So I said that the temple opened in the summer: the degree of religious and philosophical contribution determines the height of education and scientific innovation

What is the basis of the basic disciplines that promote the ultimate progress of society? That must be philosophy. There is no original philosophy that is the genes and blood of a nation's development.

There are two views on Chinese philosophy that I explicitly oppose.

The first is the ultimate respect for China's philosophical system. I am definitely against this. Because compared with Western philosophers, our philosophical system, our philosophical ideas, is not complete and complete in terms of originality and speculation. To a certain extent, our philosophical system has become ideological, and has become a controversy of ideas with their own opinions.

I am also completely opposed to the second view. It is a blind denial of Chinese philosophy. Only the West. Take the denial of China by some Western philosophers as the basis.

In this case, I would like to mention. China has philosophy, but philosophy has certainly not developed and grown, and many of us have summarized this reason in particular, some of which have risen to the quality of the nation, some to the quality of the system, the quality of the Chinese people, and so on.

For the Chinese nation, such an ancient civilization. Our philosophical systems are indeed incompatible. The philosophical system is in guiding social change and promoting the development of science and technology. Its contribution is very weak. Historically, that is to say, China's scientific and technological innovation and the impetus for scientific and technological civilization are slow, and to some extent, the insufficient contribution of philosophy is responsible. The main problem comes from the lack of originality in philosophy and religion, especially in the guidance of the people's spiritual cultivation and the improvement of national literacy.

Now is not the time to give a board to anyone. It is still the time for the development of philosophy.

In my exploration for so many years, I mainly talk about one aspect of observation and experience. It is our philosophy that there is a lack of original speculation, especially the lack of follow-up to the study of a concept and proposition or philosophical word, and it falls into the superficialization, practicalization, and hijacking and exploitation of the concept of various different groups in reality. There are many people who study philosophers in China, but there is a lack of real philosophers in China.

I proposed it and said philosophy. I just want to look at the correlation between cause and effect. Conduct logical and speculative thinking before studying. Combine objective and subjective multi-angle, rather than a single opposition, let the objective and subjective be integrated, and solve the contradictions in life, rather than opposing, and constantly worrying.

Any outcome is for a reason. But the reasons are not single. Most of us understand the reason for most things from a unitary perspective. Thus the causes and effects are not analyzed in place. If we want to see a result clearly. Then you have to put more effort into discovering the cause. It is more important to see the cause clearly than to summarize the results. The reason why one thing and one mistake is repeated is that there is insufficient understanding of the causes. So you spend more energy on meetings to summarize the lessons, you still can't summarize, the real cause problem still exists. The development of a nation focuses on reflection, not on singing. Singing will deliberately find some reasons to find, but reflection can often find the real reason. (Speaking in the summer of the New Year at the Temple)
