through arguments and reasoning,he taught his rulesthrough personal examples.He himself studied hard and sought truth,dreams and a perfectpersonality.In short,Confucius aimed to establish a world of great harmony.For over twothousand years,his teachings and beliefs still have a great effect on Chinese culture.Many othercultures around the world have also been influenced to this day by these
