• Abstract: Chinese Goodness Culture is a spiritual treasure accumulated by the Chinese nation over thousands of years, and its theoretical origins exhibit the characteristic of pluralistic coexistence. Mozi’s “Universal Love” thought, with equality, practicality, and sociality as its core traits, constitutes one of the indispensable core theoretical origins of Chinese Goodness Culture. From a sociological perspective, by analyzing the sociological connotation of the “Universal Love” thought and sorting out its deep homology with Chinese Goodness Culture in terms of value core, practical logic, and social function, we can reveal the theoretical connection between the two as “source” and “flow”. The study finds that the value concept of “equal altruism” advocated by the “Universal Love” thought lays the ethical foundation for the “universal care” of Chinese Goodness Culture; its practical path of “mutual benefit and coexistence” shapes the action tradition of “unity of knowledge and practice” in Chinese Goodness Culture; and its goal orientation of “social order construction” endows Chinese Goodness Culture with the functional attribute of “maintaining the community”. Deeply exploring this theoretical connection can not only clarify the ideological lineage of Chinese Goodness Culture, but also provide academic support for the transformation of the contemporary value of traditional ideological culture. 中华善文化是中华民族数千年积淀的精神瑰宝，其理论源头呈现多元共生特征。墨子“兼爱”思想以平等性、实践性与社会性为核心特质，构成中华善文化不可或缺的核心理论源头之一。从社会学视角出发，通过剖析“兼爱”思想的社会学内涵，梳理其与中华善文化在价值内核、实践逻辑、社会功能层面的深度同源性，可揭示二者“源”与“流”的理论关联。研究发现，“兼爱”思想倡导的“平等利他”价值理念，奠定中华善文化“普遍性关爱”的伦理根基；其“互利共生”的实践路径，塑造中华善文化“知行合一”的行动传统；其“社会秩序构建”的目标导向，赋予中华善文化“维系共同体”的功能属性。深入挖掘这一理论关联，既能厘清中华善文化的思想谱系，更能为传统思想文化的当代价值转化提供学理支撑。
