In order to praise the far-reaching influence of Confucius' Thought on our society, the later generations used the eight characters of "virtue matches the heaven and earth, and the way dominates the ancient and modern times" to praise Confucius' thought. Just like the heaven and earth, his idea is the best for both ancient and modern times. Therefore, Lingxing gate is designated as the first partial gate of Confucius Temple.
