As a very famous writer in China, Shi Tiesheng is a unique one full offrustrations in his whole life. He is bravely confronted with his sickish body as well asthe rough life, observing the finiteless possibilities of the life with his brain in finitewriting space and a special writing condition, expressing sensitive emotions in hiswritings. Furthermore poetic language, clinging pursuit and philosophic thoughts in hiswritings indicate the trait of placid, sedate and sapiential. His language is not ardent butimpressive; his writing is not unfathomable but unforgettable. He is not high-soundingbut startling. The most important thing he does is to devote his whole zests to be deeplyconcerned the living conditions of human beings when he salvages himself. He is thefirst one among contemporary writers in China who set up the literary concept forhuman being's survival plight, and also is the first one who introduces "the processstatement" of anima philosophy with optimism and idealism to the course of humanbeing's lives. In the era devoiding of the soul construction and mental belief, ShiTiesheng' writings can inspire us to be deeply concerned with the significance of life.This thesis aims to explore an elicitation and the significance brought by the processfrom observing the real existence of selves moving up to pondering the human being'ssurvival plight with the analysis of his mental change and his opinions toward disability,death, and destiny as well as his self-salvation in fragmentary living plight and hisunique writing points formed in the special writing conditions.The first part unbearable weightiness in lifeHe experiences unbearable suffering in his life because of his disability, so hemainly employs disable as topic in his early writings to excessively depicthandicapped's painfulness and gloominess which others can not understand and theirdesires to death when pursuing the light in plight, expressing the feelings of despair,haphazard and mysterious but ignore the body's ailment caused by disability.Meanwhile he also expresses that these disabled people are not self-abandoned but tryto seek the way of self-salvation. Moreover he does not surrender confronted with thedesire of death but goes to death calmly.The second part Self-salvation in fragmentary lifeShi Tiesheng is not lingering on his own disability any more after a deep consideration but carrying on self-salvation with great efforts. He delivers the sufferinglife with the belief of love and disentangles the bandage of the soul with the experienceof beauty. He tastes significance of life resulted by breaking through the three plights oflife in the course of pursuing broad affections and aesthetic experience lying in creatinga wonderful process and eternal transcendent.The third part Shi Tiesheng's literature points in writingThe disability forces Shi Tiesheng to choose the writing as a living way, and hisliterary points was formed at the same time. Through the sincere feelings and naivewriting attitudes, he touches human beings' soul with his pen, seeking a dwellinghomestead for the soul of human beings, at the early beginning of the view of the soul,enlightening literary writing and human being's innate plight rooted from the same. Hebelieves that the reconstruction of religion spirit can transcend the plight and realize thebelief, meanwhile Shi Tiesheng transcend his own "heavy flesh body" based on thisbearing.Conclusion:Three living plights are summed up through individual survival experience; ShiTiesheng delivers the significance of life to the process of ideality. Intense religiousspirit is filtered in the writing, he employs Buddhism to deal with suffering, employs thewisdom of Christianism to salvage the life, employs literary writing to explore humanbeing's innate plight. The eternal existence of plight means the endless of salvation;scilicet literary writing examining the existence of individual spirit is a constanttranscendental process.
