Today, September 28, is Teacher’s Day in Taiwan (Formosa), a day to express our gratitude to all the teachers for their selfless dedication in educating the young. The day also commemorates the birthday of the great sage, Master Confucius, whose philosophy has lasting influence not only in China, but also in Korea, Âu Lạc (Vietnam), Japan, and many other countries. According to Confucius, there are five essential virtues of a true gentleman: benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, and trustworthiness. Among them, benevolence is the central tenet, which means to love all humans and other beings. It also includes animals as indicated in Master Confucius’ vegetarian lifestyle. The Confucian approach to world peace through development of inner virtue, self-cultivation, family harmony, and state governance are a positive influence to the world. In Taiwan (Formosa), the traditional Confucius memorial ceremony has been kept alive. Each year on this day, grand ceremonies dedicated to Master Confucius are held in many places, including the Taipei Confucius Temple.
