进入21世纪,由于科技的进步,物质力量的强大,人类在享受其带来舒适、便利的同时,也带来了一系列严重的问题:生存的压力、精神的颓废、信仰的危机,以及环境污染、恐怖袭击,地区冲突不断等,而所有这些问题皆源自价值观和文化的不同和冲突。美国哈佛大学教授亨廷顿指出,“新世界的冲突根源,将不再侧重于意识形态或经济,文化将是截然分隔人类和引起冲突的主要根源”。[1]因此,“文明的冲突将左右全球政治,文明之间的断层线将成为未来的战斗线”。[2]人类技术和物质力量发展到今天,从一定意义上讲,已成为反对人类自身的力量,使自己产生了异化。21世纪的人类急需一种平和包容的哲学思想和价值观来解决自己的问题,否则人类极易走向自我的毁灭。笔者认为,中国以儒家和谐思想为核心的传统哲学思想,正是解决当下我们面临问题的可借鉴的价值观,21世纪的人类,应该在重温中国古老哲学中,再回到“和而不同”行“仁”的儒家思想以及道家的“师法自然、天人合一”的思想中去,才能达成人与人的和谐,才能达成人与自然的和解。中国传统的哲学思想是解决21世纪人类生存危机的一剂良药,是化解人类焦虑和人与自然矛盾的人生指引。
In the 21st century, due to the progress of science and technology and the material power, human beings enjoy a series of serious problems while enjoying their comfort and convenience: the pressure of survival, the decadent spirit, the crisis of faith, and the environment Pollution, terrorist attacks and constant conflicts in the region, all of which are rooted in differences and conflicts in values and cultures. Huntington, a professor at Harvard University in the United States, pointed out: “The root causes of the conflict in the New World will no longer focus on ideology or the economy. Culture will be the main source of human separation and conflict.” Therefore, “the clash of civilizations will affect the global political and civilized line of fault will be the battle line for the future.” [2] As human technology and material forces have developed to this day, in a certain sense, they have become opposed to the forces of mankind themselves and have alienated themselves. The 21st century human beings urgently need a peaceful and inclusive philosophy and values to solve their own problems, or else human beings can easily move towards the destruction of their own. The author believes that China’s traditional philosophy with Confucianism as its core idea precisely addresses the values we can learn from the problems we face now. In the 21st century, human beings should return to the old paradigms in their review of ancient Chinese philosophy “Confucianism” and “benevolence” as well as Taoist ideas of “learning from nature and from man and nature” can we achieve harmony between people and achieve reconciliation between man and nature. The traditional Chinese philosophical thought is a good medicine for resolving the crisis of human existence in the 21st century and a life guideline for resolving human anxiety and the contradictions between man and nature.
