 Regarding of the origin of mankind, there are two philosophies: one said: “Evolution”, one said “Creationism”. First, “Evolution” has a lot of philosophical discourse at all time. Let talk about Chinese great national hero Wen TianXiang wrote <Zhengqi Ge>. 16 year ago, that was in 1999, I started research and promoting <Zhengqi Ge>. I tried to look for the references, but could only find very litter information , as Chinese Text books of both universities in China and Taiwan, their interpretations to <Zhengqi Ge> are just in the moral and national integrity level only, some of the verse explanations are not proper…..until I had read the test paper of 21 year old Wen TianXiang, which he has passed in the imperial examination and became Number One Scholar. The paper with 11,651 words called <Yu Shi Ce>, then I realized that Wen TianXiang is not only a great national hero, great poet but also a distinguished philosopher, his <Zhengqi Ge> implies “Vitality Monism” philosophy. Let me translated <Zhengqi Ge> the first ten as follows: In between heaven and earthflows the air of righteousness, It nurtures and enriches all kinds of entities, On earth it shapes the mountains and rivers, In heaven it transforms into the sun, the moon and the stars, In human beings there is an air of greatness, It fills the whole universe, When a country settles in serenity, It is the people with the air of righteousness who serve and contribute towards the the peacefulness of the nation, When a nation is disrupted with upheavals the virtues of faith and strength emerge in them, These heroes left behind them tracks of greatness to be engraved in the historical records of the nation. In <Zhengqi Ge>, Wen TianXiang has mentioned about Vitality(Qi) is similar to 2500 years ago , the Chinese great philosopher Lao Zi wrote “Dao De Jing” Chapter 42, “The Dao produced one; one produced two; two produced three; three produced to all of things.” What was “Dao” mean by Lao Zi? “Dao De Jing” Chapter 25 has his statement: Before the universe was born, There was something in the Chaos of the heaven, It stands alone and empty, Solitary and unchanging, It is ever present and secure, It may be regarded as the mother of the Universe , Because I do not know it’s name, I call it the “Dao” The early of last century with the Chinese people great revolutionary Sun Yat Sen in his monographs “Jiang Guo Fang Lue” saying “When the universe first born, Taiji move the electron, electronic condensate formed elements, physical elements combined together, formed into the earth. (ref. <Sun Yat Sen Wen Cui > Pg. 246) The ancient Greeks philosopher Kant and recent great thinker Hegel, were suggested the beginning of the universe to “Chaos”. 100 years ago, the European German thinkers Philosopher Friedrich Engles’s “Dialectics of Nature” paper, Introduction wrote: “Hot air mass from the rotation, after cooling and shrinkage, then its outermost stars ring of galaxy developed into end of the boundary of our universe island which consists numerous solar systems with suns……as it further cooling down, ahard shell layer of the planet was formed and when its surface accumulated certain amount of water, protoplasts of life formed……. an amorphous protein to the formation of nucleus and membrane, formed the first cell………then developed into such a vertebrate, on the object , it reached to the self-awareness of nature, it is people. (Ref. “The Complete Works of Max and Engels” Volume 20, P371 to P379). From the above, Wen TianXiang’s “Vitality” ; Lao Zi’s “Dao”; Sun Yet Sen’s concept of the Universe; and western Kant, Hegal’s “Chaos” are in the same way. My book “Zhong Hua Zhi Hun” have elaborated as follows: “Vitality”; “Dao”; “Chaos” ; “In the hot air mass from the rotation” in the self-movement formed the universe, universe in constant movement, formed Galaxies, formed the earth, earth and nature through millions of years of evolution, created life by a single cell as well as with thinking ability human being. (My book “Zhong Hua Zhi Hun” P26 – P33). Second, “Creationism” “Creationism” said God created man. I think regardless of Creationism or Evolution, we had no choice but to admit, accept as follows: Human from the date of birth on earth, Earth with her body grow out of large tracts of forests producing Oxygen for human breath; Earth with her milk – river, lake & sea, pure water supply to human drink; Earth with her body to grow food, vegetables, fruits provide human stave off hunger; Earth with her body growth cotton to make clothing supply human to cover up body and against cold; Earth stored her body in petroleum , natural gas, coal, gold, silver, copper, iron, tin, aluminium, lead , titanium, uranium, tungsten, a variety of mineral resources, supply human wide range of requirements. Therefore , Earth is the great mother of mankind, with no thought for a reward! The relationship between man and earth is not just living in the “Global Village” , but blood compatibility of the mother-child relationship. However, as the son of the earth, how the mankind treated the earth mother who was born and raised us for thousand years? Human being are unfilial , always forget mother kindness! When human live in primitive societies in transition to farming societies, especially more than 200 years, since invented the steam engine, invented the light, into the industrial society, the world economic development increase rapidly, human greed is endless! Demand to the earth- mother already up to crazy lever, completely ignored the safety of the mother! Large tracts of forest were cut down, the earth less and less vegetation, as well as soil erosion, land desertification more and more serious; follow by the floods, drought, sandstorm, landslides wanton havoc; climate variability, tropical day, severely cold weather happened frequently ,high altitude ozone layer thinning; global climate warming, glaciers of north and south Poles melting; sea level gradually increased; natural disasters continual; underground