老子的人生境界论探微

On Laozi's Theory of Life Realms

以"道"为圭臬,老子将人生境界区分为俗人境界、圣人境界、赤子境界三个层次。俗人境界是与"道"相悖的境界;圣人境界是几于"道"的境界,其重要特点是"啬";赤子境界是同于"道"的境界,其根本特征是"自然"。赤子境界体现了老子对人的终极关怀。实现人的自由个性及宇宙万物的平等、自由、和谐是赤子境界向人们昭示的人生最高价值。

Based on ＂Tao＂, Laozi put life realms into three gradations - common realm , wise realm and newborn baby realm . The common realm is opposite to ＂Tao＂ while the wise realm typical of ＂stinginess＇is based on ＂Tao＂ and the newborn baby realm typical of ＂nature＂ is similar to ＂Tao＂ . The innocent realm reflects Laozi＇s great concern for human to realize human free personalities and equality, freedom and harmony of all things on the earth , which declares the greatest value of Laozi.
