Chapter 285: Harmonious Survival

Harmony is an important mechanism for achieving spiritual salvation. The complexity of people's sensitivity to external stimuli creates the complexity of the state of mind. The diversity and effectiveness of religious existence illustrate the possibility and rationality of various ways and means to achieve spiritual salvation. The inner conflict itself is the direct cause of the mind falling into a state of restlessness, and it can even be said that the conflict of the mind is the restlessness of the mind. The existence of thoughts and thoughts in a state of conflict in the soul shows that there is a fighting nature in the process of spiritual salvation. The selection and ordering of the mental elements in a state of contradiction after decomposition can promote the mind to a state of harmony. How to achieve a harmonious state of coexistence and mutual tolerance of the repulsive spiritual factors belongs to the art of survival.

People's inner contradictions are often not in a simple state of distinction, and the choices people face are often not simple trade-offs between desirable and undesirable, and the actual choice is often applied to the selection mechanism of "the lesser of the two disadvantages and the heavier of the two advantages". While this is true for attaining inner harmony in the spirit, it is even more difficult to achieve an outward-looking state of harmony.

Harmony is the basic way to salvation and the basic form of existence to achieve peace of mind.

Harmonious survival is the ideal state of survival, the highest and best realm of survival, and the state of extreme harmony of survival. Harmony is the ingenuity of survival, the soul of survival, and the true meaning of survival. There is no distinction between high and low in a harmonious state of existence. The realization of harmony is not the harmony achieved in a single and homogeneous state, but the harmony achieved in the contradictions and antagonisms of diverse heterogeneous elements and diversity, so it is a kind of harmony that can be achieved in a higher stage of development and a state of development level.

To achieve or achieve a harmonious state of existence, one can not adopt religious or quasi-religious ways and methods, but devote oneself to achieving a harmonious state of existence through the soundness of the mind, the enhancement of mental strength, and the improvement of the mind in the actual state of existence. Therefore, it is a way and way to be based on reality, rooted in reality, and transcend reality, and it is a state of mind that can be achieved through human efforts.

Survival consciousness, as an open system, has an inherent tension. It can integrate many spiritual factors into this framework, so that people's spiritual world can be continuously enriched, and people's psychological evolution can be promoted. A harmonious state of existence is a state formed by adaptation and integration of the three elements of intellectuality, virtue and rationality. Only the diversity of mental elements can support the diversity of living conditions. Due to the diversity of living states, it is all the more important to control the process of psychological evolution and accelerate the development of evolution in the direction of healthy expectations. The three elements of knowledge, morality, and reason are equivalent to the role of genes in controlling the process of biological evolution in determining the direction of human development. Rationality produces magnificence, virtue produces personality beauty, and intellectuality is the beauty of strength. There is a relationship between the three sexes, symbiosis and mutual dependence. Only the whole of the mind with all three sexes can create the artistic conception of beauty.

The three sexes are polysemy and complex, how should they be dealt with theoretically? The basic attitude is not to return to singularity, but to base on the manifestation and realization of diversity and ambiguity. This is precisely the basis for the diversity, complexity, and openness of the mode of survival. It is impossible for a person to possess all the excellent qualities of human beings, but one should seek infinite perfection with a finite life on the path of a sound personality. The concept of the three-sex principle needs to be further deepened, refined and concretized in order to strengthen its theoretical and practical nature.

Intellectuality has three meanings: first, the personification and humanization of knowledge; the second is insight into the nature of things; The third is the foresight of the evolution process and trend of things. Intellectuality should not simply be understood as people's mastery of knowledge, or only as the personification of knowledge, but the utilization and development of knowledge resources should be transformed and upgraded to the level of utilization and development of intellectual resources. There are two types of intellectual existence: perceptual and rational. Sensibility is to recognize and grasp the superficial phenomena and superficial characteristics of things through the guò sensory organs. The soundness of the sensory organs determines the authenticity and accuracy of the perceptual sense. Deafness, dizziness, and nasal breathlessness, even if the existence of things is close at hand, it is difficult to make relevant recognition, which will reduce the sensitivity and sensitivity of the perceptual sense accordingly. Rational cognition is based on the ability to think, and it is the understanding of the nature and laws of things. It is the understanding of the directional, fundamental and overall nature of things.

