This article is based on The Analects of Confucius. First, we describe how Confucius suffered form the losses of his father, mother, brother, wife, son and disciple but still conformed to life as it was and followed Li (etiquette). Second, this paper argues that Confucius made a profession of undertaking and faced death over time without losing his genuine feelings. Moreover he sincerely performed the funerary and worshiping ceremonies with all his heart, due to the fact that behind these rituals was his faith in the heaven. Then what is it like it the netherworld? Addressing to this issue sometimes, Confucius and other Confucians were mostly concerned with the moralizing function of the earthly world. This is certainly in accordance to the attitude advocated by "when you know a thing, to hold that you know it; and when you do not know a thing, to allow that you do not know it; this is knowledge." But it doesn't mean the problems of after-death retribution can be ignored. Finally, one of the religious aspects of Confucius's thought is exemplified in the saying that "if the could hear the Dao in the morning, that evening he could die content," that is, it's possible that' a change of mind" could settle our life for good. Therefore our conclusion is: Confucius probably had a certain fixed opinion about death.
