In traditional Chinese culture, filial piety is regarded as the foundation of all virtues. Confucius described it as an immutable principle of heaven and earth—a divinely mandated code of conduct for human society. In this episode, we share stories from both ancient and modern times that reveal how this timeless value shapes people's lives. References: […]

We're the architects of a future we'll never inhabit. In the face of today's global challenges, we must consider how our actions set the stage for those who will inherit the Earth after us. Are we obligated to act now for people we'll never meet? Do future generations even have rights? In today's episode, we discuss the spiritual implications of "now vs. later" — how short-term desires clash with long-term responsibilities. From environmental conservation to preserving cultural and moral values, we explore what it really means to leave behind a legacy. Does spirituality demand that we leave footprints in the sand, or seeds in the soil for a forest we'll never see? Throughout history, certain societies have embraced long-term thinking, while others have been crumbled by short-term gains. From Indigenous practices of sustainability to modern roles like the Future Generations Commissioner of Wales, long-term stewardship has always been a guiding principle. But it's becoming rarer in today's fast-paced world — just look at the instant gratification of consumerism or political leaders who make decisions solely based on election cycles. What is the price of constantly living for the present, and how does it stunt our collective growth? Can we design systems and cultures that help us rise above short-term thinking, even in the face of an immediate crisis?Even beliefs like reincarnation, which promise a second chance, can lead us to focus on personal ‘good karma' rather than the welfare of future generations. What does it truly mean to be a "good ancestor" when we're preoccupied with our own spiritual returns? We also cover some common spiritual practices, like meditation and manifestation, explaining which ones foster a mindset of sustainability and which may unintentionally encourage short-term thinking. Stewarding the future carries a heavy weight, both spiritually and emotionally. But the truth is that you are both an echo of the past and a whisper for the future. What kind of sound will your life make? *****************************************"Like the earth, let us help and share the burden of all.

每个文化都有它较为核心的一些价值观，谈到中国文化，就不能不谈“孝”这个观念，“孝”不仅是对待父母的方式，其实更重要的是子女如何看待自己的角色，才能让这个“孝”不是表面功夫，而是能真正体现人伦之美的德行。 Episode link: https://www.chinesepod.com/2961

Sermon: 孝親 Filial Piety Series: Parents' Sunday Speaker: 張國強牧師 Rev. Jeremiah Cheung Scripture: 以弗所書 Ephesians 6:1-4 Translated to English by Sis. Sarah Lim 孝親是中國的悠久傳統。本週，張國強牧師分享了聖經觀念的孝親確實是可能的，但它也是雙面的，因為上帝命令孩子要孝敬父母，父母也要養育敬虔的孩子。 Filial Piety is a time-honored Chinese tradition. This week, Rev. Jeremiah Cheung shares that the biblical concept of filial piety is not only possible but that it's also two-fold: God commands children to honor their parents and, at the same time, calls parents to raise godly children.

Send us a Text Message.In this episode of the Level: Asian podcast, we share our favourite things about Asian culture! Of course there's food, the arts and travel, but what are the values and day-to-day nuances that we hold closest to our hearts?From the language we use to show love and respect, the ‘above and beyond' hospitality, and frugality shaped by the migrant hustle, there's so much richness in our cultures beyond the surface. On the flip side, we also address the cultural behaviours we could live without, including old fashioned expectations and WeChat experts (#iykyk).Davie also narrates a couple of crazy stories from his recent travels, and as with most episodes, we conclude with an unplanned trauma dump.Enjoy the episode!

When we ponder the roles and responsibilities we undertake in our families as time persists and our age advances, we first consider how we navigate our primary devotion to the Father and the biblical family we are adopted into. Within the tension of filial piety and our gospel representation, our ethnic and cultural frameworks are not simply done away with, but redefined by the intervention of Jesus and reshaped by the perspective of the gospel. Where we find ourselves in the family of God and as a representative of the imago dei within our family unit, the good news of the cross serves as the peace that reaches between all of our relationships.

