Introduction: Huang's philosophy is undoubtedly a part of China's modern philosophy, while the internal basis of Dunhuang studies belongs to the category of internal reflection and ideological impulse. The following is my talk about the spiritual essence of Dunhuang philosophy. Welcome to read!
Abstract: From the perspective of modern civilization, the essence of Dunhuang philosophy is the summary of modern humanistic spiritual resources. Similarly, it is the focus of modern civilization. Inner pursuit? The role of. The spiritual transformation of Dunhuang philosophy has become the philosophical framework for the construction of modern civilization, which not only gives the spiritual value of Dunhuang philosophy a theoretical outlet with modern spirit and vitality, but also finds a profound and mellow humanistic spirit concept and philosophical connotation for the construction of modern culture, and finally gives the inner ultimate care in the process of cultural construction.
Keywords: China's philosophy; Dunhuang philosophy; spiritual essence
At present, people's spiritual speculation on Dunhuang philosophy is similar to the whole philosophy of China. Among them, some people questioned that China had no real philosophy after all, but put the latter's doubts on the level of Dunhuang philosophy, and the reasons why ordinary people tend to remain serious and not fake are whether Dunhuang has a philosophy, whether Dunhuang philosophy has a philosophical category and so on. However, as long as philosophical? Polysemy? A truth like Dunhuang philosophy is much simpler and clearer to discuss after understanding it.
1. The origin of Dunhuang philosophy
1. 1 Reflections on Dunhuang Philosophy
Both the birth of speculative philosophy and the formation of materialist philosophy, scientific philosophy and national philosophy are different existential thinking. Because of their different philosophical ideas and philosophical representative paradigms, their philosophical spirit in the construction stage is bound to be different. Therefore, the diversity and difference of modern people's understanding of Dunhuang philosophy is inevitable in some aspects, so the understanding of Dunhuang philosophy as a discipline concept will never be consistent. On the one hand, Dunhuang philosophy can exist in the field of early speculative philosophy; On the other hand, Dunhuang philosophy can also become a world philosophy.
Dunhuang philosophy is not only a deep reflection on laws and theories, but also a philosophical spirit with local knowledge system and national culture. What are the historical and cultural manifestations of the spiritual background of Dunhuang philosophy? Dunhuang literature? 、? Dunhuang murals? There are many cultural relics. Dunhuang studies mainly organize, plan, protect and study the history and culture of Dunhuang. Therefore, many modern scholars usually take Dunhuang culture and Dunhuang studies as the cornerstone, and then construct Dunhuang philosophy.
1.2 The Construction of Dunhuang Philosophy
To be sure, Dunhuang philosophy is undoubtedly a part of modern China philosophy, and there is no doubt that the spirit of Dunhuang philosophy will become one of the concrete coordinates pursued and constructed by modern China philosophy. The spiritual construction of Dunhuang philosophy independently undertakes the resource responsibility of philosophical spirit and humanistic feelings in modern China and even the world, and gradually becomes the inner pursuit that modern human civilization yearns for and the strong support of humanistic spirit temperament. The spirit of Dunhuang philosophy has become one of the main spirits of China's modern cultural construction because of its extensiveness. It not only endows Dunhuang philosophy with vitality theory, but also endows modern people with rich humanistic spirit philosophy in cultural construction. The spirit of constructing Dunhuang philosophy belongs to a philosophical dimension endowed by the fuzziness of philosophy itself, and should also belong to the approach of constructing Dunhuang philosophy.
2. The essential analysis of Dunhuang philosophy.
2. 1 research object of Dunhuang philosophy
The internal foundation of Dunhuang studies belongs to the category of internal reflection and impulse, which will inevitably form reflexive self-questioning. For example,? When was Dunhuang literature? This reason belongs to the type of reflexive self-questioning; ? What is the region where Dunhuang philosophy was formed? , this kind of problem is the problem of philosophy, relatively, speculation is philosophy [1]. Obviously, the basic idea of this philosophical construction belongs to? After physics? This mode of thinking, and the philosopher Aristotle put forward? Metaphysics? The establishment of ""has similar development situation and logical basis, and belongs to the in-depth abstract generalization and summary of knowledge and disciplines within a specific cognitive range.
