A generation of philosophical gurus
Mou Zongsan's crowning work
Condensed masters to the world and
Life's cognition and insight
Renowned at home and abroad,
Philosophy everyone Liu Shuxian,
Recommended by Fu Weixun and others.
What do people live for?
What is the meaning of life?
Where is the direction of life?
This is a problem that everyone will face in their lifetime,
The wisdom to solve these problems is the "study of life."
Western philosophy is originally centered on knowledge, not "life-centered." Our philosophical circles in recent decades have mainly studied Western philosophy. So they paid attention only to the logical speculation of their "knowledge center", to some logical problems, scientific problems, and the metaphysical problems of external speculation, and did not pay attention to the problems of life.
- Mou Zongsan
Recently, the leading work of a generation of philosophical masters Mou Zongsan, "The Study of Life", was published by The Heaven and Earth Publishing House.
Mou Zongsan is a master of Neo-Confucianism, and this book can provide readers who are confused about life with different directions of thinking and help them realize the true value of life.
Mou Zongsan thinks about life from a philosophical point of view and explores the study of life. His articles on philosophical topics, reflections on life problems, documentaries on life moods, and reminiscences about the past fully demonstrate the true feelings of a generation of great philosophers. This book has no profound and difficult explanations, no mysterious preaching, only personal understanding and insight, to guide and answer questions for confused and helpless people; it can provide readers who are confused about life with different thinking directions, so as to help them reflect on their own lives and experience the true value of life.
Liu Shuxian commented that Mou Zongsan's position in contemporary Chinese philosophy is higher than Kant's position in Western philosophy: you can surpass him, but you cannot bypass him. Fu Weixun said: Mou Zongsan was the first person who succeeded Wang Yangming to inherit Xiong Shili's path and was sufficient to represent the true level of modern Chinese philosophy from modern times to modern times. Wu Sen was highly praised: Mou Zongsan, Tang Junyi and Fang Dongmei were "three philosophical masters who studied both Chinese and Western studies", "with their wisdom, skill, and achievements in Chinese and Western philosophy, they are enough to keep pace with the world's first-class philosophical scholars."
