Summary
The title of my study is “The dialogue between the environmental philosophy of Zhuangzi and the deep ecology from Arne Naess's view”, so it covers three concepts, “the environmental philosophy of Zhuangzi”, “the deep ecology from Arne Naess's view”, and “the dialogue” between them. From the discussion of the first two finds the bridge of the dialogue between their environmental philosophy.
Key Words: Zhuangzi, environmental philosophy, deep ecology, Arne Naess
Introduction
The main body of my study begins at chapter two “the environmental philosophy of Zhuangzi”. I summarize and analyze the Zhuangzi’s cognitionof nature from his natural concept and equality concept. I explain the environmental philosophy of Zhuangzi is “Qihualiuxing”(氣化流行) from the “nature” meanings of Zhuangzi’s text . From the discussion of “Making All Things Equal”(齊物論) and “Autumn Water”(秋水) finds the real meaning of “Equal” of the Zhuangzi’s text. From the point of view of the Way knows “All together , what a long , whichever is shorter”(萬物一齊,孰短孰長), and furthermore knows “Heaven and Earth and I are interdependent, and the ten thousand things are one with me”(天地與我並生,萬物與我為一).
Chapter three, “the deep ecology from Arne Naess's view”, open with a critical reexamination of the western world views which is an anthropocentrism that causes man’s domination over and alienation from nature. The background of the deep ecology combines the religion and the philosophy of the East world and the western world. I select three foundations of the deep ecology, “Spinoza”, “Gandhi”, “Gestalt”. Arne Naess construct his theory named “Ecosophy T” that consists of Self-Realization and Biocentric Equality from three of them. Its details contain eight principles named “Eight points of the platform”.
In my opinion, I think the natural views from Zhuangzi and Arne Naess can dialogue with each other at three concepts, “Gestalt Ontology and Qi”, “Biocentric Equality and Making All Things Equal ”, “Self-Realization and Let Beings Be”.Zhuangzi think the existence of the root of object things construct the Qi. Arne Naess think the existence of the rootof object things construct the Gestalt. Therefore, Gestalt and Qi have same concern about the existence of the root. Arne Naess emphasize integration in Gestalt Ontology, so it’s natural to say “Self-realization” and “Biocentric Equality”. Similarly, in the world of Qihualiuxing, its natural emphasize “Making All Things Equal” and “Let Beings Be”.“Biocentric Equality” and “Making All Things Equal” reveal the sympathy for natural object things, two of them can think outside of the box to respect the existence of different forms of life in this world. Finally, the fulfillment of the philosophy of Zhuangzi and Arne Naess is “Self-Realization” and” Let Beings Be” that reveal the natural interaction. Theperfect display of “Self-Realization” and “Let Beings Be” is all the life can prosperous development.
Conclusion
This section can conclude the environmental philosophy from Zhuangzi and Arne Naess can dialogue with each other at three concepts, “Gestalt Ontology and Qi”, “Biocentric Equality and Making All Things Equal ”, “Self-Realization and Let Beings Be”.
