CommemorativeThe Chinese mindset to this day remains that of the scholar-official.
It's the classic progression of rectifying the heart, cultivating the self, regulating the family, governing the state, and bringing peace to the world.
In the past, people studied, took the imperial examinations, and entered officialdom to realize their self-worth.
