Popular philosophers since ancient times of life and death concerns of reflection on the life and death, life is obtained Inherent state and penetrate.In traditional Chinese philosophy, Chuang Tzu's philosophy of life is most abundant and most unique. Zhuang Zi's Life and Death in the "absurd Yau of that absurd statement, the Realm" ("world") the appearance, create a systematic philosophy of life. Zhuang Zi the highest category of philosophy of life is "Dao", which includes: natural life, social life and spiritual life of three. This is the life of this triple perspective to examine the morphology of Chuang Tzu's life and death.From the perspective of natural life, Zhuang Zi first explain the formation of worldly things, development and destruction are due to "gas" caused by the constant movement, while the people of life and death is no exception, is derived from "gas" and everything. Thus derived attitude Zhuang Zi on the natural life: fitness. The so-called "fitness" is alive, the good guardian of its own body; the face of death, to be frank on the, including the progression of the three levels, namely Dasheng, obedience to the music. Confucianism and Taoism through with the natural view of life to compare to highlight the life of Chuang Tzu in the natural horizon, its unique concept of life and death.Chuang Tzu is a strong feeling of the philosopher of life care, coupled with their lives in a "ridge ridge world chaos" ("in the cosmopolitan") era, the rulers "light with the people die, the dead volume to the country almost Chak, if the coke, its not like people are "(" The Human World "). Therefore, how to preserve the people's social life, be a greater concern Zhuangzi, he proposed a series of preservation methods of social life: Useless, in between Wood and Bucai, physical objects and not objects in the object. This is the Confucian, Taoist approach to social life (moral life) approach is very different.Human life, whether natural or social life are subject to many of its authentic state restrictions on the independent character of the longing for, Zhuangzi believes that only the spiritual life free from all external constraints, the absolute freedom could be attained. In the spirit of life to maintain this level Inherent state of life to truly achieve personal independence. This modern spiritual support to find and maintain healthy attitude is helpful.The aim in this paper is to triple the life forms for the vision, perception of Life and Death on the philosophical reflection, in order to obtain the true master of life and death issues. This first chapter of a natural origin of life, and Zhuangzi on the nature of life and attitude and with the Confucian, Taoist compared; the second chapter is highlighted in the factors which undermined the social life of Chuang Tzu advocated that the main Confucian righteousness and the people's fame heart. How to avoid damage to social life, Zhuangzi proposes two main ways.Zhuangzi's view of social life, especially on how to preserve the Confucian, Taoist very different; third chapter of the Zhuangzi's ideal personality of a sort, followed by Chuang Tzu described the ideal personality to achieve its exploration done: there need to be smooth nature, repose, Xujing Oblivion; outside to "no wait", "Let things." So can the "independence" of the realm of "Travel", to achieve the spiritual life of absolute freedom. In part I of this article pointed out that under the Zhuangzi triple life forms life and death for the lifting of all kinds of modern life and death provides a fresh perspective plagued with a different inspiration.
