中国武术是一门“向善”的学问

Chinese Wushu is the Learning of “Doing Good Turns”

真善美是人类社会的共同追求。在以"善"引领"真"和"美"的中国传统文化中"善"成为最重要的特质和核心价值。通过文献资料法、逻辑分析法,以"真善美"的视角对中国武术进行解读,得出中国武术形成发展的历程既是一路向善的历程,中国武术就是不断扬善,不断向善的文化系统。在"善"的引领下,求真的武术技术出现对技击的超越,作为工具理性的武术技术变得明晰;道德的介入使由"打"而来的中国武术形成"不打"的道德要求;高尚的道德品质和高超的技艺使武术得以自由的发展,武术之美因技术与道德的整合而成为向善的学问。

Truth, goodness and beauty are the common pursuit of human society. In traditional Chinese culture that leads 'truth' and 'beauty' with 'goodness', 'goodness' has become the most important special characteristics and core value. Through literature and data method and logical analysis method, this paper interprets Chinese wushu(martial arts) from the perspective of 'truth', 'goodness' and 'beauty'. It is concluded that the course of Chinese wushu's formation and development is the course of doing good turns all the way, and that Chinese wushu is a cultural system that embraces the good and does good turns constantly. Under the leadership of 'goodness', those wushu skills that seek truth have overstepped the art of attack and defence. And, rational wushu skills have become clear as tools. The intervention of morality forms Chinese wushu, which came from 'fighting', into the moral requirement of 'no fighting'. Lofty moral traits and superb martial skills advance wushu to develop freely. The beauty of wushu becomes the learning of 'doing good turns' due to the integration of skills and morality.
