审美与功利(5)
因此我们可以得出结论：功利的眼光不能为我们带来永恒的快乐，为此我们必须学会采用审美的眼光，说到审美，我首先会想到艺术，如美术、音乐、舞蹈和戏剧，确切地说，我们在惯性思维的影响下会将艺术跟美、科学跟真、道德跟善联系在一起，当我们采用功利的思维方式我们就摆脱不掉主客体二元分裂：我们将自己看成是主体、将所有我们面对的事物看作是客体，为了得到声望、财富和所有好处，我们不得不掌握大千世界万事万物的规律：自然律、人类社会的规律和历史发展的规律，之后让万事万物为我们人类所用，（为了管理各式各样的人，我们甚至需要掌握人性，只有这样才不至于在情况变得复杂时增加成本）。因为大千世界太复杂了、我们人类的智慧太有限了以至于不能掌握住那个终极规律，在很多情况下，主体不仅不能让客体扮演一个乖孩子的角色，反而常常受制于它们，所以这种思维方式的结果就是一种焦虑感。
Aesthetic way of thinking is just a good recipe to tackle the problem. As it is super-utilitarian and has nothing to do with desire, it not only bridged that dualistic division, but to some extent dispelled the feeling of anxiety. I can still remember the scene I was playing video games in my early years: I totally submerged into it as if I was that small figure on the screen. His life and death completely lie in my hands. As if possessed by a devil, I was delirious with joy when he defeated the boss and went through the level successfully; I got frustrated when he was given an awful beating up by enemies; My heart was thumping when he is in danger and I wept for joy at the scene he reunited with his lover. I can also remember the first time I brought home the DVD of Rurouni Kenshin—a classic Japanese animation. The whole afternoon passed in a flash and it is already dark outside when I came to myself. As if my spirit left my body and entered another world, I was so absorbed in characters and the vivid story of it that I would not care even if an earthquake happened at my feet. Notwithstanding there were all kinds of intractable people and things pestered me and made my life a complete mess in real life, it seemed as if I had a dream, and having fled into the fantasy world, I broke loose from the annoyance and got the pleasure never experienced before when I was playing games and watching animations, and that is perhaps the so-called aesthetic activity. If video game and animation could only be counted as cheap aesthetic activities which any untrained man is able to lose himself in it, fine art and music is really advanced ones. You may be tired of all kinds of games, find it difficult to be enthusiastic about them anymore and feel all the cartoons of the same pattern and it is a waste of time watching them, but you can always draw pleasure from the "advanced aesthetic activities" when you go a bit deeper into any kind of them and have a fresh feeling when you turn your attention to another genre and school. When you are listening to a symphony or enjoying an oil painting, you can enter a state of "forgetting yourself and the opposing object, blending emotion with scenery". As it is super-utilitarian, we never concern for personal gains and losses when we look into everything for beauty. For the reason that there is no need for us to pay any price for it, the feeling of upset will never rise in our hearts during the process.
