Chinese culture and psychology

Chinese culture and psychology

This paper focuses on three areas to expand on Chinese culture and psychology exposition: Wisdom for the Western offer - contact East-West Psychology; was wise to provide inspiration - Chinese culture and Western psychologists; stand in psychology Heart - Integration and Development psychology we had in two years ago, Guangming Daily published Psychology and Chinese culture, a text, from psychology to express our point of view, to analyze the psychology of our Chinese culture meaning, and then play Chinese culture inherent in the spirit and ideas of psychology. So now, with Chinese culture and psychology as the subject, our basic idea is, from our Chinese culture, the term psychology; see us influence of Chinese culture on Western psychology; or should have impact. Because it expressed, is what we should strive for, or what direction we are going to strive for. To this end, we intend to three aspects, to expand our thinking about Chinese culture and psychology: 1, providing for the Western Wisdom - contact East-West Psychology; 2, provided the inspiration for the wise - Chinese Culture and Western psychologists; 3, as psychology soul - the integration and development of a psychology for the West to provide intelligence - contact East-West Psychology.

East - West psychology also known as wisdom of psychology, a Western psychologists oriental culture and psychology of thinking pursuit. Western technology and Eastern wisdom is often heard people analogy, the psychology is concerned, in fact, Western scholars Chinese wisdom fascinating, often inferior to China's psychologists of the West cognitive psychology superstition. Cognitive Psychology in the 1960s, becoming the mainstream of Western academic psychology, however, the significance of psychology and development is often not confined to the academic in control. Not to mention the humanistic psychology has always been an important complement to the Western cognitive psychology, and psychology as the real content of the mainstream development of psychotherapy and psychoanalysis, including mental health and psycho-educational, cognitive psychology has been outside the scope of science involved, has been suffering from the impact of traditional psychoanalysis and psychoanalytic can say, East - West psychology is a new development of modern psychology, is gradually formed an independent field of study or branch . In our understanding, not to emphasize differences between Eastern and Western psychology, Eastern and Western psychology, but is committed to communication and integration of Eastern and Western psychology. Thus, for the development of the field of psychology, we also need to understand if the East-West psychology as a term of psychology, its basic meaning is to make traditional oriental philosophy and psychology of thinking, including Chinese Confucianism, Taoism, Zen; and Indian religion and philosophy of Buddhism and Indian philosophy, Islam, as well as Japan's Shinto and Zen, etc., and the Western psychological theory and practice together. As the East-West psychology of the concept of Western psychology major who was raised, so it is Eastern thought emphasizes traditional learning and understanding as early as the 1960s, the famous American historian of psychology Murphy (G. Murphy) has already started to pay attention Psychology intellectual tradition of the East. With the rise of American humanistic psychology, and human potential movement related to this, Zen and Taoism Eastern spread rapidly in the West. We investigated the late 1970s and 1980s, published in the Personality Psychology monograph, Oriental psychology became one of the compelling new chapter. For example, Hall (Calvin S. Hall) and Lin Che (Gardner Lindzey) in their classic Personality Psychology new time (1978), that due to the growing interest in Eastern thought, we consider it necessary providing content related to the Oriental theory of personality, personality theory and the impact of this discourse of Western psychology. [1] Thus, Hall and later Elitesland specially invited to the emotional intelligence and the famous Oriental psychology Coleman ( D. Goleman), which authored Chapter 10: Oriental psychology in 1996, we as a Fulbright (Fulbright) scholars to the United States to teach Chinese Cultural Psychology, when the horse had with Nebraska Department of Psychology, University of Kirti Kazakhstan. Burke (Gordon Becker) cooperate together for the student speaker Oriental psychology course. Kirti. Burke was one of the first professors to open the Oriental Psychology course at American University. He insisted, meditation There have been more than 20 years, which was once a teacher in the 1960s involved in the establishment of the Monastery of San Francisco, the first large tolerance monk (Dainin Katagiri). In accordance with its original teaching programs, the main contents of this course is India's philosophy and Buddhism, as well as Japan's Shinto and Zen, although he will mention Chinese Confucianism and Taoist philosophy, but not the focus. Thus, our cooperation is also from the Chinese Cultural Psychology as the Oriental mainstream psychology, as well as the main content begins. Teach a whole semester to get satisfactory results. So, we began to invite others to open the Oriental Psychology course at the American University professors, along with discussion of the Oriental psychology of the curriculum and content, as well as Eastern psychology as an independent field of development later, we went once established the first American East - West Department of Psychology, the California Institute of Integration (California Institute of Integral Studies), and is responsible for working with the East-West psychology major 莱朗 (Leland van den Daele) Dr. conduct East - Western psychology, the study;. while Pa Lu Attu (Palo Alto) Beyond Psychology of Sex Research (Institute of Transpersonal Psychology) PhD students are taught Chinese Cultural Psychology.  When these relevant experience of Eastern psychology and Jung's analytical psychology link, we seem to have gained some understanding of the systemic; When we gradually in-depth study of Chinese culture and psychology to understand, East - Western psychology is also increasingly showing two deep meaning for the wise inspiration - Chinese culture and Western psychologists

We had read a Emerson and Chinese Confucianism, the book, it is sigh. Western wise as Emerson, even with the Chinese culture has so intrinsically linked. So we tell ourselves, is so like Emerson, probably because we have this inner close it. We will also see the Leibniz and Chinese Culture monograph, as a master of modern mathematics, the founder of computer theory, could be so keen on China's Book of Changes, and which directly inspired by the same people sigh . Thus, the same story has many. So psychology, too, can be said of the wise men of psychologists such as Carl Jung, as Maslow, as Fromm, all with the Chinese culture has a close contact, are also outspoken inspiration obtained from (a ) Maslow Humanistic Psychology

