正, "zheng", is correct. Not "chuan". The 巛, "chuan", that you see is actually the hairs on a person's head, which is represented by the two dots on the top of 首 today.

賢, "xian" = virtuous, virtuously

宗, "zong" = ancestors, ancestral

首, "shou" = head; leader; first, firstly

正, "zheng" = correct, correctly; positive, positively
