论“孔颜之乐”中孔子与颜回为何而乐

Discuss Why Confucius and Yan Hui Are Happy in “The Joy of Confucius”

关于“孔颜之乐”中孔子与颜回到底为何而乐,有人认为他们是因“求道”而乐,也有人认为他们是因“无所求”而乐。随着身体美学的发展,在对这几种观点进行总结论述的基础上,今天可以从身体美学的角度对他们为何而乐提出新看法。身体本身就具有最自然的、欲望的话语,人本能的会产生七情六欲,所以身体有天然的对“乐”的欲望,这种欲望指明个体追求和感受快乐的方向和范围。所以谈论孔子与颜回之乐,在考虑精神、境界之外还必须重视他们身体感受。

As to why Confucius and Yan Hui are happy in “The Joy of Confucius”, some people think that they are happy because they “seek the Tao”, and some people think that they are happy because they “seek nothing”. With the development of somaesthetics, on the basis of summarizing and expounding these viewpoints, today we can put forward a new view on why they are happy from the perspective of somaesthetics. The body itself has the most natural and desire words, and people instinctively have emotions and desires, so the body has a natural desire for “happiness”, and this desire indicates the direction and scope of the individual’s pursuit and feeling of happiness. Therefore, when talking about the joy of Confucius and Yan Hui, in addition to considering the spirit and realm, we must also pay attention to their physical feelings.
