Why did ancient Chinese people value jade(玉, yù)so highly?
In traditional Chinese culture, jade was not only beautiful — it symbolized protection, status, spirituality, and connection to Heaven.

In this lecture, Mr. He explains:
• why jade was used in rituals
• the meanings of 璧(bì), 環(huán), and 玦(jué)
• how jade related to social rank and ancient etiquette(禮, lǐ)
• why jade was believed to protect the body and spirit

This class also explores the connection between jade, acupuncture points, and traditional Chinese thought.
