The so-called family culture is just all aspects of a nation's life. To sum up, there are three aspects: First, spiritual life, such as religion, Zheng Xue, science, art and so on. Religious literature and art tend to be perceptual, while philosophy and science tend to be rational. Second, in social life, the lifestyles of people around us-family, friends, society, country and the world-belong to one aspect of social life, such as social organization, ethical habits, political system and economic relations. Third, in terms of material life, such as eating, drinking, living and enjoying, human beings seek survival in nature.
Life is an endless will-this so-called "will" is slightly similar to Schopenhauer's so-called "will"-and the constant satisfaction and dissatisfaction. Children are a nation and a life. Why did his lifestyle become two different colors? However, it was his original intention to separate two different directions for lifestyle, so he played two different roles. However, if you want to seek the root or source of a culture, you only need to look at the intention of the root of this culture and how the direction of this family is different from that of his family. You have to find out what's different in this direction. You only need the unique color he knows to push his original starting point, which is not difficult to see at a glance.
Thought is a further step of knowledge, and it holds the same attitude towards the known size of the universe or life. There is nothing without attitude in mind, which is centered on attitude. Attitude is emotion and will.
The so-called religion can be said that the mind has a special attitude. What attitude? Belief beyond the real world. Thought without belief attitude can't count, nor can faith without transcending the real world. Religion is like this.
The so-called philosophy can be said to be the starting point and end point of thought.
The second part is the scientific spirit of the author's answer to the westernization question (1).
How to be westernized? Westernization requires it to have the fundamental spirit of moving forward. In other words, Westernization is two different cultures, "sainz" and "democracy", both of which are produced by the spirit of forward demand.
A nation's culture is alive, not dead. A nation's culture is not isolated, but in a general relationship. From the past to the future, the whole culture of mankind is a whole thing, and now the culture of a nation has a place in this whole culture. To understand what a certain culture is like is to understand its differences from other cultures. Before understanding a certain culture, it is necessary to understand its differences.
The scientific color of westernization means that everything has the prestige to conquer nature, including all material things. Such as iron-striking, steel-making, gunpowder-making, carpentry, building houses and other production projects, we rely entirely on the "skills" taught by craftsmen in the East. In the west, everything should be based on science-many fragmentary experiences and incomplete knowledge should be managed as knowledge in one way, and discussed forward, completely divorced from the "craftsman spirit", and everything should be handled and solved by science, not the "craftsman spirit". This is true of industry, and so is agriculture. This kind of knowledge that must be understood objectively is the scientific spirit; Completely ignoring the objective laws of quasi-procedure, it is artistic spirit that advocates genius.
About in the west, art is also scientific; In the east, science is also art.
Personal opinion: Leonardo da Vinci's paintings, many compositions that people appreciate today, and the "Nine-headed Beauty" are almost completely in line with the golden ratio principle, just in line with "art is also a science in the West".
The principle of seeking public rules scientifically needs everyone to verify; Therefore, both predecessors and present people have it, and the most valuable thing is new inventions, and step by step, of course, today is better than the past. Art cares about genius and ingenuity, which is unique to individuals. The achievements of our predecessors cannot be caught up with by future generations. What is expensive is the secret of our ancestors, so naturally we lament that today is not as good as the past. Since it is passed on by my younger brother, the results will be divided into different portals, and there is no need to establish a * * * identification standard in academic circles. The first step is not practical, and the second step is where to go. Besides, what this younger brother has passed down from his heart is sometimes lost. It is an inevitable fact that today is not as good as the past. Western civilization is above science, while the East is only an artistic achievement.
Personal thinking: The intangible cultural heritage of China traditional culture has indeed seen the phenomenon that many factions compete for the same thing during its circulation. Perhaps the most famous is the biography of Tai Chi, and there are craft distinctions such as clay figurine Zhang, which are close to life. This phenomenon can be seen everywhere in martial arts novels. At present, the Lin family's sunflower collection, the Beggars' Eighteen Dragons, and Quanzhen Sect's martial arts methods are all getting worse from generation to generation. The achievements of the founder of the mountain are indeed "artistic achievements", which can be met but not sought.
Theory of learning and skills. When westerners embark on the road of science, everything becomes scientific. From nature to personnel, from national politics to trivial issues in society, there is a lot of specialized knowledge, which is the first thing to learn. Because he always wants to seek objectively recognized knowledge, the truth that cause and effect will come one day, and a more reliable law, and never let his cleverness and wisdom touch him when the time comes. Therefore, with scientific methods, it is also organized into learning. But in China, no matter how big or small, there is no special talk about his science. Anyone who has spent four books and five classics can do anything about financial management and justice, but just use your personal mind and skills to deal with it. Although there are many ideas about something, such as economy, in the history of books, they are all fragmented and disorganized. Moreover, most of these ideas are for application, let alone pure applied knowledge, and there is no such thing. This sentence is full of practical truth, only art, no learning. Most of China's knowledge is not academic, or academic. Although there is no need to directly say that there is no so-called learning in China, because only methods can be used to learn, although it is not limited to scientific methods and then learning methods, when it comes to methods, it is the wind of science rather than the taste of art. Since the West has inherited the spirit of science, it has certainly produced countless endless knowledge. Of course, it is impossible for China to produce similar knowledge because of his artistic spirit. As a result, of course, learning will not exist and skills will not develop, because skills are produced from learning.
Metaphysics and science. Metaphysics always does not change its view of the status quo, but reads it all at once and with that thing; Science is always changing its view of the status quo, trying to look at and analyze it from another angle, not treating that thing as that thing, but treating other things as his view. For example, in Chinese medicine, don't ask for lesions just because you think the whole person is sick. Western medicine must ask for the focus, because he thinks that an organ or a part of this person is sick. What is said by seeking knowledge by metaphysical methods cannot be treated equally with what is said by seeking knowledge by scientific methods.
Scientific methods acquire knowledge, while metaphysical methods naturally cannot acquire knowledge. It's just a subjective opinion at best. In China, everyone should talk about magic when lecturing and reasoning, and only those who are not theoretical can keep secrets. If we look at it from the west, it is lack of logic, not lack of logic, but the "illogical spirit" is too developed. Irrational spirit is metaphysical spirit, and theorists are scientific achievements. However, their fundamental differences are not only manifested in rambling, association and reasoning. You should know the $ term in his speech. His ideas and concepts are completely different from those in the west. What it refers to is not complex and concrete, but a phenomenon with some meaning, which cannot be defined. For example, he said that the disease lies in phlegm, but it is not really phlegm, but has different meanings. Do you think he turned a fixed concrete concept into such a fluid abstraction, and it can be said that he was only out of his thoughts rather than out of a special spirit? Science talks about many fixed phenomena, while metaphysics talks about a changeable ontology. It is a metaphysical attitude for China people to point to something that is not certain, while it is a scientific method for westerners to point to something that is definite.
