Abstract
In the Confucian schools, coming-to-be is a very important concept, from which many Confucian categories and propositions can be fundamentally interpreted. Only on the basis of correctly understanding the connotation and significance of coming-to-be, can we accurately comprehend the meaning of golden mean, jen, zhong-shu-zhi-dao and tien jen ho yi, can we grasp the thought charactertics of Confucianism emphizing sprtitual traits and the way of act through self arriving at others.