In most eastern cultures, filial piety is not a choice, but rather as an unconditional obligation of the child. Respect and obedience are therefore expected of the children by the parents in this codification of patriarchy.“Respect” – that oft-repeated, irrationally understood mommy of all goddamn family ideals. It surpasses logic and debates and substitutes rational disagreements with excellent old-fashioned subservience.So many of us grow up trusting that this is how it must be; that only “badtameez bachche” contend, query, and dissent. The good, sanskaari kids? There is nothing wrong, per se, with parental approval. In fact, I easily believe that our families do want the best for us.And when we listen to their tattered risk-averse opinion, it often works out simply fine.The problem, though, arises when things take an irrational and totalitarian route. When we can spot moral cracks in the directives and beliefs and principles passed on to us, and instead of flagging concerns or asking questions, we swallow them in a swig of quiet obedience.The dictum of blind, absolute respect is almost dictatorial. It is, in fact, turning us into a society that has lost its ability to think on its own. When Shaurya and Anokhi question the norm, they are labeled as detractors because we are, as brown people born under the shadow of expectation. The Shaurya and Anokhi Fandom speak about this and more in this week's podcast.Hear Supriya and Shreya in this episode. Shaurya Aur Anokhi ki Kahani on @Starplus 7PM India Mon to Sat  and anytime on @hotstarusa

Known for a tradition of Confucian filial piety, East Asian societies have some of the oldest and most rapidly aging populations on earth. Today these societies are experiencing unprecedented social challenges to the filial tradition of adult children caring for aging parents at home. Marshalling mixed methods data, Beyond Filial Piety: Rethinking Aging and Caregiving in Contemporary East Asian Societies (Berghahn, 2020) explores the complexities of aging and caregiving in contemporary East Asia. Questioning romantic visions of a senior's paradise, chapters examine emerging cultural meanings of and social responses to population aging, including caregiving both for and by the elderly. Themes include traditional ideals versus contemporary realities, the role of the state, patterns of familial and non-familial care, social stratification, and intersections of caregiving and death. Drawing on ethnographic, demographic, policy, archival, and media data, the authors trace both common patterns and diverging trends across China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Japan, and Korea. Jingyi Li is a PhD Candidate in Japanese History at the University of Arizona. She researches about early modern Japan, literati, and commercial publishing. Learn more about your ad choices.

This week, Scott and Karl read “Pray Without Ceasing” which is included in Wendell Berry’s collection of short stories That Distant Land.  Berry writes about a murder committed in the summer of 1912, 78 years before the narrator learns its details, a crime that has haunted Port William ever since. Still, if you're of the Port William membership, this story is part of your history. Scott says, "He writes the way I recollect things. It's a familiar groove for me." Berry’s idea of a healthy community, which relies heavily on filial piety, is embodied in all his fiction. Karl says, "Filial piety is a virtue that used to be everywhere that we've lost a bit. It's clearly in this story."  Tune in to hear more about this fascinating short story, brought to you by onlinegreatbooks.com.

This episode is all about our Chinese moms: their stories, our mother-daughter relationships, and the ever uncomfortable shit when we try to talk with them. Highlights:  Angie reconciles the disrespect she had for her parents  Kristy shares her mom's story about coming to Canada Physical vs Emotional boundaries with our mothers  Short term vs. long term pain in relationships Our moms are having more sex than we are  Takeaway:  Physical boundaries can be very helpful in maintaining healthy relationships. But it's also an easy way to avoid having uncomfortable talks about emotional boundaries. It's time to get uncomfortable. Concepts of filial piety are more universal than we may think. If you have the privilege, ask your family about their immigration story.  Sometimes we just need to rip the bandaid off. Which area in life are you using a bandaid? Go on a friend date with your mom. Resources:  Twitter: Tony Lin @tony_zy   All Is Well (TV Drama) The Empty Nest Companion by Susan Gross and Briget Bishop (Book)The Joy Luck Club by Amy Tan (Book)  What is Reparenting and How To Begin (Article) Enjoyed this episode?

