Research On Zhuangzi's Heart-Shape Concept

Reflecting on the cruelty of social reality,inheriting from Laozi's thought of "body" and "life",criticizing the harm of Confucian benevolence,righteousness,rites and music to human nature,these three are the ideological origins of Zhuangzi's mind and form view.The settlement of individual life in the world is the theme of Zhuangzi's thought.For the thinking of individual life,Zhuangzi mainly starts from two dimensions of mind and body.Therefore,the concept of mind and body is the key to understand Zhuangzi's thought.On the specific meaning of "mind" and "body".First,the mind refers to the inner spirit of human beings.The mind has two characters: the true mind and the prejudiced mind.Among them,the true heart is the true appearance of the mind,and Tao,Morality and Nature are also shown in it.The mind of prejudice is outside the mind,bound by its own standards or the persistence of the body.Second,body is the external representation of human,which refers to human's five senses,body,movement and function.Form has two properties of naturalness and heaviness.The naturalness of the body means that the body of human being is the life of Tao,an objective existence without will and bias.The heaviness of body means that after the birth of body,there is a certain gap between body and inner morality.It is embodied in the socialized and secularized body of being enslaved by prejudices,as well as the limited nature of being in the process of human existence.In the concrete process of human being's existence,the mind shapes influence each other,showing the relationship of opposition and harmony.The antithesis of mind and body is manifested in the emphasis on mind and super body.Man is limited to the limited confinement of mind and body,and falls into the field of view of the opposition between internal spirit and external desire,self and the other,individual life and social reality,so that the mind and body are in a state of opposition.The essence of heart-shaped harmony is the inner realm of human beings,which is the result of observing human beings with Taoism.It is embodied in the complete and refined body,that is,human beings exist in the world with body,and the life of human beings who nourish their nature with mind is quiet and self-adaptive.The existence of Tao means that human life is not separated from mind and body.People have morality,and they can know it by themselves.Therefore,people can realize the truth of life and the harmony of mind and body by forgetting,that is,by reflecting and forgetting the limited,artificial and uncertain experience in the real world.At the same time,the inner realm of Taoism has the nature of generation in essence,so people's grasp of the mind-body relationship will experience the process of harmony from division.Zhuangzi's view of mind and body may face two disputes: one is the uncertainty of the way as the theoretical basis and transcendental basis of the view of mind and body;First,in the face of many unavoidable situations in the world of life,Zhuangzi's attitude towards human life is both negative and positive.On the one hand,Zhuangzi's mind and body theory can make the human body recognize its real value,on the other hand,it can make the human body keep the inner spirit clear and clear.
