朱子和谐四重奏与当代社会

On Zhu Xi's Harmony Quartet and its Impact on Contemporary Society

朱子是宋代新儒学的集大成者,是中华文化承先启后、继往开来的文化巨人。朱子和谐观包含四重含义:心和、人和、协和、中和,它们分别指向身心和谐、人际和谐、世界和谐和天人和谐,具有多维性和普遍性,是一个逐步放大的同心圆,一个逐步上升的理想境界。朱子的和谐四重奏,由低级到高级,由自我到他人,由人际到国别,由人类到宇宙,奏响了一曲美妙的乐章,对当代和谐社会的建构意义深远。

Zhu Xi is the greatest master of Neo-Confucianism in the Song Dynasty and a cultural giant in Chinese culture.Zhu Xi＇s theory of harmony contains four implications： harmony of mind,human,Concorde and medium,which respectively refer to harmony between body and mind,between persons,between countries and between nature and human.With multidimensionality and universality,Zhu Xi＇s harmony quartet is a step-by-step enlargement of concentric circles,a gradually rising ideal realm,from low to high,from self to others,from interpersonal to national,from human to universe,like a beautiful piece of music,which will have a far-reaching significance for the present construction of a harmonious society.
