沿“源”而居,随“道”而行——现象学视域中《老子》的“道”

Living by“Source”,Acting on “Tao”——“Tao” in Lao Tse from the Perspective of Phenomenology

"道"是中国思想文化核心范畴之一。从古至今对《老子》的"道"的解读却有些粗略,没有真正指向"道"的本义。《老子》的"道"不是具有"生产"功能的实体,不是规律法则,不是辩证哲学观念,不是退隐生活情态,它不是"什么"。《老子》的"道"指向的是万事万物成为万事万物的"成为",是万事万物如何不被扭曲、遮蔽、掩盖,而如其本身一样地成为自身的"如何"。

＂Tao＂ in Lao Tse is one of the main categories of Chinese thought culture. Since the ancient times, interpretations about it are far from detailed and are not about its original meaning. ＂Tao＂ in Lao Tse is neither substance which is able to ＂produce＂, nor a law or a dialectic philosophical concept or reclusive lifestyle. It is not ＂What＂. ＂Tao＂ in Lao Tse is that everything becomes everything itself and exists as it is without being distorted, sheltered or concealed. It is the＂How＂.
