Zhao Yiwu and China Institute of political science and law, the Confucianism

Beijing, China University of Political Science and Law Xueyuan Road campus corner, International Confucian academy. The newly opened book room, a few students are turned by reading code, eager to learn. Compared with two years ago school was set up when the warm, this time all has been quiet moving in the right direction.

Many affairs put aside, Zhao Yiwu often come here, or to attend the lecture, or to participate in the meeting. For the academic expectations of Confucianism research "heights", he had a special feeling.

"People have donated 10000000 yuan to build a Confucian Academy!" two years ago, with the establishment of the International School of Confucianism, the news that they are one of the earthquake. News lead, President Zhao Yiwu is deputy director of the International Federation of Confucianism -- long, Beijing natong medical group, an old professor's "re Connaught light benefit, sincere young man of few words".

Talk about this 10000000 yuan has caused shock, Zhao Yiwu deep feeling: "look for other public welfare donations, billion often have; but in the field, 10000000 yuan is rare. This huge contrast, reflected in Confucianism into social, still lack the strength to the Confucianism support."

Two years ago, quietly into the Zhao Yiwu declined all the publicity, because they "just do the do"; two years later, he spoke of Confucian School of striking one snag after another growth story, only to tell those people like herself to do something for society: on the road to support the Confucian school, need more companions; revival Confucianism, as a "worth great cause --" because, "and the establishment of the return of traditional culture, is the root of all good".

10000000 yuan and a "Confucianism zone"

Can you do such a school, college and university teachers it homage to long, top experts from Confucianism field Tan teaching, teacher?

Can be made of such a platform, it lifted a number of intellect, in the multitude of the Confucian classics, through careful research, find that our learning path back to life?

The establishment of the United Nations from 1994 International Confucianism date, this wish they linger in almost every member of the chest. In order to turn it into reality, leaders take great heart. However, because of various blocks, long-term efforts still no results.

Truly a major step forward, in 2004. At this time, from the International Confucian academic group has been established for ten years.

The Council of the Confucianism, the reputation is very good director Zhao Yiwu was elected vice chairman. With professors contact day, he began to see people running dream.

"Confucian education in all did not form a complete system, is a lack of the strength of the parties together high-end organization. So I suggest: we make persistent efforts, to complete this wish for many years."

Think of ten years running failed hard, professors hesitated. A multitude of things, the start from where? Everyone careful analysis, found the reason that the setback, the lack of stable funding support is the crux of the problem. "We must first solve the key problems, let everybody have action motivation and confidence." So, Zhao Yiwu told the professors, they are willing to invest the funds -- "for at least five years earlier, every year 2000000".

As good as gold, the professors were encouraged, action is also wildly beating gongs and drums to start. Considering the short term alone running feasibility of small, Confucianism Association finally decided, and the joint of two grade.

Careful planning, in-depth research, multi touch...... United struggle, one problem for crack, two years later, the international Confucianism Association and China University of Political Science and Law jointly build the "International Confucian Academy" was born in Beijing.

"Attract us choose the China University of Political Science and Law, is their promise of 'special' treatment. We can not be affected by the defects of the current teaching system, to do according to Confucianism training way to let go, to recruit students to plan, curriculum and so on, we have a significant degree of autonomy." Zhou Guidian executive vice president Professor of International Confucian school.

As China's first Confucian culture as the direction of research institutions in teaching and research, the Confucian school has a long history of traditional academy will introduce modern classroom teaching, to create a set of teacher training, research, popularization and application of Confucianism in one of the high-end platform for the development of Confucian culture, draw a new starting point, continue the tradition because, connecting; relying on international Confucianism Association, it is a "rallying domestic high-quality teachers, the unique advantages of international dialogue Confucianism frontier". "Faculty are international Confucianism association director and consultant, can be said to gather all the advantages of resources. This ensures that students in every subject can contact to benign and his legacy." Zhou Guidian said.

"The path of Confucianism and the practical link"

A long cherished wish fulfilled, professors feel heartfelt joy.

Everything is hard in the beginning, due to various reasons, a year later, the Confucian School of graduate student recruit only to 3 people, the curriculum is not very perfect.

