“Confucius Biography”
Running Time: 2 minutes


This video summarizes Confucius, who was a very influential Chinese philosopher that lived between 551 BC and 479 BC.  His principals are based on the concepts of self-control, respect of one’s parents and rituals, and humanness towards others.  One of his most famous sayings is “What you do not wish for yourself, do not do to others.”  His teachings have become known as a social philosophy of “Confucianism,” gaining a large following in the centuries after his death, where rulers even looked to scholars of Confucianism for assistance with managing their empires and governing their people since his principals advocate for a naturally self-regulating society.
