This study aims to investigate three passages of the first chapter of Jung-yong in the educational aspect. The first chapter of Jung-yong is learning for life, which embodies core set of values of Neo-Confucianism. This classic book shows how human nature, path of life, culture, and the world are created or built up in an organic fashion. Specifically, the basis of human existence, as well as the path of life and the method of imparting culture to posterity, which will finally be led to education(敎) from the Way of human in order for creation of culture in the path of life, having passed through such developmental process as from Nature(or biddings of Heaven(天命), pronounced Cheonmyeong in Korean) to human nature(性), and from such human nature to the Way(道) of human, are essential points of Confucian education. From the perspective of the bidding of heaven, human nature itself (性) is a norm that should not go against at all, and the Way(道, pronounced Do in Korean) is a method or process to follow our nature, and the Education(敎, Gyo in Korean) is substantial activities to teach people in order to follow such an human nature. Understanding of human and educational aspect expounded in the first chapter of Jung-yong, which is based on the aforementioned significances, may provide for the following implications in the dimension of the principle of modern education.
