　　■Procedures
　　Step 1: Warming up by defining philosopher
　　A philosopher is a person devoted to studying and producing results in philosophy. The word, “philosopher,” literally means “lover of wisdom.”
　　Warming up by discussing some philosophical sentences from the Analects of Confucius

　　子曰：“学而不思则罔，思而不学则殆。”

Though not organized as a religion, it has deeply influenced East Asian spiritual and political life in a comparable manner. The core idea is ren (“humaneness ([]) ,” “benevolence ([])”), signifying excellent character in accord with li (ritual norms), zhong (loyalty to