2.2 the internal basis of Dunhuang philosophy
To explore the spiritual essence of Dunhuang philosophy, it is necessary to analyze and reveal the possible characteristics of Dunhuang philosophy. On his deathbed, Mr. Ji Xianlin was still persistent in completing a rich summary of Dunhuang culture, and repeatedly declared that Dunhuang culture should belong to the world. Dunhuang philosophy must be a part of China's philosophy. Any study of Dunhuang philosophy is actually a re-understanding of China's philosophy. With Mr. Ji Xianlin's ideas, the characteristics of Dunhuang philosophy will gradually deepen the further study of China's philosophy by modern people. Similarly, the overall characteristics of China's philosophy must also include the spirit of Dunhuang philosophy. There are many important value orientations in China's philosophy, such as attaching importance to ethical norms and heaven. On this basis, the ancient philosophers' explanation of the category of human filial piety and benevolence is further deduced. It can be said for sure that in the spiritual essence of Dunhuang philosophy, what is it? The value connotation of Dunhuang philosophy is fundamental and principled, and it is also the internal foundation of Dunhuang philosophy, which has the function of controlling Dunhuang studies. Of course, this is also the spiritual core of Dunhuang philosophy.
3. The spiritual core of Dunhuang philosophy
3. 1 humanistic spirit.
Dunhuang can be said to be the gathering place of all ancient civilizations, which has branded almost all forms of civilization. Whether it is China's Confucian philosophy, Greek civilization, Indian Buddhism or Islamic civilization, there are all kinds of traces in Dunhuang, and they all write poems of their own civilization. Even other ancient civilizations that have long receded or disappeared in the long river of history have left a dazzling mark in Dunhuang. The ancient civilization mentioned above is based on the Dunhuang Grottoes and the Dunhuang Tibetan Sutra Cave, and all forms of civilization and even sub-civilization can find their past footprints in Dunhuang. The contribution of the tolerance and spiritual support of Dunhuang humanistic spirit to the value of civilization is immeasurable [2]. Dunhuang is not only a simple mixture of various civilizations, but also a simple cultural distribution center. Instead, it has built a cultural form with Dunhuang characteristics, namely Dunhuang culture, which has enriched Chinese civilization to the greatest extent. Dunhuang Grottoes are the representative art form of Dunhua culture, which not only shows the pure Buddhist philosophy of life, but also shows the Confucian sages and Taoist immortals that people often say. This boundary between profane and sacred has been broken, unifying the secular side of human beings with the so-called sacred, and even the concepts of Greek civilization and Islamic civilization have been relatively reflected [3].
3.2 with a realistic spirit
The world is big, only Dunhuang can name the spiritual form with the region. When Dunhuang philosophy came into being, the main forms of the four major civilizations had already matured. The maturity of a civilization can explain the rejection of the other side, which is especially obvious in religious culture. Because there is a certain degree of absoluteness in religious belief, it also leads to a certain degree of exclusiveness in religious belief, which is the most common state in human history, especially in Europe, whose European history can also be called the history of religious wars. The spirit of seeking truth from facts in Dunhuang philosophy perfectly embraces different religions and beliefs, as well as various forms of culture and civilization. Therefore, only the spirit of seeking truth can gradually soften the tense atmosphere when civilizations are opposed. It can be said that only China and Dunhuang have reached this tension.
3.3 Have a sacred concept
A scripture can be written in many languages, and a stone tablet can be inlaid in many languages. These tolerant spiritual essence can be seen everywhere in Dunhuang. To put it another way, all kinds of civilizations can find their own context in Dunhuang, and they all grow up with fresh physique. Dunhuang is the intersection of many civilizations, and it is also the place where many civilizations complete their integration and growth. It fully shows that the concept of shrine in Dunhuang philosophy has great attachment and regeneration to many civilizations.
4. Concluding remarks
The spirit of Dunhuang philosophy is not a simple accumulation of elements, nor is it a pull or balance of forces between atomic variables, but a dynamic change, which is to learn from each other's strengths rather than a duel between ourselves and the enemy [4]. The establishment of Dunhuang philosophy is based on this decisive feature, which further inspires and deduces the concept of neutralization in China's philosophy to the extreme. Dunhuang philosophy also shows the world that although various beliefs and civilizations exist and are antagonistic, Dunhuang philosophy further reminds people that civilizations and beliefs can be * * *, can also be * * *, and can also be * * *.
