Kaixin Culture and Communism
Kaixin Culture and Communism: Convergent Core Goals, Complementary Levels, and Mutual Integration
Kaixin Culture and Communism are not opposing or separate systems. They share highly convergent ultimate goals for human development and form complementary layers in social construction:
Communism, through its scientific theoretical system and institutional design, aims for the ultimate social form of “the free and all-round development of human beings”, providing the broadest social platform and institutional guarantee for the popularization and practice of Kaixin Culture.
Kaixin Culture, through practical methods focused on individual spiritual cultivation and inner strength, awakens people’s innate joy and spiritual consciousness, laying a solid spiritual foundation for the practice of Communism. It is a valuable cultural exploration for advancing socialist cultural and ethical progress in the new era, supporting common prosperity (material and spiritual), and moving toward Communism.
Their connection is reflected in three dimensions:
alignment in core values,
correspondence in practical dimensions,
and mutual empowerment in development.
Meanwhile, their distinct roles must be clarified to avoid equating or substituting one for the other, so as to achieve integration and mutual promotion.
I. Deep Alignment in Core Values: People-Centered, Returning to Human Essence and Happiness
The core values of Communism center on people.
Its ultimate goal is to eliminate exploitation and alienation, achieve the free and all-round development of human beings, and build “the association of free individuals”.
In this form, people break free from the alienated state of “laboring for survival” and “interacting for utility,” return to their essential nature, and labor becomes an inner need.
Harmonious coexistence between people, society, and nature, and unity between collective and individual happiness become basic features of society.
The core of Kaixin Culture is to awaken people’s innate happiness, free them from spiritual alienation such as utilitarian anxiety, internal friction, and ego-centrism, and pursue harmony between body and mind, tolerance among people, integration between individuals and society, and coexistence between humans and nature.
Its essence is not superficial sensory pleasure, but authentic spiritual happiness.
This happiness is not merely an individual experience; it emphasizes that
“individual happiness inspires others’ happiness, and collective happiness fulfills individual happiness”,
which is highly consistent with the collectivist view of happiness in Communism.
The fundamental consensus between the two is:
rejecting alienated development centered on material gain and returning to the people-oriented pursuit.
Communism rejects the enslavement of people by material things;
Kaixin Culture rejects the spiritual bondage of people by utility and anxiety.
Both ultimately aim for “human beings becoming masters of themselves” and achieving dual happiness for individuals and the collective.
II. Two-Way Correspondence in Practice: Dialectical Unity of Transforming the Objective World and the Subjective World
The practice of Communism follows the dialectical principle of unity between transforming the objective world and the subjective world.
Its realization requires both:
· transforming the objective world (establishing a fair and just system, developing material productivity, building harmonious social relations) through revolution, construction, and reform;
· constantly transforming people’s subjective world (improving ideological awareness, spiritual quality, and collectivist consciousness).
Without high-quality people, there can be no high-quality communist society.
Overemphasis on material development while neglecting spiritual construction will inevitably lead to alienation of “material affluence with spiritual emptiness,” deviating from the ultimate goal of Communism.
The core of Kaixin Culture is the transformation of the subjective world and the cultivation of inner strength.
Its practical methods — such as concentrating on egg-balancing, joy-based table tennis, and happy sharing — essentially train people’s focus, patience, tolerance, and empathy through simple concrete practices.
They dissolve ego-centrism, impetuousness, anxiety, extremism, and confrontation, and achieve individual physical and mental harmony.
At the same time, they cultivate cooperation, collectivism, and dedication in group practice.
This process is a concrete cultural path for “transforming people’s subjective world” in communist practice.
Meanwhile, the objective practice of Communism provides a foundation for the spread of Kaixin Culture.
Only in a social system of fairness, justice, and elimination of exploitation can people break free from basic anxiety about survival and gain time and space for spiritual cultivation and innate happiness.
Only in a collectivist social atmosphere can Kaixin Culture’s ideal of “integrating individual and collective happiness” truly take root, rather than degenerating into “refined individualistic pleasure.”
III. Mutual Empowerment in Development: Kaixin Culture Consolidates the Spiritual Foundation for Communism; Communism Provides a Platform for Kaixin Culture
In the historical process toward Communism, the two form an empowerment chain:
individual empowerment → social cohesion → macro goal advancement,
becoming an integrated and mutually promoting whole.
1. Individual Level: Empowering Free and All-Round Development
The free and all-round development of people is the core symbol of Communism, which requires sound physical and mental health, independent spirit, and rich inner life, free from spiritual alienation and internal friction.
The mental training of Kaixin Culture effectively relieves restlessness, anxiety, and extremism, improves spiritual quality and psychological resilience, and enables individuals to “feel, create, and pass on happiness” — an important part of human “all-round development.”
Communism’s pursuit of “all-round development” includes not only knowledge and skills but also sound spirit and psychology.
Kaixin Culture complements pure knowledge and skill education from the perspective of spiritual happiness and psychological literacy, making human development more complete and authentic.
2. Social Level: Cultivating a Harmonious Cultural Atmosphere
A key feature of communist society is harmonious coexistence between people and society, based on values of tolerance, understanding, and mutual assistance.
China is currently in the primary stage of socialism.
Promoting common prosperity (material and spiritual) and building a harmonious society are important steps toward Communism.
Many social conflicts stem from individual ego-centrism, extremism, and spiritual anxiety.
Kaixin Culture’s ideals of “happy coexistence, mutual tolerance, and mutual achievement” and group practices foster harmonious interpersonal relations at the community, enterprise, and family levels, resolve conflicts, build consensus, and turn abstract theories of collectivism and mutual aid into concrete daily practices.
