First, please
note that there are many translations for the five virtues so these may be a little different
from what your book says. The five virtues are:
- Propriety or
courtesy. This is sort of like the golden rule in Western thinking. This means that it is
important to treat others in proper ways. - Righteousness or justice. This
is the virtue of knowing how to act at all times. In other words, we should always act in ways
that are appropriate to the situation. - Propriety. This involves respecting
the old ways that have been passed down. It involves taking part in the correct rituals, for
example. - Wisdom. This is the knowledge of what is right and wrong, good
and bad. - Faithfullness or loyalty. This can also be called
trustworthiness. It is the virtue of being true to your word and always doing what you say you
will.