What things make the most sense to people? How to effectively identify the nature of meaning, enrich the connotation of meaning, and enhance the realm of meaning? Learning and mastering knowledge is the most rewarding thing. In the field of social practice, this is a question of universal significance. The main reason why people are confused about certain things and problems and need guidance is that it is difficult to make accurate identification and correct judgments about the meaning system they are facing. Meaning is artificially given. It shows that people can artificially transform, use, and sublimate things. There are so many things that make sense to people. Here we will limit the scope of the discussion to the perspective of the times, the sense of the times. The era of knowledge economy has come, and knowledge is of great significance to people. The importance of knowledge is no longer an empty preaching, it has become a real pressure on people. What has the highest rate of discarding right now? Living and materialized knowledge has the highest rate of discardment. The characteristics of the era of knowledge economy are: (1) there are many opportunities that should not be seized; (2) In an era of change and volatility, it is necessary to strategically grasp development opportunities; (3) It does not need to go through a series of accumulations to achieve leapfrog development. Constantly learning knowledge, constantly updating knowledge, and constantly innovating knowledge has become the most meaningful thing.

What knowledge is the most effective knowledge? The era of knowledge economy. As an endogenous variable of economic process, the effectiveness of knowledge has taken on a new connotation. People need to use their limited time to learn, master and use effective knowledge. In order to push life and career to the extreme of life. Generally speaking, the knowledge that can effectively improve the competitiveness and quality of survival is the most effective knowledge, and the level of competitiveness is concentrated in the competitiveness of products and services. We can divide effective knowledge into three types:

The first is the knowledge of tools. It directly determines whether people can complete and be competent for the professional and technical tasks of the job. This kind of knowledge is updated quickly, the frequency of change is high, people learn and master this kind of knowledge with objective compulsion, it is transformed into the specific needs and pressures of the workplace, whether it can be learned and mastered The efficacy and timeliness are very obvious.

The second is value knowledge. This kind of knowledge belongs to the deep and stable knowledge, and learning and mastering this kind of knowledge can dominate people's behavior for a relatively long time. Human behavior may potentially and intrinsically need to establish a deep level of value and emotional support, and it needs to be established in the unremitting pursuit. This support needs to be embodied through tangible social organizations, tangible individuals, and other tangible social carriers. Without such support, people will always feel uneasy. Value knowledge can help people seek, choose, and establish corresponding value support and emotional support, and establish a new value experience, value conception, and value concept. According to the early French sociologist Durkheim, there is only such a social organization as the Tongguò enterprise. In modern society, the interests of the individual are harmoniously subordinated to the general interest, and a group is not only a moral authority that governs the lives of its members, but it is also a self-contained source of life, which provides warmth, enriches its members, eliminates their selfishness, and imbues them with human touch. The density of these occupational groups allows them to act as a moral regulator and fill the gaps, without which social life can feel abnormal.

The third is the knowledge of knowledge. It is the knowledge that aims and is driven by knowledge innovation, and the wisdom of how to use existing knowledge to generate new knowledge. It is a source of knowledge innovation and management innovation. This type of knowledge contributes more to human welfare and intellectual interest. The era of knowledge economy has profoundly changed people's outlook on knowledge. The test of a person's ability is no longer simply to see how much knowledge a person has acquired and mastered, but mainly to look at a person's ability to innovate knowledge. The content of innovation is very extensive, such as theoretical innovation, system innovation, scientific and technological innovation, language innovation, product innovation, and so on. How is the impetus for innovation formed? The so-called benefit-oriented and crisis-oriented theories of reform are the driving forces of innovation from the perspective of people's expectation psychology and situation. The role of interest orientation is more dependent on the level of rational development. How to promote and implement the innovation process is a highly intelligent activity, so innovation requires more complex conditions. Curiosity and a spirit of adventure are the driving forces for deeper innovation. The driving force of innovation cannot be explained purely from the perspective of interests. The activity of a social innovation activity depends on the abundance of psychological resources such as curiosity and exploration in the society. The cultivation of such psychological resources is the result of the long-term evolution and accumulation of social system and social education.

