保持本色安守本分 ■归涛本者，根也，本立而道生。习主席强调：“领导干部特别是高级干部必须头脑清醒、严格自律，始终保持本色、安守本分，如临如履、谦虚谨慎。”贯彻落实这一重要讲话精神，要求军队领导干部特别是高级干部带头开展思想整风，破除投机取巧心理，把本色融入血脉灵魂、把本分刻进岗位职责，自觉做到懂法纪、明规矩、知敬畏，以实干实绩开创强军事业新局面。本色，即本来面目；本分，即责任义务，二者相辅相成、辩证统一。“我们共产党人的本，就是对马克思主义的信仰，对中国特色社会主义和共产主义的信念，对党和人民的忠诚。”保持本色、安守本分，不仅要做好分内之事，更要守住信仰之“本”、信念之“本”、忠诚之“本”。有了这个根本，领导干部就能把分内之事升华为对人民的赤诚、对事业的担当，清清白白做人、干干净净做事，做到克己奉公、以俭修身、多作贡献。保持本色、安守本分，是领导干部必须具备的政治觉悟和道德品质。徐向前同志一生坚守理想、爱民为民、廉洁奉公，被誉为“布衣元帅”；张达志同志作风正派、严于律己、生活俭朴，从不搞特殊，人称“布衣将军”；林俊德同志“铿锵一生，苦干惊天动地事；淡泊一世，甘做隐姓埋名人”，被官兵称为“布衣院士”……他们一生恪守对党忠诚、心系人民的政治品格，弘扬艰苦朴素、清正廉洁的优良作风，秉持律己从严、守纪如铁的自律精神，靠实干立身、凭实绩进步，为我们树立了保持本色、安守本分的标杆。胜人者有力，自胜者强。现实中，反观一些落马官员，因为投机取巧、攀附钻营而丢了本色、失了本分，最终身败名裂、自尝苦果。这再次警示我们，今天不守规矩、投机取巧的一小步，也许就是明天违纪违规、滑落犯罪深渊的第一步。当前，正值“十五五”开局起步时、攻坚建军百年关键处，更需要领导干部保持本色、安守本分，以良好形象和实际行动取信官兵，让更多新风正气充盈军营。万物得其本者生，百事得其道者成。保持本色、安守本分，离不开正心明道、怀德自重。政德是为官者政治品质、道德操守、作风品行的综合反映。领导干部权力运行是否规范、履职尽责是否真正指向人民，主要取决于政德。领导干部做到一心为公、一身正气、一尘不染，就要坚持以党性标尺律己修身，牢固树立科学的世界观、人生观、价值观和正确的权力观、政绩观、利益观，明大德、守公德、严私德，看淡个人得失、看开功名利禄，力戒特权思想和特权行为，管好身边人身边事。保持本色、安守本分，要自律，也要他律。纪律规矩是“紧箍咒”，也是“安全带”，严守纪律、按规矩办事，是对自己最大的保护。这就要求领导干部带头学纪、知纪、明纪、守纪，以懂法纪筑牢思想防线，以明规矩砥砺政治品格，以知敬畏规范权力运行，做到法规制度面前人人平等，遵守法规制度没有特殊，执行法规制度没有例外，既在守纪上“管住手脚”，又在干事上“放开手脚”，不断把强军事业推向前进。

Summary

Machine summary

An article in what appears to be a PLA political education outlet, authored by Gui Tao, calls on military leading cadres—especially senior officers—to conduct ideological rectification, reject opportunism, and reinforce discipline as the PLA enters the Fifteenth Five-Year Plan period and approaches the centenary-strong military milestone. The piece invokes Xi Jinping's directives on self-discipline alongside historical exemplars including marshals Xu Xiangqian and Zhang Dazhi, framing anti-corruption compliance as inseparable from political loyalty and military readiness. The article is consistent with the PLA's sustained post-2012 pattern of using political education campaigns to reinforce behavioral norms among the officer corps, and contains no new policy content or organizational announcements.
