大道·自然·超自然——老庄思想同源异趣略论

Doing Nothing,Natunal,Supernatural

道家文化以老子为源头,由庄子光大,老庄思想既同源又异趣。其同源在于二者都以大道无为为本源;其异趣在于老子思想以无为政治为指归,以自然理想为最高境界;庄子思想则以人生为指归,以超自然理想为最高境界。但二者无论是同源还是异趣,均共同有效地构成了中国传统道家文化的主体,对我国的社会历史发展产生了深远的影响。

LAO culture started from LAO ZI and was developed by ZHUANG LI. LAO' s and ZHUANG's theories came from the same source and differed from each other: they both had 'doing moth ing'as source; while LAO's thinking had ' doing nothing polities' as aims and natural ideals as ideal realm, ZHUANG's thinking had life as aims and supernatural ideals as ideal realm. But both the likeness and differences effectively constituted the main body of the Chinese traditional culture and had greatly influenced the social and historical development of our country.