What kind of innovation activities are the most meaningful innovations? The most common and common innovative activities are in the group occasions of daily chatter, where people take pleasure in telling novel language with a certain element of wisdom and disseminating social news. It's the simplest form of innovation and doesn't make much social sense. In the era of rapid social change, the most socially significant innovation activity is the innovation of business management model. This form of innovation can fully stimulate the innovation potential of society, and entrepreneurs have begun to take innovation as an important way to succeed in business management. The innovation process of business management model includes the following elements: (1) innovation power. The inefficiency of enterprise resource allocation and the decline of competitiveness have exposed the irrationality of the old model. This creates a demand for innovation. Innovation is a deeper adaptation to the requirements of liberating people from the shackles of old models. (2) The source of the idea. Creativity basically comes from superiors, the upper echelons of the enterprise, employees, and customers, and the most important creative resources are the upper echelons of management. Only when the upper echelons change their minds and demand change can they more effectively shake the legitimacy of the old model. Denying the legitimacy of the old model. (3) Conception, formation and sublimation of innovative theoretical models. (4) Selection of innovation strategy. At the beginning of the reform, it is advisable to give priority to the adjustment of market-oriented exposed departments, and then we should start with the departments and parts with the most concentrated, most prominent, and most far-reaching impact. Adopt the graded processing technology of decomposing and simplifying complex problems, break them down individually, and control the innovation risk within a certain range. (5) Evaluate the effect of innovation practice, deepen and sublimate the innovation experience, pay attention to the dissemination and diffusion of innovation effect, and effectively transform it into goodwill.

The effectiveness of knowledge depends on the ability to effectively synthesize and flexibly use knowledge. The transformation of knowledge into competence is a crucial condition for achieving knowledge effectiveness. The advent of the era of knowledge economy has brought about a revolutionary change in people's concept of knowledge, that is, from the previous emphasis on the acquisition of knowledge to the improvement of the ability to attach importance to the use of knowledge and the ability to innovate knowledge, and the mode of knowledge development has also changed from gradual accumulation to leapfrog development, which has further caused the change of the concept of social development, and social development pays more attention to the coordination and synchronous development of subject and object.

In the development of moral character, the cultivation of a sense of credibility is the most important.

Credibility is the unity of moral and utilitarian attributes. Credibility is first of all the spiritual pursuit of the main body, which is an internal element of personality, and the expression is the trust between people. It is the basis for mutual exchange and aggregation. Reputation, in its original sense, is a good reputation, reputation, belongs to the spiritual form, and is different from physical assets, financial assets and other economic assets. The utilitarian attribute of credibility is the product of certain socio-economic and cultural conditions, and has its external basis for formation. In the history of our country, Confucian ethics is people-oriented, adopts the form of social organization based on human ethics, the value orientation of emphasizing righteousness over profit, the exchange concept of humanism, and the concept of wealth that attaches importance to physical objects. In particular, the professional concept of emphasizing the basics over the last and emphasizing the fundamentals and suppressing the last is that business is regarded as the last business, and businessmen are despised, so that commercial activities lose their legitimate moral rationality, and goodwill naturally loses suitable social soil and conditions. In Confucianism, although there is an admonition that "if a person does not have faith, it is difficult to stand", there is a profound concept of "words do not have to be believed, deeds do not have to be fruitful, but where righteousness lies", and "righteousness" rebukes "faith". As a result, "trust" can only develop in an isolated metaphysical domain, and trustworthiness is also limited to the narrow social relationship of "sticking a knife in the ribs for friends", and the outward extension path of combining reputation and commercial activities is blocked. The "righteousness" here can be understood as universal social responsibility. Seeking righteousness does not have to be utilitarian, and there is no need to care about the efficacy of actions. The popular behavioral landscape nowadays is when a person sacrifices the interests of the state for the benefit of his small group or enterprise, fights for power. He can win moral support. Behaviors that are unreasonable and illegal in a purely personal sense can be recognized, accepted and even appreciated by people once they are transferred to a group, enterprise or a higher level, and have moral legitimacy. This kind of moral outlook has the characteristics of pluralism and relativity that are appropriate for people, time, and places. In the sociological sense, it can be called the moral norms of particularism, which is incompatible with the universalist moral norms required by the modern market economy society. In the name of the interests of large or small groups, the psychology of debt dependence and debt evasion relieve the sense of guilt in terms of ethics and morality. In this way, they can confidently rely on debts, evade debts, and even cancel debts. This is the profound historical and cultural root of why it is difficult for the sense of credibility to be universalized and marketized in China.

