庄子的“自我”存在实现之路——以“吾丧我”为线索的讨论

Zhuangzi's Path to the Realization of“Self”Existence:A Topic on the Clue of“I Lose Myself”

《齐物论》“吾丧我”是理解庄子“自我”观念的枢纽,也是通向“自我”存在实现的路径。在庄子这里,身心一体性是人之原初存在状态,但人在其现实存在里却为物所役、逐物而驰,表现为身心两离、物我对待的状态。“吾丧我”即是要通过“丧”与“忘”的工夫历程,超越这种对待关系中的“我”,重新彰显人的本然之性,回归身心一体的“自我”,获得存在之实现。庄子用“天籁”的隐喻表达“自我”存在实现的境界:人应以“天”或“道”为其内在主宰与内在规定,依据本然之性而存在,如此才能与物无际,“同于大通”。

“I lose myself”is the pivot to understand Zhuangzi's concept of“self”and the path to the realization of“self”existence.In Zhuangzi's view,the original state of human being is the unity of body and mind.But the real existence of human being is manifested as the state of separation of body and mind and self-treatment of things because of pursuing things.“I lose myself”means to transcend the relationship of mutual treatment through the process of“losing”and“forgetting”,which will re-manifest the nature of human being and return to the state of the unity of body and mind and achieve the realization of existence.Zhuangzi used the metaphor of“Sound of nature”to express the realm of existence realization of“self”:people should take“heaven”or“Tao”as their inner domination and inner regulation,so that they can exist according to the nature and be boundless.
