Guo Xiang's Interpretation Of Zhuangzi's View Of Freedom

In traditional Chinese thought,Laozi and Zhuangzi have the most free spirit.Laozi's political thought of doing nothing and doing nothing contains a strong spirit of freedom.Laozi believes that if the ruler does nothing,the people have more free space and grow and develop according to their original features(natural).This is political freedom,which is Berlin's so-called negative freedom.Zhuangzi is keenly aware of the restrictions imposed on people's freedom in the secular world that is plagued by turbulence.It requires a certain amount of self-cultivation to elevate the ideological realm of the individual and even the entire society,thus freeing itself from restrictions and pursuing freedom.This freedom belongs to Berlin's so-called positive freedom,which is self-directed,self-controlled freedom.Guo Xiang's free thought was put forward on the basis of Lao Zhuang.On the one hand,the rulers were asked to do nothing,giving the people more freedom in politics;on the other hand,they also demanded that the people conform to their own nature and gain freedom.The issue of freedom is a fundamental issue that Zhuang Zi has faced and needs to be solved by ancient and modern Chinese and foreign thinkers.This article mainly explains Zhuangzi and Guo Xiang's free thought from the following four aspects.The first chapter mainly explains Zhuangzi's transcending freedom view.Zhuangzi described the man of God completely abandon all kinds of secular ideas,without any virtue,so there is no restriction,endless swimming between heaven and earth,so as to achieve beyond the ideal realm of carefree.The first section elaborates on the predicament of life and the reason why Chuang Tzu thinks people are not free.Chuang-Tzu's view of the secular society,which constituted a variety of restrictions on the freedom of man.The second section expounds how to realize the freedom of Zhuangzi.From the angle of "all things",Chuang-Tzu breaks through the limitation of space to people,and through the angle of "one dead student",breaks through the limitation of time to people,and finally achieves the breakthrough of cognitive limitation from the angle of "the right and wrong",and renders the freedom.The third section mainly discusses the Kungfu and realm problems that Zhuangzi forgets.Zhuangzi believes that a few saints,God-man,to the people through a certain degree of self-cultivation,can achieve the realm of no waiting for carefree.Chapter Two mainly explains the freedom of Guo Shangzhi foot.Guoxiang on the basis of Lao Zhuang's philosophy,he founded the theory of playing independently's free and carefree,and thought that although there are differences in all things,as long as they are willful enough,they will be content with their own "sex points",and they will be able to reach the full of carefree.The first section mainly describes the Guoxiang "self" problem.Guoxiang that the existence of all things is based on its own "sex",and its own nature has an immutable character.The second section mainly explains the Guoxiang sentient beings to be carefree.In Guoxiang's view,although sentient beings have virtue,but once they have their own conditions,they can be full of carefree.The third verse goeson to explain that the saints are free.The Saints are able to attain higher levels of freedom because they are not treated.The fourth section compares and analyzes the relationship between Guo Xiang and the absence of free and unfettered.By comparison,we can know that there is a difference between carefree and carefree,but it is unified in the realm of carefree.The third chapter grasps the similarities and differences of Zhuangzi and Guo's Freedom view in general.In the same way,Zhuangzi and Guo's view of freedom belong to the Chinese traditional free form and recognize the immutable "established circumstances".In different aspects,the biggest difference is that Zhuangzi is beyond freedom,and Guoxiang another new world,the establishment of the foot of the carefree system.The fourth chapter mainly analyzes the theory gain and the social significance of the two kinds of freedom view of Zhuangzi and Guo Xiang.By analyzing Zhuangzi and Guo's view of freedom,both belong to the free form of Chinese Traditional society,which is an important embodiment of the thought of Chinese traditional social freedom.From the point of view of modern freedom Theory,Zhuangzi and Guoxiang's view of freedom,it seems to say,are not true scientific freedom concept,at most can only say that Chuang Tzu recognized the reality of social and political interference and restrictions,the need to improve their spiritual state through self-cultivation,so as to get rid of all kinds of interference and restrictions,freedom.This kind of freedom belongs to the so-called positive freedom of Berlin,that is,the freedom of self orientation and self-control.Guoxiang's freedom thought is put forward on the basis of Lao Zhuang,on the one hand demands the ruler inaction,gives the populace more freedom in politics,on the other hand also demands the populace to conform to own nature,and obtains the freedom.
