Four views are the same to be harmonious
Xuefeng
It is often said that "three views are different, so we can't live in harmony" and "only three views are the same, so we can live in harmony". There are also those who say that "three views disagree, you can only agree", "three views disagree, you are not friends", and "communicating with people who disagree with three views is casting pearls before swine" and so on.
People refer to three views: world outlook, outlook on life and values.
I want to say that people can't live in harmony if they have different views on life.
the world outlook is people's understanding and views on the world, the outlook on life is people's understanding and views on the purpose, significance and value of life, and the values are people's understanding and judgment, affirmation and negation of the importance of things.
if two people have the same world outlook, the same outlook on life and the same values, but different views on life, what will happen?
The outlook on life is a kind of understanding and viewpoint of life and death phenomenon and time and space. If two people have different outlook on life, even if their world outlook, outlook on life and values are the same, it is difficult to get along harmoniously.
here are some examples.
Zhang San and Li Si both want to get rich, and how to get rich. From the perspective of world outlook, both of them think that the universe is for people to enjoy, so it is right to get rich. From the perspective of outlook on life, both of them think that the purpose of life is to live a happy life, so it is completely correct to get rich. As far as values are concerned, they think it is important to get money, which is a necessary condition for getting rich. Therefore, they are in harmony in world outlook, outlook on life and values, and there is no conflict and contradiction in getting along. However, there is a dispute and division on how to get rich. Zhang San thinks that as long as they can get rich, they can pay bribes, sell heroin or rob banks, but Li Si thinks that this way of getting rich is definitely not desirable, which will hurt the day.
Look, Zhang San, Li Si, who share the same world outlook, outlook on life and values, can't get along harmoniously on how to get rich, and there are divisions and disputes. What are the reasons?
The reason is that Zhang San and Li Si have different views on life. Zhang San thinks that "people die like lights go out" and living happily is king, while Li Si thinks that people will be reincarnated, and living can't harm nature, otherwise they will go to hell.
here comes the conclusion: if the three views are combined, they still can't get along harmoniously. Only when the four views are combined can they be in harmony.
