What are the contemporary values of modernization of Taoist thought?

The epochal value of modernization of Daoism thought:

I. Taoism thought can guide us to adjust the relationship between man and nature in the modernized society, so as to make it remain coordinated and harmonious.

Modernized society due to the high degree of industrial development, the rapid progress of science and technology, so that people have mastered the powerful conquest of nature, access to great wealth, on the other hand, the natural world has brought about a great destructive effect, disrupting the harmony of nature, disrupting the balance of ecology, and causing great disasters to human beings themselves, human beings are destroying themselves.

Second, Taoist thought can guide modern people to realize self-psychological adjustment in order to promote the development of modern people's mental health.

The mental health of modern people is an important issue in the construction of modern civilization. The modernized industrial society, the rapid updating of new technologies, the surge of information, the fast pace, the high speed, the pollution of the environment, the intensification of competition, bankruptcy and unemployment, make people in a high degree of mental tension and fatigue all day long, which will destroy a person's psychological balance and cause psychological disorders, thus creating a modernized industrial disease in the society generally.

The Taoist culture

The Taoists advocate "preservation of the body", but this concept also does not include the pursuit of longevity. The first is that the world is not yet ready to be governed by the world, but the second is that the son of Zi Huazi, with his two arms weighing more than the world, advised the Marquis of Zhao Xi not to fight for the neighboring countries, etc. This is the reason why there are Taoist people who are different from the common people, and the reason why there are Taoist people who are different from the common people, too.

If you refer to the "Han Fei Zi" - the "Hinshu" in the "body" and "life" of the discussion, it is clearer to see the difference between these two concepts: today or said: so that the son must be wise and life, then the world will be thought of as a madman. Husband wisdom, sex also; life, life also. Life, not learned from people also. And the people can not say people, this world is the reason why it is called crazy.

When talking about the idea of "preserving one's body", it is important to take into account the influence of the Yang-Zhu school, that is, whether it is the "preservation of one's body" of the Taoists or the "honoring of one's body" of the Yang-Zhu school, it was originally an elaboration of the value of life. That is, both the Taoist "preservation of the body" and Yang Zhu's "valuing the body" were originally interpretations of the values of life. As to how Yang Zhu and Taoist scholars transformed this value of the body and the world into a theory of health care with a clear mind and a long life, it will be discussed later.
