How docking between modern life and traditional civilization, is the world facing a common test on the road to modernization. In today's China's modernization process, the conflicts of the modern and the traditional, fit, inspire each other, it is a topic worth exploring.
We are living in the 21st century is the era of China's sustained economic development, social outlook continues to progress, persist in reform and opening wider to the outside world, the degree of integration with the world deepened period. Modern process under globalization changing the way we inevitably bring material life significantly change also affects the spiritual world, and even bring varying degrees of mental alienation. Many people feel that way - in a fast-paced, high-speed operation, but gradually there would be less excitement and commitment; participate in the life of the temptation, experience, the inner hard to tranquility and music.
Modern disease of material to maximize the never-ending pursuit of the fans heart by-substance "is fast approaching us. More and more impatient, less and less the faith; pursuing the interests of more and more food for thought less and less value. Should see the progress of the times is maintained and driven by human development, human development depends on a healthy spirit and mind. If a person can not remain rational in the era before the development, to enhance the self, but is not anybody coerced, disoriented to "go with the flow", it is easy to lost self, I do not know, let alone support from a harmonious development of society.
How to cure many mental "disease"? Chinese traditional culture has inexhaustible, think of an inexhaustible source of ideas and spiritual power, although not an effective panacea, but carefully thought of, perhaps the "disease" subject to regulation and comfort, can help us to sweep aside the "fog" of the mind, no longer blind pursuit of material desires bitter.
Firmly optimistic about life: their own attitudes and values
"Attitude is everything", may at first sound a bit biased, and pondering yet profound.
We are talking about the attitude of the heart, and not contrary to the heart, a deliberate gesture. Has its own attitude, this is a simple request, but also a extremely difficult to adhere to. Society a person's attitude, attitude toward life, realistic attitude toward work on the attitudes of others, and even his own attitude, refraction overall quality of a mirror, but also the values of the most direct and objective external manifestation.
Modern life colorful, but also complex. A person is not stable, the depths of his heart, after the inspection of the vicissitudes of life, be able to balance the physical and mental attitude to life as a guide, then, is likely to feel everywhere in working life is not compatible, there is a conflict, and thus bring about a series - may have a strong anti-social emotions and impulses, may fall into the depressed inner tangled, twisted mind may, interpersonal communication planted a "time bomb" ... All these cause a burden and distress of mind. Once you have a firm, clear, progressive, optimistic attitude towards life, although the twists and turns of life is inevitable, but we can with a high degree of adaptability and the influence of the external environment to actively respond to and be able to find their own long-lasting and powerful spiritual support, so as to continuously enhance and change.
Inner attitude can not be disguised, it is manifested by conduct, is bound to accept the life tempered and inspection. For example, in today's society, in the face of intertwined interests, the concept of conflict, standard and diverse hot issues, managers dare to face, whether to take a non-evasive, do not flinch, do not shirk, positive response to the attitudes and actions of the full communication, is their sense of responsibility and credibility of the inspection.
To develop a correct and stable manner, indispensable from the ancients there to absorb nutrients. Such sage words of Kam sentence, a few - days Gentleman to self-improvement. Terrain-kun, the gentleman to Virtuous "(" Book of Changes ")," know male, keep the female "(" I ") , "not blaming Heaven, do not blame the people" ("The Analects of Confucius constitutional question"), "the best, and destiny" ("Mean"), "Hardships for the worst" ("Mencius"), "The people who win are strong, strong from the winner. contentment is rich, force those who wish" ("I"), the first to show concern and worry, after the world music "(" Yueyang Lou Ji "), are full of meaning, and inspire people to change attitudes, culture attitude, practice attitude. The attitude of the spirit of the core values. The establishment of the inner attitude, is the establishment of values. Established values, be possible to identify their goals and aspirations in numerous World phase eliminate interference, resist the temptation to move towards self-development and self-realization. Few people today meditation, impetuous, its root, it is never to establish a stable and correct values. They do not realize a simple truth: firm and optimistic life, their own attitudes, values worth sticking this life, regardless of what the outcome is already a success.
