老庄思想与禅宗

Zen and Lao-Zhuang

由研究王学、理学与禅学再到老庄 ,可以发现 :老庄思想与玄学迥异 ,与理学、禅学相通。因此 ,作者认为玄学家对老庄的认识有其局限性。欲知老庄之道之底蕴 ,必先了解老庄的思想方法。根据禅宗的功夫和本体 ,即可认识到老庄之道的奥秘。故欲真解老庄 ,须从禅宗入手。由禅宗之功夫与本体 ,即可判知禅宗与老庄思想有紧密关联。

From researching Wang Studies, Neo Confucianism and Zen, then to research Lao Zhuang, the author has an important discovery: Lao Zhuang was different from Neo Taoism ,but identical with Neo Confucianism.So we must comprehend the cultivation achievements of Lao Zhuang before we can understand the Tao of Lao Zhuang .We can expose the mystery of the Tao of Lao Zhuang by the cultivation and the ideal state of Zen. Understanding Zen is the only shortcut to research Lao Zhuang. Then we can know that Zen is closely connected with Lao Zhuang.
