Honor Teachers and Respect Rules
尊敬老師,崇尚道義?!暗馈奔从钪娴钠毡榉▌t、世間的真理和道義等。尊師是中華民族的傳統(tǒng)美德,重道是中華傳統(tǒng)文化的重要特質(zhì)。“師”是“道”的載體和傳播者,所以尊師和重道是一體兩面的關(guān)系。它自古即被認(rèn)為是國家興旺發(fā)達(dá)的重要前提,也是政治清明的重要標(biāo)志。
This term means to honor teachers and respect rules. The "rules" are the laws of the (physical) universe, as well as the truths and moral principles of the world. Honoring teachers is a traditional Chinese virtue, and respecting rules is an important feature of traditional Chinese culture. A teacher is a vehicle for and a propagator of the rules; hence honoring teachers and respecting rules are two aspects of the same thing. Since ancient times, this has been regarded as an important precondition for the country to prosper and flourish. It is also an important indicator of good government.
