Abstract The Mohist conception of″u niversal impartial love″highlights the ancient precept of righteousness . The Mohist assertion of″harming no one and loving fellow humans″stresses the concept of equality and endorses the primitive idea of democracy . In these aspects ,it not only surpasses the paradoxical Confucian idea of″h umane love″in large measure ,but also helps us correct some defects in the modern Western ideas of″rights″a nd″equality″.
