There is such a wise man who does not pin his hopes on the building blocks of concepts, nor does he pin his hopes on the lofty palace of the construction system. On the contrary, he put all his opinions on life problems directly from the heart and appealed to the readers' real feelings. The charm of his words can make people who have read it indulge in it, which in turn leads to deep thinking.
His name is Zhou. He was born in Shanghai. After graduating from the philosophy department of Peking University, he was assigned to live in the deep mountains and forests of Guangxi for more than ten years. After the Cultural Revolution, I returned to Beijing and studied tirelessly at the Institute of Philosophy of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. He received a master's degree and a doctor's degree successively. Every one of his works can have great repercussions outside the academic field, including Man and Eternity, I Live Today and Nietzsche. At the turn of the century, Niu Niu-a father's notes and so on.
Man and Eternity is Zhou's essay. The value of "Essay" lies in truth, meticulous and vivid words. In this sense, Zhou's Suilu lacks a strong sense of carving and sophistication, and presents a simple, sophisticated, simple and vivid beauty everywhere.
1987 After the publication of Man and Eternity, it was printed first and then the second edition. It still sells well for a long time and has a lasting and profound influence on young students and intellectuals.
This book is full of serious thinking about major issues in life and close attention to the spiritual life of modern people. More importantly, it preaches many truths about how to be a man.
"Man is the biggest mystery. In people's minds, eternity is the biggest mystery. Between the two poles, there are endless mysteries of life. Life and death, love and loneliness, truth and beauty, philosophy and art, writing, genius and seven lonely days are all forms and experiences of communication between man and eternity. "
Whether it is form or experience. Zhou will tell you something from heart to heart, and then let you consciously improve something.
Why don't we listen to the voice of the wisdom heart?
Why don't we have a true friend when we are alone?
Why don't we ask a wise man to be around us often when dealing with people?
abstract
Different from many philosophers of his time, Zhou combined philosophy with literature and rationality with sensibility. His works get rid of the dilemma of academic school in form. Although simple, they are extremely cordial and touching. He often said that philosophy is the core field of human spiritual life. In the deepest part of spiritual life, there is no difference between philosophy and literature. In Man and Eternity, Zhou talks about philosophy in a unique literary way, and his feelings still revolve around ancient philosophical issues, such as the meaning of life, death, sex and love, love and loneliness. Perhaps it is the same old tune, but it is these problems that have become increasingly acute because they have been forgotten by modern commercial society and become the common confusion of modern people's spiritual life.
Once this "old tune" was "replayed" by Zhou, these problems quickly gained a very wide audience.
The modern world is a commodity world. Without this world, we cannot seek personal survival and development. At the same time, we live in history and the universe, and live in our only life process. Therefore, we should not only measure our behavior by exchange value, but also have a wider and longer frame of reference. At the same time, we should stick to it and stick to those eternal values of life. But life itself is a contradiction, Zhou wrote: "Some people say that life is full of traps, jumping out of one trap and falling into another. However, in spite of this, you still want to jump, even though you know that another deeper trap is waiting for you. The most unbearable thing is to stay in the same trap. Perhaps, freedom is.
In the process of jumping. "
In the contradiction of life, how should you seek the meaning of life? Meaning is always uncertain, so meaning itself is not important. Just like the myth of Sisyphus, the ultimate goal of pushing the boulder to the top of the mountain is not important. In the process of searching, the process is better than the result.
"We read the story of the hero's treasure hunt, and what attracted us was not the treasure finally found, but the thrilling adventure situation on the way to treasure hunt. Seeking meaning is a kind of spiritual wealth. "
However, everyone is eager for results and perfection, but they can't get it. How can this pain be alleviated? Zhou replied: "This kind of pain itself is included in perfection. It is not perfect to alleviate it. "
The punch line of life is often blurted out all over the body, which makes us think deeply and gains us a lot. This wit of life gives readers new inspiration. Zhou believes that new ideas are nothing more than a new perspective on things, just an angle. "Sometimes ideas are conceived in silence, but they are induced by indifference. Sometimes thoughts are bred in indifference, but they are induced in silence. " Of course, be wary: "A lie becomes a truth if it is repeated ten times, and a truth becomes a lie if it is repeated ten times."
New ideas are produced in indifferent and silent thinking, and different angles will produce different new ideas.
On the relationship between men and women, Monday hit home his point:
"Between the sexes, only separated by a piece of paper, this paper is transparent, and on both sides of the paper, they are both inscrutable. However, this paper is broken again. Once broken, there will be no secrets between each other. "
"It is rude for you to possess a woman's body, but it is even more terrible rude for you not to possess it in the future. The former only violated her sense of shame, while the latter violated her self-esteem. "
The anatomy of happiness reveals the secret between the two poles, but in fact, the most appropriate discussion about men and women is such a famous saying: "Men conquer women by conquering the world, and women conquer the world by conquering men." The entanglement between men and women is, in the final analysis, a problem of conquest.
In addition, as a philosophical theme, "death" corresponds to "life", and the meaning of life and death is endless. In Zhou's eyes, "death" is a fact that everyone has to face:
"Everyone knows that death is inevitable. It's the visitor we informed when we were born. Now we are working hard day and night to get closer to us step by step. However, when it knocked on our door, we felt suddenly and blamed it for being the most abrupt uninvited guest. "
"The only time we have is now. With the present, we have the past and the future. "
Zhou also made a bold assumption: if everyone died once, maybe everyone would become a philosopher.
In Man and Eternity, such "big problems" as life and death, time and eternity, happiness and pain, humor, faith and art, once Zhou has "feelings", they immediately turn into a series of vivid ideological sparks, illuminating our spiritual space.

The so-called boutique means that even if there are not many articles, irrigation is not encouraged. I'd rather put all the good articles on the page than those pages full of boring hydrology. South China kapok station is the best station I have ever seen, and there are many carefully built versions that set an example for me. I think it should be like those versions. We should stand up from the beginning and turn this version into a masterpiece. Although it may scare away some people who are keen on irrigation at first, as long as it is gold, it will always shine, and finally it will definitely attract real Peking University bugs. There are not many articles, and the number of people is secondary. Good articles are the most important. People who have never been lovelorn don't understand love, and people who have never been frustrated don't understand life.
The distance between heart and heart is the closest and the farthest.
