An Analysis Of Zhuangzi’s Thought Of "Having Emotion Without Being Dragged Down"

Zhuang Zi,as a research focus in the history of Chinese philosophy,has always been concerned and has important research value and ideological significance in the history of thought."Affection" is a corner of Zhuangzi’s philosophy,and there is little attention paid to it,especially the lack of research on Zhuangzi’s attitude towards emotion.Therefore,the analysis of "affection" in Zhuangzi is helpful to think about Zhuangzi’s understanding of emotion and life,and clarify the basis of Zhuangzi’s not tired of affection.Throughout the book,we can find that Zhuangzi is not "ruthless",but "love",even "affectionate" person.In Zhuangzi’s opinion,birds,trees,fish and other things are sentient.In addition,"Qing" in Zhuangzi is also reflected in the description of family affection and friendship,as well as the disclosure of their own feelings.In fact,Chuangtzu’s "not hurting his body with his likes and dislikes",so as to "protect himself" and "the whole nature",not being tired by things,"the same as the road".Therefore,the theoretical basis of Chuang-tzu’s realization of "being free from emotion" lies in his core thought of "Taoism",which is not only the starting point of Chuang-tzu’s philosophical thinking,but also the basic point of Chuang-tzu’s philosophical thinking of "having emotion without being tired".The establishment of "Taoism" thought is closely related to his epistemology and attitude towards life.Therefore,Zhuangzi took "xinzhai","sitting and forgetting","empty and quiet" as the way of "body and Tao" to get rid of the obstacles of "mindfulness" and not disturbed by emotions.In the past,most of the attention to the "affection" is reflected in the sorting of its "Qing" meaning,ignoring the analysis of "Zhuangzi is not involved in emotion".Therefore,the analysis of Zhuangzi ’s philosophical thought of "feeling without being tired" is helpful to analyze Zhuangzi ’s thinking on the settlement of individual life and explore the spiritual freedom that Chuang-tzu’s pursues from the perspective of emotion.Zhuangzi of emotions and thinking about the problems of life,to be able to provide a new solution for modern people to deal with emotional problems,focus on individual’s inner life,realize own life settle down.
