Philosophy:Jing
Jing (Chinese: 敬; pinyin: Jìng) is a concept in Chinese philosophy which is typically translated as "reverence". It is often used by Confucius in the term Script error: The function "transl" does not exist. (恭敬), meaning "respectful reverence". For Confucians, Script error: The function "transl" does not exist. requires Script error: The function "transl" does not exist., or righteousness, and a proper observation of rituals (Script error: The function "transl" does not exist.). To have Script error: The function "transl" does not exist. is vitally important in the maintenance of Script error: The function "transl" does not exist., or filial piety.[1][2] The Confucian notion of respect has been likened to the later, western Kantian notion[3]
