In the history of the Chinese nation, the image established by the hermit forms a unique spirit of Chinese culture. The study of most hermit thoughts focuses on the collection of poetry and essays such as songs, metaphors, and inspirations, or the differences and evolution of the hermits in the dynasties. However, this article wants to explore the spirit and value of the hermit-Zheng Ziling and its thoughts in Chinese culture.

The moral core of Confucianism in Chinese culture is based on benevolence. Self-cultivation reaches the realm of the inner and outer kings, and actively integrate into society, but retreat in chaos. Taoism is quiet, inaction, nature and anti-intellectualism, and its hermit thought is the hidden point of advocating the level of natural soul. Neo-Confucianism attaches great importance to the integrity of the Qi, righteousness, sincerity, self-cultivation and knowledge, and the hermit has regarded this criterion as a standard in his life. The hermit thoughts of Buddhism are mainly based on the "clear mind" of the practice of the world, "Mind" is wisdom, "Character" is buddha, that is, sensibility; the sensation has great wisdom, and all beings are for themselves. Based on the content and meaning of "Yanling Fishing Platform", this study cites Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, and demonstrates the spirit of hermit and Chinese culture.

In addition, the hermit thoughts and the Chinese loyalists who have integrated into society have the same ideological foundation, following the sages, self-cultivation, and loyalty and filial piety as the code of conduct. This is nothing but an external manifestation with morality as the core. Morality is the greatest wealth left by the ancient sages, and it is also the ultimate goal of the Chinese culture.
