About this listen
He didn’t rule an empire. He didn’t fight a war. He just had an idea — that the world could be better if everyone just played their part. This is the story of Confucius — not as a saint, not as a symbol, but as a man trying to fix a broken world with virtue, obedience, and a whole lot of ritual bowing. Through chaos, rejection, and endless lectures, he built a moral system that outlived dynasties and became the software of an entire civilization. But what did it cost? This isn’t worship. This isn’t a takedown. This is a biography told with open eyes. Because even the wisest teacher doesn’t always get it right.
