The value of seeking truth from facts lies in "seeking"

2026-03-24   

Since the establishment and practice of the correct view of political achievements through learning and education, many party members and cadres have gained a deeper understanding of the four words "seeking truth from facts": "Starting from reality and working according to rules in work and entrepreneurship" "To create achievements that can withstand scrutiny, the key is to seek truth from facts"... Seeking truth from facts is the basic ideological method, working method, and leadership method of our party, and the fundamental requirement for us to understand and transform the world. All the achievements we have made in the past were based on seeking truth from facts. However, in practical work, it is not an easy task to always be pragmatic. Difficulty lies in the word 'seek', and nobility lies in the word 'seek'. Whether one can understand the truth and grasp the rules tests the ability and style of party members and cadres. We often say that without investigation, there is no right to speak. In reality, some party members and cadres are accustomed to sitting in the office listening to reports and reading materials, even if they go to the grassroots level, they are just scratching the surface and taking a quick look. Some party members and cadres are not good at doing mass work, and their hearts are not close, their words are not consistent, they cannot ask for the truth, and they cannot obtain the "truth". So, they rely on their experience and feelings to make decisions, and the result is often a "tiny difference, a thousand miles of error". The word 'seek' not only involves the question of 'whether it is possible', but also the questions of 'dare not' and 'do you want to'. This tests people even more. When facing difficulties and challenges, should we face them head-on or take a detour? Some people choose the latter. They are afraid of taking risks and being stubborn, so they started making superficial appearances. When facing the opinions of superiors, should we adhere to principles or bow to them? Some people choose the latter. They are afraid of angering their leaders and affecting their future, so they report good news instead of bad news and choose what their leaders like to hear. Also, when it comes to considering personal interests, should we keep a clear distinction between public and private, or be concerned about gains and losses? Some people choose the latter. They calculate small accounts and personal accounts, which makes it easy to overlook the actual situation. When they get angry, they will engage in "political achievement projects" and willingly become "peace officials" to protect themselves. It can be seen that sometimes not starting from reality is not because one cannot touch the "truth"; Not following the rules is not because we cannot find the "rules", but because we have been influenced by some factors and our thoughts have been hindered. Seeking truth from facts is the only way to withstand scrutiny. The word 'seeking' is easy to understand but difficult to implement, and fundamentally depends on whether the stance is firm or not, and whether the party spirit is strong or not. A person with firm party spirit always holds the overall situation and the people in their heart, without any special interests of their own. Only in this way can one be selfless and broad-minded, and achieve truth from facts. Gu Wenchang is such a model. At that time, he took a huge risk and suggested to the county committee to change the term "enemy puppet family members" to "military disaster family members". He said, 'The able-bodied men were kidnapped, and their families were the victims.' 'Communists must dare to face reality and be responsible to the people.'. Later, this suggestion was adopted. The difference between two words is the distinction between heaven and earth. Seeking truth from facts is precious! The period of the 15th Five Year Plan is a crucial period for consolidating the foundation and making comprehensive efforts to achieve socialist modernization. The more critical the period, the more we need to establish and practice a correct view of political achievements, and integrate "seeking truth from facts" throughout the entire process of work and entrepreneurship. Let us take this learning and education as an opportunity to hone our strong party spirit, calibrate our political achievements, pursue seeking truth from facts as a character, cultivate as a realm, speak the truth, do honest things, and be honest people. We must work hard and strive for excellence. (New Society)
