Cultivation Philosophy is an innovative classic of social science, serving as a guiding beacon committed to redeeming the human soul and advancing human survival and development. Boasting a unique perspective and groundbreaking insights, this work deeply integrates social science theories with practical contradictions and dilemmas. It is a brilliant achievement forged by intense ideological collisions, standing as a paragon of pursuing truth and emancipating the mind in the contemporary era. Categorized as a popular read, a classic on self-cultivation and a philosophical monograph, this 300,000-character, 16-chapter book features distinct dialectics, philosophical depth, innovation, readability, practical relevance and applicability. Compiling more than 200 vivid and profound philosophical stories, it comprehensively and in-depth explores self-cultivation and related theoretical propositions through the approach of “telling stories, analyzing philosophy and discussing reality”, achieving prominence of key points, explaining profound theories in simple terms, conciseness, seeking truth and pragmatism, innovation, balance between positive and negative perspectives, and coherence from beginning to end.
Centered on the core theme of “self-cultivation”, the book delves into three theoretical dimensions: nurturing the mind, cultivating wisdom and fostering virtue. Employing dialectical thinking as its core methodology, it conducts in-depth analysis of a series of pivotal contradictory issues, including nurturing the mind vs. understanding the mind, nurturing the mind vs. life, nurturing the mind vs. fostering virtue, tyranny vs. benevolent governance, kingly way vs. hegemonic way, just path vs. evil path, gentleman vs. petty person, relying on others vs. self-reliance, the strong vs. the weak, governing by humans vs. governing humans, addressing root causes vs. tackling symptoms, self-interest vs. altruism, heavenly principle vs. human way, flexibility and integrity, yin and yang, as well as rewards and punishments. These contradictions are fundamental, crucial, key and universally existing issues for individuals, families and the entire human society, falling into the realm of major philosophical theories. The dialectical understanding of these contradictions can guide people to translate theories into practice, realize dialectical cultivation of the mind, wisdom and virtue, and ultimately grow into individuals equipped with dialectical mindset, wisdom and virtues.
Cultivation Philosophy is committed to promoting fine traditional Chinese culture, actively absorbing advanced global humanistic thoughts, boldly innovating social science theories and persistently pursuing the origin of truth. It guides the public to nurture the mind, cultivate wisdom and foster virtue, enhance emotional quotient, intelligence quotient and moral quotient, strengthen family love, romantic love and friendship, helping people achieve maturity, talent and success. Furthermore, it contributes to building a peaceful, safe and healthy living environment, spreading positive energy and facilitating positive development. By dialectically recognizing, accurately grasping and effectively resolving various contradictions, it strives to propel human society towards harmony and peace. Notably, the book puts forward two original theories—the “Urban Principle” and “Heliocentrism”—offering brand-new ideas to resolve contemporary social contradictions such as idealism, the law of the jungle and hegemonism. It elaborates on the innovative theories from the perspective of “heavenly principle and human way”, leading human society to build a rational humanistic “Great Harmony World”.
The academic weight of this masterpiece has been strongly endorsed by numerous authoritative scholars. Professor Lin Xiaoguang from the Central Party School comments that it “conveys philosophy through stories and enlightens wisdom through dialectics”. Liu Maocai, former president of Sichuan Academy of Social Sciences, praises it for “blazing a new trail for the innovation of Chinese philosophy”. Zhou Dewen, deputy director of the Economic Committee of the Central Committee of the China Association for Promoting Democracy, writes an article titled A Book as Precious as Gold, Prose as Brilliant as Diamonds, noting that it “combines profound ideological depth with warm humanistic care”. Ms. Xu Liyang, a senior media professional and graduate of Beijing Normal University, personally undertakes the Chinese-English mutual translation, laying a solid foundation for the book’s global reach.
