The Confucian Temple in Harbin was built in the Republic of China. It is a building with great historical value and significance, which has a far-reaching impact on the local cultural development.

. I bowed my head and thought and walked in the crowd, and shuttled for a long time, feeling that I was gradually less agitated and more relaxed. When I looked up again, I suddenly found that the cars and people around me were gradually scarce, but an ancient building carved with beams and painted buildings on the left was close at hand.
The Confucian Temple is an ancient place for worshipping and offering sacrifices to Confucius, which can be found almost everywhere. However, it is rare to find such a large and complete one in major cities all over the country, and Harbin is just an example.
It was built in the Republic of China, with a history of less than a hundred years. However, the wind, rain and war in these hundred years are enough to make it run down and depressed. Therefore, in recent days, the Confucian temple has been being repaired, but there are fewer vicissitudes.
However, cultural memory can still travel through thousands of years. I'm from Shandong, and with my love for traditional culture, I know a little more about Confucius and Mencius than my peers.
Turn right after passing the archway that says "Virtue matches Heaven and Earth" in regular script. I see a statue of Confucius, a room with east and west, a big tree in the courtyard, corridors on both sides, feasting in the west and slaughtering in the east. To tell the truth, all the shapes are similar everywhere, but I still feel a little surprised to see them in the northernmost part of China.
A few years ago, I read some traditional cultural books related to Confucius, such as The Analects of Confucius, Three Rites of the Zhou Dynasty, The Book of Songs, The Book of Changes, etc., but I just dabbled in them and failed to delve into them.
However, under the triple education of family, society and school, "benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and faith" are still deeply imprinted in my mind. I know that Confucian culture really occupies the most important position in China's traditional culture, so that hundred schools of thought is too small and weak compared with Confucius and Mencius.
In the real world of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, of course not. I like Laozi and Zhuangzi, everything is done wrong, Lieyukou, The South China Classic? The "autumn water" in the inner chapter can still be recited, "everything is done wrong?" The myth at the beginning of Wu Zhu is thick, and I am fascinated by the fable of Liezi, who is against the wind.
Confucius gave lectures at the Xingtan, with 3, disciples and 7 sages. However, at that time, his ideas were only juxtaposed with Taoism, Buddhism, Mohism and Yin and Yang. It was Han Dong Zhongshu's "ousting a hundred schools of thought and respecting Confucianism alone" that established the orthodox position of Zhong Ni's Confucianism, which suddenly affected China for two thousand years.
In Dacheng Hall, Kong Qiu is sitting in a dangerous position, and his disciples are standing around. These names are familiar, such as Yan Hui, Zilu, Min Loss and Zeng Shen.
for thousands of years, no matter how solid the land is, it can't stop the decay of their flesh, but a Analects of Confucius will firmly engrave their names.
The memorial tablets dedicated to clans in the shrine are solemn and solemn. Their names are ancient, such as Shu Liangge, the father of Kong Qiu, and even make my memory vaguely blurred. Fortunately, they all exist in the cultural memory of China, which can make future generations continue to admire them.
In recent years, Confucianism has always been critical of China people's thoughts. I believe that people in China have further developed Confucianism since Neo-Confucianism in the Song and Ming Dynasties, but it has also restricted the thinking of people in China since then, and it is even more difficult to accept new things from outside.
I know that when the railway was built in the Qing Dynasty, the important officials were afraid of geomantic omen, and when photography was introduced, the senior officials were afraid of taking their souls. The young emperor wanted to learn to ride a bicycle, but he was also blocked by his ministers, because everything had to conform to the etiquette and the ancestral teachings.
They are ignorant, convinced that using magic can resist the impact of strong ships and guns; They were numb and chose to stand by when their compatriots were slaughtered; They are pathetic, and they put their vigorous energy into intrigue; They are hateful and stifle the bud of economic development at an early stage.
A few decades before Columbus, China's ships sailed across the ocean under Zheng He's leadership, but by the Opium War in 184, the gap between China and the western powers could not be recorded, and during this period, China fell behind.
during its development, Japan chose the Meiji Restoration and embarked on the road of making Qiang Bing a rich country. However, the Westernization Movement and the Reform Movement of 1898, both of which were 19th century, dared not touch the political constitution at all, and nothing else could be discussed. China was doomed to be bullied.
In fact, the people under the influence of Confucianism have not changed in essence so far. They are convinced that "Yin-Yang and Five Elements are the greatest wisdom of the ancients".
They don't know that science knows no national boundaries, and emphasize that "Oriental science can't be measured by the standards of western science". They talk about modern science so they don't recognize Yin-Yang and Five Elements because they will be subverted by China culture.
They are convinced that eating raw eggplant and loach can cure diseases, and master qigong can put out forest fires and change the atomic structure. They have been asleep for generations, unable or unwilling to wake up, and they don't know that their words and deeds have not helped China, but have held back the development of science and technology. In the long run, China will continue to fall behind.
"I'm too humble to forget worrying about my country". Every time I read this, my blood is boiling and my eyes are full of tears, but my heart is weak and I can only sigh.
Confucius is certainly innocent. After all, his views and education have created a new trend of the times. "There is no class left in education" has a great influence on us. Compared with other philosophers, he has been elevated to the altar by later generations and has been above it ever since.
It is his successors who use the distorted so-called "Confucianism" to resist the development of society, which I personally cannot accept. I love and protect traditional culture, but the mindset formed by some traditional cultures is really not conducive to the development of science and technology, so we can only let them enter museums and memorial halls for people to mourn.
It is still a memory of Confucius to leave the Confucian Temple and ask Shunyi Road to walk out of the archway of "Taoist crown in ancient and modern times". When I came here, I was also reminiscing about the past. I certainly didn't miss the articles of the great man and the weather in the prosperous Tang Dynasty that I often considered. Like everyone else, I continued to trace back and came to the elegance of the Spring and Autumn Period.
If I can walk into a tunnel of time and follow Zhong Ni 2,5 years ago, I must help him to enrich The Analects, so that later generations can always seek innovation and change when interpreting and analyzing those words, instead of blindly worshiping the ancient, then today's China must be different.
