善念的產生與人類的行為運作有著極大的關聯性,舉凡科學、文學、哲學、宗教、藝術等,儘皆以闡述人本性善的理念為原則。 人類的智慧有別於其他的物種,所以會不斷的求精進,於此過程中,淘汰的法則已然確立,且如同齒輪般的並軌轉動著。淘汰就等同於犧牲,為求整體的進步與發展犧牲部分的小我本來就無法避免,難道這也稱為「善」,還是脫去糖衣後真實的呈現。 「物競天擇、適者生存」,這冷酷無情的真理揭示了人為求立足而相互吞噬的現實面,極盡醜陋,善念蕩然無存。 在人類的歷史,惡是不被讚揚傳頌的。但駝鳥心態終究無法抹滅它的存在性,而且,負面的思維具有多重潛伏義涵的特性,每個人皆有屬於自己的一套美學觀並且獨立在運作。在佛教中,對人而言,所謂的「惡」,乃是由人自身中產生的慾望,也就是自我,自我意念的消長本來就與外在客觀因素的壓力有關,每一個時代的社會結構都是當時人們的心理寫照,都有它特殊的偏見和它心靈上的病態,也即是說,慾望的發展遭其限制與壓抑,為了這個原因,人必然都需要帶有補償性的調節。此時負向意念的美學應用已然超越藝術或非藝術本質的問題,而是在尋求一種對峙,企圖與偽善的現實一較長短。 當人發覺所崇拜的「神」其實只是一種體制,一種維持「善」況的體制,人類或多或少總有反體制的潛意識蠢動著,於是「惡魔」便誕生了,一個具體化的負向意念,一個與真正的敵人戰鬥,卻被打壓迫害的英雄。 惡的根源來自於人性本質的「潛層面」,其暗藏的爆發力與弔詭不明的想像空間令人生懼,卻又有著某種甘美誘人的聲音。本論文探究惡完形前的負向意念為其主要的論述方向,並且將人類負向美學的呈現作一整理歸結和延伸。
The generation of good concept links greatly with the exercise of human behaviors; science, literature, philosophy, religion, and art, in principle, all illustrate the good concept of human beings. Human intelligence differs from that of other species and we have been striving for improvement. During this process, law of elimination has been well established, evolving like gears of a machine. Elimination means to be sacrificed and when we look for the progress and development of the public, certainly a small portion of self shall be inevitably sacrificed. Is this also a good concept or is it an uncovered truth? The cold, hard truth, “Survival of the Fittest,” indicates that in order to survive, people compete fiercely with each other by every mean and no sign of good concept has been shown. In human history, evil has never been praised. An ostrich mindset cannot eliminate the existence of the evil. On the other hand, negative concept has multiple implying characteristics and every one has his own aesthetic perspective that functions independently. Buddhism holds the belief that “evil” originates from self desire and it is part of oneself. The change of self concept naturally ties to the stress perceived from external objective factors. Social structure in each era has reflected to mindsets of people and there have been prejudice and mindset problems. In another word, the development of desire has been restricted and compressed and because of this reason, we all need to have complementary adjustment. Consequently, the application of negative concept to aesthetics is an issue beyond the nature art or non-art, and it is an attempt to look for the balance with conflicts and being real good in reality. When people find the “god” they have been worshiping is only a system that tries to maintain “good” condition, they to some degree will attempt to fight the system and that marks the birth of “evil,” a concrete negative concept and a hero who has been compressed although he has been fighting with the enemy in great efforts. Evil roots itself in the “subconscious” human nature, the implied potential and ambiguous imagination room in paradox frightens us and at the same time, it has the most enticing and charming voice to greet us. This paper discusses the discourse development of negative concept before it is completely formed and concludes and extends the discussion to the aesthetic expression of negative concept of humans.
