Study On The Chinese Ancient Inhabitants' Spiritual World From The Perspective Of Pre-Qin Scholars

After thousands of years of accumulation ,Chinese traditional ideological culture with extensive and profound meaning will be required to explore its root dating back to the Pre-Qin times. The soul of the traditional culture which started in Pre-Qin Dynasty has still been permeating the Chinese people's life. The Chinese way of thinking, values, attitudes toward life have formed the basis of national personality to retain the character of the ancient inhabitants . These things in Chinese people's spiritual world have retained inheritance, as our ancestors left us with genes, although slight variations, but most of which, such as black hair and yellow skin,has remained the same immortally. Based on the analysis of the Pre-Qin Zhu-Zi's thought summed up, trying to show the rough picture of the Chinese pioneers'spiritual world from several aspects,I write with a view to exploring the root of the traditional Chinese culture .In this paper, I make the analysis of the cognitive way, values, and attitude toward life, the three aspects of the spiritual world of the pioneers , and summarize its characteristics and the impact on future generations. In the stating of every aspect , I start again with analyzing Pre-Qin Zhu-Zi'thought and attempt to summarize the similarities and differences reflecting in their thoughts on the characteristics of the pioneers'spiritual world.The first chapter summed up the connotation of the pioneers's values , benefiting from the concept of justice, the group and religion, and described characteristics of the traditional values from the three aspects . In-Concept, the Pre-Qin Confucianism advocates that profit goes after moral ; Mo Zi promote the unity of the utilitarianism; Lao Zi advocated covert utilitarianism; Zhuang Zi advocated giving up moral and profit for the benefit of freedom; Han Fei advocated benevolent utilitarianism. In the group concept, Confucianism insist the personal services the principles of groups; Mozi stressed that "Universal Love" and the principle of safeguarding the interests of the groups; Taoists advocated individual competition from the principle that bustling disposable Alienation benevolent anti-humanitarian; Han Fei advocate of non-moral-autocratic monarchy. In the concept of heaven, Confucius argue that heaven can not be defied, but is not negative determinism; Mencius had given to heaven the moral attributes that same with humanity; Xun Zi, is a holder of the view of natural universe, recognizing that human should dominate nature; Mo Zi opposed Confucius'opinion ,at the same time stressed the importance of the subjective, and considered that "Heaven" has a moral personality attributes with the awareness of moral and evil.Pre-Qin Taoism'"Road" can be regarded as all things and the fundamental principle of law, and "Heaven" is so natural that people should follow the law of nature. Summing up the above, we can see that the values of our ancestors mainly includes the following characteristics: to maintain the bottom line in the Confucian ethics of justice and interests choice ; individual under the principle of the value of the groups and the pursuit of the value of unity; the heaven's character attributes and natural attributes staggered under the reality of spirit. Chinese Pioneers'core values system is built on the blood on the basis of the traditional patriarchal morality, and ultimately boils down to the cherishing and maintaining of the life of group.Chapter II stating on the contents of the pioneers'cognitive style . Pre-Qin Confucianism with Confucius, Mencius, and Xunzi as the representative, mainly reflects the thinking of the emotional experience, intuitive understanding and the cognitive system as a whole. Pre-Qin Taoism, represented by Lao Zi and Zhuang Zi, mainly reflects the thinking of backward and intuitive understanding of the cognitive approach. Mohist Mozi represented by its "three table" mode of thinking reflects the understanding of the pioneers of empirical way; Mozi's logic is different from the traditional Chinese way of thinking and similar with the Western formal logic, so it had been disappeared because of the geographical and social environment . Yin and yang element is proposed by Zou Yan ,whose intuitive way of thinking reflects the cognitive style of emotional experience and analogy. In a word, the Chinese pioneers'cognitive approach mainly take the form of emotional experience, intuitive understanding, the overall system, the dual dialectical and analog mode, and so forth.Chapter III summed up the attitude toward life and the pioneers'group character traits. Pre-Qin Confucianism stressed that internal upright character cultivation while arguing that changing the external flexibility of the attitude toward Life; Lao Zi advocated inaction of life criteria and pliancy indisputable attitude; Zhuang Zi denide secular utilitarian, who yearned for a detached reality free lifestyle ; Mo Zi workers from the lower point of view, insisted the principles of utilitarian reality in life. Pre-Qin Scholars'attitudes toward life reflect the Chinese pioneers'resilience torsion,aggressive,optimistic, freedom and carefree attitude toward life,as well as their industrious , subtle ,stable and lasting, pragmatic character.In the conclusions of the article, describe the main characteristics of the pioneers'spiritual world, and the important role and impact that Pre-Qin Zhu Zi had taken in the process of the construction of the pioneers'spiritual world.
