(Ancient Chinese Philosophers)
There are many Ancient Chinese Philosophers, that marked the history. However, Confucianism and Daoism, will always hold a sacred place, in the Chinese History. Many individuals, may have mistaken Confucianism and Daoism, as a Spiritual character. Yet, they are famous human philosophers, that set the fundamental rules to being a human. The two famous form of Philosophy formed the Cultural, Moral, and human practices, in the Chinese culture. Both philosophers pride massively on bringing harmony to society, self controlled, self discipline, self motivated, and self growth. They are both great teachers in the ancient history, and both differ in different ways. In my opinion, Confucianism focus on daily life approach. More so on the logical way of establishing life. Whereas, Daoism, focus on Ying Yang, which symbolize balance. Daoism steer more on a nature of a human, rather than the rules. Daoism to me, interpret as more to following the heart, mindfulness, and balance.
Confucian was born to be a highly superior intellegient child. At a young age, he constantly feels, that his life purpose, was to teach and educate individuals, to create a harmony society. "Aristotle. Confucius would draw on the traditional wisdom of China to teach his disciples about the principles of right living and right governing. He described himself as a transmitter, not an originator. Any sincere seeker was welcome, rich or poor, but presumably most of the disciples were from wealthy families, and Confucius was able to make a decent living doing what he loved most"Bresnan, Patrick S.. Awakening (p. 306). Confucians dreams was to obtain a power to the throne, so he can create changes to society, through the noble name LU. Yet, that did not conclude in a content ending. Confucian did not successfully, spread his teaching, until the Feudalism system. When the Feudalism system created, that is the time of Confucian's shine. Til this day, China still withholds his teaching and guidance.