When Maslow in creating its system of humanistic psychology, he also sketched out - initially thought East West psychology of development. It is in aid of Maslow himself on the basis of Eastern thought, to put forward its self-realization claims. Along with individual potential development of humanistic psychology movement, it is also the introduction of the oriental traditional Zen and meditation (meditation) technology, deeply influenced the development of Western psychology and behavior as early as the 1950s, the people of the the initial formation of the system of humanistic psychology, Maslow had recorded in his diary this way of thinking: Oriental civilization born persons, such as Zen monk and so on, is more harmonious than Western civilization by the emotional self-realization ?. then the answer is probably yes So, Maslow realized: We face a huge challenge in the Eastern and Western civilizations is how to self-realization and inner harmony on the concept of combining [2] in the Hall. Hoffman wrote the biography of Maslow also mentioned by the founder of Gestalt psychology Wertheimer, Maslow accepted the influence of Eastern thought. That was 1942 years ago, after listening Wertheimer Maslow's famous lectures: the existence and behavior. Wertheimer which stressed that Western psychology is that too seriously prejudice target seeking behavior, need to learn Oriental thinkers on human experience, such as no motive game, curiosity, fear, aesthetic pleasure and mystical status and aimless nature of the attention. Wertheimer, this lecture on Maslow's theory of personality is being formed in had a great impact, Hoffman concluded. Meanwhile, Hoffman noted that Maslow then also contacted the literature Chinese Taoist philosophy. Maslow started reading books on Eastern philosophy are discussed, particularly with regard to Chinese Taoist books. [3]

Psychology (Transpersonal Psychology) is the development of humanistic psychology, but also the further development of the East-West Psychology. Maslow in the 1960s, he has proposed a transpersonal psychology concept, and later, in the United States Pa dew. Atul founded the International Institute of Transpersonal Psychology, the Academy is committed to something then became International Centre for Development of 1980 square psychology, Wirth (Rogers N. Walsh), who edited a more mature system of transcendent psychology textbook, named beyond self (Beyond Ego: Transpersonal Dimensions in Psychology ). Therefore, in order to realize human potential, transcendence psychology to integrate Western science and Eastern wisdom. [4] 10 years later, they published a sequel to the book: Beyond Self road (Paths Beyond Ego: The Transpersonal Vision). Fact which reflected precisely what we put forward the Chinese culture combined heart and mind of Tao, and the importance of Heaven realm (two) Jung and Analytical Psychology

Swiss psychoanalyst Carl Jung, psychology and the whole field of humanities and social sciences in the twentieth century has outstanding contributions to the character, and his outstanding contributions to fully reflect the significance and influence of Chinese culture. In his autobiography, Memories. Dream thinking, he had a stone in their childhood meditation on the psychological development of their important beginning, Jung later learned that it was his fate with the road, a spiritual sense and communicate. Unlike many Western wise men like Jung to be known as the butterfly Tao in Zhuangzi always yearn for the last page in his autobiography, has more than 80-year-old Jung, heart feeling that: I said: 'Everyone is out, the only Wudu ignorant', 'crowd hee hee, such as Tai Lao enjoy, such as stage I alone parked Come spring, it is not Katherine; chaotic chaotic Xi, such as infants are not children; numerous Xi. , without the return. 'This is what I feel at this time of Laozi is a model with a transcendent perceptive, he was able to experience the value and overall experience to consistency. So, I at the time of his old age, willing Originally return to its own existence, return to that sense of being eternal and unknown. [5] This is Jung's autobiography conclusion, therefore, we can easily see, Jung and the channel through internal communication Jung sinologist Richard Wilhelm, to fully experience the essence of Chinese culture Yun, he was such a profound culture deeply shocked. Carl Jung once said:  Book of Changes in Chinese culture contains the spirit and soul; common pour thousands of years China's great sage, lasting and fresh, people still understand it, to show the significance of infinite and infinite enlightenment. [6] This is Jung for the Book of Changes understanding, as well as its for the Book of Changes in the expression of emotion. Jung said, No one like me, born Wilhelm had the honor to work with, and the Book of Changes predictability force people to make a direct spiritual communication, could not ignore the fact that here we have contacted into an 'Archimedean point', and this 'Archimedean point', enough to shake our mental attitude basis for the West.  [6] This Archimedean point is Jung for the Book of Changes acceptance and understanding, and this Archimedean point, it is also the key to the development of Jungian psychology, Jung himself had had this expression: Wilhelm lifetime engaged in the work, for me, is so important and has value because he explained to me and I have been confirmed in the pursuit, in thinking, in yearning, and in engaged in research and stuff.  Jung said, Wilhelm's work brings us genes of Chinese culture, a kind enough to bring us to change our outlook fundamentally Chinese cultural genes. [6] This is the work of Wilhelm Jung for understanding, but also Jung's yearning for Chinese culture. Therefore, in this sense, Jung will be referred to their own Wilhelm students actually Chinese culture students. By Wilhelm, Jung contacted and accepted the influence of Chinese culture and gain a full inspiration (c) extensive influence of Chinese culture

Jungian psychology wise as is well deserved, but he is also a full draw inspiration from Chinese culture and wisdom; Maslow, too, he thought the doctrine of human psychology, and even raised his transcendence psychology, are all permeated with inspiration from Chinese culture traces. In addition, the impact of Chinese culture on western Western psychology and even psychologists are extensive. We would like to select a few familiar Western psychologists for a comprehensive description of Maslow and Carl Jung and Fromm also has influence, has published Zen and psychoanalysis, it was his from the East Get inspired practical experience; which Fromm Taoist personality and ideas longing to the people left a deep impression. He himself once wrote in his biography to translate into Chinese, Mr. Shizhao letter, expressing longing for Chinese culture, its general content of the letter is this [7]:
