Li Dazhao Yan sets an example for Communists with self-cultivation
This year marks the 130 anniversary of Comrade Li Dazhao's birth. Comrade Li Dazhao was a pioneer of the Chinese communist movement, a great Marxist, an outstanding proletarian revolutionist, and one of the main founders of the Chinese Communist Party. Comrade Li Dazhao's life is a glorious life. He is an example of firm belief and loyalty to the party, an example of sticking to the original aspiration and benefiting the people, an example of daring to take responsibility and being the first, an example of daring to fight and being good at fighting, an example of upholding truth and seeking truth from facts, and an example of honesty and integrity. An example of noble morality. In his short life, Li Dazhao set a shining example for the Chinese Communists in terms of strict self-cultivation.
Advocate a simple life and strictly restrict material enjoyment.
In early April 1917, the Ministry of Finance bribery case was disclosed by the newspaper. In response to the bribery case, Li Dazhao published three articles, including "the necessity of a simple life. In Li Dazhao's view, corruption is due to "with limited energy, limited material, excessive requirements, shoulder excessive burden", which leads to hypocrisy, exaggeration, luxury, greed and other evils. Therefore, "if you want to save it today, there is no good way to promote a simple life." The simple life proposed by Li Dazhao is: "Food and clothing should be frugal to enjoy, Qi Youyi should be frugal to pay, material should be frugal to spend, and spirit should be frugal to labor. Make sure that your existing energy and material can meet the burden of the requirements that you have already met."
Li Dazhao not only advocated simple life, but also always practiced this simple life. During his tenure as a professor at Peking University, Li Dazhao also took part-time courses in many other universities, earning about 300 yuan a month. However, he never spent this income on personal material comforts. Luo Zhanglong recalled: "Comrade Shouchang was frugal and worked very hard. His room was simple, his food was not tasty, and his clothes were simple", "Usually it was just like the simple life of northerners, a big cake, a spring onion, and a simple meal." Li Dazhao has been in Beijing for ten years and has not purchased any real estate. He has moved seven times, all of which are rented houses. At that time, Li Dazhao worked in Dongcheng, but rented a house in Xicheng, because the rent in Xicheng was particularly cheap. If he can't go home for dinner at noon, he will bring his own dry food, sometimes a big cake, sometimes two steamed corn-bread will be boiled in plain water.
Li Dazhao's practice of simple life is essentially his constant cultivation and restraint of his desire for material life. Although he had strict self-discipline in material life, he showed a "selfless" dedication in the early organization of the Communist Party. Faced with the practical problem of tight funding for activities, he publicly announced that he would use 80 yuan from his personal salary every month for various work of the party organization. Not only that, Li Dazhao also often subsidizes students with difficulties. Luo Zhanglong and Liu Renjing of Peking University have all received his guarantee and financial support. When his own money was gone, he advance it from his salary. The money spent on others is too much, which sometimes leads to the embarrassment of having no money to buy food at home.
Li Dazhao's excellent quality of simple life has been highly praised by the society. After Li Dazhao's death, Beijing's "Morning Post" and "Shun Tian Times" published articles respectively: "Li's private morals are mellow, such as winter without fur jacket, all the year round without a foreign car, and all the income to help poor students", "Li Dazhao had no savings in the past, and was extremely depressed behind him. After Mrs. Li returned home, she had only one yuan to live on, and her room was empty, even very tattered."
Practice and cultivate one's morality, and pay attention to cultivating one's spotless moral quality.
Li Dazhao not only pay attention to the simple material life, but also pay more attention to cultivate their own spotless moral quality. Before 1916, the school spirit of Peking University was very problematic. Playing mahjong, holding actors and visiting brothels became popular among teachers and students. Cai Yuanpei served as principal of Peking University in the winter of 1916. Subsequently, Cai Yuanpei initiated the establishment of the Jinde Association. This organization takes no prostitution, no gambling, and no marriage as the basic prects. Those who abide by these three prects are called Class A members. As soon as Li Dazhao entered Peking University, he joined the German Association and recognized himself as a member of Class A. After joining the Association, Li Dazhao strictly abided by the prects of the Jinde Association that he did not go whoring, gambling or marrying concubines, unified his words and deeds, and treated himself with self-denial, which was praised by teachers and students. In June 1919, Li Dazhao was selected as a picket of the Jinde Society.
