The practical significance of traditional festivals in China;
1. Inherit the Chinese nation's thought of "harmony between man and nature"
Through human efforts, natural disasters should not affect human life. At present, economic and social development takes the road of harmonious development and requires green development. Humans can't seize natural resources by plundering. Inheriting the idea of "harmony between man and nature" in traditional festivals is helpful to realize the goal of green development and sustainable development.
2. Inherit and carry forward the basic spirit of Confucianism
The dilemma of traditional festival culture in China lies in the solidification of ceremony and the materialization of connotation. The practical significance of traditional festivals lies in that basic moral education can be easily completed through festival cultural propaganda.
3. Establish national feelings and patriotism.
The same belief can bring people from different regions, different values and even different nationalities closer together. The existence of traditional festivals can subtly enlighten people with culture, which is of great significance to the formation of national spirit and the realization of patriotic education.
