思想思想的思想——读《中国哲学简史》札记

Thought Thought of Thought ——Read the brief history of Chinese philosophy reading notes

中国的圣人是既入世又出世的,中国的哲学也是既入世又出世的。随着未来的知识和科学的进步,宗教及其教条和迷信或将让位于科学或另一种更大气的学问,而人们对超越人世的渴望则必将由未来的哲学满足。未来的哲学很可能是既入世而又出世的,中国哲学可能会对此有所贡献!

The Chinese sage is both of this world and the other world, and Chinese philosophy is both this-worldly and other-worldly. With the scientifi c advancement of the future, religion with its dogmas and superstitions will give way to science or the future knowledge; man’s craving for the world beyond, however, will be met by the philosophy of the future-a philosophy which is therefore likely to be both thisworldly and other-worldly. In this respect Chinese philosophy may have something to contribute.
