老莊哲學的自然觀對生命教育研究的意義

The Signification of Nature of Lao-Zhuang's Philosophy to study of Life Education

由於教育部門提倡生命教育的觀念，遂使該觀念在學界的研究中形成多元的論述，並且使生命教育的發展表現為開放系統，而有多元闡釋的空間。分析生命教育的結構及其發展論述，生命哲學的問題意識實是生命教育的研究意義所在，而從詮釋的角度，老莊哲學作為論述生命實踐的學問，即能回應生命教育的問題意識。是以本文乃分別說明老子與莊子哲學的自然觀，指出老子創造自然一詞，意在賦予道的本性，並以此作為價值實踐的原理。而莊子哲學則強調自然之內在性，並從精神層面反映實踐自然的價值意義。本文認為，從價值原理與內在精神，老子與莊子的自然觀念可豐富生命教育的內涵及其實踐。

Because of educational department advocating life education, academia work for diversified research of life education, and making the development of life educatio nform the open system. According to the basic issues of life education, life philosophy is philosophical problem of life education, the same which Lao-Zhuang's Philosophy is. Therefore my theses focus on three aspects: (1)analyze the ‘nature’(Zi-ran 自然) of Lao-zi, which illustrating the essence of Tao. (2) The ‘nature’ is principle of practice value, and Zhuang-zi philosophy interprets it as the spirit. (3) The Nature of Lao-Zhuang's Philosophy which good to human mind enriches the study of life education.
