An Analysis of Confucius Filial Piety Thought——Based on the Interpretation of "A Son Does Not Change His Father's Principles in His Own Life for Three Years After His Father's Death"
"A son does not change his father's principles in his own life for three years after his father's death"is a phrase that reflects Confucius filial piety thought,but there are still controversies about the interpretation of this phrase.As Confucius attached great importance to the three-year mourning period,and the phrase is aimed at how children should behave after their father's death,which is similar to the context of the three-year mourning period,so"three years"refers to the three-year mourning period,and what the son does not change should be the father's principles during his lifetime.Confucius stressed this phrase,because he insisted that children should always respect their parents.Such respect,derived from the blood relationship between father and son,is subject to the ritual requirements of the three-year mourning,and more importantly,it is connected with the political concept of Confucius,whereby filial piety leads to loyalty to the king,thus forming an orderly and hierarchical social system.