This creates a sound spiritual and cultural atmosphere for communist construction and consolidates the micro-foundation of social harmony.
3. Practical Level: Strengthening Collectivism and Cultivating the Consciousness of the “Association of Free Individuals”
The communist “association of free individuals” is a social form in which individuals consciously integrate into the collective and the collective fully fulfills individuals.
It requires strong collectivist and community spirit.
Most practices of Kaixin Culture take place in groups — collective egg-balancing, sharing sessions, public welfare promotion, etc.
In practice, individuals learn to tolerate differences, cooperate with others, and share experiences.
Through “shared happy practice,” they experience the value of the collective.
This concretely cultivates and strengthens collectivism, and subtly forms community consciousness, laying an ideological foundation for the future “association of free individuals.”
4. Institutional Level: Communism Provides the Ultimate Institutional Guarantee
The core ideal of Kaixin Culture is “everyone can achieve innate happiness.”
Its full realization requires eliminating spiritual anxiety and oppression caused by class, wealth, education, and unequal resource distribution.
Through a system of “from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs,” Communism eliminates exploitation and the gap between rich and poor, achieves abundant material wealth and fair distribution.
Only then can “spiritual cultivation and innate happiness” pursued by Kaixin Culture become a universal inner need of all members of society, rather than a “spiritual luxury” for a few.
IV. Clear Distinction in Positioning: Avoid Equating or Substituting, Achieve Complementary Levels
Although highly aligned and mutually empowering, Kaixin Culture and Communism belong to different levels and categories.
Their differences must be clarified to achieve healthy integration.
Differences in Category and Nature
· Communism is a scientific theory of social form, a guiding ideology for social revolution and construction, based on historical materialism and dialectical materialism.
It has a complete system of theories, institutions, and strategies covering economy, politics, culture, society, and ecology.
It is a scientific theory guiding human society toward a higher form.
· Kaixin Culture is a cultural system and practical method focused on spiritual cultivation and inner strength improvement.
It belongs to the field of cultural and spiritual construction, serving social development from the individual spiritual level.
Differences in Functional Dimension
· Communism acts on macro social systems, production relations, and development direction.
It solves the problem of “how to build a fair and just social form to provide institutional guarantees for human development.”
· Kaixin Culture acts on micro individual spirit, psychological quality, and interpersonal interaction.
It solves the problem of “how to improve spiritual quality so that individuals can achieve innate happiness under existing social conditions and provide spiritual support for social development.”
Differences in Practice Path
· Communism is implemented through overall, systematic social practice: institutional reform, productivity development, social governance, etc.
· Kaixin Culture is carried out through individual, daily micro-practices integrated into work, life, and study, with simple, universal, and easy-to-operate methods.
In short:
Communism and Kaixin Culture complement and support each other.
Both are paths toward a world of great harmony.
Kaixin Culture cannot replace the theoretical guidance and institutional design of Communism,
and Communism urgently needs multi-dimensional cultural practices like Kaixin Culture to ground its core ideas in individuals and daily life, ultimately achieving happiness for all people and all nations.
V. Practical Implementation: Integration for Common Prosperity in the Primary Stage of Socialism
China is in the primary stage of socialism, and promoting common prosperity is an important practical step toward Communism.
The core of common prosperity is the unity of material prosperity and spiritual prosperity — precisely the realistic focus for the integration of Kaixin Culture and Communism.
Against this background, the spread and practice of Kaixin Culture become a valuable exploration for spiritual common prosperity:
· On the one hand, mental training relieves individual internal friction and improves people’s sense of happiness and fulfillment, making “spiritual prosperity” an essential part of common prosperity.
· On the other hand, it fosters tolerance, mutual assistance, and collectivism, builds social consensus, and creates a harmonious atmosphere for material common prosperity.
The socialist system provides a fundamental guarantee for Kaixin Culture:
China adheres to the people-centered development philosophy, promotes equity in education, improves social security, narrows the wealth gap, and enables more people to pursue spiritual happiness.
China’s collectivist values are highly consistent with Kaixin Culture’s ideal of integrating individual and collective happiness, providing fertile social ground for group practice.
Conclusion
Kaixin Culture and Communism are mutually integrated at the micro and macro levels, individual and social levels, spiritual and institutional levels.
They share the same ultimate goal of “the free and all-round development of human beings” and “returning to human essence and happiness.”
They correspond and depend on each other in the practical principle of “unity of transforming the objective world and the subjective world.”
Communism, with its scientific theories and institutions, provides the ultimate platform for the full implementation of Kaixin Culture, making “innate happiness for all” possible.
Kaixin Culture, with concrete practices and methods, lays a solid spiritual foundation for Communism, making “human development” more complete and authentic.
In the historical process toward Communism, the two need not be separated or opposed.
They can integrate and promote each other at different levels, so that
institutional fairness and justice
and
individual spiritual happiness
support each other,
ultimately pointing to the ultimate goal:
“human beings becoming masters of themselves, and society becoming the association of free individuals.”
The full popularization of Kaixin Culture benefits the country and families alike.
When everyone is willing to contribute, lotus flowers can bloom everywhere.
Only with both material and spiritual civilization can we live without worry.
Otherwise, we swing between extremes, create troubles, and blame others.
Cliques, suspicion, and fear will haunt us even in daylight.
May those with insight awaken, open their hearts, and live freely.
Through joy, may we open wisdom, focus our minds, and ride the spirit of the dragon and horse.
In the Year of the Horse, may we embrace the spirit of the dragon and horse, return to simplicity, reject pretense, clear away hypocrisy, and add bricks and tiles to the great cause of Communism.
