Confucius has given the world a path toward peace, harmony and prosperity. And I'm really glad to see that he is still being commemorated and revered to such a high degree in today's Сhina.

I love everything from China , dance, music, literature, customs and way of life. They honor the elders and have the highest respect for each other . I hope Argentina people observe them and absorb their actions.

The highest ceremony for Confucius. Confucius teacing emphasizes rituals, harmony, peace, respect, and humanity. Ritual is a way to connect people and society. Happy birthday to the great philosopher of China and the world.

Cool❣

[@melaniamonicacraciun9900]

now more than ever, we need to hang on things that make life worth living, because when there's so much lack of respect for human life. .. it's not much fun at all friends, now you know how it feels. Some genius minds like Confucius are happy to release the others, teaching them how to walk free and independent building up their own haven on earth...some others make us feel dead meat no matter what we do, condemned to death guilty only of breathing, what's life worth living if not being already dead?

True Chin Heritage

[@kimfab1973]

The music played is not traditional. For Confucian ritual music China should learn from Taiwan and South Korea. They preserved the Confucian ritual music.

Cope Harder

[@dianakarake1729]

Just for fact. Confucius is not worshipped but honored. Confucianism has no god or gods in its beliefs.

[@splashenful]

Not exactly. They worship Ti'en (Heaven). However, the Confucian view of Ti'en is more akin to a Deistic view of God, rather than a Christian or a Sikh, etc., view Of God.

[@dianakarake1729]

@@splashenful I know that they worshipp heaven. But they don't worshipp Confucius or do they?

[@splashenful]

@@dianakarake1729 As far as I know, no they do not. Confucius is not believed to be a god. Ti'en on the other hand, is another Name for God for Confucians.

[@lyd4712]

​@@dianakarake1729they do not wotship Confucius in abrahamic concept of worship. The Eastern beliefs concept is different to the Arabahamic like Christianity and Islam. Tien for God in Chinese means Heaven rather than a singular God like in Islam or Christianity.

[@staffan144]

Who is Confucius? Is it confusion?

[@grouchypatch9185]

Whatever game you are trying to play means nada to the Chinese. After all it's a name given by the West. What matters to the Chinese, GongZi is his real name

[@sumamihardja6083]

It's not Gong Zi, but Kong Zi. 🙏

[@samsamman5414]

How can a person of non Chinese understand who he is.. Stupid guy???

[@staffan144]

@@samsamman5414 they are worshipping a human. Confucius (/kənˈfjuːʃəs/ kən-FEW-shəs; Chinese: 孔夫子; pinyin: Kǒng Fūzǐ, "Master Kǒng"; or commonly 孔子; Kǒngzǐ; c. 551 - c. 479 BCE) was a Chinese philosopher and politician of the Spring and Autumn period who is traditionally considered the paragon of Chinese sages. Confucius's teachings and philosophy underpin East Asian culture and society, remaining influential across China and East Asia to this day.

@@staffan144 it's honor, not worship. seems like you know what Confucius is, however.
