Confucianism
Introduction:
Confucianism, also known as Ruism in some geographic region, is a coin with the two sides. One of the sides is a philosophy of life and a set of core belief, values and morals, the other side o f Confucianism is a religion so it is both a philosophy and religion which governs the behaviors and attitudes of people. This philosophy and religion is adopted majorly in China and its communities and most of the Chinese communities follow the Confucianism philosophy of life.
This is the sign which is used by the followers of this religion. Actually It is a way of living life and it was founded and taught by Confucius in 5th to 6th century BCE. According to an unofficial survey, adherent of this religion are about 5 to 6 million.
Beliefs:
As said before that it is more a philosophy of life and a set of beliefs, Confucianism is based on the two major values and those are “BENEVOLENCE” and “HUMANENESS”, these values are related to the character o a person and encompasses “LI” which means the ritual norms, “ZHONG” which means adherence to one’s original nature, “SHU” which means reciprocity and “XIAO” which means FILIAL PIETY and this last one is the most important concept practices by the Confucians and taught by the Confucianism religion.
Confucianism borrows the teaching s of some other religion in the other aspects of life and it is more focused and concentrated towards the character and ethical structure of a person’s life while following the teaching of Buddhism, Taoism and other religions in other aspects of life.
The main characteristics of this religion revolves around the optimism relating to the human nature and humanity and the basic theme behind the Confucianism teaching of the ethics were that ordinary human beings could be transformed into worthies and awe0insoiring sages if they are properly nurtured and a ethical man could not be identified and should not be identified from the outlooks and it would be notable to quote here that Confucius himself lived a very ordinary life and he was of the view that humans can be improved, taught, mentored and could reach a perfect level if passed through communal and personal endeavors. Heaven to Confucius and in his concept is regarded as the positive and personal force of a person while living in the universe and this rejects the supposition that Confucius was skeptic or agnostic.
Rectitude and Wisdom:
In Confucianism, there is term Gentleman, used for a person who is a role model and goal for every person, gentleman is a level of human ethics which is very near to the perfection and this level was defined by Confucius. He is an opposition of a small and mean or an unimportant person in Confucianism religion. This is a person who is perfect from almost all aspects of ethics and such person have high moral values such as he never gives up, a gentleman is always transparent, sincere and clear in his deeds, help others and is kind to the environment and to the community in.

Tutor Comment:
George: this would be a very nice summary of the ideas of Confucius, but again, it is not an exposition of the text. Once more, you need to show that and how you have read the text, by providing quotations and explanations of passages. You need to refer to the text itself (page numbers etc.) There are places where you get off track. Be sure in the future to keep the topic clear and relate every concept you attend to back to the central theme.
Topic: What is “human nature” for Confucius? What evidence does he give to show that
his views about human nature are correct?
Introduction
Confucius, also known as, Kong Zi, Zhong Ni or Kong Qiu was a wise philosopher and one of the most famous people in ancient China. He was a social philosopher and thinker whose teachings and philosophy have been of great impact to Korean, Japanese, Vietnamese and Chinese way of life. His teachings emphasized justice, correctness of social relationships, the morality of government and sincerity. A system of philosophy known as Confucianism has been developed from his thoughts. Doctrines such as Taoism or legalism during the Han Dynasty (206 BCE-220 CE) used Confucius’s values. He started a career as a teacher after his mother died, where he would travel about and instruct a small group of disciples that had gathered. He touched on issues like lack of moral standards and contemporary disorder in a time when feudalism had spread in China and vice and intrigue was widespread. To him his belief was that the one solution to that problem was to convert the people to go back to the principles and precepts of the sages of antiquity. He therefore taught his students on ancient classics. His theories and principles spread throughout China by his loyal disciples. The concept of time and its movement was one concept he regarded as being of great importance (Richey, 2005). Comment by Bruce Morito: Again, avoid this biographical material in assignments that ask specific questions.
The view of human nature according to Confucius was that through an individual’s personal and communal effort, he or she was improvable, teachable and perfectible especially with self-creation and self-cultivation. He emphasized on the development and cultivation of virtue and moral perfection. According to him, from an underlying attitude of humaneness, ritual and filial piety were the ways one should act toward others. His concept of humaneness was expressed in the Golden rule that stated that one should not do to others what they would not have them do to them or the Confucian version of the ethic of reciprocity. Confucius must have believed that all men were born with intrinsic similarities because according to him: “By nature men are similar; by practice men are wide apart” (Richey, 2005). Comment by Bruce Morito: You need to work on the primary texts and not rely on secondary sources.

