Focusing on Zhou Lianxi, a Neo-Confucian philosopher in the Northern Song Dynasty: He first showed his intelligence as a child prodigy in Daozhou, and after he became an official, he used his "hard bones" to resist the flattery of the powerful. He learned the principles of Tai Chi in a ruined temple and used the lotus pond to enlighten the noble man's aspirations. He ignited the spark of Neo-Confucianism with "Tai Chi Illustrations" and practiced "sincerity" and "purity" throughout his life, like an eternal candle that illuminates the night of thought for thousands of years.