Details determine success or failure: "measured, appropriate trade-offs"
Details determine the success or failure of this formulation become very popular in recent years, with a strong sense of color. In the era of market economy, the competition seems to be everywhere, growing, making life more complicated, made the spirit of the thing costs and material costs have become higher and higher, to win the success factors of the processes involved in even more difficult to forecasts. Therefore, seize the good in all aspects and variables has become an important issue.
Emphasizing the details, a test of the intentions and ability of people in the decision-making process, operating procedures, and enforcement procedures. Concerned about the things composition and details of the changes, not just the attention to detail, but the details should be placed in a general and global perspective to go look. Not fully grasp the overall global and too much attention to detail, it may not catch determining the success or failure of the most critical details, but into a bunch of trivial matters, penny wise and pound foolish. Former U.S. President Richard Nixon in a book of the "leaders" commented Premier Zhou Enlai: "this week with the subtlety of, much higher than other world leaders I know, which is uniquely Chinese characteristics. is caused due to the development of Chinese civilization for centuries and refining. "week, great attention to the section of the accumulation of the motto almost does have some truth, however, even though he personally care every tree, they can always see the forest. "These statements are fully appreciated the art of leadership of Premier Zhou Enlai. Seen from a large number of details accurately identify those who most need to focus on the key factors, but also a very important capability.
The ancients have long realized the importance of details. "A little knowledge is because of an ant hole collapse; hundred feet of the room, a sudden gap smoke burning" ("Han Fei Yu old"), "world is difficult, will do the easier ones; world affairs, will do fine" ( "I"), the "best small, Shenwei" ("Mirror"), "To the majority do subtle" ("Book of Changes"), the old saying today have become full of practical significance police language.
In the ancient Chinese, the "degree" is a vital detail. Confucianism as a "golden mean" of "Life's Road", the core meaning is to be able to accurately and objectively understand things, to leave room for changes in the evolution of things, and take measured, trade-offs and affordable measures and methods to promote the transformation and development of things, makes this development more in line with the objectives pursued.
"Doctrine of the Mean, few people to whom." Do middle course is very difficult, because it is a high awareness of standards and methodology standards; However, we can still find a lot of really good grasp of the key details of the "degree". On them, epitomizes the blend of ancient wisdom and modern thinking, and also gives us a fresh revelation.
Innovative thinking: insight into the "change of wisdom"
Wisdom to change the world. This world, refers both to people facing the a spectacular objective world, but also refers to the subjective world of ideology. Wisdom everywhere, everywhere, and its mode of action is ever-changing, but eventually led to the change of an object should be benign, positive, regardless of the external form or intrinsic nature.
Worried that people today "modern disease", to a large extent due to the subjective and the objective world can not be harmony and unity, resulting in the pain of the split. Really have great wisdom, can seemingly opposing objective world and the subjective world into harmony and unity, complementary, rolls and orderly. Overall, the wisdom to make the original things cost very little consideration under the premise of showing a new state. This is a way of thinking and innovation, modern people should strive to master the "change of wisdom.
Innovation is in compliance with the law of things on the basis of the change. Traditional aphorisms reflect this wisdom is very rich in contents. Such as "Gou Nisshin Nichinichi, and new" ("Book of Rites University"), "Water can carry a boat, can also overturn it" ("Xunzi kingship"), extremes meet, the boom-bust "(" I "), and so on. These aphorisms are clarified to grasp the more things change, the importance of the inevitable logical and appropriate methodology. In short, the wisdom to change the world is the demand of the times, in order to make a difference in today's complex social life, comprehend the wisdom required to achieve a higher realm. Absorb nutrients from the classic, is undoubtedly an important source for modern people to enhance their own wisdom. |
