Reflections of the unity of heaven and human and the division between subject and object

进入 2 0世纪以来 ,环境问题日益成为人类关注的中心问题。许多学者纷纷从不同角度思考环境危机产生的根源。本文认为“天人合一”和“主客二分”是东西方不同思维方式下的哲学命题 ,不能简单地把二者对立起来 ,将“主客二分”看作造成环境问题的根源 ,而把“天人合一”看作解决环境问题的根本途径。解决环境危机是人类共同的使命 ,只有通过人类认识能力的提高 ,运用实践手段 。

The environmental issues have been the main problems that humankind focuses on since the twentieth century.Many scholars reflect on the roots of the ecologic crisis from different angles.Some scholars think that the Western way of thinking of the division between subject and object is the main cause of ecologic crisis,and that the Chinese traditional idea of the unity of heaven and human is the important way through which humankind can settles the environmental issues.This article thinks that the unity of heaven and human and the division between subject and object are different philosophic propositions under the different ways of thinking between the East and the West.We shouldn’t regard the division between subject and object as the root of ecologic crisis,on the other hand,regard the unity of heaven and human as the basic way of settling the environmental issues.Settling environmental issues are human’s shared missions.Only by raising human’s cognitive ability and through practical means can we settle the environmental issues really.
