Abstract

Middle can not leave, but it is not possible, in the "moderate" describes this contradiction inherent in open moderate distress. For the golden mean, the only Zhiren Yong three Dade, the middle can be opened. Why exactly is Germany, not the other, constitute the only way to enter the golden mean? This article attempts to ask this question, in a broader perspective in which to be logical to start: moderation is the nature of road, to teach each other accessible form of culture throughout the domain in general, and in the individual's religious activities, open the Realm of the whole, that is, break in the religious activities of the already existing culture throughout the domain, re-open a whole new culture throughout the domain, which is the essence of moderation of internal distress. Provides only moral and real possibilities. In the contradictory discourse of the book of zhongyong, the internal dilemma of zhongyong is displayed: It is the contrary that the Tao of "zhongyong" can only be reached in people's daily life, while it is impossible for individuals actually. As far as " zhongyong "is concerned, the only access to it is the three virtues of 'ren', 'zhi' and 'yong'. 'zhongyong' is the total cultural horizon on the thoroghfare of 'xing', 'dao' and 'jiao' which should be openned in our moral pratice though our virtues of 'zhi', 'ren' and 'yong'
