 The teachings of Shri Confucius Self-discipline The teachings of Confucius are still actively practiced around the world and reforming societies through education. The Noble, he says, is not a Saint; Saints are born and remain such, whilst people become Noble thanks to self-education. His task is education, not contemplation. His aim is the Noble, not the Saint:  “A man of noble mind can acquire a culture by assiduous study and by observing the ancient norms he gives it a complete order” . Research of Balance “The Centre as such only respects two extremes; knowing the two extremes, the Centre will be known as an harmonic point between them. Centre is that state in which neither hope nor rage, neither pain nor happiness will be felt.” “Harmony is the state in which these feelings are manifested, but totally obey to the right rhythm.” “The Constant Middle is the maximum, the apex and the summit, and is few the men who are capable to keep to them for long.” “Balanc...

  LOVE OTHERS.... During the sixth century B.C., competing Chinese states undermined the authority of the Chou Empire, which had held supreme rule for over 500 years. Traditional Chinese principles began to deteriorate, resulting in a period of moral decline.

Confucius's teachings and philosophy formed the basis of East Asian culture and society, and continue to remain influential across China and East Asia today. His philosophical teachings, called Confucianism, emphasized personal and governmental morality, correctness of social relationships, justice, kindness, and sincerity.

About Shri Confucius Shri Confucius was born in China in the state of Lu in 551 BC. Son of an aristocratic but impoverished family: his father died when he was three. With the support and encouragement of his mother, Confucius was very diligent in his studies. Living in a period when corruption, wars and anarchy were the basis of politics, he decided to put his attention to the study of the classics i.e. to rediscover of old values. Since his vocation was teaching he founded a school. After his mother's death, according to tradition, Confucius could not exercise public office for three years; so he dedicated this time to the study of his favourite subjects: music, ancient rites and texts. This intense study allowed him to render into mottos the wisdom of the ancestors and to formulate precepts in order to regulate the behaviour of a man as a member of society. He also wandered around China with his students, laying a foundation of rules that has been practiced by his numerous dis...
