Second, the significance of Shun Yao
Shun Yao was one of the two emperors in the ancient feudal legend of China. According to historical records, Shun is the grandson of the Yellow Emperor. He has virtue and can govern the world. He finally succeeded to the throne and became Yao's successor. Yao is one of the "Five Emperors" in the ancient legends of China. It is said that he is Shun's teacher and predecessor, and also a very moral and talented emperor. He ruled the world with his wisdom and left a good model and administrative system for future generations.
Shun Yao is a symbol of China's ancient emperors and cultural traditions, and its image is widely used in China's traditional culture, educational thought and political philosophy. Nowadays, Shun Yao is regarded as an important part of Chinese civilization and represents the values of wisdom, justice and equality in China traditional culture.
Shun Yao's meaning is actually a manifestation of humanistic spirit. In China culture, Shun Yao is regarded as a representative with both ability and political integrity, representing the spirit of rule by virtue in China culture. Rule by virtue is a governance concept based on human feelings and benevolence, which unifies self-restraint with family, society and national behavior norms.
Different from violence and totalitarian rule, the rule of virtue emphasizes the rule of virtue, restricts people's internal moral literacy and external behavior, and realizes social harmony by perfecting the legal system. This kind of governance attaches importance to moral education, encourages people to consciously abide by the law, consciously safeguard public interests, and makes society more harmonious and stable.
