The Explanation Of Spiritual Life Under The Theory Of Practice

Human being is the secret of spiritual life,whose complexity in practice constitutes the overall structure of man's life.Any kind of life activity,including spiritual life,can only be relatively understood objectively and comprehensively when putting in the overall life structure and comparing with other areas' practical activities.Therefore,the key to understand spiritual life is to understand the interactive relationship between life's overall structure and the elements of it.Above is this thesis' s focus and the writer will try to expand the research on spiritual life since spiritual life still needs to be completed in the perspective of political philosophy and its political implication is waiting for exploration.The logic and main ideas of this research are as follows:First,figuring out the historical and thinking pedigree of the relationship between spiritual life and political life and seeking the relation between spiritual life view and realistic political situation,then grasping the inner character of spiritual life in the cross-field of the philosophy of consciousness and political philosophy.Through the above clarification,the writer has the following standpoint: The political implication of spiritual life is the original meaning of human being's life and spiritual life is political and social in essence.The meet of philosophy and politics provides a clear and detailed angle to comprehend the relationship between spiritual and political life.But it should be noticed that philosophy reflects politics and originates from the moment when political life declines.The ancient Greek philosophers hoped to solve realistic political problems by means of conceptual politics and cure the trauma caused by political life by utilizing the principles of spiritual life,which put spiritual life at a detached position.And this understanding to spiritual life itself is the formation of the spiritual life view of transcendentalism,which reached the climax in Christian theocracies in the Middle Age and became the social consciousness of ordinary people.With the modern transformation of the overall life structure,spiritual life view of transcendentalism is challenged by modern spiritual life view of naturalism and spiritual life view of apriorism.Thus the relationship between spiritual life and political life becomes a question once again and exploring the real foundation of spiritual life and rebuilding the basis of it become an urgent subject of the times.Second,grasping modern people's understanding to the relationship between spiritual and political life through the perspective of enlightenment and thus clarifying Marx's thoughts of spiritual life and its characteristics and development history.The key point of this phase is: Marx's thought on spiritual life is formed by inheriting and selectively absorbing the ideas of Kant and Hegel on the moral politics track of enlightenment.Specifically,Marx's thought on spiritual life has three development processes,namely,moral politics' subjective dimension and objective dimension,and the enlightenment tradition beyond moral politics.In Marx's view,problems of spiritual life belong to the general problems of human liberation.Political liberation,with the purpose of social liberation,is the realistic method to retake the political implication of spiritual life provided by Marx.And historical materialism,as the theoretical form of “revolutionary practice”,whose essence is the structural interaction theory on the basis of relational thinking.Although Marx did not directly illustrate spiritual life too much,the world view he left helps us a lot to learn the modern situation and political implication of spiritual life.Third,presenting modern people's problems they encounter in spiritual life by reflecting the reflection to modern Western philosophy and social critical theory.From the writer's point of view,modern Western thinkers' attention to spiritual life and their analysis to problems of spiritual life represent modern people's spiritual living dilemma strongly and clearly.But being confined by the negative understanding to the relationship between spiritual life and political life and their ingrained elitist standpoint,the solution to the dilemma only relies on individual's spiritual awareness.In the face of the strong “alliance” of capital market and state apparatus,this aesthetic liberation will definitely come to “resistance's desperation” from “desperate resistance” because it cannot be achieved.Finally moral politics will be given up absolutely and they cannot extricate from the paradigm of political realism.Finally,expecting the future of human being's spiritual life and giving the writer's thought to its feasibility and possibility with communism at its core.In the perspective of historical materialism,the modern symptom of spiritual life shows the alienation state of man's overall existing mode,which is caused by the injustice of capital logic and capitalist system.But as the transition period of the development of human history,social reality of capitalism provides an actual possibility to sublate the current dilemma.Historical materialism presents a practical route and thinking direction to transcend capitalist value system and Western-centrism,sublate Western religious traditions and restrain nihilism through criticizing capitalism in the perspective of ideology,practice and system.
