生命与心知的调理——唐君毅论《庄子》

Coordinating Life and Knowledge——Tang junyi’s View on Zhuangzi

唐君毅把《庄子》的宗旨归结为"生命和心知的调理"。他对"生命"的诠释不同于一般学者所注重的自由意识,而偏向于一种责任意识。"心知"则是偏重从"用心"的意义上来把握知识的价值。唐君毅从生生流行的角度进入《庄子》,以心作为生命的主体,既向外敞开而有所知,又保持内在的虚灵,以化除生命流行历程中心知可能带来的负面影响,进而成就理想的人生境界。从唐君毅的诠释中,可以明显看出他是本于儒家的立场来解读《庄子》的。

Tang junyi attributed the purpose of Zhuangzi to"coordinating life and knowledge".His interpretation of"life"is different from the sense of freedom that ordinary scholars pay attention to,but tends to a sense of responsibility."Knowledge"is to focus on the meaning of"mind"to grasp the value of knowledge.Tang junyi entered Zhuangzi from the perspective of birth and popularity,he took the mind as the subject of life,which not only opens to the outside and gets information,but also keeps the inside spacious,so as to eliminate the negative influence that the information may bring about in the process of life popularity,and then achieved the ideal realm of life.According to the interpretation of Tang junyi,it is obvious that he interpreted Zhuangzi from the Confucian standpoint.
