宗教之天与老庄之天

在中国古代哲学的研究中,学界一般认为天概念在老子和庄子的视野和言语中是单纬度的,即仅仅是自然之天。事实上,老子与庄子的天概念同时兼具宗教之天与自然之天两种内涵,既是被人们事奉的宗教之天,又是包括自然现象在内的自然之天。在老庄的哲学体系中不是矛盾的,与其最高哲学范畴“道”也是一致的。

God and the Concept of Heaven of Laozi and Zhuangzi

In the study of ancient Chinese philosophy,scholars generally believed that the concept of Heaven in the vision and speech of Laozi and Zhuangzi was a single latitude,namely just nature.Indeed,the concept of Heaven in the vision and speech of Laozi and Zhuangzi was both God and nature,which was not only sacrificed by the people,but also included natural phenomenon,which was consistent either in Lao-Zhuang's philosophy system,or in its highest philosophy category Dao.
