真、善、美、圣——生命教育的价值追求

Truth,Kindness,Beauty and Holiness——Pursuing the Value of Life's Education

任何教育活动都不可能摆脱价值的影响。生命教育的价值是指生命教育所具有的优化生命存在、提升生命质量的可能。生命教育到底追求一种什么样的可能?笔者认为生命教育的价值追求应该是帮助人们实现生命与自然、与自我、与社会、与超自然之间的和谐,亦即重塑生命与自然之真,追求生命与社会之善,完善生命与自我之美,向往生命与超自然之圣,从而达到真、善、美、圣的人生境界。

None of the educational activities can eliminate the effects of value. The value of life＇s education means the possibility of optimizing life and promoting the quality of life. What are the possibilities in pursuing life＇s education？ It is regarded that pursuing the value of life＇s education should be helping people achieve harmony between life and nature, ego, society as well as the supernatural. That is to say, in order to reach such states in life as truth, kindness, beauty and holiness, it is essential to remold the truthfulness between life and nature, kindness and the society, to perfect the beauty between life and oneself, as well as to desire for holiness between life and the supernatural.
