Knowledge-centered education and the method of "pulling up seedlings in the mistaken hope of helping children to grow" have broken the natural development of children.They force children to be an object of modification or get into a molding process,resulting in damaging children's eco-development and pushing our education in opposite direction.This research aims to advocate natural education and to solve the actual educational dilemma.This dissertation focuses on understanding the core issue of natural education.Regarding the complexity of this issue,researcher tries to expound it from the dimension of children,teacher,nature and culture by employing a dynamic,organic and united law in order to overcome duality bias.Natural education considers children as a logical starting point of education,and this is where the original educational secret lies.Everything should be revolved around children.This does not mean that we should let them do whatever they like,but to treat them as sacred beings.Educators should discard their narrow and isolated viewpoints and consider them as divine beings with awe and respect Children come into the world through incarnation,and there is an inevitable route in their development.The development of children's follows the natural law unconsciously,and they have unlimited openness and great growing power endowed by the nature.Thus,education must start from children.Educational innovation should start with discovering children's divine being.In addition,natural education also discovers a new dimension of teacher.Teacher is not only a professional person,but also a human being.His/her mission is to provide necessary help to children's natural development S/he can also build his/her ego through seeing children as a natural being.In this way,natural education provides common growth of teacher and child.Natural education emphasizes children's nature,and transforms the educational standard from codes and rules to the focus of children's being.Then the education will be implemented based on children's natural growth and development Besides,natural education creates growing environment for children,in which the nature of children's being can grow freely.However,the significance and value of culture should not be ignored Culture can be renewed and lead children to discover their beings at a higher place.Then natural education means to prepare the way for children through culture.Children are miraculous creation of nature.And the aim of education should not focus on creating new children,but to help them to renew themselves.Thus,the children are the future of human race,and natural education is the way to an ideal society.
