陈白沙传道的语言困境与出路

Language Predicament and Outlet for the Education of CHEN Baisha

在陈白沙的哲学思想中,"道"是一自身合目的性的至上存在,修道成圣是他教育理念的核心追求。然而,这种至上的道却又是无法言说描状的,圣贤的典籍也无益于道的修证。白沙认为"道"在心中,教育的任务不在于言说描状道,而是设置环境从而形成一特定心境,让心中固有的道自然活泼地呈现,这丰富了语言与教育关系的思考与实践。

In CHEN Baisha's philosophy,the aim of the 'Dao' is itself,and it is the supreme being.The core of his education concept is being a saint by preach.However,such supreme 'Dao' couldn't be described by the language.Ancient books and records of saints couldn't help the cultivation and certification of 'Dao'.CHEN Baisha considered 'Dao' as being in the heart,and the task of education is not to describe 'Dao' by language but to set the environment for special feel of our heart.And then,'Dao' in the heart expresses naturally.It enriches thought and practice of the relationship between language and education.