Li Dazhao said: love between the sexes is the most important part of life. He should be kept free, sacred and noble, and should not be forced, insulted, slandered or subdued, so that he loses his beautiful value in human society. Li Dazhao has also fully practiced this view of his life. Li Dazhao's wife, Zhao Renlan, was six years older than him and was married by his grandfather. Even so, Li Dazhao was always gentle and considerate to his wife. In his spare time, Li Dazhao taught his wife to read and read, so that she could "understand the dream of Red Mansions". Li Dazhao also enthusiastically introduced his wife to the revolutionary comrades and young people who came home. In order to show courtesy to the guests, he also helped his wife change clothes, button buttons, carefully flat clothes. Li Dazhao is a professor and scholar in the university, but as soon as he gets home, he helps his wife cook and take care of the children. There is no shelf of a professor or scholar. He often said to his guests: "Revolutionaries can't treat love like those dandy people. When they become officials, they make friends with others. When they become rich or change their status, they change to marry their wives." In April 1927, after Li Dazhao was arrested, he wrote in "Readme in Prison", "Zhao had studied in this school (I. e., Tianjin Beiyang Law and Political School-I note) for six years, all at his own expense. My family was poor, with only dozens of acres of thin farmland, and the tuition needed was all due to the hard work of my wife and the pawn." Here, Li Dazhao deeply expressed his gratitude for his wife's silent support for his study and his participation in the revolution.
Li Dazhao's noble moral character has been recognized by the society. When raising donations for public funerals, people respected Li Dazhao and raised donations one after another, regardless of whether they had the same political views. Wang Jingwei, who had different political views, donated 1000 yuan of ocean. Hu Shi, who had a "problem and doctrine" dispute with Li Dazhao, also wrote on the title page of the fourth volume of his article: This volume is dedicated to Li Dazhao and other four gentlemen.
Cultivate children's moral character with elegant taste, and educate children about ideals and beliefs through music, etc.
Love son, teach with righteousness. Li Dazhao not only pays attention to cultivating his own interests and hobbies, but also pays great attention to cultivating his children's moral character with his own interests. Li Dazhao likes to plant trees and flowers, and is also good at moral education for his children by planting flowers and trees. According to Li Xinghua's recollection, once Li Xinghua saw a red morning glory and liked it very much. He was about to reach out to pinch it, but Li Dazhao stopped it with his hand. He said: "The flower will wither when it is pinched down. It is better to let it grow on it for everyone to see!" This sentence left a deep impression on Li Xinghua. She also realized the corresponding philosophy of life.
Li Dazhao likes sports very much, especially military chess. Whenever he is free, he plays chess with his children. As soon as you play, you are as lively and serious as a child. Although Li Dazhao likes playing chess, he has never bought chess pieces for his children. Whenever playing chess or chess pieces are incomplete, Li Dazhao lets his children make their own chess pieces and teaches them patiently and 1.1. Li Dazhao also gave his children moral education in the process of playing chess. In the process of playing chess, his wife once thought that the attitude should not be too serious. In this regard, Li Dazhao said: "If you are not serious, what is the point? You should also play seriously, or it will be difficult to improve their level of playing chess!"
Li Dazhao himself is good at music, and is good at educating his children's ideals and beliefs through music. He once used the "School Song" sung by his children to educate his children: "This song is too unrealistic. Isn't this training children to lie with their eyes open?" "It is impossible in today's society to build such an ideal school as a garden of youth and a beautiful kingdom. Only when socialism and communism are realized in the future can our children enter such a youthful garden and beautiful kingdom!" He also taught his children to sing the "Internationale" and "Young Pioneer Song" over and over again. Not only that, Li Dazhao also explained the meaning of the lyrics to the children. According to Li Xinghua's recollection, the few words that impressed him the most were: "Don't say that we have nothing, we must be the masters of the world." "Who created the human world? It's us laboring masses. Everything belongs to the laboring people, so there is no room for parasites!"
On holidays or nights, when Li Dazhao is free, he recites ancient poems to his children. Every time he finished reading an ancient poem, he explained it word for word to his children. Li Dazhao often educates his children with ancient poems. Through "Stone Trench Officials", "Peacock Flying Southeast" and "Selling Charcoal Weng", children are educated to understand the reality of feudal society and the darkness of feudal families.
Greed is like fire, if you don't stop it, you will start a prairie fire; if you want it, you will be like water, if you don't stop it, you will be monstrous. For party members and cadres, if they do not restrain their desires, they will be captured by greed and will eventually embark on the abyss of corruption. Therefore, General Secretary Xi Jinping pointed out: "The biggest temptation for a person to be honest and self-disciplined is himself, and the most difficult enemy to defeat is himself... We Communists should strengthen self-cultivation, self-discipline, and self-shaping, and set an example in honesty and self-discipline." In his life, Li Dazhao has always been strict with self-cultivation, thus forging a noble "perfect man in modern Chinese history". He "will always be a model and example for Communists to learn from". In the process of realizing the Chinese dream of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation, the majority of party members and cadres should take Li Dazhao as an example and model, and continue to practice self-cultivation, self-discipline, and self-shaping.
