical things, if we teach people to die and be reborn, then the country will not be a country for a long time.

Confucius respects ghosts and gods and stays away, attaches great importance to the facts of the world, the responsibility of the world, and although the theory of benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith seems to be false, it is also for the purpose of regulating the world's actions, and it can be said that he is a pragmatist who advocates righteousness.

Confucianism and Cheng Zhu Lixue are in the same vein, and Cheng Zhu Lixue is a relatively perfect objective idealism, and objective idealism may be the truth. So Confucianism has long known about life and death, so why talk about it?

Confucianism is a culture of rebirth. As the "Yi Chuan" said: "The mandate of heaven is sexuality, the spontaneity is the Tao, and the cultivation of the Tao is teaching." "The way of heaven, the heart and nature are all endowed with the virtue of life, and Mencius also has "knowing heaven with all his heart".

The truth of life and death is contrary to its theoretical viewpoint, so at the moment of life and death, the image that Confucianism tried to maintain in its original form was shattered, and it was not as glorious as the image of the usual vulgar person at this moment, how can there be any morality that is more important than everything and more important than life, but the choice made at a certain moment is to cruelly give up everything, including life and love, No, why bullshit morality is packaged as morality out of necessity.

Confucianism is a rule of culture, not martial arts, so it does not talk about life and death, and says that a gentleman himself can but cannot make others aware of life and death.

Confucianism does not avoid talking about life, but only avoids talking about death. Confucius said: To know is to know, not to know is not to know, and to know is to know. Can you know when a person is dead? ——Wang Yangming said: Knowing that you can't do it is equivalent to not knowing. Talking about life and death, have you ever died?

Death and life have life, wealth is in the sky, how life is how death is, life is benevolence and righteousness, and death is benevolence and righteousness.

Confucianism doesn't see through life and death at all, so it attaches great importance to love

Because Confucianism cannot liberate life and death!

Confucianism attaches great importance to the present, emphasizes practice, and reveres life and death and stays away from it.

Because there is faith in the Five Constants of Confucianism, and no one who is alive has ever died, it is against good faith to talk about what happens after death.

Confucius said, you don't know life, you don't know death, which means that you don't understand when you are alive, how to talk about life and death, don't say death when you live, don't say live when you die, this is reality

Confucianism believes that death is the result of life, and needless to say, how to make the process of life meaningful is the right way: self-cultivation, family harmony, governing the country, and leveling the world.

The reason why Confucianism does not talk about life and death, the reason why Buddhism is born talks about life and death, and Taoism is born in the world to govern the six realms of life and death.

When did Confucianism avoid talking about life and death? Isn't "being at peace with the times" a Confucian thesis? That's it!

Let the people be afraid of death and be virtuous, and if the people are not afraid of life and death, they will be murderous!

Confucianism seeks truth from facts. Don't argue, don't fake, don't cheat.

Zigong asked Confucius: Does the deceased have knowledge? Will be ignorant?

Zi said: I want to say that I know what to do, and I will fear that my filial son will be sent to death if my grandson is not alive; I want to talk about the ignorance of death, and I will abandon the son of unfilial piety and not bury him I don't want to know the knowledge and ignorance of the dead, not the urgency of the present, and then I will know it

It's hard to say about life and death, Confucianism is just more pragmatic.

The core of Confucianism is to build an orderly and harmonious society, which solves the problems of human beings.

A person who is detached from life and death will still roll in the red dust? Enjoy life, drunk life, dream of death, love, love to die and live, right, lust for profit, jump into the well with ingots, and give up your life and money.

Confucius once said that if you don't know life, you don't know death. If you can't help people, you can do ghosts. And said to worship ghosts and gods and stay away. It can be seen that Confucianism does not deny the existence of ghosts and gods, but has a respectful attitude towards ghosts and gods.

Confucianism believes that human death is only the end of life, but the spirit can continue, and its core concept of "benevolence" is a life process of goodness, choosing goodness, and supreme goodness.

Death as understood by Taoism is nothing but a return to man, a return to the "Tao". Man comes from the "Word" and returns to the "Word".

The understanding of Taoism is more thorough and more profound, and Confucianism only speaks of one understanding, without corresponding explanations.

The above is the most profound and accurate expression in my opinion, for reference.
