<Lie zi> is a classic book which records the representative figures of Pre-Qin Taoism of Lie Yukou and his post-scholars thoughts.The book <Lie zi> is divided into eight chapters,but the original book has been lost in the Han Dynasty,which was compiled by Wei and Jin people.The earliest complete version of "Lie Zi" is from the early Northern Song dynasty edited by(Qing)Huang Pilie.The original book is not a one-time work,but is the crystallization of Lie Zi and his later studies.<Lie zi> has a wild style,subtle rationale,mixed thoughts,and neat content.The main line of thought that runs through the whole book is "sheng".In the concept category of Chinese classical philosophy,"Sheng " is not only a common word produced as verb representation,but also a philosophical concept with theoretical connotation,which has the meaning of logical level as philosophical category and " expressing unity of existence,universal connection and universal criterion ".For example,Mr.Zhang Dai-nian divides the philosophical meaning of "sheng" into the sheng of generation,the sheng of life and the sheng of existence.<Lie zi> also presents a strong philosophical meaning of "sheng ",which can be analyzed from four dimensions: the basis of "sheng",the life of "sheng",the "life" and "health" of sheng and the keep in good health of "sheng".The research on the main contents of"Sheng"philosophy in<Lie zi>firstly discusses the basis of"Sheng",that is,"Tao"of"Tao"(道),"de"(德)of"tian di"(天地)and and"Qi"(气)of"Chong he Qi"(冲和气),that’s constitute the basis of"Sheng"philosophy in<Lie zi>.Secondly,it discusses the"sheng"thought of"life".On the basis of"the reason of the living is the end",the cognition of life process is divided into four stages:baby,young,old and dead.Because life is short and precious,Therefore,the author puts forward the thought of"Lose a hair to benefit the world are do not doing"(损一毫利天下不与也)and the theory of"fate control"(制命在内)are proposed.Thirdly,life can not be separated from the discussion of life and death.This paper sums up the main idea of life and death of<Lie zi>as"seeing life as death"(视生如死),Through the comparison of the difference between life and death,the definition of life and death of"the change of Yin and Yang,(阴阳之所变者,谓之生,谓之死),the concept of life and death of"death and return to the past"(死之与生一往一返)and"Be funny and live forever,Why do you panic after death?"(且趣当生,奚遑死后),In other words,the interesting idea of life and Be at ease with death was analyzed.Finally,we should also discuss the conservation of"sheng".Through the principle of"Zhai Xin Fu xing"(斋心服形),"through the creation of things"(通乎物之所造,"Health care content of“Whatever you want to hear...Whatever you want to do”(恣耳之所欲听……恣意之所欲行)and By means of the methods of"Xing-Shi"(形释),"Yang-qi"(养气),"Xu-Jing"(虚静)and"self-forgotten"(自忘)Analyze the life and death of<Lie zi>.In the deduction section of"Sheng"thought in the classic annotation,three classics of Zhang Zhan’s"<Lie zi>Note",Lu Chongxuan’s"<Lie zi>Jie"and Lin Xiyi’s"<Lie zi>Yan Zhai Kou Yi"are selected to analyze,which represent the representative<Lie zi>annotation books of Jin,Tang and Song dynasties respectively.Among them,Zhang Zhan’s"suddenly born"(忽尔而自生),Lu Chongxuan’s"Shen"(神)interpretation of"sheng",Lin Xiyi’s"sheng qi"(生气)theory have their own characteristics,which can help us to understand more comprehensively and meticulously the evolution of<Lie zi>’s"Sheng"thought in Later period.In the analysis of the ideological characteristics of"Sheng",the article puts forward that the essence of"Sheng"is"zi sheng"(自生).This paper presents the dynamic view of the thought of"sheng"through the analysis of Zi Ran(自然)as the value,everything as the object(万物),"Chang"(常)as the operating mechanism,and"Yin Xun"(因循)as the practice rule.Finally,in the modern evaluation of the thought of"sheng",through the discussion of the enlightenment of"sheng"at the individual level and the social level,it can make the realistic meaning of"sheng"thought clear:for individuals,the idea of respecting life,self-sufficiency in nature,and"Diao Lu Fu Pu"(雕琭复朴)is of constructive significance to realize the truth of life;for society,the idea of"Wu Wei(无为)action,useless and"sheng with all things with me"provides enlightening value for solving ecological crisis and promoting the idea of governance.
