谭嗣同就义精神的文化解读

The Cultural Interpretation of Tan Sitong's Sacrifice Spirit

戊戌变法中的谭嗣同,本可以逃走存活,但他认为"各国变法,无不从流血而成"。为了唤醒国人,他甘愿流血牺牲,于是选择了从容就义。这种视死如归的大无畏精神,不只是体现了儒家"铁肩担道义"的君子人格,更重要的是体现了他对佛教"无我"境界的证悟。他用勘破生死、从容就义的实际行动,践行近代"人间佛教"积极入世的精神,体现了佛教智慧在近代历史转型中的积极性。

Tan Sitong,in the Reform Movement of 1898,could have left,but he believed that “reforms from all over the world,all from the blood.”In order to awaken the Chinese,he was willing to sacrifice,then chose the desth unflinchingly. The fearless spirit,not only embodied the Confucian gentleman’s personality of “iron shoulders to moral”,more important was to his buddhist enlightenment “anatta”.He broke with the exploration of life and death,chose death unflinchingly,and practiced the spirit of “humanistic Buddhism”in the modern world,so it reflected the enthusiasm of the Buddhist wisdom in the transformation of the modern history.