At present, business activities have been universally endowed with moral legitimacy and economic rationality by the Chinese people, which not only provides the social and cultural soil for the cultivation and occurrence of the sense of credibility, but also prepares the social and psychological conditions for the construction of the system. However, experience has proved that relying solely on this kind of cultural adjustment to promote the rationalization of behavior and promote the corresponding credit order is undoubtedly quite slow, so it requires a series of institutional innovations through state intervention to accelerate the arrival of the era of commercial civilization. At the same time, as an actor, we should also improve our mental strategy, and insist that commitment is the basic principle that should be followed to win credibility. The reasonableness of demand is also an important principle that should be followed, and the requirements of the credit grantor cannot be made without restraint, and the demand is moderate. I have done a hundred things for others, but one thing has not been done, and the other party is not satisfied, reflecting the psychology of excessive demand. Whether it is a degree of commitment or a moderate demand, it is an extremely necessary and extremely important mental order for the establishment of a market economic order.

Dealing with the concept of survival rationality is quite complex. The diversity of the actual state of existence makes the survival value orientation have the possibility of a variety of choices. From this point of view, any value choice of people has its rationality and social basis, and constitutes the basis for the legitimacy of behavior. It can be deduced from this that the existence of corruption, counterfeiting, and other behaviors and phenomena has its rationality, which will lead to the arbitrariness of value choice, and theoretically deny the possibility that value choice is subject to higher-level requirements. Although the characteristic of value choice lies in determining a certain choice according to the diversity of value goals and the diversity of value goal combination models, the essence and essence of survival rationality lies in determining the core value and leading value of survival, and its connotation is that no matter what state of survival it is, it should maintain a high degree of confidence, determination and high morale, and not give up the pursuit of the most beautiful state, and any factor that destroys harmony is undesirable. It is necessary to be good at removing and eliminating the influence of undesirable factors, and to be good at eliminating and resolving all kinds of antagonism and tension that may arise in the process of survival. Survival rationality has its own unique internal evolutionary logic, external social standards and scales. The improvement, sublimation, and realization of survival rationality is an infinite process. Survival rationality, on the one hand, has its own independent and broad space for free activities, showing its own characteristics; On the other hand, at any specific stage and state of human existence and development, the sublimation and realization of survival rationality must be limited by strict subjective and objective conditions. It is in the process of successfully preventing and resolving the existential crisis that the survival rationality matures through dynamic accumulation and enrichment, which reflects the process of human beings constantly overcoming the limitations of rationality and realizing the fullness and enrichment of rationality.

The rationality of survival has distinctive characteristics of the times. At the present stage in our country, there are three types of survival rationality: "thinking about change when you are poor", "being content and always happy, not seeking Chang'an", "thinking about the source when you get rich, thinking about progress after getting rich", among them, "thinking about change when you are poor" and "thinking about progress after being rich" are the best expressions of survival rationality in the two extreme states of survival. The bottom of society is a moral bonanza and a source that can provide spiritual motivation for life struggle, while the rich have historically been suspected of immorality, and the rich often use profligacy and charity to relieve moral guilt and psychological pressure. In ancient China, the level of agricultural productivity was low, and the ability of small farmers to conquer nature was very low. In the past, there were only idols of loyalty and filial piety, but there has never been a wealthy businessman who has become the object of worship. However, from the point of view of the development of the times, thinking about progress while being rich is more significant than thinking about change when it is poor, and it has the characteristics of transcending oneself. It is precisely in terms of ideology and theory that we lack the spiritual nourishment of how to make the rich think ahead. In the context of the rationalization and legalization of the pursuit of getting rich, the technical guidance of the strategies, means, and concepts that are popular in the cultural market and the exhortation from the ideological field on the requirements of morality and law in the process of getting rich are difficult to achieve satisfactory results in the promotion and restraint of the behavior and process of getting rich. The way out lies in the consciousness of the rich. (To be continued......)
