Open publisher page 0 citations

Abstract

As important part of reaching Mind Transformation,the wisdom of Zhuangzi's I lose myselfcontains lots of rich contents,such as that one should surpass self- limitations,transcend intuition,being superior to right or wrong or criticisms,so as to free and empty his mind,trying his best to make himself an empty boat,all of which leads to a integration with Tao in a realm of wandering in absolute freedom,leaning on nothing,absence of subjects. What's worthy of extra attention is that the wisdom of Zhuangzi's I lose my Mindis amazingly in consistency with the theory- leaning on nothing to reach ethereal clean mindBudda advocates. Both goals are to remind human being of that in order to be back to the perfect,clean Tao Heart or Budda Nature. He shouldn't be obsessed with himself,either physical body,materials richness,power,nor vanity fame,but to follow the nature course of events,and leave your personal will aside,endeavor to reveal truth and do good deed,otherwise it is inevitable for him to feel like being in a sea of bitterness and experience endless fatigue of life and deathwithout a way out.
