Fostering virtue is the primary responsibility of master mentors. They should grasp and internalize the gist of responsibility by manifesting the rectitude of rejuvenating the nation, abiding by the public morality of serving the people, and following close to the line of self-cultivation. They should enhance their responsibility awareness with an orientation from the lowest stage of unconsciousness, to consciousness, and then to consciousness with wisdom, the highest stage. They should innovate in methodology by adhering to the thought of learning, thinking, practicing and reflecting, the way of cultivating independence first in themselves and then in others, and the strategy of integrating teaching into research, and by employing an individualized approach and uniting joined efforts.
