What is philosophy as demonstrated in Ancient Chinese Philosophy by Confucius in the way he characterizes the ideal of human being?


The philosophy as demonstrated in Ancient Chinese Philosophy by Confucius in the way he characterizes the ideal human being are Jen (Human-heartedness), Yi (Righteousness), Li (Propriety) and Chih (Wisdom). Human-heartedness means having a good relationship or love with men, human-heartedness is the love for another and having it means having a harmonious relationship with everyone. Human-heartedness means thinking for the good of others and not just for oneself. Righteousness because being right means not doing what is not good and not harming others, being righteous means doing what is good. Anything you do without righteousness is not good at all and it will just in fact make you a bad person. Propriety is like righteousness because propriety is doing what is the correct behavior and doing what is good and right, it makes a man as a whole and makes you who you are. Following the tradition means following what is right and following what is right means creating harmony to the people around you. Following what is good and right makes everyone united. Wisdom means having the good knowledge about certain things and having knowledge about what is good to do and not good to do. Human-heartedness, Righteousness, Propriety and Wisdom are one and they all work to promote Moral Philosophy.
