Summary "孝經" by Unknown is a classical text written during the early centuries of the Common Era. This work is a philosophical treatise that focuses on the moral principle of filial piety, detailing the responsibilities and virtues associated with family relationships. It is foundational in Confucian thought, emphasizing the importance of respect and duty towards one's parents and ancestors. The book explores the nature of filial piety through discussions between Confucius and his disciple, Zengzi. It delineates the various manifestations of filial duty across different societal roles, from emperors to commoners. The overarching message is that filial piety underpins moral conduct and societal harmony, serving as both a familial obligation and a civic duty. The text advocates that sincere respect and honor towards one’s parents not only fosters personal virtue but also stabilizes and enriches the community and state, linking individual morality to broader social order.
