Talk:Junzi

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The contents of junzi is much less elaborate than the description in the article Confucianism; should junzi be merged into Confucianism, or should the contents of the Confuciansim article about junzi be moved to the new article on junzi?--Confuzion 23:57, 3 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Chun-tzu anyone?

It should be expanded into it's own topic. And Junzi is the same as Chun-tzu, right? Or am I way off.

Chun-tzu: Gentleman (or gentlewomen/lady) who follows the "will/mandate of heaven". and follows the 7 virtues:

  Intenal Virtues

     Chih  : uprighteous of inner integrity

     I     : righteousness (principle)

     Chang : Loyalty/ to maintain others

     Shu   : "Do not do to others what you do not want done to yourself"

     Ren   : (jen), humanity

  External Virtues

     Wen   : culture of polish

     Li    : ritual/understanding of proper etiquette and social usage
