Abstract
Confucianism has double connotations which are belief and transcendent.Confucianism religion believes that human’s nature is the heaven’s nature,so Confucian is both a kind of philosophy and religion.Ren xin ben xing is the source of all kind of religions and beliefs.From the system of sacrifice,three sacrifice rites are one kind of actions which have religion meaning.Heaven and earth,ancestors,saint exist in actual and historical order,which might make people transcend current world and might help people out of imagination of another world,thus connecting actual world and super actual world under the watch of pure spirit of religion.Judging from this,Tang Junyi contented that Confucian has the character of religion,and author believes that the transcendent wisdom of Confucian contains western religion wisdom.