After some reflection, international Confucianism Association of school work carried out a targeted adjustment, finally results in the cultivation of Postgraduates: work orderly expansion, in 2008 more than 400 students enter oneself for an examination, the final optimization of 10 people; Confucianism, Confucianism, Confucian three course stand firmly and fight steadily, all kinds of elective courses, a rich and colorful; field lectures regularly carry out, have become very popular among university teachers and students welcome the "academic brand"...... Two years, the growth in the school of Confucianism and Confucian spirit into the law - "211" colleges and universities, the traditional culture of respect and keep deeply implanted into a new generation of Confucian students heart.

In order to encourage students to do knowledge intentnesses, the Confucian school established the scholarship to Mr. Zhao Yiwu's name naming, according to the school issued, 10000 yuan, 5000 yuan, 3000 yuan three grades. In the newly formulated relevant regulations, for naming returns are more detailed provisions. "The support of Confucianism, reactive power in the future. If someone is willing to sponsor the series of lectures to us, or to a classroom, a curriculum, we can name for them, let the wind from the whole society in the generation and diffusion, and the mouth down." Zhou Guidian introduced.

Cultivation of talent at the same time, the Confucian school is also facing the popularization of Confucianism, the high-end target is to make each other. "We have excellent cultural legacy, should pay attention to popularity, it re radiate out. Only when the public foundation most widely, inheritance and the study of Confucianism is the foothold of this." Professors believe.

"We don't go the way of castles in the air. Popularize Confucianism, modern value to explore Confucianism, must take the research and the social reality of confucianism." Zhao Yiwu said, because of this, study Confucian Academy declaration is from reality, and to serve the reality with wisdom and way of confucianism. For example, the Confucian school has been paying attention to Hainan Province Prison Administration for inmates production "of Chinese excellent traditional culture classic readings for", "Gui", "the Analects of Confucius" Confucian texts education prison staff's action, and has determined the research subject to the investigation in Hainan.

In the eyes of the professors, "in traditional culture could not accomplish at one stroke. There is a step forward, is a good start. In the future, there will be a number of talented scholars, have faith gathering in the International Confucian Academy, to carry forward the essence of Confucianism, and Confucianism and realistic path of link." They still remember international Confucianism association president Ye Xuanping's words, and deep thought ran -- school today we founded, small scale, history is shorter; but it will be made to promote world civilization contribution is limitless.

"Find the way, is not afraid"

Ask for a total of international Confucianism Association donated Zhao Yiwu some embarrassment?. In his view, do something valuable, how much does not have to care about -- "I just think it is right to do so, one needs to make a contribution to society, just like you need a drink, no more excuse".

"First open" the Analects of Confucius ", I have a very easy to accept the feeling of closeness, think Saint sages teachings, to own some viewpoints so close." Zhao Yiwu learned that, Confucius Confucian doctrine, is rooted in the reality of the wisdom of life. If the human conscience is found out, it is easy to understand the profound meaning, the benign evolution modes of thinking, ways. "People should be followed. Learn Confucianism in today is of great significance, it can help people to set up inner conscience."

When many people regard Confucianism as "retreat" of the spirit, for many years in the market hard be keenly aware of, but let Zhao Yiwu identified the actual value of the Renaissance of confucianism. "There is a must discard the dross of Confucianism, but its essence is to carry forward. Otherwise, China culture will lose valuable inheritance place, then produces a lot of problems, such as the lack of good faith. 'three cups vomit the promise, the five mountains fall into light', integrity is the fundamental Confucian cultivation of virtue, ruling career, is today the Chinese enterprises and international enterprises as well as the quality of the necessary".

Because of this, he is looking forward to have more people to join the ranks of Confucianism to support. "Many determined to make a contribution to society people, I only want to let them see, you can do something to carry forward the fine traditional culture. And gamble at high stakes luxurious life, not for reconstruction of moral and ethical foundation for all."

Let the Confucian school professors are glad is, "the light" situation will no longer be a dream. Because, on the environment, Ancient Chinese Literature Search warming has become more and more obvious; only the Confucian school, also gradually development blueprint. In 2009, the college will achieve the independent recruitment of students, also have a brilliant future in academic exchanges, Confucianism research. The vast space, in front of the call.

"I believe the cause for national significance, even the people over many years to realize." Zhao Yiwu said, she and the Confucian school go together, and use their own actions for more community leaders "pointed out a dedicated social path", because, like the Confucian academy dean Liu Zhongde said -- "find the way, is not afraid".
