During the education process, we must pay attention to foundation. Chinese traditional culture is mainly composed of the three schools of Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism, each in their own manner, revelatory of the mysteries of life in the universe. The three schools, with their own distinctive features, blend perfectly with one another. Confucianism is focused on interpersonal relationship; Taoism on the relationship between man and nature, and Buddhism on that of mind and disposition in synchrony with the universal truths. By teaching and acting on the ideas of these classics, the ancestors of the Chinese nation have developed younger generations into experts and scholars, creating one of the great civilizations in history. One of the greatest philosophers of the twentieth century, Bertrand Russell, declared, "The Chinese discovered and have practiced a way of life for a number of centuries. If the way of life can be accepted around the world, the world will be happy.” Actually, holy scriptures that educate people about the ethical life contain everlasting truth.
