Origin and Significance of Confucius' Birthday

Confucius (551 BC - 479 BC), personal name Qiu, courtesy name Zhongni, was a native of the State of Lu during the Spring and Autumn period. He was a great thinker and educator in ancient China, and the founder of the Confucian school of thought. His doctrines had a profound influence on China and even the world, and he is respectfully referred to as the "Great Sage and Foremost Teacher" and "Teacher for Ten Thousand Generations". Although there are various theories regarding the date of Confucius' birthday in historical records, such as the 27th day of the eighth lunar month, modern society generally designates September 28th of the Gregorian calendar as Confucius' Birthday, and some regions also regard it as Teachers' Day to commemorate this pioneer of education.

The establishment of Confucius' Birthday aims to inherit excellent traditional Chinese culture, promote Confucian ideas such as benevolence, righteousness, propriety, and wisdom, advocate the good custom of respecting teachers and valuing education, and inspire future generations to learn the wisdom of the sages, which has profound significance for building a harmonious society.
