A Study Of Human Being’s Double Life And Value In Practice View

As early as in ancient Greece, philosophers had explored the nature of human. As far as ancient Greek’s concerned, on the one hand, people keeping consistent with the natural instincts and physical life of animals. On the other hand, people’s real and more advanced perceptual life has a big difference with the animals. In the middle ages, the philosophers interpreted the man as a kind of power, which is beyond the natural existence, and even thought that the master of everything in the world should be God. Therefore, religious theology of human life make the double rules and interpretation, On the one hand, it is the combination of body and soul, on the other hand, it is the special condition of human life, which makes people keep the spirit of independence and purity. By the eighteenth Century, The French philosophers understand the human’s life is a kind of natural existence, there is a kind of perceptual. German philosophers put forward the people’s spiritual activity and the active creativity of the people in the study of the drawbacks and limitations of the French philosopher. It can be seen that the understanding of human life by modern western philosophers is single, abstract and absolute.Marxism not only inherited some of the predecessors’ thoughts, even beyond their predecessors’ thoughts. He thinks people are not only the human perceptual, and a social person, more is the historical existence, and absolutely is not the abstract person, so the significance of the presence of human life to in the practical activities of human life can be enriched and perfected. That is, Marx believes that the fundamental difference between people and animals is that people’s awareness of the life and activities, and the deep meaning of this conscious life activity is to refer to people’s labor practice. Through the understanding of the practical activities of human life, it can be concluded that human life has the double characteristics of free life and self life. Free life provides the material basis for the existence of life, and it is the meaning of life to ensure the existence of free life, therefore, the two in the practice of human life activities have been organic unity.Practice makes the theory possible that people can have double life, and it show the value of this theory. As an existence who is in-itself, human being is the same as the animals in the embodiment of value, that value is "being alive". As an existence who is for-itself, human being reflects a higher level of the value of life, that is "how to live". That is the radical difference between the value of human being and animal. Moreover, human being’s life value has close contact with human being’s essence, the value of human being’s life cannot be discussed in isolation from human being’s essence. The essence of human being’s life promoted from in-itself life to for-itself life through practical activities, then human being’s double life come true. So human being’s life value includes the object and subject value, the material and spirit value, the inherent and external value, self value and the social value. Therefore, through the research of human being’s double life and the value of it, we can establish right view of life and value, learn how to respect and care the existence of human life, and then full display and expand human’s life.
