教育即人生宇宙——论宇宙观、人性观和教育观的同步变革

Education Is Life Universe:Synchronized Change of Views of Universe, Human Nature and Education

现行的教育理论没有在本质特征上把“教育”跟“宇宙”内在地相联系,这说明现行的宇宙观、人性观、教育观都是“小一号”的,存在相互隔绝的“三重门”。这是一种由于认知模式缺陷造成的“自小”和“自闭”,它不仅使我们的生命潜能受限,而且有可能造成人性和教育异化。量子理论发现了“认知范式革命”的必要性与可能性,提出了“互补”思想和“参与的宇宙”的新宇宙观要点。新的认知范式的核心是“宇宙学存在尺度”和“人类学认知尺度”的兼容与互补。这与中国传统文化恰成跨越时空、不期而遇的契合。回望中华传统文化,我们得到了概括程度更高的人生宇宙观,即“玄之又玄”和“天人合一”。当今社会,需要在宇宙观、人性观和教育观上进行同步变革。“教育即人生宇宙”,即是通过自觉实践活动使教育统一于人生宇宙整全性的内在合题。

Current educational theories fail to inherently link education with universe in terms of essential characteristics, which shows that current views of universe, human nature, and education are all at a “lower level” and isolated from each other by “triple doors”. It is a kind of “smallness” and “narrowness” caused by defective cognition, which limits our life and causes alienation of human nature and education. Quantum theory discovers the necessity and possibility of “cognitive paradigm revolution” and proposes new view of universe that contains the thoughts of “complementation” and “participative universe”. The core of new paradigm is the compatibility and complementarity between “cosmological scale of existence” and “anthropological scale of cognition”. This coincides with traditional Chinese culture which gives us more generalized view of life and universe. In modern society, it is necessary to make synchronized change of views of universe, human nature and education. “Education is life universe” is the inner synthesis of uniting education in the integrity of life universe through practice.
