From Chiang's point of view, however, the four ancient virtues mean even more: ch'ih, patriotism; lien, morality; i, social sense or the exact opposite of its English meaning, and li, discipline-the four cardinal virtues of any nationalistic State. Says Chiang:
Ch'ih, meaning "consciousness," must govern the motive of action through the sense of duty.
Lien, meaning "clear" supplies a choice between right & wrong actions.
I, meaning "proper" carries out the action in accordance with social order.
Li, meaning "reason" "regulates the outward form of that particular action."
