一念三千、意義意志與生命意義的開展

本文的主旨，是嘗試將弗蘭克的意義意志，與一念三千的一念，互相對照，以探討生命意義與心理健康的關係。對照的範圍涉及幾個方面，包括心性結構、生命意義的義蘊及生命的超越之道。本文發現，儘管所追尋的價值取向有異，意義意志和一念，都是個人靈性生活的嚮導。作為自由自主的現證性主體，它們憑著從眼前現象超拔出來的自覺能力，在與現實世界的互動歷程中，開拓出高度的精神價值，使心靈得以健全發展，獲得豐盛的人生意義。箇中一個重要的關鍵，是將對自我的過分關注，轉向屬於生理與心理之上的超越層面的生命意義，並讓靈魂從其中汲取精神力量。

This paper contrasts Viktor E. Frank's will to meaning and the idea of the single thought as in three thousand realms in a single thought to explore the relationship between the meaning of life and psychological health. This comparison will touch upon two areas: the implications of the structure of the mind and of the meaning of life, as well as the way to transcending life. I suggest that although they pursue different values, the will to meaning and the single thought both provide guideposts to spiritual life. As free and self-directed experiential subjects, they rise above present phenomenon by their awareness. It is through such transcendence that they can open up to higher level of spiritual values, which bring about a comprehensive development of the mind, and an awakening to the richness of life’s meanings. One of the important keys to achieving these transformations is to redirect one's excessive preoccupation with oneself towards the transcendental meanings of life, which exist beyond one's physiological and psychological dimensions, and allow the soul to draw spiritual strength from such meanings.
