“孝”在中国传统文化中有着重要的内涵和地位,孟子的孝道思想更是一直以来都被人们所重视。他在继承和发展孔子孝思想的同时,也提出了自己独到的见解。特别是在《万章章句上》中,他以大舜之孝为切入点,阐明了行孝的几种表现,主要包括孝敬父母、友爱兄弟、娶妻生子等内容。同时,也区分了“亲亲”与“亲他”之间的不同。在当代,重新来看孟子的孝道思想,并从中汲取优秀的思想精华,对当今维护社会和谐稳定及全面建成小康社会都有其重要的现实意义。 “Filial piety ” has an important connotation and position in traditional Chinese culture. Mencius’ filial piety thought has always been valued by all people. While inheriting and developing Confucius’ filial piety, he also put forward his own unique opinions. Especially in The Chapter of a thousand chapters, he started with Takashima’s filial piety and clarified several manifestations of his filial piety, mainly including filial piety, fraternity, and wives and children. At the same time, it also distinguishes the difference between “kiss” and “kiss him”. In the contemporary era, looking back on Mencius’s filial piety thought and drawing excellent ideological essence therefrom has its important practical significance for maintaining social harmony and stability and for building a well-off society in an all-round way.