CONFUCIANISM
Founder:
Confucius (FACT: CONFUCIUS = latinized form of the mandarin chinese title, KONG FU-TZU which means MASTER KONG) whose real name was Kong Qiu or Kong Zhongni.Better known in China as “Master Kong” (Chinese: Kongzi),
Confucius was a philosopher and teacher who lived from 551 to 479 B.C.E. whose influence upon East Asian intellectual and social history is immeasurable. Given his extraordinary impact on Chinese, Korean, Japanese, and Vietnamese thought, it is ironic that so little can be known about Confucius.
“So here's some more information about Confucius.”
His thoughts on ethics, good behaviour, and moral character were written down by his disciples in several books, the most important being the Lunyu (Conversations).
As a culturally symbolic figure, he has been alternately idealised, deified, dismissed, vilified, and rehabilitated over the millennia by both Asian and non-Asian thinkers and regimes.
Confucius wrote aphorisms and ethical models for everything
from family life to public life to educational systems. One of the
most broad and all-encompassing philosophical and ethical
frameworks bears his name: Confucianism.
“
How confucius come up with this ethics?
Confucius did not intend to found new religion, In fact confucius intention was to interpret and revive unnamed religion of the Zhoung Dynasty under which many people thought the ancient system of religious rule was bankrupt
Define confucianism:
The Golden rule of Confucianism is “Do not do unto others what you would not want others to do unto you.”
Confucianism is one of the most influential philosophies and belief systems in ancient china.
Confucianism is the way of life propagated by Confucius in the 6th–5th century BCE and followed by the Chinese people for more than two millennia. It remains the social code of the Chinese and continues to influence other countries, particularly Korea, Japan, and Vietnam.
The main idea of Confucianism is the importance of having a good moral character, which can then affect that person through the idea of “cosmic harmony”.
One side of Confucianism was the affirmation of accepted values and norms of behaviour in primary social institutions and basic human relationships. All human relationships involve a set of defined roles and mutual obligations; each participant should understand and conform to his/her proper role.
There are three types of Confucianism:
Classical Confucianism
Virtues regulate 5 Social Relationships (Wu Lun)
Neo-Confucianism
The revitalisation of Classical Confucianism
Emphasis on reshaping intellectual and spiritual learning
Neo-Confucians incorporated beliefs from Daoism and Buddhism to revive Confucianism
New Confucianism
Generation of New Confucians emerged in response to the movement/rebellion against tradition (1919, May the Fourth Movement)
Intellectuals tried to apply Confucian thought to Western democracy and science
There is no such thing as a typical entrepreneur. Some entrepreneurs are quiet and hard-working, while others are more outgoing and flamboyant. The key to being a successful entrepreneur lies in the ability to take an idea and then, through the process of innovation, develop it in such a way that it becomes a marketable product or service.
1. I. Background of Confucian
Confucius, born in the state of Lu in 551 BCE, was determined at a very young age to
become a scholar. At this time, warfare for supremacy among the various states in China had
begun, and Chinese social structure was deteriorating. Confucius sought a ruler who could bring
back justice and harmony into society as it had once existed in the earlier Zhou dynasty.
However, Confucius' desire for such an individual was never realized. Confucius taught from his
early twenties until his death at the age of 72 in 479BCE. After his death, Confucius' disciples
produced the Analects, a collection of his sayings which is the only record we possess of his
teachings.Confucianism, unlike other philosophies of ancient China, focuses primarily on the
human world, and the attainment of peace.
II. Confucius achievement
Confucius compiled one bible called “Liu Yi” mean the six arts; its objective is to find freedom
of politic and economic.
The six philosophy of Confucian are:
1. Yi scripture: is about to transmit the belonging or to inherit.
2. Che scripture: is about poetries to serve the beauty of nature.
3. Li scripture: is a celebrating of rituals.
4. Yo scripture: is a kind of music and song to feel better.
5. Chu scripture: is about history and record of events.
6. Chhu xiu or Spring:is about the history of Lu dynasty.
The philosophy of Confucian valued morality, humanity, and justice. According to his
philosophy, there are two kinds of people: The first kind of person is wisdom; he or she is

2. willing to abandon the interests for justice and his or her good reputation, and other group of
people is willing to abandon the justice and good reputation for their own interests.
