Du Feijin: Continuously Enhancing the Consciousness Culture of Promoting the "Second Combination" | China | Consciousness
The second is to continuously enhance the consciousness of opening up new horizons, deeply grasp the internal connection of the "two combinations", and continuously open up new horizons of Marxism's sinicization and modernization while adhering to the soul and root.The combination of the basic principles of Marxism with the excellent traditional culture of China is because the excellent traditional culture of China is the wisdom crystallization and essence of Chinese civilization. Marxism can only take root and be localized if it is localized in China. Only based on the magnificent civilization history of China for more than 5000 years, can we truly understand the historical necessity, cultural connotation and unique advantages of the Chinese road, and can we truly deepen our understanding of the laws of the Party's theoretical innovation, grasp the ideological and cultural initiative, and effectively act on the road, theory and system. As a cultural gene that integrates into the bloodline of the Chinese nation and is passed down from generation to generation, the excellent traditional Chinese culture has a subtle influence on the way Chinese people think and behave, which is closely related to the specific reality of China today. This fundamentally determines the inseparability of the "two combinations". To continue to open up a new realm of Marxism with Chinese characteristics and modernization on the new journey, we must deeply recognize that the "two combinations" are an organic unity, and the two are inseparable and cannot be neglected. We should constantly summarize the practical experience of socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era, and condense it into the essence of the era's thought; Strengthen the exploration and elucidation of the rich philosophical ideas, humanistic spirit, national system and governance ideas, moral concepts, etc. that are full of eternal charm and contemporary value in China's excellent traditional culture, continuously endow scientific theories with distinct Chinese characteristics, and consolidate the historical and mass foundation of Marxism's sinicization and modernization.
The third is to continuously enhance the consciousness of upholding openness and inclusiveness, strengthen cultural confidence, adhere to integrity and innovation, and better shoulder the new cultural mission of the new era.The Chinese civilization exploration project, cultural relic protection project, revolutionary cultural relic protection and utilization project, "Archaeological China" major project, Chinese ancient book protection plan, and Chinese traditional craftsmanship revitalization plan have been deeply implemented. The construction of national cultural parks such as the Great Wall, Grand Canal, Long March, Yellow River, and Yangtze River has steadily advanced, and the Chinese cultural heritage has been carried forward, demonstrating strong vitality, cohesion, and influence, adding confidence and pride to the hearts of the Chinese people and the Chinese nation. To better shoulder the new cultural mission of the new era and continue to promote cultural prosperity, build a strong cultural nation, and build a modern civilization of the Chinese nation at a new historical starting point, we must strengthen cultural confidence, deeply grasp the prominent characteristics of Chinese civilization, deeply understand the historical context of the origin and development of Chinese civilization, the brilliant achievements made, and the significant contributions made to human civilization. We must find the convergence and connection points between the basic principles of Marxism and excellent traditional Chinese culture, firmly follow our own path, and summarize and extract Chinese experience and theory from the great historical and contemporary practices of the Chinese nation. We must uphold openness and inclusiveness, adhere to the sinicization and modernization of Marxism, inherit and develop excellent traditional Chinese culture, promote the localization of foreign cultures, learn from and draw on all outstanding achievements of human society with an open mind that embraces all rivers, and achieve a number of cultural achievements that melt the past and present, and connect China and the West, continuously cultivating and creating socialist culture with Chinese characteristics in the new era. We must adhere to the principles of upholding integrity and innovation, uphold the guiding position of Marxism in the field of ideology, promote the adaptation of excellent traditional Chinese culture to socialist society, showcase the unique spiritual identity of the Chinese nation, and better construct the Chinese spirit, values, and strength. With the spirit of upholding integrity and innovation, we can continue the historical context and compose a contemporary chapter.
