Extractions: Neo-Confucianism was primarily concerned with the regulation and harmonization of human relations through moral and ethical principles, as opposed to orthodox Confucianism which sometimes delved into metaphysical problems, such as the origin and nature of the universe, yet left the average scholar hanging when it came to practical explanations on how to live a good life.

In this final instalment before July 1, 1997, CAP explores the only way for China to govern Hong Kong and itself: the principles of Confucius - the same ones that brought prosperity to Taiwan, South Korea, Singapore, and, to a lesser extent, Japan to get a common misconception out of the way: first, Confucianism is not a religion, but a philosophy. And it's very likely the only lasting solution for good government in China. Most readers not versed with the history of China may be asking at this point, 'How can a Chinese who lived 2,500 years ago have any relevance for today?'

Quite often, though, this Chinese ideogram for water is utilized. It represents the 'source of life' in Chinese philosophy. Confucianism This worldview originated with the respected Chinese philosopher Confucius (551-479 BC) and was further devel-oped by some of his followers, such as Mencius (372-289 BC) and Zhu Xi (1130-1200 AD). His philosophy dealt more with ethics than religion. Confucius lived in a time when moral standards were lacking. He advocated a return to the ancient Chinese ideal of ethical living. He taught that rulers could be great only if they themselves lead exemplary lives. Effective leaders must be willing to be guided by moral principles. If they do so, their states will inevitably become prosperous and happy.

http://www.divinedigest.com/confu.htm

Extractions: Visit our Sponsors Confucianism is a Chinese religion based on the teachings of Confucius a philosopher who died about 479 B.C. Confucianism has no organisation or clergy. It does not teach a belief in a deity or the existence of life after death. Confucianism stresses on moral and political ideas. It emphasises on respect for ancestors and Government authorities and teaches that rulers must govern according to high moral standards. Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism have been the major religions in China. But Confucianism had the greatest impact on the Chinese society. It was the State religion of China from 100 B.C. to 1,900 A.D. Confucius's scriptures called "The Five Classics and Four Books" served as a foundation of the Chinese education system for centuries. Beginning in the 1,000s, a more philosophical approach to Confucianism, known, as "New Confucianism" became widely popular. New Confucianism also influenced Japanese moral codes and philosophy. In 1949, the Chinese communists gained control of China. The Government officially condemned Confucianism as well as other religions. As a result, most followers of Confucianism lived outside mainland China. In 1970's, however, the Communist Government relaxed its policy against religion and so, Confucianism enjoyed a revival on the mainland. Home Hinduism Islam Buddhism ...

http://www-unix.oit.umass.edu/~clit121/luxconfu.html

Extractions: Lu Xun (Loo Shin/Sheen), 1881-1936 Lu Xun is the most revered writer of modern China: not only because of his genius, but because he was an important social critic and the first modern Chinese writer to write fiction in the vernacular (everyday language). Lu Xun lived between two eras: the old Confucian order, where the government was run by a privileged caste of noblemen and scholars, and the intellectual and political ferment leading to the modern state that is the People's Republic of China. Known as a realist writer for his character psychology and pictures of everyday life, he also employs a great deal of symbolism to suggest added levels of meaning. You can read "A Madman's Diary" as an interesting study in paranoia. However, you will get more out of it if you recognize the level of social/historical critique doubling the story of madness. This critique is directed at an extremely rigid and exploitative social order that Lu Xun sees as cannibalistic (hence the Madman's fear of being eaten); it is an almost-feudal system that justifies its existence by claiming to embody Confucian philosophy. In "A Madman's Diary," the threat of family cannibalism is also an image of state or social cannibalism, and "saving the children" at the end means saving future generations from a predatory social system. In "A Madman's Diary," therefore, the threat of family cannibalism is also an image of state or social cannibalism, and the question of "saving the children" at the end has dual significance. Otherwise, simply keep your eyes open for images of the Madman-diarist's growing paranoia, and you will enjoy reading one of the most famous stories of modern Chinese literatureand the first modern story to be written (1918) in the vernacular for everyone to read.
UUS > Sermons > 1999 > May 2 - "Understanding Confucianism" By Rev. Roberta Fink

