Hi,


Image
Ha...ha...well, obviously you have been to Clementi, or you live around the area? That's the view from my living room for the first few slide, if you appreciate, it can be a quite nice view from different time of the day. And some are my house photos, like these few slide are the lighting fixture at entrance, others are around Clementi. The next series of photos will be some water feature around the city, hope all will looking forward to the publish of those photos.

Thank you for visiting Embracing Life!

生命自由



Image
庄子的生命感受大体依循老子,强调人为造作之有害生命
在种种人为造作中,庄子比老子更重视意念的造作,而认为意念的造作所造成的意念的灾难,乃生命最大的忧患。
「其寐也魂交,其觉也形开,与接为构,日以心闘。缦者,窖者,密者,小恐惴惴,大恐缦缦,其发若机枯,其司是非之谓也。」




Image
(<齐物论篇>),种种心理现象造成思想现象,是是非非的认知问题原来出自人心的自我执著与陷溺,
所谓「成心」及其所引发的情感欲望,实是生命之大敌。

庄子即以此深刻的存在之悲感,向上提起,欲以和谐圆满的天道来化除种种存在物之对立与冲突:并向内深入,
欲以无限丰盈的心灵把握生命之主体,不使有限之生命为有限性所困,不使变化之生命为变化所迷。




Image
庄子所以能知命安命,而「达命之情」 (<达生篇>),以高超的理性克服生命的大限定,
因其存在感受已由存在之表象透入存在之本体,深入存在的变化性,而掌握了生命不变之精神,故能变而不变,不变而变。

变与不变之间,庄子贯以充沛的生命力,其生命之自由在此可见端倪。

Obviously you like photography. What are you trying to explain in that photo with paper lamp?

Well...


Image
Just try to bring out the beauty of the subject from different view points...like in life, we have to look at things from others perspective. In other word, try to be realistic, consider the good and bad side of issues, and take the viable solution to tackle it.

The main aim is to share some ideas of life with everyone here, instead of explaining the pictures...the real meaning behind...ha...ha...will it work? Don't know?

Be well and happy!

很好奇的到你分享的天空看一看,觉得你的想法很“玄”!对生命看得很抽象化。身为一名ARCHITECT,可能就是要建造人类的梦想生活吧。。。 :P

...yes,


Image
对了, 好奇才是自然与向上的动力.
本人还在学习, 请多多指教...生命本耒就是一体多面的道,
生命就是真善美, 有太多的光明跟黑暗, 它是相伴而耒的.
生命裡头也有很多的喜, 乐, 当然也有哀愁, 并不是一方面的.
生命是多向的, 而且它是多重样貌呈现的.
生命是非常非常须要智慧的.
所以, 要用智慧去看待这个生命.

生命的智慧╴生死不ニ的哲学

生命情理



Image
在<秋水篇>中,有四则故事直称庄子,称赞庄子卓越的人生智慧及旷达的人生态度。
一方面,庄子鄙夷世俗之名利,宁效龟之曳尾於涂中以获生命之真自由;另一方面,则欲学古之至人,「始於玄冥,反於大通。」




Image
而最动人的生命表现则在「我知之濠上也」的物我互通,同享自然生趣.
成玄英疏云:「达其理者体其情」由知性的超越至於情性的超越,进而将生命互殊之内容完全融为一体。




Image
庄子不作冷酷之分析,不作繁琐的推论,而直接以最纯真的生命机趣弥漫天地,所谓「情」、「理」,
皆是生命之情、生命之理,情理之间所存在的种种问题,可经由生命之会通予以解决。

生命艺术



Image
儒家求人心之同情共感,然大多以伦理为范畴,庄子则一举跳开人为规范,一迳发明生命之大理,发扬生命之大能。




Image
焦竑云:「庄子一书以明道也。」明道即明生命之道,而庄子所以明道心切,乃因其存在感受极其深切故。




Image
怀德海认为「理性的职能是在促进生命的艺」,
庄子的理性与其存在感受同步并进,其最终之目的在生命之发扬与超升,这也就是生命的艺术
