“格物致知”的故事：

　　The background of GeWu ZhiZhi-Investigating the nature of things to obtain knowledge:

　　格物致知是中国古代儒家思想中的一个重要概念，乃儒家专门研究事物道理的一个理论，已失佚，源于《礼记‧大学》八目：格物、致知、诚意、正心、修身、齐家、治国、平天下

　　As an important concept in ancient Chinese Confucianism, it is a theory dedicated to the study of the truth of things, which originated from the eight steps(GeWu, ZhiZhi, ChengYi, ZhengXin, XiuShen, QiJia, ZhiGuo and PingTianXia) of individual moral cultivation, self and country governance in the Book of Rites  the Great Learning.

　　GeWu：to investigate thenature of things

　　ZhiZhi：to acquire knowledge

　　ChengY：to be honest, no cheating to others and oneself

　　ZhengXin：to be fair

　　XiuShen：to cultivate the moral self

　　QiJia：toregulate the family

　　ZhiGuo：to maintain the state rightly

　　PingTianXai：and make all peaceful

　　格物致知的含义：“欲诚其意者，先致其知；致知在格物。物格而后知至，知至而后意诚”——推究事物的原理，从而获得知识。

　　The meaning of GeWu ZhiZhi “Those who wish to be true to their intentions will know it first. To know the thing is based on investigating the nature of things. Knowledge comes after investigating, then to be honest”  to acquire knowledge by investigating the nature of things.
