對中華文化傳承與創新之體認

A Study on the Inheritance and Innovation of Chinese Culture

中華文化淵遠流傳有五千年歷史，中華文化是指在中國大陸與華人地區（如台灣及港澳）存在的文化體系。中華文化歷經時間與歷史的演變，是各區域、各民族亙古至今，長期相互交流、借鑒、融合的結果。文化是一種融合與力量，其要素包括文學、科學、哲學、政治、經濟、法律、語言、食、衣、住、行、育樂、藝術、宗教等方面的習俗、禮儀、制度與器物，包括了精神文明與物質文明。中華文化孕育了諸子百家（道家、儒家、法家、墨家、雜家、縱橫家、陰陽家、小說家、名家、農家等），但主要哲學流派為儒、道、釋，且三派間相互影響。中華文化的精髓是中國哲學，中國哲學的核心是道，道的基石是實踐親證，道是中華文化的最高追求，也是一條貫通諸子百家的主軸。
中華文化傳承與創新涉及面向極廣，作者試由文化的觀點切入，藉由諸子百家對文化的闡述、案例研究方法與步驟，由多元觀點與面向，研究中華文化的傳承與創新。研究發現在第三次工業革命、互聯網時代，中華文化吸收了科技創新的精神，歷史的發展，文化自身的繼承與發展，文化的轉型和轉變依舊是創新的持續不斷的過程；更驗證「科技催未來快來，文化求過去慢走」；在互聯網時代，中華文化的最高追求目標仍是「道」（Tao），其本質未變;且中華文化內涵已逐步融合西方科學與中國哲學，朝「創新、倍速、實踐、親證」的真善美境界發展，這是中華文化之道更深層的轉化與昇華。

The Chinese culture has existed for over five thousand years. It refers to the cultural systems of Mainland China and the other regions where the Chinese have been living together, such as Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau and so forth. The Chinese culture has been experiencing the evolution of time and history. It is a result of the long-term mutual exchanges, learning and fusion among the different regions and ethnic groups, beginning from ancient times and continuing to the modern era. The culture is a kind of intelligent power that combines many elements such as literature, science, philosophy, politics, economics, law, language, food, clothing, housing, transportation, recreation, art, religion and other aspects of customs, rituals, institutions and artifacts. In other words, it encompasses both spiritual civilization and material civilization. The Chinese culture has been cultivating and generating a lot of great philosophers and diverse philosophical schools, such as Taoism, Confucianism, Legalism, Mohist, Eclecticism, Strategists, Naturalists, Novelists, Artists, Farmers and many more. But the mainstream of philosophical schools of thought lie in Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism. The powers of their interactive influence are always tremendous and extensive. The essence of the Chinese culture is Chinese philosophy. The center of Chinese philosophy is the “Tao”. The fundation of the “Tao” is practice and verification. “Tao” is the utmost goal accomplished in the Chinese culture, and also the main binding thread that runs through hundreds of Chinese philosophers and their philosophical ideas.
In this article, the author intends to use a methodology and the procedures of case study to study the inheritance and the innovation of the Chinese Culture from multiple perspectives. When we are encountering the Third Industrial Revolution and the era of Internet, the Chinese culture has been absorbing the spirit of technological innovations, which has constructed a milestone onto the development of globalization. Throughout human history, culture inheritance and transformation have been the two major driving forces that forged the cultural innovation of a certain geographical region. With its essence unchanged, that is, reaching its highest goal of 'Tao', the contents of the Chinese culture have been merging science into philosophy and paving its way toward a development of 'innovation, great change, practice and verification.' This, without doubt, constitutes a sublime goal to pursue what truth, goodness, and beauty is all about and a deeper sublimation of the 'Tao' of the Chinese culture.
