What is the way of thinking and behavior of ancient philosophers in China?

1, strong curiosity and thirst for knowledge make philosophers good at reflection, and they will think about what they are interested in. Why? How's it going? "I don't think the established concept is taken for granted, so it gives people a feeling of being refined.

2. The strong desire to know the world makes philosophers try to turn this reflection into a systematic theory, so as to explain everything brilliantly and give people a deep feeling.

3. It is a long and painful process for sporadic reflection to rise to the thinking and verification of system theory. It is bound by its own intelligence and physical strength, living conditions, common sense of life, social consciousness and even physical and mental persecution. If you can endure these pains and stick to your own ideas, you must be persistent and even crazy.

Bottom line: A true philosopher is a prodigal son with wild thoughts. When he looks back, he will never change his body.

In particular, clarify the concept:

What I said above is a pure philosopher (represented by symbol A), but usually we call accomplished philosophers philosophers philosophers (represented by symbol B). In fact, philosophers who have conducted profound theoretical research are also ordinary people in their lives, and their mode of thinking is not fundamentally different from that of ordinary people.

Philosopher (a) is not so abstruse, so different. They just try their best to do what they are interested in. We don't need to capture their quirks as conversation material, because it's just an obsession, just like returning to reality from online games. It is only because they have gone too far in thinking that their theories are impressively presented to the world. People can't understand them at once, leaving only consternation. Just like marveling at the success of others at the foot of Mount Everest, what we want is not to marvel, but to pursue the thinking process of philosophers. If you try to make this journey, you will gradually find that their footprints are clear and powerful, but the road to Rome was not completed in a day, and wisdom is passed down from generation to generation like a baton. You will also be surprised to find that their thinking mode is actually the same as yours.

I am a philosophy major, and I feel the above words. I wonder if I can answer your question. If you have any ideas, please feel free to discuss them.
