2014年祭孔大典：9月28日在曲阜举行

The Confucius Memorial Ceremony was held to inherit Confucianism and promote the spirit of sages.

-----Zhuge Changqing

Confucius was born on September 28.

At 9:00 a.m. on September 28, the Confucius Memorial Ceremony to commemorate the 2565th anniversary of Confucius' birthday was held at the Confucius Temple in Qufu, Shandong Province.

Every year on this day, many places in China, such as Qufu in Shandong Province, and many Chinese communities around the world will hold a ceremony to worship Confucius.

Zhuge Changqing believed that the Confucius Memorial Ceremony could inherit the Confucian thought and carry forward the spirit of sages.

The good news this year is that September 27 is designated as the World Confucius Institute Day. It is set as the World Confucius Institute Day, which is celebrated all over the world. Then on September 28, we will jointly commemorate Confucius' birthday.

The continuation is of great significance to the dissemination of Confucianism and Confucian culture.

Jining News Network, September 28 (Reporter Gu Yu Shengli) This morning, the ceremony to commemorate the 2565th anniversary of Confucius' birth was held in Qufu Confucius Temple.

At 9:00 a.m., the ceremony of offering sacrifices to Confucius opened.

After the opening ceremony of the temple, accompanied by the magnificent and distant ancient music, the visitors to the Confucius Temple passed through the Shengshi Gate, Hongdao Gate, Tongwen Gate and other gates of the Confucius Temple in turn. After the opening ceremony at Dacheng Gate, they came to the main site of the Confucius Temple Dacheng Hall.

Attachment: Sacrifice to Confucius in the Year of Jiawu

Zhang Liwen

But in the year of Jiawu in the summer calendar, the 2565 year of the birth of Confucius, the founder of Confucius, is celebrated. I would like to honor the spirit of Confucius and the sages with fragrant flowers, wine and fruit, and dance and music. His words are:

Where does heaven and earth come from? How do humans live? The same is not the same.

Yin and Yang rhythm, five elements are mixed. Everything is mellow and respectful.

Tangwu revolution is in line with the times. Virtue is the only supplement, respect virtue and protect the people.

Water can carry water, and the people value the king. Don't stand up without faith. Eat and fight.

Confucius is towering and the holy way is clear. Revitalize the rites and music, and lift the waves and support the inclination.

We have reached the people's goal, and have been generous to the people. Only the virtue of holiness is forever sweet.

The heaven is strong and the earth is soft. Humanity, benevolence and justice, world civilization.

Observing changes in the sky, people become cultural. Sincerely and sincerely, and strive for harmony and peace.

Love the people, honesty and justice. Harmony is the value of the times.

Hong Wei China, its life is renewed. Morality and law help each other.

The snobbery is brilliant, and the lust is pure. The nine virtues of a gentleman are to advance and retreat and defend integrity.

Rites and righteousness are disciplines, and each person is responsible for his life. Through the state and the people, the peace of the earth and the Qianqing Dynasty.

Multi-world, differential fusion. Harmony without difference, harmony with all nations.

Peaceful development and win-win cooperation. With the same fate, the world is brilliant.

Heaven and man are beautiful, and body and mind are happy. Harmony between the family and the country leads to prosperity.

Heaven and people are happy, and harmony is shared. Harmony with the world, happiness forever.

I wish you all the best!
