Abstract

One of the philosophical meanings of Oneness of Heaven and Man is that Nature is regarded as the origin of all the beings including human beings,and the intrinsic goodness constitutes the value source of the harmonious world which man pursues.The second philosophical implication is that the significance and intrinsic value of natural lives should be advanced and realized by man.The third one is that the life mood of all-things-as-one exists in human beings,and one should respect the diversity of all beings.The fourth one holds that the lofty morality of being not arrogant for one's achievement of Nature should be followed;while human beings approach Nature,Nature should be invited to enter man's life.The solution to the question of global survival should be guided by the values of life integrity,which is the most important modern value of Oneness of Heaven and Man.
