March 5 this year marks the 120th anniversary of the birth of Comrade Zhou Enlai, the good premier of the people.
When he was young, he wrote the bold words of "reading for the rise of China"; in his youth, he made a message that "I wish to meet when China took off in the world".
At the symposium held by the CPC Central Committee on March 1 to commemorate the 120th anniversary of Comrade Zhou Enlai's birth, General Secretary Xi Jinping delivered an important speech, stressing that the grand goal of China's modernization that Comrade Zhou Enlai commemorated before his death will certainly be fully realized in the near future.
When talking about Comrade Zhou Enlai, who never used his power to seek any personal interests for himself or his relatives and friends, left no personal property behind him, and did not even let his ashes be retained, and sprinkled them into the jianghai land of the motherland, Xi Jinping used the allusion "Great sages uphold high wisdom, and the public candle is selfless", pointing out that we must learn from Comrade Zhou Enlai, keep in mind that the power in our hands is given by the party and the people, is used to serve the people, and we must be upright, clean with two sleeves, and be a dignified communist.
Interpretation of this issue of "Learning Dictionary": Great Sage Bing Gao Jian, Public Candle Selfless Light
Original text: "The great sage is highly skilled, and the public candle is selfless." Comrade Zhou Enlai's noble personality of selflessness and serving the common good in the world throughout his life is a concentrated portrayal of the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation and the excellent character of the Chinese communists, and will always be admired by future generations. (——Xi Jinping's speech at the symposium commemorating the 120th anniversary of Zhou Enlai's birth)
Poke the audio and listen to the interpretation
Mengman, a professor in the History Department of the Central University for Nationalities, interpreted
"DaXian Bing Gao Jian, Public Candle Selfless Light" comes from MengJiao's poem "Shangda Xi Sheren", which tells about MengJiao's own life pursuits. The full text is:
The north mountain has less sun and moon, and the grass and trees are bitter wind and frost.
Poor people in heavy hills, eat plums have sour sausages.
All the worlds are round, and they are all learned.
Often feared that the crowd would be destroyed, and the spring leaves would turn yellow in autumn.
The great sage is highly discerning, and the public candle is selfless.
The dark room is not yet known, and the ghostly line is empty.

What is the "Great Sage Bing Gao Jian"? "Jian" is the mirror, and the real sage should always be ready to take out a big mirror to look at himself, so as not to let himself have the slightest flaw. Tang Taizong Li Shimin said that "using copper as a mirror, people as a mirror, and history as a mirror" is also this truth.
What is the "naked light of the male candle"? That is to say, even small things and small interests such as public candles will never be used for their own private use. In ancient China, there was such a clean and honest saying that "under the candle, do not show the family book".
General Secretary Xi Jinping used Mengjiao's poem to evaluate Premier Zhou Enlai's lofty feelings of strict self-discipline and selflessness, and it is also an encouragement and demand for all Communist Party members.
In addition to "the great sage is highly qualified, and the public candle is selfless", when xi Jinping recalled that Comrade Zhou Enlai was an outstanding model of strict self-discipline and honesty, he also used the tanglian inscription written in the governor's palace when the late Qing statesman Lin Zexu was the governor of Liangguang: "Hai Na Bai Chuan, there is tolerance is big; the wall stands a thousand people, and no desire is just" when he was the governor of Liangguang.

Meaning: The sea accommodates hundreds of rivers because of its broad measure, and the mountains can be so upright because they are selfless and desireless, and they are upright, which shows the author's broad mind and grandeur.
While highly appraising Comrade Zhou Enlai's political ethics and fine work style of being strict with himself, being arduous and simple all his life, seeking dedication and not thinking of returns, this dictionary also emphasizes that we should implement well the strategic arrangements made by the Nineteenth National Congress of the Party with the spirit of waiting for no time and seizing the day, and strive to create actual achievements that can withstand the test of practice, the people, and history, and be worthy of the times, the people, and history.