http://www.uusterling.org/sermons/1999/sermon 1999-05-02.htm

Extractions: Well, our year long exploration of the religions of the world is almost over. Last month we talked about Taoism, and this month we linger in China to try to understand Confucianism. The Western world knows little about Confucianism, and most of what we think we know is probably skewed by the ignorant caricature of Confucius in our culture: the "Confucius say . . . " fortune cookie aphorisms. Unfortunate, considering that for the better part of two millennia, 25% of the world’s population was Confucian, or at least partly Confucian. And that is where some of the confusion comes in – how to define the practice of Confucianism. In China, in stark contrast to other parts of the world, several religions have co-existed, not just in the country as a whole, but in most of it’s people. Rather than remaining as separate and even competitive institutions as Christianity, Judaism, and Islam have, the religions of China are syncretic – that is, most of the people are associated with more than one religion, pulling the best or the most appealing out of each for their personal spiritual practices. So when we count adherents, we cannot say, there are this many Taoists, and this many Confucians. Huston Smith says, "Traditionally, every Chinese was Confucian in ethics and public life, Taoist in private life and hygiene, and Buddhist at the time of death, with a healthy dash of shamanistic folk religion thrown in along the way. As someone has made the point: Every Chinese wears a Confucian hat, Taoist robes, and Buddhist sandals."

Extractions: Statue of Confucius at Beijing Temple But perfect freedom is not found without some rules. People, especially young people, think that freedom is to do just what they want, that in Zen there is no need for rules. But it is absolutely necessary for us to have some rules. But this does not mean always to be under control. As long as you have rules, you have a chance for freedom. To try to obtain freedom without being aware of the rules means nothing. It is to acquire this perfect freedom that we practice zazen. ( Zen Mind, Beginner's Mind , D.T. Suzuki, p. 34) The ultimate Confucian concern is self transformation as a communal act and as a faithful dialogical response to the transcendent. (Tu Wei-ming, Centrality and Commonality , p. x) The Chinese term which most closely relates to our term, character, is te . This is the te of the Tao Te Ching , by the way, and it is a word which precedes all of the existing Chinese religions. Originally it meant something like virtue, in the old English sense: in old English it is the virtue of a seed which produces a plant, the virtue of the planets which determines their course through the heavens, and so forth. Te in ancient China was particularly respected as a force which inhabited great leaders. It was one's

http://www.stanford.edu/class/history92a/readings/tokconf.html

Extractions: INTELLECTUAL CURRENTS IN TOKUGAWA JAPAN Intellectually and institutionally, the Tokugawa period was the most vigorous of Japan's historical eras. It was deeply steeped in contrast and variation. On the one hand, there were Confucian scholars who did not hesitate to call themselves "eastern barbarians" and did not hide their adulation for the country of the "Sage," China. On the other hand, there were kokugaku (national learning) scholars who reveled in their ethnocentrism. Some avidly studied Western scientific methods, while others found inspiration in the textual criticism of Confucian or Japanese classics. However, official sanction alone cannot explain the strength exhibited by Neo-Confucianism. Its acceptance came also in part because of its rationalism, humanism and pragmatism. A favorite text of the Neo-Confucianists was "the investigation of things," taken from the Great Learning (Daxue). The text taught the Japanese to look into the laws of human society and to take interest in natural phenomena. Zhu Xi's emphasis on basic human relationships, such as the Five Constant Virtues (see Document 1), gave the basis for formulating a secular society. And within this otherwise rigid legal and ethical structure, Confucianism also found a way to temper justice with mercy (see Document 7). The Confucian orthodoxy in Tokugawa Japan was vigorously promoted by Hayashi Razan (15831657) who became an advisor to Ieyasu in 1608. In 1630 he established a private school in Ueno, Edo, which later became the official bakufu school by the name of Shoheiko. Initially only the bakufu samurai were admitted as its students, but later samurai from the han and commoners were also admitted. This example set by the bakufu to encourage learning was emulated by many han administrations in founding their own han schools in later years. Various shogun and daimyo also became patrons of important Confucian scholars.

In the Han dynasty, Confucianism was adopted and other schools suppressed by the Han rulers to consolidate their reign. Then Confucianism flourished and became dominant in the Chinese history and culture for almost 2 millenniums. Later it even spread to Korea and Japan and has been influential in the two cultures. Confucius and his Confucianism had so great an impact on the Chinese civilization that you can't imagine how Chinese culture and history will be otherwise. In the whole 2,000 years, Confucianism has influenced the Chinese attitude toward life, set the patterns of living and standards of social value, established standards for training government officials, and provided the background for Chinese political theories and institutions.
