Continuously inspiring the positive energy of the whole society to strive for excellence and goodness, 【 Daily Study 】 Firmly pursuing morality Museum | Culture | The whole society
As long as we firmly adhere to our moral pursuit and continuously stimulate the positive energy of the whole society to strive for excellence, we can definitely provide inexhaustible spiritual strength for the Chinese nation to ride the wind and waves and move forward with great strides!
This passage comes from the speech of General Secretary Xi Jinping at the National Poverty Alleviation Summary and Commendation Conference on February 25, 2021.
The excellent traditional Chinese culture is the wisdom crystallization and essence of the Chinese civilization, the root and soul of the Chinese nation, and has rich philosophy, humanistic spirit, values, ethics, etc. A nation that abandons or deviates from its own history and culture cannot develop and become strong. Cultural confidence is the most fundamental, profound, and enduring force in the development of a country or a nation.
In 2019, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council issued the "Implementation Outline for the Construction of Citizen Ethics in the New Era", which put forward overall requirements and key tasks for the construction of citizen ethics in the new era. In recent years, we have actively carried out activities and projects such as "Cultivating a New Culture", "The Most Beautiful Family" and moral model selection, collecting family traditions and teachings, and cultivating distinctive brands for volunteer services. Many moral models, "Good People Around Us", and civilized families have emerged, which inherit Chinese virtues and reflect the spirit of the times. They have continuously played a demonstrative and leading role in the whole society. At the same time, a large number of excellent stage art works and TV literature and art programs have sprung up. "Dream of Dunhuang", "The Journey of a Legendary Landscape Painting", and "China in Ancient Books" have fully activated the vitality, influence and appeal of the excellent traditional Chinese culture through creative transformation and innovative development of the excellent traditional Chinese culture. In addition, museums and cultural heritage institutions in various regions continuously improve the quality of display and cultural dissemination, bringing to life the cultural relics collected in museums, the heritage displayed on vast land, and the characters written in ancient books, providing people with richer and more diverse spiritual products. Since 2015, the National Cutural Heritage Administration has organized and carried out the collection and promotion of exhibition projects with the theme of "carrying forward excellent traditional Chinese culture and cultivating socialist core values" nationwide for nine consecutive years, covering a variety of topics such as historical culture, revolutionary commemoration, humanities and arts, and has played a leading role in comprehensively promoting patriotism education and civic morality construction in the new era.
The report of the 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China emphasizes promoting cultural confidence and self-improvement, and forging new brilliance in socialist culture. In the new era and on the new journey, if we want to continue to promote cultural prosperity, build a cultural power, and build the modern civilization of the Chinese nation, we need to further enhance our historical consciousness, strengthen cultural self-confidence, draw the essence of thought and moral essence from the excellent traditional Chinese culture, make it a common code of conduct that we use every day without being aware of, and constantly gather a strong spiritual force of more than 1.4 billion Chinese people to work together to promote the building of a socialist cultural power, and comprehensively promote the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation with Chinese path to modernization.