petroleum , coal, natural gas store in the planet, many minerals become less and less, to maintain human basic survival such as air, water resources, land are suffering from their own emissions of industrial waste gas, industrial sewage, industrial refuse, life emission, domestic refuse, chemical fertilizers, pesticides, plastics and other harmful substances in a large number of erosion damage . Large tracts of the region always surround by heavy haze among high concentrations of PM 2.5, human impossible to breathe safe air, many rivers and lakes are polluted, no longer supply human to drink safety, earth’s co-ordinate and epidemic prevention system carrying heavy loads, as a result of disasters (hurricanes, earth quakes, tsunami), diseases (AIDS, SARS, Mad Cow disease, Avian Flu, H1N1, H7N9, H7N10 influenza) one after another. Today, Global air pollution! Water pollution! Land contamination! Resource depletion! Black and Blue dying mother earth sent to the human suffering pain to whine! Human being on the planet is facing a crisis of life and death! Can be puzzling disturbing local wars among humans on Earth still stretches without a break, terrorism wanton rampage! Between some of the countries, still fighting! Fight! Fight! If humans cannot see their senses danger, cannot unite and make concerted efforts from every country, every Citizen start to saving the planet earth, no matter big or small, rich or poor countries, regardless of royal family, rich or poor people, no one can be survived alone, will perish together! Today the only way to save all of us is to unite human by holding together to overcome our difficulties in order to create a better future! 19th July 2011, the media published: the United Nations will announcement to the world at the same year of late October the world’s population reached 7 billion. I wrote <New Song of Zhengqi>, song to protect mother earth for world peace the next day early morning (20th Oct). The Introduction of my song as follows: United Nations announcement: by late Oct 2011 the population of the planet will be reach 7 billion. In the universe, this tiny blue planet bears 7 billion of lives, everyday how much “clean air”, “clean food, fruits and vegetables” in order to maintain 7 billion of lives safety for the survival, development and reproduction. Human beings are nurturing by earth, she is the mother of mankind. Therefore, human survival on mother earth, regardless of multi races, all are from one common progenitor , a cognate master of fellow brothers and sisters. Urging for 7 billion people in the world, without distinction to race, religion, country, faith, work together to rescue our scarred mother earth, promotes dialogue, stop fighting and war, together, we all hand in hand to resolve for our mother of mankind to live peacefully on the earth to develop and breed progressively. <New Song of Zhengqi> (The song of the Earth mother for world peace ) translation out , including Chinese , English, French, Russian, Spanish, Arabic, German, Japanese, Korean, Malay and Sweden , 11 kinds of language, I hope this song can going the rounds and with the media, network spread and condensing 7 billion compatriots heart! Spread such a word in the world: Where the sunlight, where the water flows through there are Chinese, lived in various countries and regions of the metropolitan speak mandarin and the language of the host countries and to spread the <New Song of Zhenqi>, can use Chinese sing, hopefully can be translated into the language of the host countries to sing! With songs of song cohesion and solidarity each country each region of the brothers and sisters together to save the earth mother! Maintenance of world peach! Four our future generations can have clean air to breathe, clean drinking water, safe food to eat, to let our children can live in peace not war environment. To let mother earth rejuvenation! Hope every earth children filial piety mother to protect mother ‘s duty and responsibility! In this article will check pen, again a little bit to write down my new thinking: Since the birth of human on the earth, after a long period of barbarism and half a period of barbarism, to civilization, human society in thinker, philosopher, social scientist, politician, they thinking, research, pursue, is the fulfillment of human and human society should be how to survive a reasonable under this category. As modern Marx’s “Das Kapital”, “Surplus Value”, “Violent Revolution”, “The Dictatorship of the Proletariat”, “Planned Economy”, Nietzsche’s “Individualism” and the right of every life”, “Market Economy”, Rousseau’s “Social Contract”, Lincoln’s “People, and for the People, by the people” and the Sun according to Lincoln’s though development for “Three People’s principles”, and so on, due to the limited by the degree of time and today is no thinking has studied the relationship between human and the earth to the survival of “The earth is life limit, human only cherish to maintain the earth’s life in order to maintain the peace of human survival development of reproduction” this guiding philosophy proposition. Today, human society has entered the “Information Society”, “Internet” covered the world, the earth is becoming more are more small; distance between people has become increasingly blurred the boundaries of countries and even increasingly (the European Union is an example). The world economy, the sometimes complex mix-and –match, the world and mankind into a kind of new combination. “The human and the earth mother” the new philosophical proposition, social proposition is key in today’s human serious thinking, study hard, to carry out the practice of! Lyrics Description: The Blue planet Mother of mankind 7 billion of people Community solidarity to bear Treasure forest Take care of water sources Care of mineral deposits Love the earth World brothers and sisters Mutually we solidly united Protecting our mother earth Maintenance of world peace Written by Hao Zhi Ben Translated by Kris |