Humanity: Confucian banded to have war in any circumstances; he had seen that war is
the source of inhumanity. He didn’t like the cruelty, inhumanity which the people did on
the animals, people such cough prisoner of the war and cut their hand, leg out and also
take the people to into the boiled water and to squeeze the criminal head till die.
Justice: Confucian had seen the justice in two ways; it is in society and family. For this,
the justice should exist in the family first and then society. Confucian knew that justice is
hidden in people’ hearts and the actions. So, to have the justice in the society, the first
step needs the have the justice in family and then society. Confucian concept is “Children
must listen to their parents and the orders.
Morality: Confucian told all the ranges of people in the society and families have to dare
to accept their own false to their family and law also. The criminals must be punished
according to their actions. If the serious crimes, he or she will be executed or dare to
suicide themselves. The philosophy of Confucian focusedon each person must have
guilty or embarrassed felling after he or she commit crimes or mistakes. People must
understand what the right, justice for lives.
Confucian formed one more principle called “Chin” mean “Love others”. Confucian
objective is to let the educated people love others’ interests and lives the same as theirs.
The articles in the principle are:
Offer a good deed, if returned back with the good things regarding as doing nothing.
Offer a good deed, if returned back with the bad things receiving with the two hands as
experiment.
Never impose on other what you would not choose for yourself.
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
Helping others and returned back with sorrow and suffering, escape from it before it
reach you.
Deal honestly with others and require honest in return.
That which hateful to you, do not do to your fellow.
III. The meaning of Confucian philosophy
3. The philosophy of Confucian is the development and the build of the human society. The
objective of the spread of his ideology is:
To educate people to escape from the misfortune believes to people love the standard of
living in society and find all the ways to restrain from the crises which most people faced
in their lives.
Confucian drew people’ attention not to fall in conviction.
He have taught people to depend on their strength and believe on their own will
especially use the considering to solve the problems.
The philosophy of Confucian is very far away from the religion because his philosophy
tented to the improvement of the present lives, not the post-lives.
The philosophy of Confucian is also used the word “God”, but God here, it does not
mean the God who is believed in the religion. The God of Confucian is the intelligence
and ethics.
The philosophy of Confucian is the order of the consciousness to seek the ways to release
the sorrows from lives, but not happiness, sin or merit for the next life.
IV. Virtue and politic principle of Confucian
Confucian’s virtue focused on mercy, compassion and righteous. He mentioned that all the
people in the society have their own works in order to have their own interests with morality
and righteous. Confucian called All of these actions are virtue, but if they do their work with
lacking of the ethic then their actions will be not right and lacking of virtue. On the other
hand, Confucian regarded the managing with virtue is better than managing with rule. He
expected the managing with virtue will process smoothly and fruitful. The good management
means make the society in order and prosperous. To have prosperous in society need to
improve the living standard of the family. To improve the living standard of the family need
to have solidarity of the families’ members. To have the solidarity of the families’ members
need to have strong commitment and good education. In this case mean that, when the people
are educated bring their standard of living are well managed. After the families are well
managed lead the society in order and finally will bring world with peace.
4. Confucian thought that people should do what they want and what the people want is
happiness. To obtain the happiness people dare to sacrifice everything. From the Confucian’s
idea, he state to the rule of the government that “Good government is the one that lead their
citizen to happiness”. To have happiness, Confucian mentioned to the management of the
state is like the management of the big family with a king is a father. The state is processed is
to serve the big family to have better lives. Through Confucian, he mentioned that the king
should feed, maintain, and teach to all the people whoare his children and grandchildren.
Confucian not appeal to all the members are equity in the society. He thinks in society must
have the higher class, middle class and lower class. There is not the democracy in the
philosophy of Confucian. He thinks there three kinds of people: know with study, known
without study, and unknown with study.Confucian is critical to middle class who not
accepted the self-position in the society.Confucian thinks that to have society in order at least
the people in the society well cooperated which he called put in the right position; it mean
that all the people in society need to have their own position in the society.The meaning in
here is that the manager is the manager, the minister is the minister, father is father, and son
is son. All the names have different positions and functions. If the names did not fulfill their
positions and functions correctly then it will be chaos. Ex: If the manager is not care about
the management skills even though he or she is popular; he or she will not be a good manager.
For conclusion, we have seen that the philosophy of Confucian is contributed a lot of
benefits to push the philosophical and moral politic to improve. What we are interested the
most is Confucian did not use his strength to solve the problem, but code of formulas is
basically used to solve the problem.