The Six Classics are Shi Jing (Classic of Poetry). Shu Jing (Classic of History). Yi Jing (Classic of Changes). Li Ji (Classic of Rites), Chun Qiu (Spring and Autumn Annals). and Yue Jing (Classic of Music). And because the Classic of Music has been lost, there are only Five Classics to be found today. These five books are the classics of Confucianism. Today, from these books, we can learn the kernel of ancient Chinese culture. ＜ Explanation in simplified＞⁣　 古代人读书，要先把「四书」读熟了，《孝经》的道理弄明白了，才可以去读「六经」这样深奥的书。 「六经」包括《诗经》《书经》《易经》《礼记》《春秋》《乐经》。由于《乐 经》已失传，后来便只剩「五经」。这些都是中国古代儒家的重要经典，对于我们来说，最主要是学会由易入难、循序渐进 的学习方法，了解和掌握中国古代文化典籍的精髓。 ＜ Explanation in traditional＞⁣ 古代人讀書，要先把「四書」讀熟了，《孝經》的道理弄明白了，才可以去讀「六經」這樣深奧的書。「六經」包括《詩經》《書經》《易經》《禮記》《春秋》《樂經》。由於《樂 經》已失傳，後來便只剩「五經」。這些都是中國古代儒家的重要經典，對於我們來說，最主要是學會由易入難、循序漸進 的學習方法，了解和掌握中國古代文化典籍的精髓。 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Welcome to leave a message, thought, suggestion, feedback to me. 如果你对内容有任何问题，想法，建议，都可以留言给我 https://open.firstory.me/story/ck9v7bjsoqivi0873td4ux1gc?m=comment It would be a big help if you kindly support my channel with a cup of coffee 欢迎买杯咖杯赞助我的频道，你的小小支持是我的大大帮助 ☕ https://pay.firstory.me/user/taiwanaccent Powered by Firstory Hosting

We're discussing the concept of filial piety - a core tenet of Confucianism and a foundational pillar of Chinese culture. It represents the endless karmic debt that children owe to their parents for bringing them into this world, and all the obligations and duties expected of us as a result of being raised under that philosophy. Our guest Jenny was invited to bring a western perspective to this discussion as we explore how we view our relationships with our parents and the generations before us, and the expectations or hopes we'd want to continue on with our future families as a result of our upbringings.

Tokuyu Hoshi takes up the koan “Caoshan’s Fulfillment of Filial Piety” to examine how we can more skillfully work with our most difficult emotions. In our sadness, shame and embarrassment, perhaps we can notice that they’re fine, actually—that we have nothing to hide. Recorded December 12, 2019.

Genjo Marinello Osho gave this Teisho on the sixth day of Rohatsu Sesshin 2019. This talk explores how we requite our filial piety for our parents and teachers, and also explores how to process our loss, pain, sorrow, and primitive craziness.

Many of my Asian friends and I have experienced parenting in the form of helicopter parenting or Asian guilt to motivate us. After decades of conditioning, this becomes ingrained as a part of our psyche.   And to be honest, for me, I’m still navigating and figuring out whenever I make a decision if I am being true to my heart center or doing it out of Asian guilt. “I have to do this to be a good Asian son”.   In this episode, we cover: My story of how I defied being a doctor
 Being compassionate with my family and their expectations
 Finding a career that my family doesn’t understand
 Filial piety and impact on us
 Compensatory strategies of being gay
 Is it wrong to defy parental expectations
 Why not following our truth has health consequences
 Tips on how to manage parental expectations
 What are the top 5 regrets of dying patients

Bye! ♥️

Thus episode looks to see if the classical Asian virtue of Filial Piety can be augmented to produce peace at levels larger than merely creating good families

In this episode we give you a brief introduction to the six books that the Three Character Classic (三字经) recommends you tackle when you're done with the Analects of Confucius (论语者), the works of Mencius (孟子者), the Doctrine of the Mean (中庸), the Great Learning (大学), and the Book of Filial Piety (孝经). In this episode, we talk about the Book of Filial Piety (孝经), and give you some examples of the lessons its author believes are important in order to live a good life. And we discuss some of the differences between how the parent-child relationship is viewed differently in China now compared to back in earlier times. The三字经 was written by the Song Dynasty (宋朝) scholar Wang Yinglin (王应麟). This 1,134 character text was one of the first textbooks used by students, and provided lessons on education, morality and ethics, science, literature, and history.

Filial piety, the concept of being respectful to your parents, cuts across cultures. But the meaning of this in China (xiao) goes deeper and has far greater implications than it does for most people in the West. Today we get into it, PLUS - introducing the “HCW” Drinking Game!
