“兼相爱”与“交相利”的内在统一——简论墨子的思想

The Intrinsic Unification in "Universal Loving" and "Multilateral Benefiting"

墨子是春秋战国时期伟大的思想家、社会活动家。著作《墨子》记述了他周游列国,宣传墨家思想和主张,人人要相爱相利,社会要避免战争。墨子提倡“兼相爱”、“交相利”,即大家都象爱自己一样爱别人,人不分贵贱,饥者得食,寒者得衣,劳者得息。“兼爱”、“非攻”,是整个墨家思想体系的核心。《墨子》所包含的哲学思想,代表着社会的进步。墨家学说是中华民族文化史上一笔巨大的精神财富。

Mo - tse was a great thinker and social activist in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods in ancient China. The book ＂Mo - tse＂ recorded his travel around the warring states to spread his Mohist thought, e. g. , people love each other and avoid war in the world. Mo -tse advocated ＂Universal Loving＂ and ＂Multilateral Benefiting＂, namely, everybody love others as loving themselves, people get foods if hungry, get clothes if cold, get rest after working, no matter they are in high positions or low. ＂Universal Loving＂ and ＂Multilateral Benefiting＂ is the core spirit in Mohist school ideology. ＂Mo -tse＂ contains the Mohist philosophic thought, representing the social progress. The Mohism is a spiritual wealth in the Chinese nation culture history.
